    Proper Ferroelectricity in the Dion?Jacobson Material CsBi2Ti2NbO10: Experiment and Theory

    No full text
    A diverse range of materials and properties are exhibited by layered perovskites. We report on the synthesis, characterization, and computational investigation of a new ferroelectric?CsBi2Ti2NbO10, an n = 3 member of the Dion?Jacobson (DJ) family. Structural studies using variable temperature neutron powder diffraction indicate that a combination of octahedral rotations and polar displacements result in the polar structure. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the wider perovskite blocks in CsBi2Ti2NbO0 stabilize proper ferroelectricity, in contrast to the hybrid-improper ferroelectricity reported for all other DJ phases. Our results raise the possibility of a new class of proper ferroelectric materials analogous to the well-known Aurivillius phases

    Harold K. Jacobson (1929-2001): An Appreciation

    No full text
    Harold Jacobson was born in Detroit onJune 28,1929. He attended high school in Wyandotte, Michigan, and received a bachelor\u27s degree in history from the University of Michigan. He married his Michigan schoolmate Merelyn Jean Lindbloom in 1951, a year after he started graduate school at Yale. He was fundamentally an optimist about human behavior; he opened his path-breaking text, Networks of Interdependence, with the words, This is an optimistic book, though I hope not an unrealistic one. Thus did Jacobson begin a career-long association with many whose work was rooted in international law. This interest led to fruitful collaborations and innovative contributions to the international law literature. His insatiable curiosity, open-mindedness, delight in discovery, and appreciation of people were grounded in a strong sense of his own community and identity. An inspired and devoted teacher, Jacobson achieved excellence by fostering it

    Finite rank operators in Jacobson radical {\scr R}\sb{{\scr N}\otimes{\scr M}}

    No full text
    summary:In this paper we investigate finite rank operators in the Jacobson radical RNM\mathcal R_{\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M} of Alg(NM)\mathop {\mathrm Alg}(\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M), where N\mathcal N, M\mathcal M are nests. Based on the concrete characterizations of rank one operators in Alg(NM)\mathop {\mathrm Alg}(\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M) and RNM\mathcal R_{\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M}, we obtain that each finite rank operator in RNM\mathcal R_{\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M} can be written as a finite sum of rank one operators in RNM\mathcal R_{\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M} and the weak closure of RNM\mathcal R_{\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M} equals Alg(NM)\mathop {\mathrm Alg}({\mathcal N\otimes \mathcal M}) if and only if at least one of N\mathcal N, M\mathcal M is continuous
