The effect of pH on the relative distribution of pyridoxal structures in aqueous solution was examined by fluorescence spectroscopy. The hemiacetal structure, which is the predominant species at neutral pH, exhibits a symmetrical emission band at 378 rnp and is characterized by a quantum yield of 0.08. Luminescence studies at low temperature (77” K) have permitted the analysis of the phosphores...

Abstract: Chains of magnetic atoms placed on the surface of an s-wave superconductor with large spin-orbit coupling provide a promising platform for the realization of topological superconducting states characterized by the presence of Majorana zero-energy modes. In a recent work, we study the properties of onedimensional chains of Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states induced by magnetic impurities using a ...

Among graphene-like family, phosphorene is a typical semiconducting layered material, which can also be a superconductor in low temperature. Applying pressure or tension on phosphorene lattice results in changing the hopping terms, which change the energy bands of the material. In this research we use the tight-binding Hamiltonian, including relevant hopping terms, to calculate energy bands of ...

Many new particles, mostly hadrons, are produced in high-energy collisions between atomic nuclei. The most popular models describing the hadron-production process based on creation, evolution and decay of resonances, strings or quark–gluon plasma. validity these is under vivid discussion, it seems that a common framework for this discussion missing. Here, first time, we explicitly introduce dia...

Periodic piezoelectric beams have been used for broadband vibration energy harvesting in recent years. In this paper, a periodic folded piezoelectric beam (PFPB) is introduced. The PFPB has special features that distinguish it from other periodic piezoelectric beams. The Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is used to calculate the first two band gaps andtwelve natural frequencies of the PF...

in this work facile sol-gel (pechni) method has been successfully established to synthesize zn4b6o13 nanocrystals which have cubic crystals with lattice parameter: a =7.48 a. the structure and morphology of the obtained material were studied by x-ray diffraction (xrd), infrared spectra (ir), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and photoluminescence analysis. the experimental results show a band ...

The local dispersion relation of a photonic crystal waveguide is directly determined by phase-sensitive near-field microscopy. We readily demonstrate the propagation of Bloch waves by probing the band diagram also beyond the first Brillouin zone. Both TE and TM polarized modes were distinguished in the experimental band diagram. Only the TE polarized defect mode has a distinctive Bloch wave cha...
