Space Charge Limited Transport and Time of Flight Measurements in Tetracene Single Crystals: a Comparative Study
We report on a systematic study of electronic transport in tetracene single
crystals by means of space charge limited current spectroscopy and time of
flight measurements. Both - and time of flight measurements show that the
room-temperature effective hole-mobility reaches values close to
cm/Vs and show that, within a range of temperatures, the mobility increases
with decreasing temperature. The experimental results further allow the
characterization of different aspects of the tetracene crystals. In particular,
the effects of both deep and shallow traps are clearly visible and can be used
to estimate their densities and characteristic energies. The results presented
in this paper show that the combination of - measurements and time of
flight spectroscopy is very effective in characterizing several different
aspects of electronic transport through organic crystals.Comment: Accepted by J. Appl. Phys.; tentatively scheduled for publication in

All bicovariant differential calculi on Glq(3,C) and SLq(3,C)
All bicovariant first order differential calculi on the quantum group
GLq(3,C) are determined. There are two distinct one-parameter families of
calculi. In terms of a suitable basis of 1-forms the commutation relations can
be expressed with the help of the R-matrix of GLq(3,C). Some calculi induce
bicovariant differential calculi on SLq(3,C) and on real forms of GLq(3,C). For
generic deformation parameter q there are six calculi on SLq(3,C), on SUq(3)
there are only two. The classical limit q-->1 of bicovariant calculi on
SLq(3,C) is not the ordinary calculus on SL(3,C). One obtains a deformation of
it which involves the Cartan-Killing metric.Comment: 24 pages, LaTe
On the symmetry breaking phenomenon
We investigate the problem of symmetry breaking in the framework of dynamical
systems with symmetry on a smooth manifold. Two cases will be analyzed: general
and Hamiltonian dynamical systems. We give sufficient conditions for symmetry
breaking in both cases
The Weyl bundle as a differentiable manifold
Construction of an infinite dimensional differentiable manifold not modelled on any Banach space is proposed. Definition, metric
and differential structures of a Weyl algebra and a Weyl algebra bundle are
presented. Continuity of the -product in the Tichonov topology is
proved. Construction of the -product of the Fedosov type in terms of theory
of connection in a fibre bundle is explained.Comment: 31 pages; revised version - some typoes have been eliminated,

Strong Connections on Quantum Principal Bundles
A gauge invariant notion of a strong connection is presented and
characterized. It is then used to justify the way in which a global curvature
form is defined. Strong connections are interpreted as those that are induced
from the base space of a quantum bundle. Examples of both strong and non-strong
connections are provided. In particular, such connections are constructed on a
quantum deformation of the fibration . A certain class of strong
-connections on a trivial quantum principal bundle is shown to be
equivalent to the class of connections on a free module that are compatible
with the q-dependent hermitian metric. A particular form of the Yang-Mills
action on a trivial U\sb q(2)-bundle is investigated. It is proved to
coincide with the Yang-Mills action constructed by A.Connes and M.Rieffel.
Furthermore, it is shown that the moduli space of critical points of this
action functional is independent of q.Comment: AMS-LaTeX, 40 pages, major revision including examples of connections

Structural Transitions and Global Minima of Sodium Chloride Clusters
In recent experiments on sodium chloride clusters structural transitions
between nanocrystals with different cuboidal shapes were detected. Here we
determine reaction pathways between the low energy isomers of one of these
clusters, (NaCl)35Cl-. The key process in these structural transitions is a
highly cooperative rearrangement in which two parts of the nanocrystal slip
past one another on a {110} plane in a direction. In this way the
nanocrystals can plastically deform, in contrast to the brittle behaviour of
bulk sodium chloride crystals at the same temperatures; the nanocrystals have
mechanical properties which are a unique feature of their finite size. We also
report and compare the global potential energy minima for (NaCl)NCl- using two
empirical potentials, and comment on the effect of polarization.Comment: extended version, 13 pages, 8 figures, revte
Gauge Orbit Types for Theories with Classical Compact Gauge Group
We determine the orbit types of the action of the group of local gauge
transformations on the space of connections in a principal bundle with
structure group O(n), SO(n) or over a closed, simply connected manifold
of dimension 4. Complemented with earlier results on U(n) and SU(n) this
completes the classification of the orbit types for all classical compact gauge
groups over such space-time manifolds. On the way we derive the classification
of principal bundles with structure group SO(n) over these manifolds and the
Howe subgroups of SO(n).Comment: 57 page
Effect of Impurities on Pentacene Thin Film Growth for Field-Effect Transistors
Pentacenequinone (PnQ) impurities have been introduced into a pentacene
source material at number densities from 0.001 to 0.474 to quantify the
relative effects of impurity content and grain boundary structure on transport
in pentacene thin-film transistors. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and
electrical measurements of top-contact pentacene thin-film transistors have
been employed to directly correlate initial structure and final film
structures, with the device mobility as a function of added impurity content.
The results reveal a factor four decrease in mobility without significant
changes in film morphology for source PnQ number fractions below ~0.008. For
these low concentrations, the impurity thus directly influences transport,
either as homogeneously distributed defects or by concentration at the
otherwise-unchanged grain boundaries. For larger impurity concentrations, the
continuing strong decrease in mobility is correlated with decreasing grain
size, indicating an impurity-induced increase in the nucleation of grains
during early stages of film growth.Comment: 18 pages, 4 Figures, 1 Tabl
