Highly unconventional behavior of the thermodynamic response functions has been experimentally observed in a narrow gap semiconductor samarium hexaboride. Motivated by these observations, we use renormalization group technique to investigate many-body instabilities f-orbital semiconductors with band inversion limit weak coupling. After projecting out double occupancy states, formulate low-energ...

In this paper we employ the fully polarimetric scatterometer data of rough dielectric surface, which was obtained at the European Microwave Signature Laboratory, for soil parameter inversion. The inversion results of three bands (L, Ls, S) images are analysed, and those of Ls and S band are obviously improved through revising the screening condition of the inversion models according to polarime...

An iterative, rotated coordinates inversion technique is applied in conjunction with spatial narrowband filters in matrix form to localize multiple acoustic sources in the shallow ocean. When the iterative, rotated coordinates inversion technique is applied to broadband horizontal line array data designed to simulate a group of moving ships, the bearing of the loudest source is quickly identifi...

A general mechanism is presented by which topological physics arises in strongly correlated systems without flat bands. Starting from a charge transfer insulator, topology emerges when the energy between cation and anion reduced to invert lower Hubbard band spin-degenerate band. universal low-energy theory developed for inversion of gap quantum antiferromagnet. The inverted state found be anoma...

GaSb inversion-mode PMOSFETs with atomiclayer-deposited (ALD) Al2O3 as gate dielectric are demonstrated. A 0.75-μm-gate-length device has a maximum drain current of 70 mA/mm, a transconductance of 26 mS/mm, and a hole inversion mobility of 200 cm/V · s. The OFF-state performance is improved by reducing the ALD growth temperature from 300 ◦C to 200 ◦C. The measured interface trap distribution sh...

We report the pressure-induced topological quantum phase transition of BiTeI single crystals using Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations of bulk Fermi surfaces. The sizes of the inner and the outer FSs of the Rashba-split bands exhibit opposite pressure dependence up to P = 3.35 GPa, indicating pressure-tunable Rashba effect. Above a critical pressure P ~ 2 GPa, the Shubnikov-de Haas frequency for the...

S U M M A R Y We investigate the 2007 Pisco, Peru, earthquake (M8.0) using seismological and geodetic data. Analysis of teleseismic records indicates that the earthquake is characterized by a steadily increasing moment rate, with the maximum occurring between about 55 and 70 s and the associated slip occurring about 40 km south of the epicentre. We combine InSAR data from L-band (ALOS) and C-ba...
