The paper reports on quantum beats observed in the photoluminescence kinetics of a single layer of the InPself-assembled quantum dots in a magnetic field. It is found that the beats arise only after removal of excesscharges from the quantum dots by an external electrical bias. The quantum beats are shown to be related to theinterference of the excitonic fine-structure states split by the magnetic-field. The dependences of the beatcharacteristics on the magnetic-field strength and orientation are studied. Theoretical analysis based on a modelspin Hamiltonian has allowed us to describe adequately the shape of the oscillating component of the signal.We have determined the values of the electron g-factor components and estimated the spread and the meanvalue of the hole g factor, as well as of the electron-hole exchange splitting parameters.

Nuclear-spin heat capacities of submonolayer solid 3He adsorbed on a graphite surface are measured down to 100 μK, a factor of 20 lower temperature than in previous works. This system is one of the most ideal two-dimensional quantum spin systems (S=1/2). In a wide areal density region (6.1 nm-2<~ρ<~8.7 nm-2), anomalous temperature dependencies of the heat capacity, C∝Tα(-1.6≲α≲-0.7), are observed in a temperature range over two orders of magnitude (0.1 mK<~T<~20 mK) instead of the expected high-temperature behavior (α=-2) for localized spins. The α value shows a complicated density dependence which is accompanied by a density variation of a heat capacity isotherm at an extremely low temperature (=0.2 mK). This anomaly is similar to the previously observed high-temperature behavior (α≈-1) of the lowest density solid in the second layer. Although quantitative explanations are lacking for these anomalies, they are likely due to the high frustration caused by competing ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic multiple-spin exchange interactions at least up to the six-spin exchange. We find that the excess heat-capacity (Cex) due to the amorphous 3He adsorbed on substrate heterogeneities is certainly not an origin of the anomalous behavior in C of the uniform submonolayer. Only at and below the density for the sqrt[3]×sqrt[3] commensurate phase (ρ=6.4 nm-2) heat capacity bumps at around 20 mK are observed. We suggest the possibility of spin-polaron effects caused by delocalized vacancies to explain this anomaly.

The vortex-liquid and vortex-solid phases in single crystals of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ placed in tilted magnetic fields are studied by in-plane resistivity measurements using the Corbino geometry to avoid spurious surface-barrier effects. It was found that the anisotropy of the vortex-solid phase increases with temperature and exhibits a maximum at T≈0.97Tc. In contrast, the anisotropy of the vortex-liquid phase rises monotonically across the whole measured temperature range. The observed behavior is discussed in the context of dimensional crossover and thermal fluctuations of vortices in the strongly layered system.

An anomalous phonon peak that appears only in the superconducting state has been reported for nonmagnetic intermetallic superconductor RNi211B2C (R=Y, Lu). In the present paper, we shall demonstrate that another rare-earth borocarbide ErNi211B2C seems to show similar phonon anomalies. A spectral weight transfer from the above-lying TA phonon mode to the aforementioned peak was rather small, but it is consistent with the theoretical prediction for the system with smaller 2Δ/Eph ratio. Combining the present results with those observed in the other borocarbide systems, we suggest that such a phonon anomaly might be a common phenomenon for superconductors with a strong nesting feature of the Fermi surface.

We report observations of the intensity and phase transmission spectra related to phonon-polariton propagation using coherent far-infrared radiation for a high-quality ferroelectric bismuth titanate crystal plate. In order to determine the polariton-dispersion relation, the phase delay was determined minutely as a function of the THz radiation frequency in the region between 3 and 100 cm-1. The anisotropy of polariton dispersion relation was also successfully determined on the c plate simply by switching the polarization direction of an incident beam from E∥a to E∥b. The observed polariton dispersion relations are consistently reproduced by the calculation using Kurosawa’s formula.

We synthesized single crystalline MgB2 under ambient pressure by using conventional materials and equipment. The single crystals of MgB2 were of good quality, where the crystal structure refinements were successfully converged with R=0.020. The measurements of the magnetic properties yielded a sharp superconducting transition at 38 K with transition width ΔTc=0.8 K. The upper critical field for applied field parallel to the ab plane (Hc2ab) reveals a positive curvature, while Hc2 parallel to the c axis (Hc2c) increases linearly in temperature dependence, which yields a temperature dependence of the superconducting anisotropy ratio of γ=Hc2ab/Hc2c with γ∼1 near Tc and 4.0 at 25 K.

