Increased rise time of electron temperature during adiabatic plasmon focusing

Temperature Dependence of Spin-Split Peaks in Transverse Electron Focusing

We present experimental results of transverse electron-focusing measurements performed using n-type GaAs. In the presence of a small transverse magnetic field (B⊥), electrons are focused from the injector to detector leading to focusing peaks periodic in B⊥. We show that the odd-focusing peaks exhibit a split, where each sub-peak represents a population of a particular spin branch emanating fro...

Self-focusing of femtosecond surface plasmon polaritons.

We study the propagation of femtosecond pulses in nonlinear metal-dielectric plasmonic waveguiding structures by employing the finite-difference time-domain numerical method. Self-focusing of plasmon pulses is observed for defocusing Kerr-like nonlinearity of the dielectric medium due to normal dispersion. We compare the nonlinear propagation of plasmon pulses along a single metal-dielectric in...

Electron Correlations in an Electron Bilayer at Finite Temperature: Landau Damping of the Acoustic Plasmon

We report angle-resolved Raman scattering observations of the temperature dependent Landau damping of the acoustic plasmon in an electron bilayer system realised in a GaAs double quantum well structure. Corresponding calculations of the charge-density excitation spectrum of the electron bilayer using forms of the random phase approximation (RPA), and the static local field formalism of Singwi, ...

Effect of composite shade, curing time and mode on temperature rise of silorane and methacrylate- based composite resins

Introduction: The present study was performed to evaluate the effects of light-curing modes and shades of methacrylate and silorane-based composite resins on temperature rise during polymerization of composite resins. Materials &Methods: In this in vitro study, ninety composite samples with two types of composite resin - methacrylate-based and a low-shrinkage silorane-based were prepared, in...
