The absorption spectra of optical bistability with dispersion

The absorption spectra of a weak field (Ω) probing the bistable behaviour of a homogeneously broadened medium (ω₀) detuned with respect to the exciting laser light (ω_L) has been investigated. A dispersion like structure superimposed on an inverted peak near the critical threshold is predicted. The frequency response of the differential gain amplifier is also obtained.     

Electro-optical properties of zigzag and armchair boron nitride nanotubes under a transverse electric field: Tight binding calculations

The electro-optical properties of zigzag and armchair BNNTs in a uniform transverse electric field are investigated within tight binding approximation. It is found that the electric field modifies the band structure and splits band degeneracy where these effects reflect in the DOS and JDOS spectra. A decrease in the band gap, as a function of the electric field, is observed. This gap reduction increases with the diameter and it is independent of chirality. An analytic function to estimate the electric field needed for band gap closing is proposed which is in good agreement with DFT results. In additional, we show that the larger diameter tubes are more sensitive than small ones. Number and position of peaks in DOS and JDOS spectra for armchair and zigzag tubes with similar radius are dependent on electric field strength.     

Fermi-edge singularity in the vicinity of the resonant scattering condition

Fermi-edge absorption theory predicting the spectrum A(ω) ∝ ω(-2δ(0)/π+δ(0)92)/π2) relies on the assumption that scattering phase δ(0) is frequency independent. The dependence of δ(0) on ω becomes crucial near the resonant condition, where the phase changes abruptly by π. In this limit, because of the finite time spent by electron on a resonant level, the scattering is dynamic. We incorporate the finite time delay into the theory, solve the Dyson equation with a modified kernel, and find that, near the resonance, A(ω) behaves as ω(-3/4)|lnω|. Scattering off the core hole becomes resonant in 1D and 2D in the presence of an empty subband above the Fermi level; then a deep hole splits off a level from the bottom of this subband. Fermi-edge absorption in the regime when resonant level transforms into a Kondo peak is discussed.     

Effects of an electric field on the electronic and optical properties of zigzag boron nitride nanotubes

We have investigated the electro-optical properties of zigzag BNNTs, under an external electric field, using the tight binding approximation. It is found that an electric field modifies the band structure and splits the band degeneracy. Also the large electric strength leads to coupling the neighbor subbands which these effects reflect in the DOS and JDOS spectrum. It has been shown that, unlike CNTs, the band gap of BNNTs can be reduced linearly by applying a transverse external electric field. Also we show that the larger diameter tubes are more sensitive than small ones. The semiconducting metallic transition can be achieved through increasing the applied fields. The number and position of peaks in the JDOS spectrum are dependent on electric field strength. It is found that at a high electric field, the two lowest subbands are oscillatory with multiple nodes at the Fermi level.

Boson peak in various random-matrix models

A so-called boson peak in the reduced density g(ω)ω² of vibrational states is one of the most universal properties of amorphous solids (glasses). It quantifies the excess density of states above the Debye value at low frequencies ω. Its nature is not fully understood and, at a first sight, is nonuniversal. It is shown in this work that, under rather general assumptions, the boson peak emerges in a natural way in very dissimilar models of stable random dynamic matrices possessing translational symmetry. This peak can be shifted toward both higher and lower frequencies (down to zero frequency) by varying the parameters of the distribution and the degree of disorder in the system. The frequency ω_b of the boson peak appears to be proportional to the elastic modulus E of the system in all cases under investigation.

On the theory of Boson peak in glasses

A universal mechanism of the Boson peak formation in glasses is proposed. The mechanism is based on the concept of interacting quasilocal oscillators. Even in the case of weak interaction, the low-frequency spectrum becomes unstable. Due to anharmonicity, the system undergoes a transition into a new stable configuration. As a result, below some characteristic frequency ω_c, proportional to the typical strength of interaction, the renormalized density of states becomes a universal function of ω with a Boson peak feature; i.e., the reduced density of states g(ω)/ω² has a maximum at a frequency ω_b?ω_c. We derive an analytic form of this function.     

