Structural characterization and X-ray analysis by Williamson–Hall method for Erbium doped Aluminum Nitride nanoparticles,synthesized using inert gas condensation technique

We have synthesized AlN nanoparticles (NPs) doped in-situ with Er (AlN:Er) using inert gas condensation technique. Using x-ray diffraction (XRD) peak broadening analysis with the Williamson–Hall (W–H) Uniform Deformation Model (UDM) the crystallite size of the NPs and the strain in NPs were found to be 80±38 nm and 3.07×10⁻³±0.9×10⁻³ respectively. In comparison, using the Debye–Scherrer's (DS) formula, we have inferred that the crystallite size of the NPs was 23±6 nm and the average strain was 4.3×10⁻³±0.4×10⁻³. The scanning electron microscopy images show that the NPs are spherical and have an average diameter of ∼300 nm. The crystallite size is smaller than the size of the NPs revealing their polycrystalline behavior. In addition, the NPs strain, stress and energy density were also calculated using W–H analysis combined with the Uniform Deformation Stress Model (UDSM) and the Uniform Deformation Energy Density Model (UDEDM). Suggested by the spherical geometry and polycrystalline nature of the AlN NPs, the strain computed from UDM, UDSM and UDEDM were in agreement confirming an isotropic mechanical nature of the particle. Luminescence measurements revealed the temperature dependence of the optical emission of the Er³⁺ ions, confirming the use of AlN:Er NPs for nano-scale temperature sensing.     

Reprint of : Spin polarization induced by an electric field in the presence of weak localization effects

We evaluate the spin polarization (Edelstein or inverse spin galvanic effect) and the spin Hall current induced by an applied electric field by including the weak localization corrections for a two-dimensional electron gas. We show that the weak localization effects yield logarithmic corrections to both the spin polarization conductivity relating the spin polarization and the electric field and to the spin Hall angle relating the spin and charge currents. The renormalization of both the spin polarization conductivity and the spin Hall angle combine to produce a zero correction to the total spin Hall conductivity as required by an exact identity. Suggestions for the experimental observation of the effect are given.     

The reversal of magnetization driven by the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in Bi2FeMnO6

Ab initio calculations show that the coupling between antiferrodistortive (AFD) distortions and magnetization in perovskite Bi₂FeMnO₆ is prohibited to make magnetization rotate as effective Hubbard parameter is larger than 2.7 eV, where anomalies in antiferromagnetic (AFM) vectors and band gap varying with on-site Coulomb interaction can be observed. This coupling is attributed to the antisymmetric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction driven by the e_g-e_g states AFM interaction and charge redistribution with respect to different AFD distortions.     

Magnetic properties of Mn-rich Rh2Mn1+xSn1−x Heusler alloys

X-ray powder diffraction and magnetization measurements have been carried out on Rh₂Mn_1+xSn_1−x (0≤x≤0.3) alloys. The alloys, which crystallize in the L2₁ structure, were found to exhibit ferromagnetic behavior. The lattice constant a at room temperature decreases with increasing x, whereas the Curie temperature T_C decreases linearly. At 5 K the magnetic moment per formula unit first increases with increasing x and then saturates for x≥0.2. The experimental results are discussed in terms of the influence of the Mn-Mn exchange interactions between the Mn atoms on the Sn and Mn sites.     

“Eigen-Operator” Method of the Square of Schroedinger Operator in Interaction Picture and Its Application in Describing Parametric Amplifiers

We extend the method of searching “eigen-operator” of the square of the Schroedinger operator to the interaction picture, which not only helps to construct Hamiltonians of two kinds of parametric amplifiers but also leads to a new uncertainty relation regarding to the free Hamiltonian and the interacting Hamiltonian.

KLL dielectronic recombination process of He-like to O-like xenon ions

In this work,the KLL dielectronic recombination (DR) processes of highly charged He-like to O-like xenon ions are studied systematically by using a DR program,which is based on the multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method.The KLL DR resonant energies and the corresponding resonant strengths are calculated,emphasizing especially the effect of the Breit interaction on the DR strengths.The theoretical KLL DR spectra are obtained and compared with the latest experimental results obtained in the Shanghai Electron Beam Ion Trap.

Physiochemical and cytotoxicity study of TPGS stabilized nanoemulsion designed by ultrasonication method

The main aim of the present work was to prepare TPGS stabilized D-α-Tocopherol, lemon oil, tween-80, and water nanoemulsion by low cost and highly effective sonication method. The prepared nanoemulsion showed good stability for 60 days at variable temperature conditions i.e. 4, 25 and 37 °C. The tolerance of the prepared nanoemulsion to salt (50 mM–500 mM) and pH (pH 2–pH 7.4) was also studied. The morphology and droplet size of pure and quinine loaded nanoemulsion was characterized with transmission electron microscopy. The prepared formulation was transparent and the obtained average particle size ranged between 25 nm and 35 nm. The nanoemulsion was found to be non toxic. The cell viability study of pure nanoemulsion carried out on Hep G2 cells revealed that the cell viability was 100%. The formulation further exhibited high quinine loading and release capacity with cumulative release up to 76 ± 2% and 65 ± 2% at pH 7.4 and pH 5.5 respectively. The interaction between quinine and vitamins (riboflavin, thiamine and biotin) was also carried out (aqueous medium). The study revealed that riboflavin had strong interaction with quinine and vitamins vis-à-vis thiamine and biotin.
