Temperature dependence of the tunneling conductance of a Bi

2CaCu
2O
8--GaAs junction was investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The spectral function deduced from the experimental result at 4.2, K is applied to the Eliashberg equations at higher temperatures. The theory well explains the observed smearing of the phonon structures, but there is a small discrepancy between the experimental and the theoretical gap and the former decreases more rapidly than the latter as temperature increases.

We have derived the effective one-electron-type band structure, the density of states and the Fermi surface structure for a carrier system, by renormalizing the effects of the supper-exchange coupling between localized spins, the exchange integral between the spins of a carrier hole and a localized spin, and the Hubbard U-like parameter of a carrier hole into the electronic state of the carriers. The obtained energy bands and Fermi surface structure are consistent with the recent experimental results of angle-resolved photoemission.

The magnetic susceptibilities of liquid Ag--In, Ag--Sn, Ag--Ga and Ag--Zn alloy systems have been measured over a wide temperature range from 600 to 1085°C. The magnetic susceptibility curves at 1010°C were plotted against the alloy composition, which are different from one another. The temperature coefficients of their magnetic susceptibilities against the composition were very similar, showing a sharp minimum at about 90 at%Ag and a broad maximum at about 70 at%Ag, except for those of the Ag--Zn system. The curve of the concentration-concentration fluctuation in the long wavelength limit S
CC(0) of those alloys has been estimated by using the experimental EMF data compiled in the literatures. Two pronounced minima exist in the S
CC(0) curves at about 35 and 70 at%Ag, except for the Ag--Ga system.

We report the following two remarks of the Rh impurity effect on the charge-transfer (CT) type nonmetallic state (below the nonmetal-metal transition temperature: T
t) of 3d transition metal compound NiS. (1) Although the nearest neighbouring M-M (Ni or Rh) and S-S distances increase with increasing x, dT
t/dx<0. The Rh substitution gives a broad peak with the Fermi edge. A positive sign of T-linear contribution of the thermoelectric power turns to negative one at the critical concentration (x
c) in Ni
1-xRh
xS. Below T
t, a Curie constant is observed and increases with increasing x. It is suggested that an impurity band introduced by the Rh atoms leads a change of the electronic state of Ni atoms and the suppression of the CT gap. (2) An empirical relation (dT
t/d| C
N| >0) is found on Ni
1-xRh
xS, Ni

N is the phonon-drag coefficient. The slope dT

Microporous activated carbon fibers with huge specific surface area (3000, m

2. The introduction of helium gas strongly enhances the spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T

1 possible and the obtained result can explain the experimentally observed result.

Mössbauer study of
57Fe of a single crystal LuFeMgO
4, a diluted triangular antiferromagnet, reveals two kinds of spin behavior, a weakly frustrated and a strongly frustrated ones. One kind of spin aligns along the c-axis with antiferromagnetic correlation and contributes to an almost constant H
hf at temperatures below T
cusp (spin glass like transition temperature), while the other behaves like a Heisenberg spin in a triangular antiferromagnet rapidly fluctuating with 120° structure, and contributes to a slightly smaller and temperature dependent H
hf. This behavior is explained in relation to the magnetic properties.

The magnetic susceptibility and the Cu and Si Knight shifts have been measured in CeCu
2Si
2. The transferred hyperfine couplings at both the sites are strongly temperature-dependent and noticeably anisotropic at low temperatures. The negative hyperfine couplings observed for the magnetic field along the c-axis at the low temperatures are anomalous as in Ce intermetallic compounds. It is pointed out that the transferred hyperfine coupling due to the hybridization of the f electrons with the ligand s electrons can be anisotropic and also can reverse its sign at the lower temperatures than the crystal-field splitting energy. It is concluded that this hybridization is the dominant mechanism of the transferred hyperfine coupling and responsible for the anomaly.

