Relation between deformation and polarization in the region of diffused phase transition of plzt 8/65/35
1995
Abstract The deformation as a function of polarization was measured in PLZT 8-10/65/35 in the region of diffused phase transition. A different behaviour of deformation in the region of double hysteresis loops was observed corresponding to ferroelectric and nonpolar phases as well as to the field induced phase transition region. In the ferroelectric phase the results are described by electrostriction. The decrease of volume as well as small longitudinal deformations at the field induced transition to ferroelectric state are explained by large remanent deformations, existing in the nonpolar phase. Since description of deformation in the framework of electrostriction cannot be motivated in the…
Magnetic field tuning of the smart materials domain structure
1998
The investigation of the behavior of the ferroelectric phase transition with magnetic filed tuning and concentration change is highly attractive owing to the possibility to prepare alloying samples and to predict theoretically the parameters of the magnetic field and concentration response at relatively small concentrations. These parameters may be extracted from the equation of states of the perovskite under investigation in the assumption of the linear response. The study of the movement of the paraelectric - ferroelectric interphase boundary in (Ba,Sr)TiO 3 with concentration change and in constant magnetic fields is provided in the framework of the mean-field theory. The analytical solu…
Anisotropic polarization of non‐polar GaN quantum dot emission
2009
We report on experimental and theoretical studies of the polarization selection rules of the emission of non-polar GaN/AlN self-assembled quantum dots. Time-integrated and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements have been performed to determine the degree of polarization. It is found that the emission of some samples can be predominantly polarized parallel to the wurtzite c axis, in striking difference with the previously reported results for bulk GaN and its heterostructures, in which the emission was preferentially polarized perpendicular to the c axis. Theoretical calculations based on an 8-band k·p model are used to analyze the relative importance of strain, confinement and quantum…
Subdiffractive solitons in bose-einstein condensates
2005
We predict the disappearance of diffraction (the increase of the mass) of Bose-Einstein condensates in counter-moving periodic potentials. We demonstrate subdiffractive solitons (stable droplets of the condensate) in the vicinity of this zero diffraction point.
Magnetic phase diagram of the anisotropic multi-band Hubbard model
2007
Using quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations we determine the magnetic phase diagram of the anisotropic two-band Hubbard model within the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) in the important intermediate-coupling regime. We compare the QMC predictions with exact results from second-order weak-and strong-coupling perturbation theory. We find that the orbital-selective Mott transition (OSMT), which occurs in the fully frustrated case, is completely hidden in the antiferromagnetic (AF) ground state of the model. On the basis of our results, we discuss possible mechanisms of frustration. We also demonstrate the close relationship of the physics of the two-band Hubbard model in the orbital-selecti…
Phase sticking in one-dimensional Josephson junction chains
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: Physical Review B - Condensed Matter and Materials Physics. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.88.104501 We studied current-voltage characteristics of long one-dimensional Josephson junction chains with Josephson energy much larger than charging energy, EJ EC. In this regime, typical I-V curves of the samples consist of a supercurrent-like branch at low-bias voltages followed by a voltage-independent chain current branch, Ichain at high bias. Our experiments showed that Ichain is not only voltage-independent but it is also practically temperature-independent up to T=0.7TC. We have successfully model the tr…
Solitons and their observable signatures in quasi-one-dimensional systems
2005
We give an overview of the experimental signatures of nonlinear waves: notably topological and non topological solitons, in specific quasi-one-dimensional devices and condensed matter systems. Non topological solitons can be easily observed and manipulated, on a macroscopic scale, in optical fibers and electrical transmission lines. Topological solitons have been clearly identified as fluxons in Josephson transmission lines and as domain walls in condensed matter systems such as magnetic chains and synthetic polymers. By contrast, at the present time the observable signatures of nonlinear excitations such as pulse or envelope solitons and polarons, which are predicted to occur on a microsco…
Polarization detection of trapped electrons via interaction with polarized atoms
1971
Electrons were trapped in an electrostatic quadrupole trap with superimposed homogeneous magnetic field. The electrons were polarized by spin exchange with a polarized atomic beam. The free trapped electron polarization was converted to a change in the electron translational energy via spin-dependent inelastic collisions with the atomic beam, and the electron translational temperature was monitored. Discussed are the development of this variation of the measurement technique, characteristics of electron storage, and the electron-polarized atom inelastic interaction as a function of electron temperature and time. The method has been applied to the detection of the (g-2) resonance of free, st…
Critical Behavior for Correlated Strongly Coupled Boson Systems in 1 + 1 Dimensions
1994
The natural integrable correlated strongly coupled boson system in 1 + 1 dimensions is the $q$-boson hopping model; we calculate its critical exponent $\ensuremath{\theta}$ and determine its correlation functions. For small couplings the $q$-boson model has natural connections with the Bose gas and the $\mathrm{XY}$ models of very large spin for which $\ensuremath{\theta}'\mathrm{s}$ and correlators are reported. For large couplings the hopping model is a new phase of interacting bosons substantially different from the impenetrable Bose gas.
How to reconcile the Rosenbluth and the polarization transfer method in the measurement of the proton form factors
2003
The apparent discrepancy between the Rosenbluth and the polarization transfer method for the ratio of the electric to magnetic proton form factors can be explained by a two-photon exchange correction which does not destroy the linearity of the Rosenbluth plot. Though intrinsically small, of the order of a few percent of the cross section, this correction is kinematically enhanced in the Rosenbluth method while it is small for the polarization transfer method, at least in the range of (Q^2) where it has been used until now.
