Nanomechanics has brought mesoscopic physics into the world of vibrations. Because
nanomechanical systems are small, fluctuations are significant, the vibrations already …

The Al x Ga1− x As/GaAs heterostructure system is potentially useful material for high‐speed
digital, high‐frequency microwave, and electro‐optic device applications. Even though the …

Single-atom impurities and other atomic-scale defects can notably alter the local vibrational
responses of solids and, ultimately, their macroscopic properties. Using high-resolution …

CeO 2 nanoparticles (NPs) were green synthesized using Gloriosa superba L. leaf extract.
The synthesized nanoparticles retained the cubic structure, which was confirmed by X-ray …

We construct quantum error-correcting codes that embed a finite-dimensional code space in
the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of rotational states of a rigid body. These codes, which …

Raman spectroscopic studies of alkali and alkaline earth silicate glasses and melts are
reviewed, and the major Raman bands observed for these series are summarized. Vitreous …

This handbook gives a complete and detailed survey of the field of semiconductor physics. It
addresses every fundamental principle, the most important research topics and results, as …

Semiconductor electronics is commonplace in every household. Semiconductor devices
have enabled economically reasonable fiber-based optical communication, optical storage …

A valence-force-field model has been used to study the lattice dynamics of molybdenum
disulfide single molecular layers. A comparison between the room-temperature Raman …

We report measurements of the temperature dependence of the optic index of refraction, n
(T), at several wave lengths in two ferroelectric compounds that have the simple perovskite …
