The use of wind farms has great long-term potential as a highly efficient alternative source of cheap energy. The article is devoted to the development of new designs of wind power plants with the participation of the authors, which increase their energy, economic and operational efficiency. The developments concern designs that allow the use of a gearbox to be disconnected to connect a generator included in a wind farm. The principle of operation according to which depending on the magnitude of the voltage of the generator, ie the magnitude of the wind turbine speed, is connected to the thyristor rectifier one of the secondary windings of the transformer by means of switching on the corresponding pair of triacs by the device of selecting the working secondary winding. It is substantiated that any hardware logic or software-logic device, including a generator voltage sensor and threshold elements, will be used as a device for selecting the secondary transformer winding of the transformer, which will activate the corresponding pair of triacs depending on the voltage value of the generator. It is substantiated that the above-mentioned developments can be widely used in the creation of wind turbines with wind turbines of various design and purpose - with a horizontal or vertical axis of rotation, which includes generators for converting the energy of VP into electrical. It has been proved that the creation of an industrial or domestic wind turbine is one of the main tasks of ensuring an acceptable level of economic efficiency, realized by solving a number of technical problems.Применение ветроэнергетических установок имеет большой долгосрочный потенциал как высокоэффективный альтернативный источник дешевой энергии.

Influence of the pseudogap on the superconductivity-induced phonon renormalization in high-T superconductors
We investigate the influence of a d-density wave (DDW) gap on the
superconductivity-induced renormalization of phonon frequency and linewidth.
The results are discussed with respect to Raman and inelastic neutron
scattering experiments. It turns out that the DDW gap can enhance the range of
frequencies for phonon softening depending on the underlying band
structure. Moreover we show that an anisotropic 'd-wave' pseudogap can also
contribute to the q-dependent linewidth broadening of the 340cm phonon
in YBaCuO.Comment: 4 page
Nernst Effect and Superconducting Fluctuations in Zn-doped YBaCuO
We report the measurements of in-plane resistivity, Hall effect, and Nernst
effect in Zn doped YBaCuO epitaxial thin films grown
by pulsed laser deposition technique. The pseudogap temperature, ,
determined from the temperature dependence of resistivity, does not change
significantly with Zn doping. Meanwhile the onset temperature () of
anomalous Nernst signal above , which is interpreted as evidence for
vortex-like excitations, decreases sharply as the superconducting transition
temperature does. A significant decrease in the maximum of vortex
Nernst signal in mixed state is also observed, which is consistent with the
scenario that Zn impurities cause a decrease in the superfluid density and
therefore suppress the superconductivity. The phase diagram of ,
, and versus Zn content is presented and discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, Latex; v2: to be published in PR
Superconducting Gap and Strong In-Plane Anisotropy in Untwinned YBa2Cu3O7-d
With significantly improved sample quality and instrumental resolution, we
clearly identify in the (pi,0) ARPES spectra from YBa2Cu3O6.993, in the
superconducting state, the long-sought `peak-dip-hump' structure. This advance
allows us to investigate the large a-b anisotropy of the in-plane electronic
structure including, in particular, a 50% difference in the magnitude of the
superconducting gap that scales with the energy position of the hump feature.
This anisotropy, likely induced by the presence of the CuO chains, raises
serious questions about attempts to quantitatively explain the YBa2Cu3O7-d data
from various experiments using models based on a perfectly square lattice.Comment: Phys. Rev. Lett., in press. Revtex, 4 pages, 4 postscript figures

High-Q Supercavity Modes in Subwavelength Dielectric Resonators
Recent progress in nanoscale optical physics is associated with the development of a new branch of nanophotonics exploring strong Mie resonances in dielectric nanoparticles with a high refractive index. The high-index resonant dielectric nanostructures form building blocks for novel photonic metadevices with low losses and advanced functionalities. However, unlike extensively studied cavities in photonic crystals, such dielectric resonators demonstrate low quality factors (Q factors). Here, we uncover a novel mechanism for achieving giant Q factors of subwavelength nanoscale resonators by realizing the regime of bound states in the continuum. In contrast to the previously suggested multilayer structures with zero permittivity, we reveal strong mode coupling and Fano resonances in homogeneous high-index dielectric finite-length nanorods resulting in high-Q factors at the nanoscale. Thus, high-index dielectric resonators represent the simplest example of nanophotonic supercavities, expanding substantially the range of applications of all-dielectric resonant nanophotonics and meta-optics.Theoretical studies have been supported by the Ministry

