Kinetic stabilization of Fe film on (4 by 2)-GaAs(100)
We grow Fe film on (4 by 2)-GaAs(100) at low temperature, (~ 130 K) and study
their chemical structure by photoelectron spectroscopy using synchrotron
radiation. We observe the effective suppression of As segregation and
remarkable reduction of alloy formation near the interface between Fe and
substrate. Hence, this should be a way to grow virtually pristine Fe film on
GaAs(100). Further, the Fe film is found stable against As segregation even
after warmed up to room temperature. There only forms very thin, ~ 8 angstrom
thick interface alloy. It is speculated that the interface alloy forms via
surface diffusion mediated by interface defects formed during the low
temperature growth of the Fe film. Further out-diffusion of both Ga and As are
suppressed because it should then proceed via inefficient bulk diffusion.Comment: 4 figure
Herd Behaviors in Financial Markets
We investigate the herd behavior of returns for the yen-dollar exchange rate
in the Japanese financial market. It is obtained that the probability
distribution of returns satisfies the power-law behavior with the exponents (the time interval
one minute) and 3.36( one day). The informational cascade regime appears
in the herding parameter at one minute, while it occurs no
herding at one day. Especially, we find that the distribution of
normalized returns shows a crossover to a Gaussian distribution at one time
step day.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figure
Dynamics of Morphology-Dependent Resonances by Openness in Dielectric Disk for TE polarization
We have studied the dynamics of morphology-dependent resonances by openness
in a dielectric microdisk for TE polarization. For the first time, we report
that the dynamics exhibits avoided resonance crossings between inner and outer
resonances even though the corresponding billiard is integrable. Due to the
avoidance, inner and outer resonances can be exchanged and -factor of inner
resonances is strongly affected. We analyze the diverse phenomena aroused from
the dynamics including the avoided crossings.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
