The subject of this thesis is the growth and analysis of high temperature superconductor (HTSC) films and the study of their electronic structure and properties. In particular, the effect of epitaxial strain is investigated, predominantly by means of in-si ...
In this work, we consider the problem of designing adaptive distributed processing algorithms in large sensor networks that are efficient in terms of minimizing the total power spent for gathering the spatially correlated data from the sensor nodes to a si ...
We studied the neutral electronic excitations of NiO localized at the Ni sites by measuring the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra at the Ni M-2,M-3 edges. The good energy resolution allows an unambiguous identification of several spectral ...
The hydrogen response of gas-sensitive field-effect devices is mainly due to trapping of atomic hydrogen on the insulator side of the metal-insulator interface of the metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structure. Therefore an influence of the choice of in ...
Abstract Electronic properties of low-dimensional systems — and particularly quasi-one-dimensional systems — together with related correlated electron phenomena have for quite some time been at the very frontier of condensed matter physics. The interest ra ...
High-resolution angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) displays quasi-one dimensional (1D) electronic states in the insulating molybdenum red bronze K0.33MoO3, in good qualitative agreement with band structure calculations. Combined ARPES, optical conductivi ...
High-resolution neutron scattering experiments on optimally doped La2-xSrxCuO4 (x=0.16) reveal that the magnetic excitations are dispersive. The dispersion is the same as in YBa2Cu3O6.85, and is quantitatively related to that observed with charge sensitive ...
We discuss the spectral signatures of strong electronic correlations and electron-phonon interactions in two representative low-dimensional systems. In the 2D compound 1T-TaSe2 a charge-density-wave (CDW) induces a narrowing of the conduction band, which t ...
Numerous evidence suggests that thick-film resistors are close to a metal– insulator transition and that tunneling processes between metallic grains are the main source of resistance. By theoretical analysis of various percolative resistor network models w ...
This article discusses neutron scattering measurements on the cuprate, high transition temperature superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) in an applied magnetic field. LSCO is a type-II superconductor and magnetic flux can penetrate the material via the format ...
