Electron-phonon interaction via Pekar mechanism in nanostructures
We consider an electron-acoustic phonon coupling mechanism associated with
the dependence of crystal dielectric permittivity on the strain (the so-called
Pekar mechanism) in nanostructures characterized by strong confining electric
fields. The efficiency of Pekar coupling is a function of both the absolute
value and the spatial distribution of the electric field. It is demonstrated
that this mechanism exhibits a phonon wavevector dependence similar to that of
piezoelectricity and must be taken into account for electron transport
calculations in an extended field distribution. In particular, we analyze the
role of Pekar coupling in energy relaxation in silicon inversion layers.
Comparison with the recent experimental results is provided to illustrate its
potential significance

The Early Evolution of Massive Stars: Radio Recombination Line Spectra
Velocity shifts and differential broadening of radio recombination lines are
used to estimate the densities and velocities of the ionized gas in several
hypercompact and ultracompact HII regions. These small HII regions are thought
to be at their earliest evolutionary phase and associated with the youngest
massive stars. The observations suggest that these HII regions are
characterized by high densities, supersonic flows and steep density gradients,
consistent with accretion and outflows that would be associated with the
formation of massive stars.Comment: ApJ in pres
Holographic Structure Transfer from Dichromated Gelatin Layers to a Polymethylmethacrylate Substrate
It is shown that the formation of a holographic structure on the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) surface is based on the use of the destructive effect of short-wave UV radiation with a wavelength less than 270 nm through windows previously formed in a thin layer of dichromated gelatin (DCG) covering the substrate. The optimization of the PMMA surface treatment by isopropanol and methylisobutyl ketone (MIBK) developers was made, which allowed creating on the PMMA substrates relief-phase holographic gratings with the high diffraction efficiency (DE) of about 25% and maximum depth of the surface relief of the order of 1 μm.
Keywords: holographic gratings, surface relief, UV radiation, dichromated gelatin, polymethylmethacrylate, methylisobutyl ketone (MIBK)
Negative high-frequency differential conductivity in semiconductor superlattices
We examine the high-frequency differential conductivity response properties
of semiconductor superlattices having various miniband dispersion laws. Our
analysis shows that the anharmonicity of Bloch oscillations (beyond
tight-binding approximation) leads to the occurrence of negative high-frequency
differential conductivity at frequency multiples of the Bloch frequency. This
effect can arise even in regions of positive static differential conductivity.
The influence of strong electron scattering by optic phonons is analyzed. We
propose an optimal superlattice miniband dispersion law to achieve
high-frequency field amplification