Inelastic Light Scattering From Correlated Electrons
Inelastic light scattering is an intensively used tool in the study of
electronic properties of solids. Triggered by the discovery of high temperature
superconductivity in the cuprates and by new developments in instrumentation,
light scattering both in the visible (Raman effect) and the X-ray part of the
electromagnetic spectrum has become a method complementary to optical
(infrared) spectroscopy while providing additional and relevant information.
The main purpose of the review is to position Raman scattering with regard to
single-particle methods like angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES),
and other transport and thermodynamic measurements in correlated materials.
Particular focus will be placed on photon polarizations and the role of
symmetry to elucidate the dynamics of electrons in different regions of the
Brillouin zone. This advantage over conventional transport (usually measuring
averaged properties) indeed provides new insights into anisotropic and complex
many-body behavior of electrons in various systems. We review recent
developments in the theory of electronic Raman scattering in correlated systems
and experimental results in paradigmatic materials such as the A15
superconductors, magnetic and paramagnetic insulators, compounds with competing
orders, as well as the cuprates with high superconducting transition
temperatures. We present an overview of the manifestations of complexity in the
Raman response due to the impact of correlations and developing competing
orders. In a variety of materials we discuss which observations may be
understood and summarize important open questions that pave the way to a
detailed understanding of correlated electron systems.Comment: 62 pages, 48 figures, to appear in Rev. Mod. Phys. High-resolution

Superconductivity-induced Resonance Raman Scattering in Multi-layer High-Tc Superconductors
Resonant Raman scattering below Tc has been discovered in several Bi-, Hg-,
Tl-based high-Tc superconductors with three or four CuO2-layers. For
Bi2Si2Ca2Cu3O10+d, we found an unexpected crossover of the pair-breaking peak
in the A1g-spectrum from a broad bump at hw = 6kBTc for Eexc = 2.54eV to a
sharp peak at hw = 8kBTc for Eexc = 2.18eV, together with a strong enhancement
of the Ca-phonons. Under resonant conditions, the relative positions of the
pair breaking peaks in A1g, B1g, and B2g channels are 2Delta(A1g) = 2Delta(B1g)
> 2Delta(B2g). This relation implies that the A1g Raman channel is free from
the Coulomb screening effect, just as predicted theoretically for a d-wave
multi-layer superconductor but have never been observed experimentally thus
far. The observed resonance effect is the evidence that the electronic state in
the inner CuO2-planes is different from that of the outer CuO2-planes.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figures. submitted to Phys.Rev.
C-axis lattice dynamics in Bi-based cuprate superconductors
We present results of a systematic study of the c axis lattice dynamics in
single layer Bi2Sr2CuO6 (Bi2201), bilayer Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 (Bi2212) and trilayer
Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 (Bi2223) cuprate superconductors. Our study is based on both
experimental data obtained by spectral ellipsometry on single crystals and
theoretical calculations. The calculations are carried out within the framework
of a classical shell model, which includes long-range Coulomb interactions and
short-range interactions of the Buckingham form in a system of polarizable
ions. Using the same set of the shell model parameters for Bi2201, Bi2212 and
Bi2223, we calculate the frequencies of the Brillouin-zone center phonon modes
of A2u symmetry and suggest the phonon mode eigenvector patterns. We achieve
good agreement between the calculated A2u eigenfrequencies and the experimental
values of the c axis TO phonon frequencies which allows us to make a reliable
phonon mode assignment for all three Bi-based cuprate superconductors. We also
present the results of our shell model calculations for the Gamma-point A1g
symmetry modes in Bi2201, Bi2212 and Bi2223 and suggest an assignment that is
based on the published experimental Raman spectra. The
superconductivity-induced phonon anomalies recently observed in the c axis
infrared and resonant Raman scattering spectra in trilayer Bi2223 are
consistently explained with the suggested assignment.Comment: 29 pages, 13 figure
Raman scattering in C_{60} and C_{48}N_{12} aza-fullerene: First-principles study
We carry out large scale {\sl ab initio} calculations of Raman scattering
activities and Raman-active frequencies (RAFs) in
aza-fullerene. The results are compared with those of .
Twenty-nine non-degenerate polarized and 29 doubly-degenerate unpolarized RAFs
are predicted for . The RAF of the strongest Raman
signal in the low- and high-frequency regions and the lowest and highest RAFs
for are almost the same as those of .
The study of reveals the importance of electron correlations and
the choice of basis sets in the {\sl ab initio} calculations. Our best
calculated results for with the B3LYP hybrid density functional
theory are in excellent agreement with experiment and demonstrate the desirable
efficiency and accuracy of this theory for obtaining quantitative information
on the vibrational properties of these molecules.Comment: submitted to Phys.Rev.