Heat capacity and low-frequency vibrational density of states. Inferences for the boson peak of silica and alkali silicate glasses

A simple method is used to determine in an absolute way the low-frequency part of the vibrational density of states, g(ω), from inversion of low-temperature heat capacities of glasses. Calculations have been made from adiabatic measurements performed from 10 to 300 K for vitreous SiO₂ and a series of Li, Na and K silicate glasses with up to 50 mol% metal oxide. In all cases, the calculated low-frequency feature is made up of two bands whose maxima lie between 100 and 140 cm⁻¹ and near 400 cm⁻¹. Both the frequency and intensity of the first peak of g(ω) increase linearly with metal oxide content from pure SiO₂ to the metasilicate stoichiometry, reflecting weaker bonding with nonbridging oxygens in the order Li, Na, K, i.e., in order of increasing cationic radius and mass. As represented by the peaks found below 50 cm⁻¹ in plots of g(ω)/ω² vs. ω and below 20 K in plots of C_p/T³ vs. T, the boson peak varies in a different way with composition. Its intensity increases with increasing polymerization for Li and Na silicates whereas the converse holds true for K silicates. These variations agree with the enhancement of the contribution of floppy modes and transverse acoustic modes to the low-frequency vibrational density of states that has previously been reported, but they also point to the importance of localized vibrations in which network modifier cations participate. For either the first peak of g(ω) or the boson peak, however, the size of the alkali cation exerts a stronger influence than the degree of polymerization of the anionic framework. Finally, the universal phenomenology of the boson peak is borne out by the collapse of the calorimetric data on a single master curve when one plots the measurements in a reduced form by using the intensity and position of the peaks as scaling parameters.     

On the Doppler distortion of the sea-wave spectra

Discussions on a form of a frequency spectrum of wind-driven sea waves just above the spectral maximum have continued for the last three decades. In 1958 Phillips made a conjecture that wave breaking is the main mechanism responsible for the spectrum formation [O.M. Phillips, J. Fluid Mech. 4 (1958) 426]. That leads to the spectrum decay ∼ω⁻⁵, where ω is the frequency of waves. There is a contradiction between the numerous experimental data and this spectrum. Experiments frequently show decay ∼ω⁻⁴ [Y. Toba, J. Oceanogr. Soc. Japan 29 (1973) 209; M.A. Donelan, J. Hamilton, W.H. Hui, Phil. Trans. R. Soc. London A315 (1985) 509; P.A. Hwang, et al., J. Phys. Oceanogr. 30 (1999) 2753]. There are several ways of the explanation of this phenomenon. One of them (proposed by Banner [M.L. Banner, J. Phys. Oceanogr. 20 (1990) 966]) takes into account the Doppler effect due to surface circular currents generated by underlying waves in the Phillips model.In this article the influence of the Doppler effect on an arbitrary averaged spectrum is considered using both analytic and numerical approaches. Although we mostly concentrated on the very important case of Phillips model, the developed technique and general formula can be used for the analysis of other spectra.For the particular case of Phillips spectra we got analytic asymptotics in the vicinity of spectral maximum and for high frequencies. Results were obtained for two most important angular dependences of the spectra: isotropic and strongly anisotropic. Together with the analytic investigation we performed numerical calculations in a wide range of frequencies. Both high and low frequency asymptotics are in very good agreement with the numerical results.It was shown that at least at low frequencies, the correction to the spectrum due to the Doppler shift is negligible. At high frequencies there is an asymptotic with tail ∼ω⁻³.

Two-photon echo method to determine the transverse relaxation time of excitonic molecules

A nonlinear optical method to determine the transverse relaxation time of excitonic molecules by means of two-photon echo is proposed. In the case of two-photon transition such as excitonic molecule one needs three pulses to obtain an echo signal. When the wave-vector and frequency of the three successive pulses are denoted by k₁,ω₁, k₂,ω₂ and k₃,ω₃, the two-photon echo can be observed in the direction of 4k₂-2k₁-k₃ with frequency 4ω₂-2ω₁-ω₃. Tuning both ω₁ and ω₂ to be two-photon resonant with excitonic molecule, we can satisfy the phase-matching condition rather easily for appropriate values of ω₃ due to the large dispersion of excitonic polaritons. From the correlation trace of the two-photon echo we can determine directly the transverse relaxation time of excitonic molecules.     

