Background: Preparing a formal transaction document is one of the specific duties of notaries public, which requires the use and observance of various substantive and formal conditions. Failure to comply with any of these conditions can lead to the annulment of the document by the court and the responsibility to compensate the clerks. Compensation by the clerks in various articles such as Artic...

Hybrid halide perovskites such as methylammonium lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) exhibit unusually low free-carrier concentrations despite being processed at low-temperatures from solution. We demonstrate, through quantum mechanical calculations, that an origin of this phenomenon is a prevalence of ionic over electronic disorder in stoichiometric materials. Schottky defect formation provides a mechani...

Hole concentration and mobility were investigated by Hall measurements in nominally undoped p-type GaSb in the temperature range from 77 to 300 K. The dependence of the thermal ionization energy of native acceptors on the acceptor centre concentration and on the compensation degree was determined. The temperature dependence of the hole mobility was analyzed using a heuristic semi-empirical mode...

We investigate the properties of PbTe doped with a small concentration x of Tl impurities acting as acceptors and described by Anderson impurities with negative onsite correlation energy. We use the numerical renormalization group method to show that the resulting charge Kondo effect naturally accounts for the unusual low temperature and doping dependence of normal state properties, including t...

The structure of the 5 p 5 p R26:6 reconstruction of LaAlO3 (001) has been determined using transmission electron diffraction combined with direct methods. It has a lanthanum oxide termination with one lanthanum vacancy per surface unit cell. Density functional calculations indicate that charge compensation occurs by a fractional number of highly delocalized holes, and that the surface contains...

The upgrade of the SIS18 to become the injector of the SIS100 requires beam loss control/limitation at the percent level [1]. The storage of high intensity beams needs careful choice of the working point and of compensation of the resonances crossing the beam space charge tune spread (as large as ∆Q ∼ 0.5). However, the linear coupling may be useful for balancing beam emittances and improving m...

During holographic recording in pure (Pb5Ge3O11) and doped @(Pb12xBax)5Ge3O11# lead germanate crystals, the diffraction efficiency is transiently enhanced at the initial stage. The enhancement is studied as a function of writing-beam intensity and of dark delay time between two successive recording processes and with openor short-circuited crystal surfaces. Homogeneous pyroelectric fields that ...

Proton Source and LEBT At CEA/Saclay the SILHI (Source des Ions Légères a Hautes Intensitées) is operating since 1996 and its nominal beam parameters fit to the needs of the FAIR proton linac. In December 2005 beam emittances for various source and LEBT parameters were measured during a joint CEA/GSI/IAP campaign. Its evaluation in 2006 followed by additional measurements on space charge compen...

A new polyoxovanadate [Zn2(dien)3][[Zn(dien)]2As4V16O42(H2O)] x 3H2O (1, dien = diethylenetriamine) has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by EA, IR, TGA, magnetic measurement and single crystal X-ray diffraction. X-Ray diffraction analyses reveal that 1 exhibits the first [As4V16O42(H2O)]-containing polyoxometalate. In 1, the adjacent [As4V16O42(H2O)] clusters are l...

It has become common practice for retail grocers to charge grocery manufacturers a slotting allowance for placing products on the retail shelf. Manufacturers view the allowance as anti-competitive. Retailers view it as compensation for the risks associated with stocking new products. The largely theoretical literature on the subject is consistent with both views. This article proposes an empiri...
