The local structure of the low-temperature ordered phase of the negative thermal expansion (NTE) material has been investigated by reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modeling of neutron total scattering data. We obtain, for the first time, quantitative measurements of the extent to which the and polyhedra move as rigid units,…

We report indications of a phase transition in carbonaceous MgB2 above 9 GPa at 300 K after stress relaxation by laser heating. The transition was detected using Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The observed changes are consistent with a second-order structural transition involving a doubling of the unit cell…

Exchange anisotropy in ferromagnet/antiferromagnet (FM/AF) films is usually introduced along the cooling field or FM magnetization direction. Here we investigate the dependence of the exchange anisotropy, loop bifurcation, and reversal mechanism on the cooling field direction using vector magnetometry. Three types of…

Doped semiconductors are intrinsically homogeneous media. However, by applying an external magnetic field that has a spatially periodic variation, doped semiconductors can behave extrinsically like conventional photonic crystals. We show this possibility theoretically by calculating the photonic band structures of a d…

We investigated photoluminescence (PL) from reliable and reproducible Sb-doped p-type ZnO films grown on n-Si (100) by molecular-beam epitaxy. Well-resolved PL spectra were obtained from completely dopant-activated samples with hole concentrations above 1.0×1018cm−3. From free electron to acceptor transitions, accepto…

Continuous-wave, time-integrated, and time-resolved photoluminescence experiments are used to study the excitonic optical recombinations in wurtzite $\mathrm{Zn}\mathrm{O}∕{\mathrm{Zn}}_{0.78}{\mathrm{Mg}}_{0.22}\mathrm{O}$ quantum wells of varying widths. By comparing experimental results with a variational calculati…

New hydrophobic, tetradentate nitrogen heterocyclic reagents, 6,6'-bis-(5,6-dialkyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-2,2'-bipyridines (BTBPs) have been synthesised. These reagents form complexes with lanthanides and crystal structures with 11 different lanthanides have been determined. The majority of the structures show the lanth…

Bring in the substitute! Zn1−xCoxO nanowires are prepared by using a solution-based synthetic route. Structural, optical, and spectroscopic characterizations indicate that the cobalt atoms substitute the zinc cations in the host lattice as a result of the cobalt doping (the picture shows prepared Co-doped ZnO nanowire…

Recently, we demonstrated that PbSe nanocrystal quantum dots can efficiently produce multiple electron-hole pairs (excitons) in response to a single absorbed photon. To address the generality of this carrier-multiplication phenomenon to other materials, we perform a comparative study of multiexciton generation in PbSe…

We report on the discovery of a novel triangular phase regime in the system La1-xSrxMnO3 by means of electron spin resonance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. This phase is characterized by the coexistence of ferromagnetic entities within the globally paramagnetic phase far above the magnetic ordering temperat…

Epitaxial strain can substantially enhance the spontaneous polarizations and Curie temperatures of ferroelectric thin films compared to the corresponding bulk materials. In this Letter we use first principles calculations to calculate the effect of epitaxial strain on the spontaneous polarization of the ferroelectrics…

Work materials experience large strains, high strain rates, high temperatures, and complex loading histories in machining. The problem of how to accurately model dynamic material behavior, including the adiabatic effect is essential to understand a hard machining process. Several conventional constitutive models have…

While the principal features of the exchange bias between a ferromagnet and an antiferromagnet are believed to be understood, a quantitative description is still lacking. We show that interface spin disorder is the main reason for the discrepancy of model calculations versus experimental results. Taking into account s…

Thermally poled fused silica glass was characterized with second-harmonic optical and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that, along with the creation of a second-order nonlinearity (SON) layer under the anode surface, a layer of nanometer-sized crystalline particles exists near the anode surface. Its spatial…
