GaN/InGaN heterostructures were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on sapphire (0001). The photoluminescence (PL) of InGaN/GaN quantum wells rapidly vanishes when the temperature increases from 10 to 100 K and is totally quenched above 150 K. This is the cons ...
The structural phases observed in LiKSO4 crystals due to thermotropic transitions have been studied for more than a century. Nowadays many different phases are referenced, but some of the results are still controversial. Structural studies by single-crysta ...
We present the first static measurements of the density of metallic liquids in the Fe-S system in the pressure and temperature range 1.5 GPa-6.2 GPa and 1500 K - 1780 K. Density is inferred from X-ray absorption experiments carried out with a large volume ...
In order to quantify the cooling conditions undergone by an ingot during direct-chill (DC) casting, thermocouples were immersed in the liquid pool and consequently entrapped in the solid, thus monitoring the temperature of the metal during its descent. Ass ...
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 ...
Nucleation and growth of Pd on cleaved MgO(001) surfaces were studied by variable-temperature atomic force microscopy in the temperature range 200-800 K. Constant island densities (similar to 3x10(12)cm(-2)) were observed over a wide temperature range, ind ...
Raman spectra of MgSiO3-perovskite (Mg-pv) were recorded at simultaneous high-pressure and low-temperature conditions. This allowed to estimate characteristic frequencies (nu(i)) and other mode parameters as a function of both pressure and temperature. The ...
The thermoforming of thermoplastic sandwich structures based on the same matrix polymer for the face sheets and the core requires precise temperature control both before and during forming. Two opposing requirements must be satisfied: the face sheets must ...
We report a systematic study for metal-on-metal surface migration in the weak corrugation regime, i.e., with migration barriers falling below approximate to 100 meV. The migration characteristics are elucidated by variable-temperature scanning tunneling mi ...
We report on the direct absorption measurement of the polarization selection rules in a V-groove QWR waveguide. Attenuation measurements in a 1 mm long waveguide were performed from 10 K up to room temperature. These measurements yielded the QWR DOS select ...
