Condensate-Free Superfluid Induced by the Frustrated Proximity Effect

Since the discovery of superfluidity in He-4 and Landau's phenomenological theory, the relationship between Bose condensation and superfluidity has been intensely debated. He-4 is known by now to be both superfluid and condensed at low temperature, and mor ...

Cavity Optomechanics: Cooling of a Micromechanical Oscillator into the Quantum Regime

Tobias Kippenberg, Albert Schliesser, Emanuel Gavartin, Stefan Alexander Weis

Using optical sideband cooling, a micromechanical oscillator is cooled to a phonon occupancy below 10 phonons, corresponding to a probability of finding it in its quantum ground state more than 10% of the time. ...

Lattice symmetries and regular magnetic orders in classical frustrated antiferromagnets

We consider some classical and frustrated lattice spin models with global O(3) spin symmetry. No general analytical method to find a ground state exists when the spin dependence of the Hamiltonian is more than quadratic (i.e., beyond the Heisenberg model) ...

3.4 GHz composite thin film bulk acoustic wave resonator for miniaturized atomic clocks

Paul Muralt, Alvaro Artieda

Triple layer SiO2/AlN/SiO2 composite thin film bulk acoustic wave resonators (TFBARs) were studied for applications in atomic clocks. The TFBAR's were tuned to 3.4 GHz, corresponding to half the hyperfine splitting of the ground state of rubidium Rb-87 ato ...

Absorption Spectra and Excited State Energy Levels of the N719 Dye on TiO2 in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell Models

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Filippo de Angelis

We have investigated the absorption spectrum and the alignment of ground and excited state energies for the prototypical N719 Ru(II) sensitizer adsorbed on an extended TiO2 model by means of high level DFT/TDDFT calculations. The calculated and experimenta ...

Relativistic effects in spectroscopy and photophysics of heavy-metal complexes illustrated by spin–orbit calculations of [Re(imidazole)(CO)3(phen)]+

Majed Chergui

Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) is an essential factor in photophysics of heavy transition metal com- plexes. By enabling efficient population of the lowest triplet state and its strong emission, it gives rise to a very interesting photophysical behavior and und ...

Fermi-surface reconstruction by stripe order in cuprate superconductors

Johan Juul Chang

The origin of pairing in a superconductor resides in the underlying normal state. In the cuprate high-temperature superconductor YBa2Cu 3Oy (YBCO), application of a magnetic field to suppress superconductivity reveals a ground state that appears to break t ...

Characterization of the Interface Properties and Processes in Solid State Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Employing a Perylene Sensitizer

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

A perylene sensitizer, ID176, was recently reported which performs much better in solid state dye-sensitized solar cells than in those using liq. electrolytes with iodide/tri-iodide as the redox couple. Here, a characterization is presented of the sensitiz ...

Destruction of valence-bond order in a S=1/2 sawtooth chain with a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya term

Frédéric Mila, Ioannis Rousochatzakis

A small value of the spin gap in quantum antiferromagnets with strong frustration makes them susceptible to nominally small deviations from the ideal Heisenberg model. One such perturbation, the anisotropic Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction, is an imp ...
