Imaging fractional incompressible stripes in integer quantum Hall systems
Transport experiments provide conflicting evidence on the possible existence
of fractional order within integer quantum Hall systems. In fact integer edge
states sometimes behave as monolithic objects with no inner structure, while
other experiments clearly highlight the role of fractional substructures.
Recently developed low-temperature scanning probe techniques offer today an
opportunity for a deeper-than-ever investigation of spatial features of such
edge systems. Here we use scanning gate microscopy and demonstrate that
fractional features were unambiguously observed in every integer quantum Hall
constriction studied. We present also an experimental estimate of the width of
the fractional incompressible stripes corresponding to filling factors 1/3,
2/5, 3/5, and 2/3. Our results compare well with predictions of the
edge-reconstruction theory
Synchronization of chaotic networks with time-delayed couplings: An analytic study
Networks of nonlinear units with time-delayed couplings can synchronize to a
common chaotic trajectory. Although the delay time may be very large, the units
can synchronize completely without time shift. For networks of coupled
Bernoulli maps, analytic results are derived for the stability of the chaotic
synchronization manifold. For a single delay time, chaos synchronization is
related to the spectral gap of the coupling matrix. For networks with multiple
delay times, analytic results are obtained from the theory of polynomials.
Finally, the analytic results are compared with networks of iterated tent maps
and Lang-Kobayashi equations which imitate the behaviour of networks of
semiconductor lasers
Full momentum- and energy-resolved spectral function of a 2D electronic system
The single-particle spectral function measures the density of electronic states in a material as a function of both momentum and energy, providing central insights into strongly correlated electron phenomena. Here we demonstrate a high-resolution method for measuring the full momentum- and energy-resolved electronic spectral function of a two-dimensional (2D) electronic system embedded in a semiconductor. The technique remains operational in the presence of large externally applied magnetic fields and functions even for electronic systems with zero electrical conductivity or with zero electron density. Using the technique on a prototypical 2D system, a GaAs quantum well, we uncover signatures of many-body effects involving electron-phonon interactions, plasmons, polarons, and a phonon analog of the vacuum Rabi splitting in atomic systems

Three-dimensional magnetic flux-closure patterns in mesoscopic Fe islands
We have investigated three-dimensional magnetization structures in numerous
mesoscopic Fe/Mo(110) islands by means of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism
combined with photoemission electron microscopy (XMCD-PEEM). The particles are
epitaxial islands with an elongated hexagonal shape with length of up to 2.5
micrometer and thickness of up to 250 nm. The XMCD-PEEM studies reveal
asymmetric magnetization distributions at the surface of these particles.
Micromagnetic simulations are in excellent agreement with the observed magnetic
structures and provide information on the internal structure of the
magnetization which is not accessible in the experiment. It is shown that the
magnetization is influenced mostly by the particle size and thickness rather
than by the details of its shape. Hence, these hexagonal samples can be
regarded as model systems for the study of the magnetization in thick,
mesoscopic ferromagnets.Comment: 12 pages, 11 figure
Mechanical characteristics of the hypereutectic silumin processed by ionelectron-plasma modification
In this paper, the possibility of modifying the surface of a hypereutectic silumin (Al-(18-24) wt.%Si) is shown. Modification of the samples was carried out in two stages. At the first stage, a "film (Zr-5% Ti-5% Cu) / (Al- (18-24) wt.% Si) film system was formed by an ion-plasma method with an arc-sputtering of a Zr-5% Ti-5 cathode % Cu in the "TRIO" installation (IHCE SB RAS). In the second stage, the surface layer of the silumin of the hypereutectic composition was doped by melting the "film-substrate" system with an intense pulsed electron beam at the "SOLO" installation
