Large Anomalous Nernst Angle in Co2MnGa Thin Film

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Simon Granville, Junfeng Hu, Yao Zhang, Song Liu

The new trends for anomalous Nernst effect (ANE)-based thermoelectric devices require materials with large ANE values to realize the scalable generation of voltage. Recently, very large ANE values have been observed in single crystals of some novel magneti ...

Sommerfeld Integrals and Their Relation to the Development of Planar Microwave Devices

Krzysztof Michalski, Juan Ramon Mosig

This paper deals with the mathematical expressions called Sommerfeld integrals. Introduced by A. Sommerfeld in 1909, they are mathematically equivalent to inverse Hankel transforms. The original historical goal of these integrals was to provide an accurate ...

Anomalous Nernst effect in Co2MnGa thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Simon Granville, Sa Tu, Junfeng Hu, Yao Zhang, Song Liu

The thermoelectric and transport properties of MgO/Co2MnGa/Pd stacks with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were measured. For a nominal 3.3 nm Co2MnGa thickness, the anomalous Nernst coefficient and the Nernst angle at room temperature were found to be 0. ...

NMR Study of Spin Dynamics in V7Zn and V7Ni Molecular Rings

Alice Radaelli

We present a(1)H NMR investigation of spin dynamics in two finite integer spin molecular nanomagnetic rings, namely V7Zn and V7Ni. This study could be put in correlation with the problem of Haldane gap in infinite integer spin chains. While V7Zn is an appr ...

Parametric analysis of the elastohydrodynamic lubrication efficiency on induced seismicity

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Chiara Cornelio

During reservoir stimulations, the injection of fluids with variable viscosities can trigger seismicity. Several fault lubrication mechanisms have been invoked to explain the dynamic stress drop occurring during those seismic events. Here, we perform a par ...

Instanton theory of ground-state tunneling splittings with general paths

Christophe Louis Joseph Jean-Luc Vaillant, Mihael Erakovic

We derive a multidimensional instanton theory for calculating ground-state tunneling splittings in Cartesian coordinates for general paths. It is an extension of the method by Mil'nikov and Nakamura [J. Chem. Phys. 115, 6881 (2001)] to include asymmetric p ...

Differential steric effects in the inelastic scattering of NO(X) plus Ar: spin-orbit changing transitions

Sean Dennis Steven Gordon

Spin-orbit changing transitions for bond-axis oriented collisions of NO(X) with Ar have been investigated with full quantum state selection via a crossed molecular beam experiment at collision energies of 532 cm(-1) and 651 cm(-1). NO(X) molecules were sel ...

Suppression of the quantum-confined Stark effect in polar nitride heterostructuresis

Gordon Jens Callsen, Antoine Cyril David Hoffmann

Recently, we suggested an unconventional approach (the so-called Internal-Field-Guarded-Active-Region Design "IFGARD") for the elimination of the quantum-confined Stark effect in polar semiconductor heterostructures. The IFGARD-based suppression of the Sta ...

Stark broadening of Balmer lines with low and moderate quantum number in dense divertor plasmas

Basil Duval, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

A computer simulation technique is applied to the modelling of Balmer line shapes in dense divertor conditions. The spectral profile of lines with a high principal quantum number n is sensitive to Stark broadening and can be used as a density diagnostic. I ...

Semiclassics, Goldstone bosons and CFT data

Riccardo Rattazzi, Alexander Monin, David Pirtskhalava, Fiona Katharina Seibold

Hellerman et al. (arXiv:1505.01537) have shown that in a generic CFT the spectrum of operators carrying a large U(1) charge can be analyzed semiclassically in an expansion in inverse powers of the charge. The key is the operator state correspondence by whi ...

Anomalous Nernst effect in Ir22Mn78/Co20Fe60B20/MgO layers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Sa Tu, Junfeng Hu, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Xiangrong Wang

The anomalous Nernst effect in a perpendicularly magnetized Ir22Mn78/Co20Fe60B20/MgO thin film is measured using well-defined in-plane temperature gradients. The anomalous Nernst coefficient reaches 1.8 mu V/K at room temperature, which is almost 50 times ...

Interaction between site-controlled quantum dot systems and photonic cavity structures

Alexey Lyasota

The goal of this thesis was to investigate light-matter interaction in nanophotonic devices based on site-controlled pyramidal quantum dots (QD) in photonic crystal (PhC) cavities. These QDs provide position and spectral control, which is hardly achievable ...

The Sommerfeld half-space problem revisited: from radio frequencies and Zenneck waves to visible light and Fano modes

Juan Ramon Mosig, Krzysztof Michalski

The classical Sommerfeld half-space problem is revisited, with generalizations to multilayer and plasmonic media and focus on the surface field computation. A new ab initio solution is presented for an arbitrarily oriented Hertzian dipole radiating in the ...

Nanometer-scale monitoring of quantum-confined Stark effect and emission efficiency droop in multiple GaN/AlN quantum disks in nanowires

Gwénolé Jean Jacopin

We report on a detailed study of the intensity dependent optical properties of individual GaN/AlN quantum disks (QDisks) embedded into GaN nanowires (NW). The structural and optical properties of the QDisks were probed by high spatial resolution cathodolum ...

Semiclassical theory of the magnetization process of the triangular lattice Heisenberg model

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc, Tommaso Coletta, Tamás András Tóth

Motivated by the numerous examples of 1/3 magnetization plateaux in the triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet with spins ranging from 1/2 to 5/2, we revisit the semiclassical calculation of the magnetization curve of that model, with the aim of com ...

We investigate the properties of electronic states and optical transitions in hexagonal GaAs quantum dots within Al0.3Ga0.7As nanowires, grown in axial direction [111]. Such dots are particularly interesting due to their high degree of symmetry. A streamli ...

Spin-orbital separation in the quasi-one-dimensional Mott insulator Sr2CuO3

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Martin Mourigal, Thorsten Schmitt, Jean-Sebastien Caux

When viewed as an elementary particle, the electron has spin and charge. When binding to the atomic nucleus, it also acquires an angular momentum quantum number corresponding to the quantized atomic orbital it occupies. Even if electrons in solids form ban ...
