Calcium phosphate precipitation obtained from aqueous solutions at room and body temperatures and pH 5.5-7.5 were investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), transmission electron diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM ...
Pb1-xCaxTiO3 thin films with x = 0-0.3 for pyroelectric applications were deposited on platinized silicon wafers by chemical solution processing. Ca-substitution for Pb in PbTio(3) results in a reduced cia ratio of the unit cell, which, in turn, leads to b ...
We explored degradation in electron-beam-pumped Zn1-xCdxSe/ZnSe laser structures by combining cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements in a scanning electron microscope with transmission electron microscopy. The rate of degradation, measured as the decrease o ...
Ag(111) surface state electrons have been confined in symmetric and asymmetric Fabry-Perot resonators formed by two atomically parallel step edges. The local density of states in the resonators has been measured by means of low-temperature scanning tunneli ...
The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem states that the ground state electron density completely determines the external potential acting on an electron system. Inspired by this fundamental theorem, we developed a novel approach to map directly the electron potential i ...
Excitons and trions in a CdTe modulation-doped quantum well are investigated by picosecond three-pulse four-wave mixing experiments as a function of temperature in the low-density regime. We show that trions are mobile for high enough temperatures. The dif ...
Piezoelectric coatings of PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) were deposited on standard telecommunication fibers. The PZT coatings were produced by reactive de magnetron sputtering of metal targets in pure oxygen atmosphere. The deposition was carried out at substrate tem ...
We report on a novel approach to measure the phase relaxation length and femtosecond lifetime of hot quasiparticles on metal surfaces. A 4 K scanning tunneling microscope has been used to study the spatial decay of interference patterns in the local densit ...
The characterization of sub-micron gratings is usually performed on scanning electron microscopes, although the dimensions of the features often make the observations difficult. We report here on a new method applicable to III-V and II-VI semiconductors: w ...
We have grown high-electron mobility transistor structures in the Al0.3Ga0.7As/In0.25Ga0.75As/GaAs material system with In0.25Ga0.75As channel thicknesses in the range 40-200 Angstrom. We have monitored the onset of channel relaxation using Hall mobility m ...