High-pressure experiments on methane hydrate were performed in the pressure range of 0.2–42 GPa using diamond-anvil cell. In situ x-ray-diffraction study revealed that methane hydrate of a high-pressure form, filled ice structure, survived up to 42 GPa. Pressure versus volume data were obtained in the pressure region. The filled ice structure represented large anisotropic compressibility and the volume change attained 40% at 42 GPa. The anisotropic compressibility was explained by the characteristic channel framework of the filled ice structure.

The EI5 and EI6 centers are typical intrinsic defects in radiation-damaged and semi-insulating 4H-SiC. So far, their origins have been assigned to positively charged carbon vacancies (VC+) and silicon antisites (SiC+), respectively. However, our complete set of 29Si hyperfine (HF) data clearly reveals that both the centers should originate from VC+ but their locations are different, i.e., quasicubic sites for EI5 and hexagonal sites for EI6, as recently predicted by the first-principle calculation [M. Bockstedte et al., Phys. Rev. B 67, 193102 (2003)]. The two types of VC+ centers showed remarkable differences in their atomic structures as well as in the temperature dependence of HF interactions, which are closely related to the nature of the two sites.

One of the interesting features of the photoemission spectra of the high temperature cuprate superconductors is the presence of a large signal (referred to as the "background") in the unoccupied region of the Brillouin zone. Here we present data indicating that the background signal is a component of the photocurrent that is separate from the spectral function and is most likely due to strong scattering of the photoelectrons. We also present an analytical method that can be used to subtract the background signal.

We study quasiparticle structure in the vicinity of the Heisenberg model. At first, we focus on the model in one dimension and show how solitonic quasiparticles (and their bound states) emerge. Further we discuss its anlaog in higher dimensions. Related to this subject, numerical data are presented and a discussion is given for the quasiparticles in the two-dimensional Hubbard model at half filling on a triangular-type lattice.

We examine the momentum and energy dependence of the scattering rate of the high-temperature cuprate superconductors using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The scattering rate is of the form a + bomega around the Fermi surface for under-and optimal doping. The inelastic coefficient b is found to be isotropic. The elastic term a, however, is found to be highly anisotropic for under-and optimally doped samples, with an anisotropy which correlates with that of the pseudogap. This is contrasted with heavily overdoped samples, which show an isotropic scattering rate and an absence of the pseudogap above Tc. We find this to be a generic property for both single-and double-layer compounds.

Solving the nonlinear Ginzburg-Landau equations self-consistently we investigated the influence of surface defects on the vortex penetration and expulsion in thin mesoscopic superconducting samples. The effect of the number, size, and position of surface defects on the vortex entry and exit fields and on the entrance and exit positions of the vortex are studied for very thin circular, square, and rectangular samples. For specific vortex configurations we found that due to the interplay between the vortex-vortex repulsion and the vortex-defect interaction, the vortex does not enter or leave the sample through the surface defect.

Based on quantum Monte Carlo calculations, we shall discuss the regime where ferromagnetic correlation isdominant in the two-dimensional t-t8 Hubbard model at a finite temperature. In this model, ferromagnetismcompetes with antiferromagnetism and we reveal how crossover occurs between them at a finite temperature bythe bias-free method. We shall investigate the data in the context of the so-called “low-density ferromagnetism.”The weak-coupling result is also shown and the data are compared with the “Nagaokaferromagnetism.”

The temperature dependence of the vortex penetration and expulsion fields in mesoscopic superconducting disks are studied. We experimentally find that the penetration field decreases with increasing temperature for all values of the vorticity. On the other hand, the temperature dependence of the expulsion fields shows two regimes: For some vortex states the expulsion field increases with temperature, while for other states it is almost temperature independent. A numerical study based on the nonlinear Ginzburg-Landau theory confirms that the former regime corresponds to multivortex states and the latter to giant vortex states. The origin of this difference is discussed.

