The NiO4 plaquettes in La2NiO4.17, a cousin of the hole-doped high-temperature superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4, have been studied by Ni-61 NMR in 14 T in a single crystal enriched in Ni-61. Doped and undoped plaquettes are discriminated by the shift of the NMR ...
Light scattered by a dielectric object when it is trapped in the field of a plasmonic nanostructure is studied theoretically and experimentally using both dielectric spheres and S. cerevisiae cells. A dramatic enhancement of the scattered light is observed ...
Soft-x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the L2,3 edge of the iron center in bovine Hb and hemin under physiol. conditions is reported for the first time. Spectra of the same compds. in solid form are presented for comparison. Striking differences in the elec ...
The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) challenges conventional photovoltaics with its potential for low-cost prodn. and its flexibility in terms of color and design. Transient absorption spectroscopy is widely used to unravel the working mechanism of DSCs. A ...
A numerical study of the influence of disorder in semiconductors on spin-Rabi nutation observed with pulsed electrically or optically detected magnetic-resonance techniques (pEDMR and pODMR, respectively) is presented. It is shown that transient nutation s ...
We report highly sensitive de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect measurements on a high-mobility two-dimensional electron system in an AlAs quantum well. Here two valleys are occupied forming a pseudospin system. At 400 mK, the dHvA effect shows pronounced osci ...
The radical cation salt, ET2MnCuN(CN)(2), [ET=bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene] with an unusual three-dimensional anionic polymeric network is studied by x-ray diffraction, static susceptibility measurements, and electron spin resonance (ESR) at ...
We have studied by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy the ordered XCu2 surface alloys formed by X=Sb and Bi on a Cu(111) substrate. We found clear analogies with the corresponding XAg2 alloys formed by the same elements on Ag(111). The electronic st ...
The electronic band structure and Fermi surface of ZrTe3 was determined by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Several bands and a large part of the Fermi surface are found to be split by 100-200 meV into two parallel dispersions. Calculations of th ...
An Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) study of glasses and magnetically dilute powders of [Gd(DTPA)(H2O)]2−, [Gd(DOTA)(H2O)]-, and macromolecular Gd-P792 complexes was carried out at X-, Q-band and 240 GHz DTPA=diethylenetriaminepentaacetato; DOTA=1,4,7 ...
