Temperature dependence of the conductivity in large-grained boron-doped ZnO films

Christophe Ballif, Arvind Shah, Sylvie Faÿ

The temperature dependence of the conductivity is investigated as a function of boron doping in large-grained, degenerate polycrystalline ZnO films prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition. Carrier transport in undoped and lightly doped films is ...

Molecular dynamics modeling of cavity strengthening in irradiated iron

Seyed Masood Hafez Haghighat

One of the most important problems in the ﬁeld of nuclear industry is the relationship between irradiation-induced damage and the resulting induced mechanical response of the target metal and in particular ferritic base steels. In this work molecular dynam ...

Leptogenesis beyond the limit of hierarchical heavy neutrino masses

Steve Blanchet

We calculate the baryon asymmetry of the Universe in thermal leptogenesis beyond the usual lightest right-handed (RH) neutrino dominated scenario (N_1DS) and in particular beyond the hierarchical limit (HL), M_1 < M_2 < M_3, for the RH neutrino mass spec ...

Time-Resolved Photodynamics of Triangular-Shaped Silver Nanoplates

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Callegari, Camilla Bonati, Luigi Bonacina

The authors measured the ultrafast response of triangular silver nanoparticles upon femtosecond excitation of their plasmon resonance. After a fast electron relaxation, the signature of a bimodal mech. vibration of the particle is apparent as a spectral mo ...

Bringing the human arm reachable space to a virtual environment for its analysis

Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado

Human reaching in a 3D environment is an interesting matter of research due to its application to workplace or vehicle-interior design. We introduce a 3D environment where a virtual human performs reaching tasks over 3D objects in the world. This environme ...

Probing hot-electron dynamics at surfaces with a cold scanning tunneling microscope

Klaus Kern, Harald Brune

We report on a novel approach to measure the phase relaxation length and femtosecond lifetime of hot quasiparticles on metal surfaces. A 4 K scanning tunneling microscope has been used to study the spatial decay of interference patterns in the local densit ...

Exciton formation rates in GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs quantum wells

Vincenzo Savona, Paolo Schwendimann

A theoretical investigation of the exciton formation process from free carriers in a single GaAs/Al1-xGaxAs quantum well is presented. The mechanism for the formation processes is provided by the interaction of the electrons and holes with phonons. The con ...

Resistive Toroidal Stability of Internal Kink Modes in Circular and Shaped Tokamaks

The linear resistive magnetohydrodynamical stability of the n = 1 internal kink mode in tokamaks is studied numerically. The stabilizing influence of small aspect ratio [Holmes et al., Phys. Fluids B 1, 788 (1989)] is confirmed, but it is found that shapin ...