Josephson plasma excitations in the high-Tc superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta have been investigated in a wide microwave frequency region (9.8–75 GHz)—in particular, in a magnetic field applied parallel to the ab plane of the single crystal. In sharp contrast to the case for magnetic fields parallel to the c axis or tilted from the ab plane, it was found that there are two kinds of resonance modes, which are split in energy and possess two distinctly different magnetic field dependences. One always lies higher in energy than the other and has a shallow minimum at about 0.8 kOe, then increases linearly with magnetic field. On the other hand, another mode begins to appear only in a magnetic field (from a few kOe and higher) and has a weakly decreasing tendency with increasing magnetic field. By comparing with a recent theoretical model the higher-energy mode can naturally be attributed to the Josephson plasma resonance mode propagating along the primitive reciprocal lattice vector of the Josephson vortex lattice, whereas the lower-frequency mode is assigned to the novel phase collective mode of the Josephson vortex lattice, which has never been observed before.

For generic time-reversal-invariant systems with spin-orbit couplings, we clarify a close relationship between the Z2 topological order and the spin Chern number (SChN) in the quantum spin-Hall effect. It turns out that a global gauge transformation connects sectors with different SChNs (even integers) modulo 4, which implies that the SChN and Z2 topological orders yield the same classification. We present a method of computing the SChN and demonstrate it in single and double planes of graphene.

We investigate the entanglement properties of the valence-bond-solid states with generic integer spin S. Using the Schwinger boson representation of the valence-bond-solid states, the entanglement entropy, the von Neumann entropy of a subsystem, is obtained exactly and its relationship with the usual correlation function is clarified. The saturation value of the entanglement entropy, 2 log2(S+1), is derived explicitly and is interpreted in terms of the edge-state picture. The validity of our analytical results and the edge-state picture is numerically confirmed. We also propose an application of the edge state as a qubit for quantum computation.

Electronic structure of stripe ordered La2−xSrxNiO4 is investigated. The system with x=(1/3) is insulator, in LSDA+U calculations, and shows charge and spin stripe, consistent with the experimental results. A highly correlated system of x=(1/2) is studied by using exact diagonalization of the multiorbital many-body Hamiltonian derived from LDA calculations and including on-site and intersite Coulomb interactions. The fluctuation of the residual spin on Ni3+ (hole) site couples with the charge fluctuation between Ni3+ and Ni2+ states and this correlation lowers the total energy. The resultant ground state is an insulator with charge and spin stripe of the energy gap 0.9 eV, consistent with the observed one. The on-site Coulomb interaction stabilizes integral valency of each Ni ion (Ni3+ and Ni2+), but does not induce the charge order. Two quantities, intersite Coulomb interaction and anisotropy of hopping integrals, play an important role to form the charge and spin stripe order in a system of x=(1/2).

We investigate the integer quantum Hall system in a two dimensional lattice model with spatially correlated disorder by using the efficient method to calculate the Chern number proposed by Fukui et al. [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 74, 1674 (2005)]. Distribution of charge density indicates that the extended states at the center of each Landau band have percolating current paths, which are topologically equivalent to the edge states that exist in a system with boundaries. As increasing the strength of disorder, the floating feature is observed in an averaged Hall conductance as a function of filling factor. Its relation to the observed experiments is also discussed.

Both the electron and the optically created hole effective masses are found to be density dependent in a two-dimensional electron system of a GaAs/Al0.33Ga0.67As back-gated quantum well by magnetophotoluminescence spectroscopy. We show that the density-dependent electron effective mass increases with a decrease in the electron density (ns) to ns<1×1011 cm−2. It is found that the electron effective masses determined from the lowest and the second Landau levels are larger than those from the higher Landau levels. The hole effective mass is found to increase with a decrease in ns and the hole is found to localize at ns<3×1010 cm−2. We observe an upward convex curve of the photoluminescence peak energy at 2<ν<3 depending on the electron-hole distance divided by the magnetic length. These results clearly show the important roles of both electron-electron and electron-hole interactions in the recombination of a valence hole with a high-quality two-dimensional electron system.
