We present a theoretical study of the physical characteristics of metal/semiconductor junctions. Using first principle pseudopotential calculations, we have investigated the nature of electronic states with energies within the semiconductor band gap of rep ...
Injection locking of two DFB semiconductors opens new possibilities to generate effective signals for fibre sensing. This is illustrated through the application to distributed Brillouin sensing that shows significant progress with respect to established te ...
Novel x-ray spectroscopies such as high-resolution x-ray absorption (XAS) performed in the partial fluorescence yield mode (PFY), and resonant emission (RXES) offer new opportunities to probe the bulk electronic configuration in strongly correlated systems ...
[Rh-4 (CO)(6) (mu-Me2PCH2PMe2)(3)], the first example of a hexasubstituted derivative of Rh-4(CO)(12), has a ground state geometry in the solid state and in solution of C-s symmetry with four edge-bridging carbonyls and with each diphosphine ligand bridgin ...
The density functional theory (DFT) is a recognised method for the calculation of electronic properties of materials. As such it can also be used for the calculation of energy loss near edge structures. Some care has to be taken since the DFT is intended f ...
The invention provides a device for dispensing accurately-controlled small quantities of at least one liquid, comprising a liquid supply (L); a gas supply (G), arranged to selectively supply a gas pressure; and a capillary duct (20) adapted to be filled wi ...
GaN/AlN quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy either on silicon (111), sapphire or 6H-SiC (0001) substrate have been investigated using photoluminescence, cathodoluminescence, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and attenuated total reflection s ...
The ultrafast nonradiative relaxation processes after photon excitation at 266 nm of Hg2 trapped in a cryogenic Ar matrix were studied by mol. dynamics with quantum transitions. Fourteen electronic surfaces and their corresponding couplings are included in ...
We have calculated the maximally localized Wannier functions of MnO in its antiferromagnetic (AFM) rhombohedral unit cell, which contains two formula units. Electron Bloch functions are obtained with the linearized-augmented-plane-wave method within both t ...
A search for charged and neutral excited leptons is performed in 217 pb(-1) of e(+)e(-) collision data collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies from 202 up to 209 GeV The pair- and single-production mechanisms of excited electrons, ...
