We report on the fabrication of Ti:sapphire channel waveguides. Such channel waveguides are of interest, e.g., as low-threshold tunable lasers. We investigated several structuring methods including ion beam implantation followed by wet chemical etching str ...
An investigation of the mobility, viability, and activity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) degrading bacteria in an electric field is presented. Bench-scale model aquifers were used to test electrophoresis and electroosmosis as potential mechanisms ...
Recent proposals of large and infinite extra dimensions triggered a strong research activity in theories in which our universe is considered as a sub-manifold of some higher-dimensional space-time, a so-called 3-brane. In this context, it is generally assu ...
We propose a new model of small-world networks of cells with a time-varying coupling and study its synchronization properties. In each time interval of length /spl tau/ such a coupling is switched on with probability p and the corresponding switching rando ...
The propagation of high-power femtosecond light pulses in lithium niobate crystals (LiNbO3) is investigated experimentally and theoretically in collinear pump-probe transmission experiments. It is found within a wide intensity range that a strong decrease ...
Sequential adsorption of N atoms on a MgO(100) supported Fe-7 cluster is studied using a density functional approach. For the number of adsorbates varying between one and six, the most favorable adsorption geometries are determined and the corresponding po ...
Interaction forces between ionizable surfaces across an electrolyte solution on the Poisson-Boltzmann level are discussed within the constant regulation approximation. The chemical response of each surface is expressed in terms of two parameters, namely, t ...
The structural arrest and the dynamics in star polymer solutions in the presence of attractive forces between microparticles were studied. The effect of the interplay between attractive interactions of different range and ultrasoft core repulsion, on the d ...
We present an inelastic neutron scattering study of the spin dynamics in the mixed phase of the high-T-c superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4, In the overdoped regime (x = 0. 17, T-c = 37 K) the application of a magnetic field induces a spectral weight redistributi ...
The model of Dvali, Gabadadze, and Porrati (DGP) gives a simple geometrical setup in which gravity becomes 5-dimensional at distances larger than a length scale lambda(DGP). We show that this theory has strong interactions at a length scale lambda(3) simil ...
