We report on time-resolved and steady-state photoluminescence studies of GaAs/AlGaAs V-groove quantum wire structures. Steady-state photoluminescence experiments are performed in the temperature range from 8 to 200 It. We evaluate the relation between phot ...
The incommensurate magnetic soliton lattice in the high-field phase of a spin-Peierls system results from quantum fluctuations. We have used neutron scattering techniques to study CuGeO3, allowing us to obtain the first complete characterization of the exc ...
The study of \emph{quantum magnetism} remains at the forefront of condensed matter physics. Spin models provide a large class of many-body systems, in which cooperative quantum phenomena can be studied in a controlled way. In addition, the \emph{neutron sc ...
It is first shown that the thermal fluctuation effects on the transport and on the thermodynamic observables above the superconducting transition may provide, when they are analyzed simultaneously and consistently, a powerful tool to access the relaxation ...
The effect of temperature on the Raman spectrum of MgSiO3-perovskite is investigated between 77 and 300 K. The data, combined with those obtained at high pressure, are used to infer microscopic anharmonic parameters (a(i)) It is shown that only two low-fre ...
Scattering rates of quantum-well excitons by acoustic phonons are calculated using realistic deformation potentials for electrons and holes in structures based on GaAs. These fates are used in order to reproduce the exciton dynamics in a time-resolved phot ...
The flux of sensible heat from the land surface is related to the average rate of dissipation of temperature fluctuations in the atmospheric surface layer through the temperature variance budget equation. In many cases it is desirable to estimate the heat ...
We calculate scattering rates of QW excitons by acoustic phonons using realistic deformation potentials for electrons and holes in structures based on GaAs. We use these rates in order to reproduce the exciton dynamics in a time-resolved photoluminescence ...
The incommensurate structure of gamma-bis(n-propyl-ammonium) tetrachloromanganate(II) (gamma-PAMC) at 365 K has been determined in the superspace group Abma(alpha01)000. Main reflections and satellites up to second order have been included. Besides the har ...
Time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy (FA) measurements are reported for 5 helical bilayer-spanning henicosapeptides, each contg. 1 tryptophan at sequence position 1, 6, 11, 16, or 21. The FA decay reflects 2 mol. processes in all cases: local internal flu ...
