Identification of spatially confined states in two-dimensional quasiperiodic lattices.
1995
We study the electronic eigenstates on several two-dimensional quasiperiodic lattices, such as the Penrose lattice and random-tiling lattices, using a tight-binding Hamiltonian in the vertex model. The infinitely degenerate states at E=0 are especially investigated. We present a systematic procedure which allows us to identify numerically the spatially strongly localized so-called confined states.
Kinetic exchange Hamiltonian for orbitally degenerate ions
1998
Abstract A new approach to the problem of the kinetic exchange for orbitally degenerate ions is developed. The highly anisotropic effective Hamiltonian is expressed in terms of unit irreducible tensor operators and spin operators. All parameters of the exchange Hamiltonian are expressed through relevant transfer integrals, crystal field and Racah parameters for the metal ions. As an example the edge-shared ( D 2 h ) bioctahedral cluster is discussed and some comments on the considerations of Anderson, Goodenough and Kanamori and McConnell are given.
Magnetic Exchange between Orbitally Degenerate Ions: A New Development for the Effective Hamiltonian
1998
A new approach to the problem of the kinetic exchange for orbitally degenerate ions is developed. The constituent multielectron metal ions are assumed to be octahedrally coordinated, and strong crystal field scheme is employed, making it possible to take full advantage from the symmetry properties of the fermionic operators and collective electronic states. In the framework of the microscopic approach, the highly anisotropic effective Hamiltonian of the kinetic exchange is constructed in terms of spin operators and standard orbital operators (matrices of the unit cubic irreducible tensors). As distinguished from previous considerations, the effective Hamiltonian is derived for a most genera…
Level-spacing distribution in the tight-binding model of fcc clusters.
1993
A lattice-gas Monte Carlo method is used to simulate metallic fcc clusters at finite temperatures. A tight-binding model including s and p electrons has been derived for reproducing the free-electron-like energy band for the bulk metal and this model is used for calculating the electronic structures of the fcc cluster. The resulting level-spacing distribution at the Fermi energy is a Wigner distribution. The width of the distribution in small clusters is smaller than that calculated from the bulk density of states. In the lattice gas clusters the energy gaps related to the electronic magic numbers do not show up at the Fermi level. The energy between the last occupied and the first unoccupi…
Energy gap of intermediate-valentSmB6studied by point-contact spectroscopy
2001
We have investigated the intermediate valence narrow-gap semiconductor ${\mathrm{SmB}}_{6}$ at low temperatures using both conventional spear-anvil type point contacts as well as mechanically controllable break junctions. The zero-bias conductance varied between less than $0.01 \ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{S}$ and up to 1 mS. The position of the spectral anomalies, which are related to the different activation energies and band gaps of ${\mathrm{SmB}}_{6},$ did not depend on the the contact size. Two different regimes of charge transport could be distinguished: Contacts with large zero-bias conductance are in the diffusive Maxwell regime. They had spectra with only small nonlinearities. Contacts…
Spectroscopy of193Bi
2014
An experiment aiming to study the shape coexistence in 193Bi has been performed at the Accelerator laboratory of the University of Jyväskylä, Finland (JYFL). Many new states have been found, hugely extending the previously known level scheme of 193Bi. The Iπ=292+${I^\pi } = {{{29} \over 2}^ + }$ member of the πi13/2 band de-excites also to the previously, only tentatively placed long-lived isomeric state. This link determines the energy of the isomeric state to be 2260(1) keV and suggests a spin and parity of (272+)$\left( {{{{{27} \over 2}}^ + }} \right)$. The half-life of the isomeric state was measured to be 84.4(6) µs. A level structure on top of this isomeric state was constructed. How…
Occupation probabilities of single particle levels using the microscopic interacting boson model: Application to some nuclei of interest in neutrinol…
2016
We have developed a new method to calculate the occupancies of single particle levels in atomic nuclei. This method has been developed in the context of the microscopic interacting boson model, in which neutron and proton degrees of freedom are treated explicitly. The energies of the single particle levels constitute a very important input for the calculation of the occupancies in this method. In principle these energies can be considered as input parameters that can be fitted to reproduce the experimental occupancies. Instead of fitting, in this study we have extracted the single particle energies from experimental data on nuclei with a particle more or one particle less than a shell closu…
Optical Frequency Combs Generated in Silica Microspheres in the Telecommunication C-, U-, and E-Bands
2021
Optical frequency combs (OFCs) generated in microresonators with whispering gallery modes are demanded for different applications including telecommunications. Extending operating spectral ranges is an important problem for wavelength-division multiplexing systems based on microresonators. We demonstrate experimentally three spectrally separated OFCs in the C-, U-, and E-bands in silica microspheres which, in principle, can be used for telecommunication applications. For qualitative explanation of the OFC generation in the sidebands, we calculated gain coefficients and gain bandwidths for degenerate four-wave mixing (FWM) processes. We also attained a regime when the pump frequency was in t…
Equilibrium/steady-state concept in phytoplankton ecology
2003
This paper summarises the outcomes of the 13th Workshop of the International Association of Phytoplankton Taxonomy and Ecology (IAP). The authors mostly addressed their contributions on the following topics: the effect of trophic state on the attainment of a steady-state; the establishment of equilibria in deep and shallow lakes; the role of spatial heterogeneity, disturbance, and stress in the establishment of equilibrium assemblages; the mechanisms leading to the steady state; the frequency and longevity of equilibrium phases, and the role of morphological and physiological plasticity of phytoplankton in maintaining the (apparently) same populations under different environmental condition…
The REAPower Project
2019
Abstract Reverse electrodialysis technology has grown significantly in the last decade, gaining a fast increase in its technology readiness level and presenting some interesting examples of pilot systems operating under very different real environments. Among these, one was able to operate in a saltwork in Marsala (Sicily, Italy) with real concentrated brine and real saline waters (i.e., either seawater or brackish water), producing electric power in the order of 1 kW. This pilot plant was one of the main achievements of the European REAPower research project. This chapter presents an overview of the main research efforts and results achieved in the framework of this project starting from t…
