Optimal polarization synthesis of arbitrary arrays with focused power pattern

The joint synthesis of the spatial power pattern and polarization of arbitrary arrays is addressed. Specifically, the proposed approach gives the solution to a frequently encountered problem, namely the array design (i.e., the determination of the radiatin ...

Structural Determinants of the Sign of the Pyroelectric Effect in Quasi-Amorphous SrTiO3 Films

Alexander Tagantsev

The magnitude and direction of the permanent electric polarization in the non-crystalline, polar phase (termed quasi-amorphous) of SrTiO3 in Si\SiO2\Me\SrTiO3\Me, (Me = Cr or W), Si\SrRuO3\SrTiO3, and Si\SrTiO3 layered structures were investigated. Three p ...

Fundamental limits in the external quantum efficiency of single nanowire solar cells

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Martin Heiss

The fundamental limits for the measurement of the efficiency of single nanowire solar cell devices are presented. We evaluate the effect of the substrate, light polarization, and existence of Mie resonances in the absorption of the solar spectrum for nanow ...

Nd-Nickelate Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Cathode Sensitivity to Cr and Si Contamination

Jan Van Herle, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Josef Andreas Schuler, Henning Lübbe

The stability of Nd-nickelate, considered as an alternative solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathode material, was evaluated in this work on its tolerance towards contaminants. Symmetrical cells with Nd1.95NiO4+δ (NNO) electrodes on gadolinia-doped ceria elect ...

High-resolution soft X-ray beamline ADRESS at the Swiss Light Source for resonant inelastic X-ray scattering and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopies

Marco Grioni, Thorsten Schmitt, Xiao Wang

The concepts and technical realisation of the high-resolution soft X-ray beamline ADRESS operating in the energy range from 300 to 1600 eV and intended for resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (R1XS) and angle-resolved photoelectron spectioscopy (ARPES) are ...

Orbital characterization of iron-pnictide high-temperature superconductors by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy

Laurent Cevey

The electronic structure of the optimally hole-doped pnictide compound Ba0:6K0:4Fe2As2 was obtained and studied by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The light polarization dependence of the bands is explained by the selection rules contain ...

Exciton-polariton spin switches

Romuald Houdré, Timothy Chi Hin Liew

Integrated switching devices comprise the building blocks of ultrafast optical signal processing(1,2). As the next stage following intensity switching(1,3,4), circular polarization switches(5-9) are attracting considerable interest because of their applica ...

Second harmonic generation from nanocrystals under linearly and circularly polarized excitations

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Rachel Grange, Chia-Lung Hsieh

We study second harmonic generation (SHG) from noncentrosymmetric nanocrystals under linearly polarized (LP) and circularly polarized (CP) excitations. Theoretical models are developed for SHG from nanocrystals under both plane-wave and focused excitations ...

Quantifying electrochemical promotion of induced bipolar Pt particles supported on YSZ

Christos Comninellis, Wolfgang Harbich, Yuehui Li, Michael Hugentobler, Chun Xia

Electrochemical promotion (EP) of CO oxidation is shown for the first time on induced bipolar Pt particles supported on yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ). These Pt particles are formed by sputter deposition of high-purity Pt metal followed by sintering. Con ...

Polarization Properties of Columnar Quantum Dots: Effects of Aspect Ratio and Compositional Contrast

Philipp Ridha

We report a systematic theoretical and experimental investigation of the polarization properties of columnar quantum dots (CQDs) with extremely large aspect ratio and high compositional contrast. A strong variation of the polarization of the dominant inter ...
