Intraband transitions around 1.5 mum are studied in PbSe quantum dots at room temperature. Femtosecond pump-probe measurements reveal induced absorption by photoexcited carriers up to higher energy levels and its relaxation. A dominant decay component has ...
The DNA binding domain (DBD) is the most mutated region of p53 in tumors and has proven to be relatively resistant to the generation of specific antibodies. Template assembled synthetic peptide (TASP) synthesis of a peptide derived from the DBD creates a h ...
We present the first detailed angle-resolved photoemission evidence that there are two types of carriers that contribute to the photoemission superconducting condensate in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x. Our data indicate that both itinerant and somewhat localized normal ...
A mathematical model based on conditional probability distributions is proposed for solute yield response to rainfall impulses at the basin scale. Solutes enter the mass balance because of sorption processes between fixed phases and the carrier flow. The p ...
Picosecond transient reflectometry and dynamic grating techniques have been applied to investigate the perpendicular and parallel transport of optically excited carriers in strained-layer Si0.83Ge0.17/Si superlattices. We present results of the carrier amb ...
a-Si:H i-layers were deposited at different substrate temperatures and plasma excitation frequencies, while the other deposition parameters were kept constant. These layers were characterised by measuring the intrinsic mechanical stress and the defect dens ...
We report on the observation of negatively- and positively-charged excitons in the photoluminescence spectra of V-groove quantum wires. The. charged exciton binding energy increases with the strength of the quantum confinement. We demonstrate that fluctuat ...
In a molecular semiconductor, the carrier is dressed with a polarization cloud that we treat as a quantum field of Frenkel excitons coupled to it. The consequences of the existence of this electronic polaron on the dynamics of an extra charge in a material ...

We have studied the influence of Co and Ni doping on the electronic band structure and the transport properties of high-temperature superconductors. The doping has dramatic effects on both the normal and the superconducting state. Upon doping the residual ...
