Herein we present a theoretical investigation of the hyperfine coupling constants (HFCCs) on the inner-sphere water molecules of Gd(H2O)(8) and different Gd-III-based magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents such as Gd(DOTA)(H2O), [Gd(DTPA)(H2 ...
Static flexoelectric effect in a finite sample of a solid is addressed in terms of phenomenological theory for the case of a thin plate subjected to bending. It has been shown that despite an explicit asymmetry inherent to the bulk constitutive electromech ...
Continuous Global Positioning System (cGPS) time series in Guerrero, Mexico, reveal the widespread existence of large Slow Slip Events (SSEs) at the boundary between the Cocos and North American plates. The existence of these SSEs asks the question of how ...
This paper reports simultaneous measurements of intrinsic toroidal and poloidal plasma rotation during the evolution of electron Internal Transport Barriers (eITBs) on TCV. A CXRS diagnostic-beam system provides ion parameter profiles for stationary pre-ba ...
Polarization reversal in BiFeO3 (BFO) thin films in a parallel-plate capacitor configuration has been explored using piezo-force microscopy (PFM). Through-electrode mapping of the local piezoresponse allows for direct observation of the domain growth, whic ...
The energy loss in dye-sensitized solar cells calcd. from the energy difference between the lowest electronic transition of the dye and the obtained open-circuit voltage is often 1 eV or even more. To minimize this loss, it is important to accurately det. ...
Contactless electroreflectance (CER) has been applied to study optical transitions between the ground and excited states in polar and a-plane nonpolar 2 nm wide GaN/Al0.12Ga0.88N quantum well (QW) structures. In addition to the fundamental transition, CER ...
We present near-field measurements of optical Yagi-Uda nanoantennas that are used in receiving mode. The eigenmode imaging of amplitude and phase by apertureless scanning near-field optical microscopy allows us to investigate the dynamics of the local out- ...
Tunnel transport processes are considered in a square lattice of metallic nanogranules embedded into insulating host to model tunnel conduction in real metal/insulator granular layers. Based on a simple model with three possible charging states (+/- or 0) ...
The study of the lightning interaction with tall strike objects has attracted considerable attention of lightning researchers lately. Many lightning measurements including current and associated electromagnetic fields were recently made all over the globe ...
