چکیده

Sr3(Ru(1-x)Mnx)2O7, in which 4d-Ru is substituted by the more localized 3d-Mn, is studied by x-ray dichroism and spin-resolved density functional theory. We find that Mn impurities do not exhibit the same 4+ valence of Ru, but act as 3+ acceptors; the extra eg electron occupies the in-plane 3d(x2-y2) orbital instead of the expected out-of-plane 3d(3z2-r2). We propose that the 3d-4d interplay, via the ligand oxygen orbitals, is responsible for this crystal-field level inversion and the material's transition to an antiferromagnetic, possibly orbitally ordered, low-temperature state.

A novel lightly doped drain and source Carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) with negative differential resistance

In this paper, we propose and evaluate a novel design of a lightly doped drain and source carbon nanotube field effect transistor (LDDS-CNTFET) with a negative differential resistance (NDR) characteristic, called negative differential resistance LDDS-CNTFET (NDR-LDDS-CNTFET). The device was simulated by using a non equilibrium Green’s function method. To achieve this phenomenon, we have created...
