Optical studies, in a broad sense, are one of the most powerful techniques to characterize
new materials and to investigate the properties of solids because electromagnetic waves …

J. HE dielectric constant e and the magnetic permeability n are the fundamental
characteristic quantities which determine the propagation of electromagnetic waves in …

Reflectance and emittance spectroscopy are increasingly important tools in remote sensing
and have been employed in most recent planetary spacecraft missions. They are primarily …

Laser-Assisted Microtechnology deals with laser applications to a wide variety of problems
in microelectronic design and fabrication. It covers micromachining of thin films …

ways in which the magnetic interaction between neutrons and magnetic moments can yield
information on the magnetization densities of thin? lms and multilayers. I commend the …

In this paper, we review some of the key concepts in ultrathin film magnetism which underpin
nanomagnetism. We survey the results of recent experimental and theoretical studies of well …

We review the family of optoelectronic devices whose performance is enhanced by placing
the active device structure inside a Fabry‐Perot resonant microcavity. Such resonant cavity …

We present a new and viable method for optical rectification. This approach has been
demonstrated both theoretically and experimentally and is the basis fot the development of …

The optical properties of Au and Ag are measured between 0.5 and 5.4 eV for temperatures
ranging from 40 to 840K. The analysis of these spectra-also extended to the case of Cu …

The influence of phase-change material composition on amorphous phase stability,
crystallization rate, nucleation probability, optical constants and media noise is reported for …
