The third-generation gravitational wave detectors are under development by operating the detector in cryogenic temperature to reduce the thermal noise. Silicon and sapphire are promising candidate materials for the test masses and…
We have studied the resistivity, $\rho$, of a two-dimensional electron system in silicon in the temperature range 200 mK < T < 7.5 K at zero magnetic field at low electron densities, when the electron system is in the insulating regime. Our…
The thermal boundary resistance (Kapitza resistance) of (001) twist grain boundaries in silicon nanowires depends on the mismatch angle. This dependence is systematically investigated by means of nonequilibrium molecular dynamics…
It is demonstrated that a {\veck}-dependence of the hybridization matrix element between $f$- and conduction electrons can give rise to an anisotropic hybridization gap of heavy fermions if the filling of electrons corresponds to that of…
With a surge of interest in spintronics, the manipulation and detection of colossal magnetoresistance in quasi-two-dimensional layered magnetic materials have become a key focus, driven by their relatively scarce occurrence compared to…
Piezoelectrics are materials that linearly deform in response to an applied electric field. As a fundamental prerequisite, piezoelectric material must possess a non centrosymmetric crystal structure. For more than a century, this remains…
Silicon dioxide and silicon (SiO$_{2}$/Si) interface plays a very important role in semiconductor industry. However, at nanoscale, its interfacial thermal properties haven't been well understood so far. In this paper, we systematically…
In this paper we report an exhaustive experimental work on magnetoresistance effects found in a system in which a large number of nanocontacts are produced between oxidized Fe fine particles. We have obtained the following performances: i)…
Single-phase multiferroic materials are usually considered useless because of the weak magnetoelectric effects, low operating temperature, and small electric polarization induced by magnetic orders. As a result, current studies on…
Direct electronic structure measurements of a variety of the colossal magnetoresistive oxides show the presence of a pseudogap at the Fermi energy E_F which drastically suppresses the electron spectral function at E_F. The pseudogap is a…
Within massive gravity, we construct a gravity dual for insulator/metal phase transition and colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) effect found in some manganese oxides materials. In heavy graviton limit, a remarkable magnetic-field-sensitive DC…
Large-volume deployment of Si-based Seebeck generators can be foreseen only if polycrystalline rather than single crystalline materials can be actually used. The aim of this study was therefore to verify whether polycrystalline Si films…
The search for room-temperature superconducting materials has been at the center of modern research for decades. The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity, under extreme pressure in hydrogen-rich materials, is a tremendous…
Size effects on vibrational modes in complex crystals remain largely unexplored, despite their importance in a variety of electronic and energy conversion technologies. Enabled by advances in a four-probe thermal transport measurement…
The anisotropy of electrical resistivity was measured in parent compounds of the iron-arsenic high temperature superconductors, AEFe2As2 with Alkali Earth elements AE=Ca,Sr, Ba. Measurements were performed using both the Montgomery…
We have constructed a holographic superfluid with gauge-axion coupling. Depending on whether the coupling is positive or negative, the system displays metallic or insulating behavior in its normal state. A significant feature of the system…
During the fabrication process of large scale silicene through common chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique, polycrystalline films are quite likely to be produced, and the existence of Kapitza thermal resistance along grain boundaries…
Hyperbolic metamaterials show exceptional optical properties, such as near-perfect broadband absorption, due to their geometrically-engineered optical anisotropy. Many of their proposed applications, such as thermophotovoltaics or radiative…
Type-II multiferroic materials, in which ferroelectric polarization is induced by inversion non-symmetric magnetic order, promise new and highly efficient multifunctional applications based on the mutual control of magnetic and electric…
The phenomenon of high temperature superconductivity, approaching room temperature, has been realized in a number of hydrogen-dominant alloy systems under high pressure conditions1-12. A significant discovery in reaching room temperature…
