ABSTRACTPhotoluminescence from porous silicon was studied in a helium atmosphere and at high magnetic fields. In a magnetic field, the spectral peak had a negligible shift, amounting to +0.2 ±0.5 meV at B= 18T. If quantum confinement is the major effect, then the conduction electron would be confined to a diameter of less than 3.5 nm.

ABSTRACTTwo components of the electroluminescence (EL) from porous silicon light emitting diode (LED) devices have been observed. A slower component and a faster component have been identified. The slower component has a spectral peak shifted to the red from the corresponding photoluminescence (PL) spectrum. The faster component has a spectral peak well in the infrared (IR). Optical and electrical measurements of these two components are discussed. The temperature dependence of the two EL components are presented and contrasted. Our measurements demonstrate that the two EL components and the PL result from recombination in different parts of the porous silicon structure. As the temperature is reduced below room temperature the slower EL exhibits a decrease in intensity at relatively high temperatures, suggesting a freeze out of electrical carriers due to quantum confinement, resulting in a much reduced electrical excitation of the EL.

Splitting Factor

The magnetic breakdown effect can be seen by the growth of new frequencies in the quantum oscillations in clean metals as a function of magnetic field. We have studied the variation of the amplitudes in the quantum oscillations in the resistance (the Shubnikov-de Haas effect) as a function of angle in the quasi-two dimensional-organic conductor κ-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu(NCS)2. The measurements were made by means of a radio frequency (rf) tank circuit (~ 50 MHz) at very high magnetic fields(50T-60T) and low temperature(500 mK). The geometry of the rf excitation we used excited in-plane currents, and therefore we measured the in-plane resistivity. In contrast to conventional transport measurements that measure the inter-plane resistivity, the in-plane resistivity is dominated by the magnetic breakdown frequencies. As a result we measured much higher breakdown frequency amplitudes than conventional transport experiments. As is expected, the angular dependence of the Shubnikov-de Haas frequencies have a 1/cosθ behavior. This is due to the change of the cross sectional area of the tubular Fermi surface as the angle with respect to the magnetic field is changed. The amplitude of the oscillations changes due to the spin splitting factor which takes into account the ratio between the spin splitting and the energy spacing of the Landau levels which also has 1/cosθ behavior. We show that our data agree with the semi-classical theory (Lifshitz-Kosevich formula).

Effect of magnetic field on electrochemiluminescence of carbazole has been studied in N,N dimethylformamide. The emission intensity increases with increasing applied field with a tendency to decrease at high magnetic fields. An explanation involving perturbation of triplet–triplet annihilation rate is proposed.

The advantages of high magnetic fields in tokamaks are reviewed, and why they are important in leading to more compact tokamaks. A brief explanation is given of what limits the magnetic field in a tokamak, and why high temperature superconductors (HTSs) are a game changer, not just because of their higher magnetic fields but also for reasons of higher current density and higher operating temperatures. An accelerated pathway to fusion energy is described, defined by the SPARC and ARC tokamak designs. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue ‘Fusion energy using tokamaks: can development be accelerated?’.

General Method

It was theoretically predicted more than 20 years ago [A. G. Lebed and K. Yamaji, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 2697 (1998)], that a triplet quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) superconductor could restore its superconducting state in parallel magnetic fields, which are higher than its upper critical magnetic field, [Formula: see text]. It is very likely that, recently, such phenomenon has been experimentally discovered in the Q2D superconductor UTe2 by Nicholas Butch, Sheng Ran, and their colleagues and has been confirmed by Japanese–French team. We review our previous theoretical results using such a general method that it describes the reentrant superconductivity in the abovementioned compound and will hopefully describes the similar phenomena, which can be discovered in other Q2D superconductors.

This paper investigates how applying high magnetic fields influences the crystallographic orientations of the primary and eutectic phases, and their relationship, in a binary eutectic alloy. At 0 T, the primary MnSb phase in hypoeutectic Mn–Sb showed a random orientation, but at 3, 6, 9 and 11.5 T, its c axis was perpendicular to the magnetic field direction. In all cases, the eutectic MnSb phases showed the same orientations as their neighboring primary MnSb phase, on which they nucleated and grew. With high magnetic fields, the c axes of the eutectic and primary MnSb phases were oriented perpendicular to the magnetic field direction. The results show that applying a high magnetic field during solidification is a way of controlling the crystallographic orientation of both the primary and the eutectic phases in eutectic alloys.

The Magnetic Field

The near band-edge polarized optical optical absortion spectra of EuTe at low temperatures and high magnetic fields were investigated. The samples were grown by MBE on BaF 2 substrates, and the thickness varied in the 0.18-2.0 μm range. At high magnetic fields, the well-known 4f7→4f65d(t2g) optical transition splits into two well resolved lines at σ+ and two lines for σ-. These lines can be described by localized transitions tunable by the d-f exchange interaction, with a quadratic dependence on the intensity of the external magnetic field. Comparative measurements of the magnetization and the optical absorption as a function temperature provides a further test of the model of a localized excitation extending over a few lattice sites.
