Universal dephasing rate due to diluted Kondo impurities
T. Micklitz, A. Altland, T. A. Costi +1
We calculate the dephasing rate due to magnetic impurities in a weakly disordered metal as measured in a weak localization experiment. If the density n_S of magnetic impurities is…
Why Are Alkali Halide Solid Surfaces Not Wetted By Their Own Melt?
T. Zykova-Timan, D. Ceresoli, U. Tartaglino +1
Alkali halide (100) crystal surfaces are anomalous, being very poorly wetted by their own melt at the triple point. We present extensive simulations for NaCl, followed by calculati…
A multiscale Molecular Dynamics approach to Contact Mechanics
C. Yang, U. Tartaglino, B. N. J. Persson
The friction and adhesion between elastic bodies are strongly influenced by the roughness of the surfaces in contact. Here we develop a multiscale molecular dynamics approach to co…
Magnetic interactions in Cu-containing heterospin polymer
A. V. Postnikov, A. V. Galakhov, S. Bluegel
The electronic structure of Cu hexafluoroacetylacetonate, crystallized with a stable nitronyl nitroxide radical [Ovcharenko et al., Russ. Chem. Bull. 53, 2406 (2004)], is calculate…
Half-metallic ferromagnets for magnetic tunnel junctions
Phivos Mavropoulos, Marjana Lezaic, Stefan Bluegel
Using theoretical arguments, we show that, in order to exploit half-metallic ferromagnets in tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) junctions, it is crucial to eliminate interface state…
Quantum kinetic description of Coulomb effects in one-dimensional nano-transistors
K. M. Indlekofer, J. Knoch, J. Appenzeller
In this article, we combine the modified electrostatics of a one-dimensional transistor structure with a quantum kinetic formulation of Coulomb interaction and nonequilibrium trans…
