At room temp. (1) is a green paramagnetic liq. under a blue gas, that freezes to a black diamagnetic solid, which consists of tetramers of (1). The enthalpy of fusion, vaporization and sublimation are similar to those expected for a diamagnetic material, i ...
The dynamic response of two-dimensional Josephson junction arrays close to, but above the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition temperature is described in terms of the vortex dielectric function ε(ω) and the flux noise spectrum S φ (ω). They ar ...
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 ...
We calculate the one-electron spectral function of the attractive-U Hubbard model in two dimensions. We work in the intermediate coupling and low-density regime and evaluate analytically the self energy. The results are obtained in a framework based on the ...
We investigated the effect of disorder on the spectral properties of the high temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x. We find that small defect densities, in the low 10(-3) range, already suppress the characteristic spectral signature of the supercondu ...
The influence of exchange interaction between paramagnetic ions on the luminescence properties is investigated for and pairs. Two effects are reported: shortening of the lifetime of the spin-forbidden emission and a shift of emission lines or bands to a lo ...
We present a combined angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and resistivity study of the model Fermi liquid system 1T-TiTe2. From the analysis of the quasiparticle spectral line shape we identify and separately evaluate the electron-electron. electron- ...
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 ...
We consider an electron-phonon system in two and three dimensions on square, hexagonal, and cubic lattices. The model is a modification of the standard Holstein model where the optical branch is appropriately curved in order to have a reflection positive H ...
We performed angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) and resistivity measurements on the layered metal 1T-TiTe2. We determined the quasiparticle dispersion and lifetime. In particular, we could characterize and separately evaluate the effects of ...