A new mechanism of valence change transitions

Within the framework of the s-f hybridization model for f-metals it is shown that Kondo-type s-f scattering and f-electron damping lead to a peak in the f-electron density of states ?_f(ω). This peak arises directly above the chemical potential μ despite the deep position of the initial f-electron level ?_f relative to μ. The reconstruction of ?_f(ω) depends strongly on f-level degeneracy, temperature and pressure and it can initiate continuous or discontinuous valence change transition.     

Regium bonds formed by MX (M═Cu,Ag, Au; X═F,Cl, Br) with phosphine-oxide/phosphinous acid: comparisons between oxygen-shared and phosphine-shared complexes

ABSTRACT

Regium bonds interaction between phosphine oxide (H₃PO), the trans phosphinuous acid (T-PH₂OH), the cis phosphinuous acid (C-PH₂OH) and MX (M═Cu, Ag, Au; X═F, Cl, Br) complexes were investigated by means of ab initio MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ method. For phosphinuous acid and MX complexes, two types of regium bonded interaction (trans and cis complexes) are observed and the two types of structures are very easily transformed from one type to another due to a low energy barrier. The molecular interaction energies are in the order of Au?>?Cu?>?Ag, F?>?Cl?>?Br and increase with the decrease of intermolecular distance R_int. Two resonance-type structures of P:M-X (ωI) ? P–M:X (ωII), O:M-X (ωI) ? O–M:X (ωII) are recognised by the natural resonance theory (NRT) and the natural bond orbitals (NBOs) analysis. The competition between ωI ? ωII resonance structures mainly arises from hyperconjugation interactions, in all phosphor-shared complexes, P–M:X resonance accounts for a larger proportion which leads to the covalent characters. All of complexes have been described in terms of their electron density properties.

Thermal analysis of precipitation reactions in a Ti–25Nb–3Mo–3Zr–2Sn alloy

A study was undertaken on a Ti–25Nb–3Mo–3Zr–2Sn alloy using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in order to improve understanding of the precipitation reactions occurring during aging heat treatments. The investigation showed that isothermal ω phase can be formed in the cast and solution treated alloy at low aging temperatures. An exothermic peak in the temperature range of 300 to 400°C was detected for precipitation of the ω phase, with approximate activation energy of 176 kJ/mol. The ω phase begins to dissolve at temperatures around 400°C and precipitation of the α phase is favoured at higher temperatures between 400°C and 600°C. An exothermic peak with activation energy of 197 kJ/mol was measured for precipitation of the α phase. Deformation resulting in the formation of the stress induced α″ phase altered the DSC heating profile for the solution treated alloy. The exothermic peak associated with precipitation of the ω phase was not detected during heating of the deformed material and increased endothermic heating associated with recovery and recrystallisation was observed.     

On peculiarities of excitation spectrum and anomalies of properties at moderate low temperatures in glasses

Spectrum of low-energy excitations in anharmonic atomic local potentials characteristic of glasses contains both tunneling states with energies $\text{?<?}{}_{\mathrm{?}}\text{?ω}$ and quasilocal vibrations with ??ω(?10?30K, w being a typical energy. A narrow peak of the spectrum density of states at $\text{??ω}$ is associated with a singularity corresponding to critical points of the spectrum. The vibrations can give rise to anomalies in thermal and other properties of glasses observed at moderate low T (1K < T ? w). Both these anomalies and the well-known anomalies at T <~ 1K can be described coherently in the frame of an unified approach. The theory also is able to predict some other anomalies in glasses, e.g. a peak of neutron inelastic scattering with ernergy transfer～ω.

Effect of surface plasmon oscillations on Auger electron emission

The integrated areas of the Al L₂₃VV and O KL₂₃L₂₃ Auger peaks and the Al surface plasmon energy ?ω_S are reported for the Al(001) surface as a function of exposure to O in the exposure range 0–114 L(1 L=1langmuir=10^?6Torr sec). It is shown that for exposures below a critical value of 15 L, ?ω_S is constant within experimental error while the O Auger peak area increases linearly. For exposures above 15 L, ?ω_S decreases linearly from 10.5 eV to 8.5 eV and the O Auger peak area undergoes relatively slow linear increases correspondingly. The Al Auger peak area decreases by 30% per 1 eV decrease of ?ω_S. The results are discussed with reference to theory relating Auger transition intensities to the spectral density function.