Dielectric constant of binary mixtures of Methyl isobutyl Ketone (MIBK) with a number of aliphatic alcohols, namely 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 1-heptanol and 1-octanol has been measured at 303.16, K and 455, kHz. The data are used to compute the mutual correlation parameter g
ab, excess molar polarization ΔP, and excess Gibb's free energy ΔG in those mixtures with a view to assessing the suitability of the alcohol as a modifier. The trend of variation of g
ab indicates that octanol could be grouped with other higher alcohols already used as modifier.

In MAPCB, the temperature at which the dielectric constant shows a diffuse anomaly (around 160, K at 0, MPa) increases linearly with increasing pressure with a rate of 0.057, K/MPa. The dielectric anomaly becomes more and more diffusive as pressure increases.

We have discovered a new type of photoluminescence (PL) effect in Si-doped Al
xGa
1-xAs and their microstructures including double δ -doped systems and superlattices. This PL appears with photon energies higher than the incident photon energy at low temperatures. Specifically, the photoexcitation with the energy being 0.2, eV below the gap energy produces the band-edge PL for Al
xGa
1-xAs (0.35≤ x≤ 0.40). Neither the Anti-Stokes Raman effect, the Franz-Keldish effect nor the multiple photon effect have been proven to cause the present anomalous phenomena. Various studies of this luminescence as functions of temperature, Si concentration, the excitation power intensity and the excitation energy have revealed that this effect is strongly related to the deep donor levels in Al
xGa
1-xAs (x≥ 0.3). We have discussed a possible origin of this new phenomena.

The discrete variational (DV) Xα method is applied to investigate the outermost inner-shell hole of all alkali metals. Calculations are performed for the model clusters M
9 and M
59 of alkali metals. The hole is assumed to be at the center of the cluster in the bcc structure. The hole potential of Rb and Cs is found to be extended to the cluster size. The result is applied to investigate the anomalous edge of X-ray absorption spectrum and the asymmetric shape of X-ray photoemission spectrum, but we could not find any peculiar characteristics expected for Cs. The obtained singularity indices α 's and the edge exponents α
l's of all the elements are very similar to those obtained by predecessors, failing to obtain a small value of α
0 for Cs which is claimed by experiment.

The discrete variational (DV) Xα method is applied to investigate the electronic structure of alkali metals. The structure of energy levels of large cluster has a similarity to the density-of-states of metallic system of the same elements if the contribution of surface atoms is removed. Decomposition of the density-of-states at the Fermi energy into the partial waves shows strong p character for Li, nearly equal s and p contributions for Na and nearly equal s, p and d components for K, Rb and Cs. The calculated density-of-states is compared favorably with X-ray absorption spectrum of K, Rb and Cs. The effect of the d state near the edge of X-ray absorption spectrum is found serious, in particular for Cs.

We reported previously a series of unexpected emergences with anomalies of transient photoconductivity Q(T, , λ ) of Cu
2O below 100, K with decreasing temperature in contrast to the submergences of Q(T, , λ ) observed in most of normal photoconductor such as AgCl, AgBr, CdS at low temperatures. Here, we have reexamined the temperature variation of effective electric fields applied on the specimens of Cu
2O, both experimentally and numerically in detail. By estimating an influence of the effective electric fields on the magnitude of Q(T, , λ ), we obtained further corrected results of Q(T, , λ ) qualitatively common to various Cu
2O specimens below 100, K. These corrections established the overall behaviours of the “anomalous temperature dependence'' of Q(T, , λ ) of Cu
2O previously reported especially below 100, K to be not influenced by a spurious effect. We give further discussion on the phenomena in terms of the mobility μ (T) and/or of the life time τ (T) due to usual trapping processes of photocarriers based on the one-electron approximation, but without success. Here, we note a finite value of photocarrier density n
0, sustained even down to T=1.6, K. We eventually have to invoke a many-body aspect in elucidating these anomalous phenomena of Q(T, , λ ) and n
0(T) observed in Cu
2O.
