Exponentially accurate quasimodes for the time-independent Born,Oppenheimer approximation on a one-dimensional molecular system

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF QUANTUM CHEMISTRY, Issue 5 2005
George A. Hagedorn
Abstract We consider the eigenvalue problem for a one-dimensional molecular-type quantum Hamiltonian that has the form where h(y) is an analytic family of self-adjoint operators that has a discrete, nondegenerate electronic level ,(y) for y in some open subset of ,. Near a local minimum of the electronic level ,(y) that is not at a level crossing, we construct quasimodes that are exponentially accurate in the square of the Born,Oppenheimer parameter , by optimal truncation of the Rayleigh,Schrödinger series. That is, we construct an energy E, and a wave function ,,, such that the L2 -norm of ,, is ,,(1) and the L2 -norm of (H(,) , E,),, is bounded by , exp(,,/,2) with , > 0. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Si-doped GaN/AlN quantum dot superlattices for optoelectronics at telecommunication wavelengths

PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (A) APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE, Issue 7 2006
F. Guillot
Abstract We report on the controlled growth of Si doped GaN/AlN quantum dot (QD) superlattices, in order to tailor their intersubband absorption within the 1.3,1.5 µm telecommunication wavelengths. The QD size is tuned by modifying the amount of GaN in the QDs and the growth temperature. Silicon can be incorporated in the QDs to populate the first electronic level, without significant perturbation of the QD morphology. As a proof of the capability of these structures for infrared detection, a quantum-dot intersubband photodetector at 1.38 µm with lateral carrier transport is demonstrated.

Adsorption of benzene over the rutile TiO2 (110) surfaces: A theoretical study

PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (C) - CURRENT TOPICS IN SOLID STATE PHYSICS, Issue 2 2010
A. R. R. Neto
Abstract In this work, we present our theoretical results for the relaxation of the rutile TiO2 (110), as well as for the adsorption of benzene over this surface. Our results are in good agreement with both the available theoretical and experimental data, whenever these comparisons were possible. Based on our obtained results, we show that the interaction between the adsorbate and the TiO2 (110) surface shows a van der Waalslike character, with the calculated adsorption energies at the order of 43 to 173 meV. In this adsorption process, the H atoms of the benzene prefer to bind with the surface Ti atoms. As a result, two occupied electronic levels appear at the surface bandgap, which are responsible for the optical absorption peaks at the blue-violet region of the electromagnetic spectra.
