We have examined the binding energy of a polaron bound to a hydrogenic donor impurity located in a spherical quantum dot by means of a variational technique for both finite and infinite potential models. The polaronic effect on the binding energy has been considered taking into account the ion-phonon coupling by using the Lee-Low-Pines variational method. The results we have obtained show that ...

Thermodynamical and optical properties of pure and electron beam irradiated (20, 80 and 100 kGy doses) liquid crystalline material cholesteryl pelargonate (nonanoate) have been investigated by differential scanning calorimeter, polarized light microscopy and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. Transition temperatures, enthalpies and entropies are found to be lowered due to the irradiation. A dono...

We consider a model of hydrogen-like artificial molecule formed by two vertically coupled quantum dots in the shape of axially symmetrical thin layers with on-axis single donor impurity in each of them and with the magnetic field directed along the symmetry axis. We present numerical results for energies of some low-lying levels as functions of the magnetic field applied along the symmetry axis...

In the framework of effective-mass envelope function theory, including the effect of Rashba spin-orbit coupling, the binding energy E(b) and spin-orbit split energy Г of the ground state of a hydrogenic donor impurity in AlGaN/GaN triangle-shaped potential heterointerface are calculated. We find that with the electric field of the heterojunction increasing, (1) the effective width of quantum we...

Cholesteryl ethers are nonhydrolyzable tracers of cholesteryl esters. We report here that the ethers are not legitimate tracers of esters in systems involving plasma cholesteryl ester transfer activity. On intravenous injection of doubly labeled high density lipoproteins into rabbits, cholesteryl ester tracer was more rapidly transferred to other lipoprotein fractions than was cholesteryl ether...

The effect of the donor impurity concentration and lifetime charge carriers in a crystalline silicon substrate on maximum power heterojunction thin-film solar cells is studied. model used calculations takes into account features photocurrent generation under conditions medium or high levels injection at an arbitrary ratio between diffusion length thickness semiconductor wafer. proposed techniqu...

The electric field dependence of polarizability and binding energy of shallow-donor impurities in graded quantumwell wires is calculated by a variational method and in the effective-mass approximation. We have considered a finite confinement model and the results are compared with that of infinite confinement potential. Our calculations have revealed the dependence of the impurity binding and p...

conclusions we found acceptable short-term survival in both groups; however, living donor recipients continue to have better long-term patient and graft survival rates. results although there were no significant differences in one-year survival rates of patient and graft between study groups, three-years survival rates of patient and graft were significantly longer in living donor kidney transp...
