    Indented Barrier Resonant Tunneling Rectifiers

    Full text link
    This article concerns a novel negative-conductance device consisting of a series of N laterally indented barriers which exhibits resonant tunneling under one bias polarity and simple tunneling under the opposite one, thus acting as a rectifier. Electrons undergo resonant tunneling when the bias creates a band profile with N triangular wells which can each contain a resonant state. From 1 to N the addition of each indentation can be used to increase the current density and the rectification ratio, calculated at the current-peak bias at resonance, provided that at a given bias all the states in the triangular wells align each other with the emitter Fermi energy in order to form a resonance along the structure. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.80741744176Chang, L.L., Esaki, L., Tsu, R., (1974) Appl.

    High-Resolution Tests of Low-Dimensionality Effects in Photoemission

    No full text
    High-energy-resolution photoemission spectra, taken on three quasi-one-dimensional crystals, TaTe4, NbTe4, and (NbSe4)3I confirm the general phenomenon of the suppression of the photoemission intensity near the Fermi level in one dimension. We analyze the possible causes of this phenomenon in light of previous results on (TaSe4)2I.LSELPRXUniv basel,inst phys,ch-4056 basel,switzerland. ecole polytech fed lausanne,inst genie atom,ch-1015 lausanne,switzerland. univ wisconsin,dept phys,madison,wi 53706.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Spatially Localized Energy Shifts in the Photoemission Spectroscopy of Insulators

    No full text
    Core-level photoemission peaks taken on several insulators with spatial resolution of 30-300 mu m rigidly shift in energy from place to place, most likely because of local charging effects. Such phenomena can affect the linewidth and the general lineshape of conventional, spatially integrated spectra even when a flood gun is used, which is one of the standard remedies against charging. This may require a critical revision of photoemission linewidths and lineshapes for many past experiments on insulators.LSELPRXEcole polytech fed lausanne,inst micro & optoelectr,ch-1015 lausanne,switzerland. eniric spa,i-20097 milan,italy.

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
