we present a detailed study of the spinel CdEr2Se4 and show it to be a new instance of spin ice, the first one in an erbium material and the first one in a spinel. Definitive experimental evidence comes from the temperature dependence of the magnetic entro ...
Density functional approximations fail to provide a consistent description of weak molecular interactions arising from small electron density overlaps. A simple remedy to correct for the missing interactions is to add a posteriori an attractive energy term ...
A surface integral formulation for light scattering on periodic structures is presented. Electric and magnetic field equations are derived on the scatterers' surfaces in the unit cell with periodic boundary conditions. The solution is calculated with the m ...
Lithium niobate is a key material for photonics with applications in optical modulators and light frequency converters. Present lithium niobate optical devices are realized in bulk lithium niobate single crystals while interests in higher integration and a ...
Holt and Klee have recently shown that every (generic) LP orientation of the graph of a d-polytope satisfies a directed version of the d-connectivity property, i.e. there are d internally disjoint directed paths from a unique source to a unique sink. We in ...
Deviations from statistical binding, that is cooperativity, in self-assembled polynuclear complexes partly result from intermetallic interactions Delta E-M,E-M, whose magnitudes in solution depend on a balance between electrostatic repulsion and solvation ...
Analytical and numerical methods for the identification of creep properties of two polymers and indium from indentation tests are compared. Creep indentation experiments are performed at fixed peak force following ramp loading: The experiments are modeled ...
Synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements of Pb-Ti-O fine acicular crystals (nanowires) of the so-called PX-phase have been performed. The theta-2 theta patterns of the nanowires dispersed on substrates with two different geometries indicated that t ...
At present, more powerful tools for numerical modelling and structural analysis are available for the use in fatigue design and assessment of complex structures. Taking advantage of these tools, structural hot spot stress approach (SHSS) can predict the fa ...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dye to become a constituting material of a dye-sensitized solar cell having a high conversion efficiency and excelling in the durability. SOLUTION: The dye is represented by formula (1): ML1L2L3 ...
