X-ray diffraction multipole refinements of single-crystalline Mg$_x$Al$_{1-x}$B$_2$ and polarization-dependent near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure at the B 1$s$ edge reveal a strongly anisotropic electronic structure. Comparing the…

The first angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy results from MgB$_2$ single crystals are reported. Close to the $\Gamma$K and $\Gamma$M directions, three distinct dispersions are observed approaching the Fermi energy, as can be assigned…

(Abridged abstract) Alloyed MgB2 differs from pure forms in that diffusion is needed to distribute the alloying elements homogeneously. Williamson-Hall analyses of x-ray diffraction peaks showed that Mg1-xAlxB2 samples made by a typical…

We report the successful imaging of flux vortices in single crystal MgB2 using transmission electron microscopy. The specimen was thinned to electron transparency (350 nm thickness) by focussed ion beam milling. An artefact of the thinning…

The structural properties of MgB2 superconductors have been analyzed by means of convergent-beam electron diffraction, high-resolution transmission-electron microscopy, and theoretical simulations. The MgB2 crystal has been identified to…

Images of flux vortices in superconductors acquired by transmission electron microscopy should allow a quantitative determination of their magnetic structure but so far, only visual comparisons have been made between experimental images and…

The local structure in high temperature superconductors is nowadays considered a key point for understanding superconductivity mechanism. MgB2 has a well-known simple structure; but its local structure remains quite unexplored. This is due…

We present a first principles investigation of the lattice dynamics and electron-phonon coupling of the superconductor MgB_2 and the isostructural AlB_2 within the framework of density functional perturbation theory using a mixed-basis…

We present an attempt of maximum entropy principle to determine valence quark distributions in the proton at very low resolution scale $Q_0^2$. The initial three valence quark distributions are obtained with limited dynamical information…

Electron microscopy is a powerful tool for studying the properties of materials down to their atomic structure. In many cases, the quantitative interpretation of images requires simulations based on atomistic structure models. These…

We present a comparison of electronic structure of MgB2 and TaB2, the two new superconductors, as well as VB2, calculated using full-potential, density- functional-based methods in P6/mmm crystal structure. Our results, described in terms…

By means of density functional theory the electronic structure of the MgB2 superconductor was characterised and compared with that of the related iso-structural systems: AlB2, ZrB2, NbB2, and TaB2. Using the full-potential linearized…

X-ray diffraction with photon energies near the Ru L$_2$-absorption edge was used to detect resonant reflections characteristic of a G-type superstructure in RuSr$_2$GdCu$_2$O$_8$ single crystals. A polarization analysis confirms that these…

Electron diffraction through a thin patterned silicon membrane can be used to create complex spatial modulations in electron distributions by varying the intensity of different reflections using parameters such as crystallographic…

Understanding structure at the atomic scale is fundamental for the development of materials with improved properties. Compared to other probes providing atomic resolution, electrons offer the strongest interaction in combination with…

We performed point-contact spectroscopy on the binary superconductor MgB$_2$. The differential conductance shows gap-related structures which vary in width and position from contact to contact. The distribution of energy gaps shows a…

The optical and electronic properties of Mg-Ti hydrides are studied using first-principles density functional theory. Dielectric functions are calculated for MgxTi(1-x)H2 with compositions x = 0.5, 0.75, and 0.875. The structure is that of…
