ABSTRACTA large class of new layered semiconductors — lead iodide compounds — is of great interest because of possible optoelectronic applications due to pronounced excitonic effects. These compounds may be regarded as naturally grown semiconductor/insulator superlat-tices, with perovskite lead iodide (semiconductor) layers sandwiched by alkylammonium (insulator) layers. Exciton binding energies and oscillator strength in these structures are enhanced due to the so-called “dielectric confinement” caused by large difference between dielectric constants of adjoining layers. The binding energies, wave functions,& diamagnetic coefficient of excitons in these naturally grown superlattices are calculated with allowance for the image potential and the superlattice structure of the compounds. The localization of excitons in lead iodide layers causes also a strong dependence of a polariton spike in reflection spectra on the polarization of electromagnetic wave. The results obtained are in agreement with the experimental data.

In a comprehensive study, structural properties, electronic structure and optical response of crystalline o-phenanthroline were investigated. Our results show that in generalized gradient approximation (GGA) approximation, o-phenanthroline is a direct bandgap semiconductor of 2.60 eV. In the framework of many-body approach, by solving the Bethe–Salpeter equation (BSE), dielectric properties of crystalline o-phenanthroline were studied and compared with phenanthrene. Highly anisotropic components of the imaginary part of the macroscopic dielectric function in o-phenanthroline show four main excitonic features in the bandgap region. In comparison to phenanthrene, these excitons occur at lower energies. Due to smaller bond lengths originated from the polarity nature of bonds in presence of nitrogen atoms, denser packing, and therefore, a weaker screening effect, exciton binding energies in o-phenanthroline were found to be larger than those in phenanthrene. Our results showed that in comparison to the independent-particle picture, excitonic effects highly redistribute the oscillator strength.

We have studied the parallel magneto-transport in DQW-structures of two different potential shapes: quasi-rectangular and quasi-triangular. The quantum beats effect was observed in Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations for both types of the DQW structures in perpendicular magnetic filed arrangement. We developed a special scheme for the Landau levels energies calculation by means of which we carried out the necessary simulations of beating effect. In order to obtain the agreement between our experimental data and the results of simulations, we introduced two different quasi-Fermi levels which characterize symmetric and anti-symmetric states in DQWs. The existence of two different quasi Fermi-Levels simply means, that one can treat two sub-systems (charge carriers characterized by symmetric and anti-symmetric wave functions) as weakly interacting and having their own rate of establishing the equilibrium state.


The r. m. s. radius and the binding energy of oxygen 16 are calculated for several different internueleon potentials. These potentials all fit the low-energy data for two nucleons, they have hard cores of differing radii, and they include the Gammel-Thaler potential (core radius 0·4 fermi). The calculated r. m. s. radii range from 1·5 f for a potential with core radius 0·2 f to 2·0 f for a core radius 0·6 f. The value obtained from electron scattering experiments is 2·65 f. The calculated binding energies range from 256 MeV for a core radius 0·2 f to 118 MeV for core 0·5 f. The experimental value of binding energy is 127·3 MeV. The 25% discrepancy in the calculated r. m. s. radius may be due to the limitations of harmonic oscillator wave functions used in the unperturbed system.

AbstractAtomistic model has been applied to study various cation dopants, namely Cu, Ag, B, Al, Ga and In in ZnGeP2. The pairwise interatomic potential terms representing the interaction of dopants with the host lattice ions are derived using first principle methods. Defect calculations based on Mott-Littleton methodology predict small binding energies for Cu and Ag substituting Zn in the lattice which are in agreement with the available experimental data. The group III dopants (i.e. B, Al, Ga and In) at the Ge site are predicted to have large binding energies for a hole except B which shows a distinct behavior. This may be due to large mismatch in atomic sizes of B and Ge. At the Zn site, the calculated binding energies of the group III dopants place donor levels in the middle of the band gap.

Abstract We study a heavy-heavy-light three-body system confined to one space dimension in the regime where an excited state in the heavy-light subsystems becomes weakly bound. The associated two-body system is characterized by (i) the structure of the weakly-bound excited heavy-light state and (ii) the presence of deeply-bound heavy-light states. The consequences of these aspects for the behavior of the three-body system are analyzed. We find a strong indication for universal behavior of both three-body binding energies and wave functions for different weakly-bound excited states in the heavy-light subsystems.

Abstract The method of spectral Fourier microscopy was used to study the reflection spectra with an angular resolution of submicron periodic gratings based on amorphous and crystalline Ge2Sb2Te5. The form of the dispersion curves of quasi-waveguide modes in the structures under study was established. The experimental data were compared with the calculations of dispersion curves in synthesized diffraction gratings. Reasonable agreement between theoretical and experimental data was obtained.

Performing a fit procedure on the hyperon masses, we first determine the free parameters in the Cornell-like hypercentral potential between the constituent quarks of hyperons in their ground state. To this end, using the variational principle, we apply the hyperspherical Hamiltonian including the Cornell-like hypercentral potential and the perturbation potentials due to the spin–spin, spin–isospin and isospin–isospin interactions between constituent quarks. In the following, we compute the hyperon magnetic moments as well as radiative decay widths of spin-3/2 hyperons using the spin-flavor wave function of hyperons. Our analysis shows acceptable consistencies between theoretical results and available experimental data. This leads to reliable wave functions for hyperons at their ground state.

The electric and magnetic transitions in the [Formula: see text]Mg nucleus are studied based on the calculations of the longitudinal and the transverse electron scattering form factors. The universal sd-shell model Hamiltonian (USDA) is used for calculations. The wave functions of radial single-particle matrix elements are calculated using the Skyrme potential. For the longitudinal form factors, a good agreement is obtained between the calculations and the experimental data. For the transverse form factors, the effective [Formula: see text] factors are made as adjustable parameters in order to describe the experimental data.
