Critical Exponents and Randomness in SrTiO3 : Ca
1994
Since its discovery, the SrTiO3: Ca system is known to exhibit a number of features which were thought to arise from an impurity induced disorder. Non-linear dielectric measurements are used to obtain a more quantitative insight into this disorder. For 0.001 < xCa < 0.05, it is found that the non-linear susceptibility diverges at low temperatures. This is similar to what was previously reported in the dielectric random system KTaO3: Na. A method is proposed to quantify the contribution of the disorder to the non-linearities. It is found that the deviation from a true ferroelectric behaviour is not enough to call the low-temperature phase of SrTiO3: Ca a glass one. The maximum non-linearity …
Two-LO-Phonon Resonant Raman Scattering in II-VI Semiconductors
1996
Recently, absolute values of socond-order Raman scattering efficiency have been measured around the E 0 and E 0 + Δ 0 critical points of several II-VI semiconductor compounds. The measurements were perfomed in the z(x,x)z backscattering configuration on (001) (ZnSe and ZnTe) and (110) (CdTe) surfaces. They show strong incoming and outgoing resonances around the baud gap and larger scattering efficiencies as compaered to III-V compounds. A theoretical model which includes excitons as intermediate states in the Raman process is shown to give a very good quantitative agreement between theory and experiment. Only a small discrepancy exists, while III-V compounds the discrepancies were close to …
Comparative study of [001] surface relaxations of perovskite titanates
1998
Surface relaxations of the cubic perovskite SrTiO and BaTiO crystals have been studied in the framework of the shell model. The 33 positions of atoms in several surface layers embedded into the electrostatic field of the remainder of the crystal were calculated. Ti 4q , Sr 2q ,B a 2q and O 2y ions in six near-surface layers are displaced differently from their crystalline sites. Such effects create the so-called surface rumpling, a dipole moment and the electric field in the near-surface region. Calculated atomic displacements were compared with the LEED experimental data and showed good agreement. Our simulations have demonstrated that the cubic perovskite SrTiO crystals 3 reveal surface p…
<title>Correlation effects in the disordered ferroelectrics</title>
2003
ABSTRACT The calculation of the correlation radius distribution function is performed for the cases of undamped and overdamped softmode dispersion laws. Taking into account the correlation radius dependence on the random field and this field distribution function we carried out the theoretical calculation of the correlation radius distribution function dependence ontemperature, damping coefficient and random field distribution function parameters. It was shown that at temperaturehigher than Burns temperature Td the most probable value of the correlation radius is equal to its maximal valueindependently on the system disorder, while in the dipole glass state it is close to the minimal value …
Euclid preparation XIX. Impact of magnification on photometric galaxy clustering
2022
Aims. We investigate the importance of lensing magnification for estimates of galaxy clustering and its cross-correlation with shear for the photometric sample of Euclid. Using updated specifications, we study the impact of lensing magnification on the constraints and the shift in the estimation of the best fitting cosmological parameters that we expect if this effect is neglected.
Theoretical absorption spectrum of the Ar–CO van der Waals complex
2003
The three-dimensional intermolecular electric dipole moment surface of Ar–CO is calculated at the coupled cluster singles and doubles level of theory with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set extended with a 3s3p2d1f1g set of midbond functions. Using the rovibrational energies and wave functions of our recent study [J. Chem. Phys. 117, 6562 (2002)], temperature-dependent spectral intensities are evaluated and compared to available experimental data. Based on the theoretical spectrum, alternative assignments of the experimentally observed lines in the fundamental band of CO around 2160 and 2166 cm−1 are suggested. Thomas.Bondo@uv.es
Evaluation of the Strength of Coupling Between a Vibrational Exciton and a Specific Low Frequency Mode
1993
In Davydov’s theory, one dimensional sub-systems within molecular crystals may exhibit self-trapping of some high frequency phonons as these travel by dipole resonance interaction, due to coupling to some specific soft oscillation mode1
Non-Bloch decay of transient nutations in S=1/2 systems: An experimental investigation.
1993
The decay of transient nutations has been experimentally investigated in S=1/2 spin systems at microwave frequency: E' centers in silica and [${\mathrm{AlO}}_{4}$${]}^{0}$ centers in quartz have been studied. We have found that the damping is well described by a single exponential decay function, as expected from a ${\mathit{T}}_{1}$-${\mathit{T}}_{2}$ model (Bloch model). However, the agreement is only qualitative. In fact the measured decay rate \ensuremath{\Gamma} is faster than expected and depends on the driving-field amplitude: it tends to the Bloch value ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Gamma}}}_{\mathit{B}}$=1/2${\mathit{T}}_{2}$ in the low-power limit and becomes faster and faster on increas…
New constraints on axion-mediated P , T -violating interaction from electric dipole moments of diamagnetic atoms
2018
The exchange of an axionlike particle between atomic electrons and the nucleus may induce electric dipole moments (EDMs) of atoms and molecules. This interaction is described by a parity- and time-reversal-invariance-violating potential which depends on the product of a scalar ${g}^{s}$ and a pseudoscalar ${g}^{p}$ coupling constant. We consider the interaction with the specific combination of these constants, ${g}_{e}^{s}{g}_{N}^{p}$, which gives significant contributions to the EDMs of diamagnetic atoms. In this paper, we calculate these contributions to the EDMs of $^{199}\mathrm{Hg}$, $^{129}\mathrm{Xe}$, $^{211}\mathrm{Rn}$, and $^{225}\mathrm{Ra}$ for a wide range of axion masses. Com…
A line-shape analysis for spin-1 NMR signals
1997
An analytic model of the deuteron absorption function has been developed and is compared to experimental NMR signals of deuterated butanol obtained at the SMC experiment in order to determine the deuteron polarization. The absorption function model includes dipolar broadening and a frequency-dependent treatment of the intensity factors. The high-precision TE signal data available are used to adjust the model for Q-meter distortions and dispersion effects. Once the Q-meter adjustment is made, the enhanced polarizations determined by the asymmetry and TE-calibration methods compare well within the accuracy of each method. In analyzing the NMR signals, the quadrupolar coupling constants could …
