Disorder-induced double resonant Raman process in graphene
An analytical study is presented of the double resonant Raman scattering
process in graphene, responsible for the D and D features in the
Raman spectra. This work yields analytical expressions for the D and
D integrated Raman intensities that explicitly show the dependencies
on laser energy, defect concentration, and electronic lifetime. Good agreement
is obtained between the analytical results and experimental measurements on
samples with increasing defect concentrations and at various laser excitation
energies. The use of Raman spectroscopy to identify the nature of defects is
discussed. Comparison between the models for the edge-induced and the
disorder-induced D band intensity suggests that edges or grain boundaries can
be distinguished from disorder by the different dependence of their Raman
intensity on laser excitation energy. Similarly, the type of disorder can
potentially be identified not only by the intensity ratio
, but also by its laser energy
dependence. Also discussed is a quantitative analysis of quantum interference
effects of the graphene wavefunctions, which determine the most important
phonon wavevectors and scattering processes responsible for the D and
D bands.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Time-Reversal Symmetry Breaking and Decoherence in Chaotic Dirac Billiards
In this work, we perform a statistical study on Dirac Billiards in the
extreme quantum limit (a single open channel on the leads). Our numerical
analysis uses a large ensemble of random matrices and demonstrates the
preponderant role of dephasing mechanisms in such chaotic billiards. Physical
implementations of these billiards range from quantum dots of graphene to
topological insulators structures. We show, in particular, that the role of
finite crossover fields between the universal symmetries quickly leaves the
conductance to the asymptotic limit of unitary ensembles. Furthermore, we show
that the dephasing mechanisms strikingly lead Dirac billiards from the extreme
quantum regime to the semiclassical Gaussian regime

The GREATS H+[OIII] Luminosity Function and Galaxy Properties at : Walking the Way of JWST
The James Webb Space Telescope will allow to spectroscopically study an
unprecedented number of galaxies deep into the reionization era, notably by
detecting [OIII] and H nebular emission lines. To efficiently prepare
such observations, we photometrically select a large sample of galaxies at
and study their rest-frame optical emission lines. Combining data from
the GOODS Re-ionization Era wide-Area Treasury from Spitzer (GREATS) survey and
from HST, we perform spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting, using
synthetic SEDs from a large grid of photoionization models. The deep
Spitzer/IRAC data combined with our models exploring a large parameter space
enables to constrain the [OIII]+H fluxes and equivalent widths for our
sample, as well as the average physical properties of galaxies, such
as the ionizing photon production efficiency with
. We
find a relatively tight correlation between the [OIII]+H and UV
luminosity, which we use to derive for the first time the [OIII]+H
luminosity function (LF) at . The [OIII]+H LF is higher
at all luminosities compared to lower redshift, as opposed to the UV LF, due to
an increase of the [OIII]+H luminosity at a given UV luminosity from
to . Finally, using the [OIII]+H LF, we make
predictions for JWST/NIRSpec number counts of galaxies. We find that
the current wide-area extragalactic legacy fields are too shallow to use JWST
at maximal efficiency for spectroscopy even at 1hr depth and JWST
pre-imaging to mag will be required.Comment: 13 pages, 9 figures, accepted for publication in MNRA
Group Theory analysis of phonons in two-dimensional Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have emerged as a new two
dimensional materials field since the monolayer and few-layer limits show
different properties when compared to each other and to their respective bulk
materials. For example, in some cases when the bulk material is exfoliated down
to a monolayer, an indirect-to-direct band gap in the visible range is
observed. The number of layers ( even or odd) drives changes in space
group symmetry that are reflected in the optical properties. The understanding
of the space group symmetry as a function of the number of layers is therefore
important for the correct interpretation of the experimental data. Here we
present a thorough group theory study of the symmetry aspects relevant to
optical and spectroscopic analysis, for the most common polytypes of TMDCs,
i.e. , and , as a function of the number of layers. Real space
symmetries, the group of the wave vectors, the relevance of inversion symmetry,
irreducible representations of the vibrational modes, optical selection rules
and Raman tensors are discussed.Comment: 32 pages, 4 figure
Tagetes minuta - uma nova alternativa no controle fitoterápico de carrapatos.
Obrigatoriamente os carrapatos são parasitas hematófagos (FREIRE, 1972) da maioria dos animais vertebrados, podendo transmitir uma variedade de agentes patogênicos (ESTRADA-PENA; JONGEJAN, 1999). Depois dos mosquitos os carrapatos são considerados o primeiro grupo de artrópodes ectoparasitos a transmitirem agentes patogênicos aos seres humanos, e ocupam o primeiro lugar na transmissão de agentes causadores de doenças aos animais (JONGEJAN; UILENBERG, 2004; OGRZEWALSKA, 2009). Pertencem ao filo Arthropoda, classe Arachnida, ordem Acari e subordem Ixodida e apresentam uma ampla distribuição geográfica.bitstream/item/109847/1/DOC207.pd
