Renormalization of hole-hole interaction at decreasing Drude conductivity
The diffusion contribution of the hole-hole interaction to the conductivity
is analyzed in gated GaAs/InGaAs/GaAs heterostructures. We show
that the change of the interaction correction to the conductivity with the
decreasing Drude conductivity results both from the compensation of the singlet
and triplet channels and from the arising prefactor in the
conventional expression for the interaction correction.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
Electronic structure, magnetic and optical properties of intermetallic compounds R2Fe17 (R=Pr,Gd)
In this paper we report comprehensive experimental and theoretical
investigation of magnetic and electronic properties of the intermetallic
compounds Pr2Fe17 and Gd2Fe17. For the first time electronic structure of these
two systems was probed by optical measurements in the spectral range of 0.22-15
micrometers. On top of that charge carriers parameters (plasma frequency and
relaxation frequency) and optical conductivity s(w) were determined.
Self-consistent spin-resolved bandstructure calculations within the
conventional LSDA+U method were performed. Theoretical interpetation of the
experimental s(w) dispersions indicates transitions between 3d and 4p states of
Fe ions to be the biggest ones. Qualitatively the line shape of the theoretical
optical conductivity coincides well with our experimental data. Calculated by
LSDA+U method magnetic moments per formula unit are found to be in good
agreement with observed experimental values of saturation magnetization.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figures, 1 tabl
Design Principles for Sparse Matrix Multiplication on the GPU
We implement two novel algorithms for sparse-matrix dense-matrix
multiplication (SpMM) on the GPU. Our algorithms expect the sparse input in the
popular compressed-sparse-row (CSR) format and thus do not require expensive
format conversion. While previous SpMM work concentrates on thread-level
parallelism, we additionally focus on latency hiding with instruction-level
parallelism and load-balancing. We show, both theoretically and experimentally,
that the proposed SpMM is a better fit for the GPU than previous approaches. We
identify a key memory access pattern that allows efficient access into both
input and output matrices that is crucial to getting excellent performance on
SpMM. By combining these two ingredients---(i) merge-based load-balancing and
(ii) row-major coalesced memory access---we demonstrate a 4.1x peak speedup and
a 31.7% geomean speedup over state-of-the-art SpMM implementations on
real-world datasets.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figures, International European Conference on Parallel

Detection of mechanical resonance of a single-electron transistor by direct current
We have suspended an Al based single-electron transistor whose island can
resonate freely between the source and drain leads forming the clamps. In
addition to the regular side gate, a bottom gate with a larger capacitance to
the SET island is placed underneath to increase the SET coupling to mechanical
motion. The device can be considered as a doubly clamped Al beam that can
transduce mechanical vibrations into variations of the SET current. Our
simulations based on the orthodox model, with the SET parameters estimated from
the experiment, reproduce the observed transport characteristics in detail.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Electric fields in plasmas under pulsed currents
Electric fields in a plasma that conducts a high-current pulse are measured
as a function of time and space. The experiment is performed using a coaxial
configuration, in which a current rising to 160 kA in 100 ns is conducted
through a plasma that prefills the region between two coaxial electrodes. The
electric field is determined using laser spectroscopy and line-shape analysis.
Plasma doping allows for 3D spatially resolved measurements. The measured peak
magnitude and propagation velocity of the electric field is found to match
those of the Hall electric field, inferred from the magnetic-field front
propagation measured previously.Comment: 13 pages, 13 figures, submitted to PR
Metal-Insulator Transition in 2D: Experimental Test of the Two-Parameter Scaling
We report a detailed scaling analysis of resistivity \rho(T,n) measured for
several high-mobility 2D electron systems in the vicinity of the 2D
metal-insulator transition. We analyzed the data using the two parameter
scaling approach and general scaling ideas. This enables us to determine the
critical electron density, two critical indices, and temperature dependence for
the separatrix in the self-consistent manner. In addition, we reconstruct the
empirical scaling function describing a two-parameter surface which fits well
the \rho(T,n) data.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl
