Ferromagnetic insulating substrate for magnetic proximity studies: LaCoO3 thin film
No full textFerromagnetic insulators (FMIs) are intriguing not only due to their rare nature, but also due to their potential applications in spintronics and various electronic devices. One of its key promising applications is based on an FMI-induced magnetic proximity effect, which can impose an effective time-reversal symmetry breaking on the target ultrathin layer to realize novel emergent phenomena. Here, we conduct systematic studies on thin film LaCoO3, an insulator known to be ferromagnet under tensile strain, with varying thicknesses, to establish it as an FMI platform to be integrated in heterostructures. The optimal thickness of the LaCoO3 layer, providing a smooth surface and robust ferromagnetism with large remanence, is determined. A heterostructure consisting of an ultrathin target layer (2 uc SrRuO3), the LaCoO3 FMI layer, and the La0.5Sr0.5CoO3 conducting layer has been fabricated and the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurement on the multi-layer system demonstrates a sharp Fermi edge and a well-defined Fermi surface without the charging effect. This demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed heterostructure using LaCoO3 thin film as the FMI layer, and further lays a groundwork to investigate the magnetic proximity induced phases in quantum materials.11Nsciescopu
Growth and Electronic Structure of Copper Oxide Monolayer Epitaxial Films
No full textCopper-basedhigh-temperature superconductors share acommon featurein their crystal structure, which is the presence of a CuO2 plane, where superconductivity takes place. Therefore, importantquestions arise as to whether superconductivity can exist in a singlelayer of the CuO2 plane and, if so, how such superconductivityin a single CuO2 plane differs from that in a bulk cupratesystem. To answer these questions, studies of the superconductivityin cuprate monolayers are necessary. In this study, we constructeda heterostructure system with a La2-x Sr x CuO4 (LSCO) monolayercontaining a single CuO2 plane and measured the resultingelectronic structures. Monolayer LSCO has metallic and bulk-like electronicstructures. The hole doping ratio of the monolayer LSCO is found todepend on the underlying buffer layer due to the interface effect.Our work will provide a platform for research into ideal two-dimensionalcuprate systems.11Nsciescopu
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
