Atomic and electronic structure of carbon strings
(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2005)This paper presents an extensive study of various string and tubular structures formed by carbon atomic chains. Our study is based on first-principles pseudopotential plane wave and finite-temperature ab initio molecular ... -
Bounding the Set of Finite Dimensional Quantum Correlations
(American Physical Society, 2015)We describe a simple method to derive high performance semidefinite programing relaxations for optimizations over complex and real operator algebras in finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. The method is very flexible, easy ... -
Chiral single-wall gold nanotubes
(American Physical Society, 2004)The formation of freestanding and tip-suspended chiral-wall (n,m) nanotubes, which were composed of helical atomic strands, from gold atoms was investigated using first-principles calculations, where (n,m) notation defines ... -
Collective oscillations in a two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate with a quantized vortex state
(The American Physical Society, 2005)We study the effect of lower dimensional geometry on the frequency splitting of the quadrupole oscillations of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate due to the presence of a quantized vortex. To study the effect ... -
A critical look at quantum diffusion and some of its interesting aspects
(Springer, 2007)A fresh and critical look has been given to the long-time behaviour of the quantum diffusion problem and a marginally more accurate solution has been obtained as compared to the one reported in the recent literature. Attempt ... -
Cubic-phase zirconia nano-island growth using atomic layer deposition and application in low-power charge-trapping nonvolatile-memory devices
(Institute of Physics Publishing Ltd., 2017)The manipulation of matter at the nanoscale enables the generation of properties in a material that would otherwise be challenging or impossible to realize in the bulk state. Here, we demonstrate growth of zirconia ... -
Direct imaging of localized surface plasmon polaritons
(Optical Society of America, 2011-08)In this Letter, we report on dark field imaging of localized surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in plasmonic waveguiding bands formed by plasmonic coupled cavities. We image the light scattered from SPPs in the plasmonic ... -
Disorder and localization in the lowest Landau level in the presence of dilute point scatterers
(Pergamon Press, 1999)We study the localization properties of a two-dimensional noninteracting electron gas in the presence of randomly distributed short-range scatterers in very high magnetic fields. We evaluate the participation number of the ... -
Does the donor-acceptor concept work for designing synthetic metals? 2. theoretical investigation of copolymers of 4-(dicyanomethylene)-4H-cyclopenta[2, 1-b: 3, 4-b′]dithiophene and 3, 4-(ethylenedioxy)thiophene
(American Chemical Society, 2002)Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed on oligomers of 3,4-(ethylenedioxy)thiophene (EDOT), 4-(dicyanomethylene)-4H-cyclopenta[2,1-b:3,4-b′]dithiophene (CDM), and co-oligomers (CDM/ EDOT). Oligomer ... -
Effect of cross-sectional geometry on the RPA plasmons of quantum wires
(Pergamon Press, 1994)The effect of cross-sectional geometry on both the intrasubband plasmon and intersubband plasmon of a quantum wire is investigated within a two-subband RPA scheme. Exact analytical electronic wavefunctions for circular, ... -
Effective electron-electron interactions and magnetic phase transition in a two-dimensional electron liquid
(Elsevier B.V., 2007)We investigate the spin-dependent effective electron-electron interactions in a uniform system of two-dimensional electrons to understand the spontaneous magnetization expected to occur at very low density. For this purpose, ... -
Electromagnetically induced left-handedness in a dense gas of three-level atoms
(The American Physical Society, 2004)Ways in which a three-level system can be used to change the frequency-dependent magnetic permeability of an atomic gas were discussed. The resulting macroscopic electrodynamics was also discussed. The two levels were ... -
Electronic transport through a kink in an electron waveguide
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 1994)The current-voltage denendence correspondinp to electronic transport through a kink in an electronic waveguide is analyzed. No phase breaking dissipation mechanisms are considered, but the effects of the Coulomb interaction ... -
Experimental investigation of critical Casimir forces in binary liquid mixtures by blinking optical tweezers
(OSA, 2017)We investigate, for the first time and by blinking optical tweezers, the effects of critical Casimir forces (CCFs) on the free dynamics of a pair of spherical colloidal particles, immersed in binary liquid mixtures upon ... -
Fast multipole methods in service of various scientific disciplines
(IEEE, 2014)For more than two decades, several forms of fast multipole methods have been extremely successful in various scientific disciplines. Reduced complexity solutions are obtained for solving different forms of equations that ... -
Fractional quantum Hall states in the vicinity of Mott plateaus
(The American Physical Society, 2010)We perform variational Monte Carlo calculations to show that bosons in a rotating optical lattice will form analogs of fractional quantum Hall states when the tunneling is sufficiently weak compared to the interactions, ... -
Generation of long-living entanglement between two separate three-level atoms
(The American Physical Society, 2005)A scheme for nonconditional generation of long-living maximally entangled states between two spatially well separated atoms is proposed. In the scheme, A-type atoms pass a resonatorlike equipment of dispersing and absorbing ... -
