Unprecedented transport efficiency is demonstrated for electrons on the surface of micron-scale superfluid helium filled channels by co-opting silicon processing technology to construct the equivalent of a charge-coupled device (CCD).…
The properties of Shockley-type interface states between $\pi$-conjugated organic molecular layers and metal surfaces are investigated by time-resolved two-photon photoemission experiments and density functional theory. For perylene- and…
We study, both analytically and numerically, a spinmotive force arising from inherent magnetic energy of a domain wall in a wedged ferromagnetic nanowire. In a spatially-nonuniform nanowire, domain walls are subjected to an effective…
Phase structure of rapidly quenched solid helium samples is studied by the NMR technique. The pulse NMR method is used for measurements of spin-lattice $T_1$ and spin-spin $T_2$ relaxation times and spin diffusion coefficient $D$ for all…
The samples of hcp solid helium (1% $^3$He in $^4$He) are studied by NMR technique. The samples are grown by the blocking capillary method at different growth rates (about 8, 2, and 0.08 mK/s). The NMR technique is used for phase…
We propose a method to study dynamical response of a quantum system by evolving it with an imaginary-time dependent Hamiltonian. The leading non-adiabatic response of the system driven to a quantum-critical point is universal and…
