We present a continuum theory to describe elastically induced phase transitions between coherent solid phases. In the limit of vanishing elastic constants in one of the phases, the model can be used to describe fracture on the basis of the late stage of the Asaro-Tiller-Grinfeld instability. Starting from a sharp inte…

We consider the distribution of an electric field in YBCO-coated conductors for a situation in which the DC transport current is forced into the copper stabilizer due to a weak link -- a section of the superconducting film with a critical current less than the transport current. The electric field in the metal substra…

Connecting lumped circuit elements in a conventional circuit is usually accomplished by conducting wires that act as conduits for the conduction currents with negligible potential drops. More challenging, however, is to extend these concepts to optical nanocircuit elements. Here, following our recent development of op…

The release of a gas limited by surface desorption, or by diffusion from the bulk of spherical pebbles is revisited. A method is proposed to identify the release limiting process, by comparing a partial temperature ramp, up to slightly beyond the release peak, followed by a rapid temperature drop, to a second, full re…

Coherent oscillations associated with spin precessions were observed in ultrafast optical experiments on ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As films. Using a complete theoretical description of the processes by which light couples to the magnetization, values for the anisotropy constants and the spin stiffness were unambiguously de…

Alkali halide (100) crystal surfaces are poorly wetted by their own melt at the triple point. We carried out simulations for NaCl(100) within the well tested BMHFT model potential. Calculations of the solid-vapor, solid-liquid and liquid-vapor free energies showed that solid NaCl(100) is a non-melting surface, and exp…

With paying special attention to the divergence in the compressibility $κ$, we study the Coulombic screening in alkali metals to find singular long-range fluctuations in the electronic polarization originating from this divergence. As a consequence of this singularity, we predict the decrease of the equilibration dist…

Iron, cobalt and nickel nanoparticles, grown in the gas phase, are known to arrange in chains and bracelet-like rings due to the long-range dipolar interaction between the ferromagnetic (or super-paramagnetic) particles. We investigate the dynamics and thermodynamics of such magnetic dipolar nanoparticles for low dens…

We studied the circular polarization and angular dependences of the magneto-photoluminescence spectra of the free A-exciton 1S state in wurtzite ZnO at T = 5 K. The circular polarization properties of the spectra clearly indicate that the top valence band has Gamma_7 symmetry. The out-of-plane component of the magneti…

The paper studies the modes of vibrations of a lattice with rod-like particles, in a continuum model where the sites of the lattice are the connections among strings and rigid rods. In these structures then, translational and rotational degrees of freedom are strongly coupled. We will discuss in particular two-dimensi…

We report a unified set of emulsion polymerization processes for the synthesis of a series of spherical and nonspherical magnetite−polystyrene (Fe 3 O 4 −PS) composite colloids with the superparamagnetic cores concentrically or eccentrically positioned inside polystyrene shells. The interfacial tension between the ino…

BACKGROUND: Drug delivery and penetration into neoplastic cells distant from tumor vessels is critical for the effectiveness of solid tumor chemotherapy. We hypothesized that 10- to 20-nm nanoassemblies of phospholipids containing doxorubicin would improve the drug's penetration, accumulation, and antitumor activity.…

Further, the influence of polytetrafluor…

White‐light emission was achieved by activating yttrium oxyorthosilicate with two rare‐earth elements, (Y 1− m − n Ce m Tb n ) 2 SiO 5 . Ce 3+ strongly absorbs at λ ex =358 nm and produces a broad, mainly blue emission with a tail that extends out to 600 nm (orange), and transfers energy efficiently to Tb 3+ , which p…
