This paper reports a new MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) compatible actuator that can operate near an MRI without degrading its imaging quality. A high-power electrostatic motor is introduced and its MR-compatibility is examined, both experimentally and t ...
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 ...
We have investigated the doping mechanism of pentacene with iodine and its impact on the structure and on the electronic properties of single crystals, powders, and thin films in a large range of iodine concentration up to six iodine per pentacene (PEN) mo ...
The invention concerns an inertial sensor or an actuator based on diamagnetic levitation, said inertial sensor or actuator comprising support means serving as main support body for an inertial sensor or for an actuator, a two dimensional array of permanent ...
A simple scheme for the evaluation of the core spin-polarization contribution within pseudopotential electronic structure methods is proposed. The method uses a reconstruction of the all-electron wave functions and the frozen valence spin-d. approxn. to so ...
The additional power absorbed by the plasma can be determined from the time derivative of the total plasma energy, which can be estimated from the diamagnetic flux of the plasma using a diamagnetic loop. The main difficulty in using diamagnetic measurement ...
We present experimental studies of the magnetization of electrons in semiconductorquantum dots. Starting from a modulation-doped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure an array of dots was patterned by laser-interference lithography and deep mesa etching. The quantum ...
Properties of carrier-induced ferromagnetism in modulation-doped quantum wells of p-type (Cd,Mn)Te are assessed by photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation spectroscopy. Well-chosen illumination makes it possible to deplete the quantum well and thus to con ...
By combining the field-susceptibility technique with the optical Bloch equations, a general formalism is developed for the investigation of molecular photophysical phenomena triggered by nanometer scale optical fields in the presence of complex environment ...
One electron oxidn. of the beta-Diketiminate vanadium (III) bis-neopentyl complex (Nacnac)V(CH2tBu)2 (Nacnac-=[Ar]NC(Me)CHC(Me)N[Ar], Ar=2,6-(CHMe2)2C6H3) promotes alpha-abstraction to afford the cationic four-coordinate neopentylidene vanadium complex [(N ...
