Double Percolation

The critical phenomena of double percolation on polybutadiene (PB)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) blends loaded with poly-3-hexylthiophene (P3HT) nanofibers is investigated. P3HT nanofibers are selectively localized in the PB phase of the PB/PEG blend, as observed by scanning force microscopy (SFM). Moreover, double percolation is observed, i.e., the percolation of the PB phase in PB/PEG blends and that of the P3HT nanofibers in the PB phase. The percolation threshold (φcI) and critical exponent (tI) of the percolation of the PB phase in PB/PEG blends are estimated to be 0.57 and 1.3, respectively, indicating that the percolation exhibits two-dimensional properties. For the percolation of P3HT nanofibers in the PB phase, the percolation threshold (φcII) and critical exponent (tII) are estimated to be 0.02 and 1.7, respectively. In this case, the percolation exhibits properties in between two and three dimensions. In addition, we investigated the dimensionality with respect to the carrier transport in the P3HT nanofiber network. From the temperature dependence of the field-effect mobility estimated by field-effect transistor (FET) measurements, the carrier transport was explained by a three-dimensional variable range hopping (VRH) model.

HCl-doped polyaniline powder (HCl-PANI) was synthesized by using a polymerization procedure. Fe nanoparticles were then deposited on the HCl-PANI at room temperature by direct current magnetron sputtering. After this process the HCl-PANI-Fe composite was obtained. Fe nanoparticle size in the composite is about 100 nm. HCl-PANI structure is not influenced by the Fe nanoparticles. The composite pellet has room temperature ferromagnetism and a conductivity of 0.25 S/cm. Temperature dependence of the conductivity reveals that a carrier transport mechanism in the composite is three-dimensional variable range hopping. Thermogravimetric analysis reveals that a weight loss of the HCl-PANI-Fe composite is smaller than that of the HCl-PANI for the same heating temperature when the temperature exceeds 230°C.

A pair-correlation function ansatz, previously used in the derivation of the Ising model critical exponent η for the square lattice from a criticality equation within the i-δ approximation, is investigated further. Various methods are used to calculate the multispin correlation functions entering the criticality equation. The calculations are extended to the three-dimensional cubic lattices. It is found that the values obtained for η are relatively insensitive to the specific method used. In two dimensions, η takes the values 0.2506 (i-δ method), 0.2471, and 0.2490 (renormalized Hamiltonian methods), thereby remaining within 1.2% of the exact value 1/4. In three dimensions, η ranges from 0.030 to 0.075, being of the same order of magnitude as the series value 0.041 ± 0.01.

Beam Diffraction

It is quite simple (in the transmission electron microscope) to obtain convergent-beam patterns from the surface of a bulk crystal. The beam is focussed onto the surface at near grazing incidence (figure 1) and if the surface is flat the appropriate pattern is obtained in the diffraction plane (figure 2). Such patterns are potentially valuable for the characterization of surfaces just as normal convergent-beam patterns are valuable for the characterization of crystals.There are, however, several important ways in which reflection diffraction from surfaces differs from the more familiar electron diffraction in transmission.GeometryIn reflection diffraction, because of the surface, it is not possible to describe the specimen as periodic in three dimensions, nor is it possible to associate diffraction with a conventional three-dimensional reciprocal lattice.

AbstractThe molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)-based photodetectors are facing two challenges: the insensitivity to polarized light and the low photoresponsivity. Herein, three-dimensional (3D) field-effect transistors (FETs) based on monolayer MoS2 were fabricated by applying a self–rolled-up technique. The unique microtubular structure makes 3D MoS2 FETs become polarization sensitive. Moreover, the microtubular structure not only offers a natural resonant microcavity to enhance the optical field inside but also increases the light-MoS2 interaction area, resulting in a higher photoresponsivity. Photoresponsivities as high as 23.8 and 2.9 A/W at 395 and 660 nm, respectively, and a comparable polarization ratio of 1.64 were obtained. The fabrication technique of the 3D MoS2 FET could be transferred to other two-dimensional materials, which is very promising for high-performance polarization-sensitive optical and optoelectronic applications.

Abstract We study the torus partition functions of free bosonic CFTs in two dimensions. Integrating over Narain moduli defines an ensemble-averaged free CFT. We calculate the averaged partition function and show that it can be reinterpreted as a sum over topologies in three dimensions. This result leads us to conjecture that an averaged free CFT in two dimensions is holographically dual to an exotic theory of three-dimensional gravity with U(1)c×U(1)c symmetry and a composite boundary graviton. Additionally, for small central charge c, we obtain general constraints on the spectral gap of free CFTs using the spinning modular bootstrap, construct examples of Narain compactifications with a large gap, and find an analytic bootstrap functional corresponding to a single self-dual boson.

AbstractThe d-band-filling of transition metals in complex oxides plays an essential role in determining their structural, electronic and magnetic properties. Traditionally, at the oxide heterointerface, band-filling control has been achieved via electrostatic modification in the structure of field-effect transistors or electron transfer, which is limited to the quasi-two-dimension at the interface. Here we report a three-dimensional (3D) band-filling control by changing the local lattice coordination in a designed oxide heterostructure. At the LaCoO3/LaTiO3 heterointerface, due to the Fermi level mismatch, electrons transfer from LaTiO3 to LaCoO3. This triggers destabilisation of the CoO6 octahedrons, i.e. the formation of lattice configurations with a reduced Co valence. The associated oxygen migration results in the 3D topotactic phase transition of LaCoO3. Tuned by the thickness of LaTiO3, different crystalline phases and band-fillings of Co occur, leading to the emergence of different magnetic ground states.
