The peak location of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of noble metal nanoparticles is highly dependent upon the refractive index of the nanoparticles' surrounding environment. In this study, new phenomena are revealed by exploring the influence of interacting molecular resonances and nanoparticle resonances. The LSPR peak shift and line shape induced by a resonant molecule vary wi...

We have previously discussed the classical diffusive system of the bounded one-dimensional multitrap using the transfer-matrix method which is generally applied for studying the energy spectrum of the unbounded quantum Kronig-Penney multibarrier. It was shown, by this method, that for certain values of the relevant parameters the bounded multitrap array have unity transmission and a double-peak...

on in France. The book represents a lay agitation for " twilight sleep," and describes the experiences of several women who have been delivered at Freiburg. From the obstetrical point of view, the principal interest lies in the three appendices where Kronig and Gauss give the details of the method and meet the various arguments which have been launched against " twilight sleep." The writers evi...

Fluorescence yields and Coster–Kronig factors of the ruthenium L-shell are determined experimentally for first time with reliable uncertainty budgets.

A treatise on the optical property of biological tissue is presented. Water is postulated to be a topological basis and serves to discriminate published skin data. Electromagnetic theory governing dielectric behavior is concisely detailed pertaining to certain optical constants and Kramers-Krönig relation. The Kramers-Krönig relation defining dispersion index is emulated through the discrete Hi...

Titanium carbide (TiC) nanocrystals were recently proposed as the carrier of the mysterious 21 mm emission feature observed in post–asymptotic giant branch stars, based on their close spectral match and the presolar nature of meteoritic TiC nanograins (which reveals their stellar ejecta origin). But we show in this Letter that the KramersKronig dispersion relations, which relate the wavelength-...

In this work, fluorescence yields and Coster–Kronig transition probabilities of the tantalum L-shell are determined with a reliable uncertainty budget.

Using data from equilibrium Molecular Dynamics computer simulations we have built up a catalogue of response functions for the Coulomb one-component plasma (OCP) over wide range $\Gamma$ coupling values, including strongly coupled $\Gamma > 1$ liquid regime. We focus on domain negative compressibility ($\Gamma>3$), where causality and concomitant Kramers-Kronig relations are violated. give desc...
