Small Fermi Surfaces and Strong Correlation Effects in Dirac Materials with Holography
Recent discovery of transport anomaly in graphene demonstrated that a system
known to be weakly interacting may become strongly correlated if system
parameter(s) can be tuned such that fermi surface is sufficiently small. We
study the strong correlation effects in the transport coefficients of Dirac
materials doped with magnetic impurity under the magnetic field using
holographic method. The experimental data of magneto-conductivity are well fit
by our theory, however, not much data are available for other transports of
Dirac material in such regime. Therefore, our results on heat
transport,thermo-electric power and Nernst coefficients are left as predictions
of holographic theory for generic Dirac materials in the vicinity of charge
neutral point with possible surface gap. We give detailed look over each
magneto-transport observable and 3Dplots to guide future experiments.Comment: 32 pages, 24 figure
Mott transition with Holographic Spectral function
We show that the Mott transition can be realized in a holographic model of a
fermion with bulk mass, , and a dipole interaction of coupling strength .
The phase diagram contains gapless, pseudo-gap and gapped phases and the first
one can be further divided into four sub-classes. We compare the spectral
densities of our holographic model with the Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT)
results for Hubbard model as well as the experimental data of Vanadium Oxide
materials. Interestingly, single-site and cluster DMFT results of Hubbard model
share some similarities with the holographic model of different parameters,
although the spectral functions are quite different due to the asymmetry in the
holography part. The theory can fit the X-ray absorption spectrum (XAS) data
quite well, but once the theory parameters are fixed with the former it can fit
the photoelectric emission spectrum (PES) data only if we symmetrize the
spectral function.Comment: 22 pages, 21 figures, v2 symmetrization arguments are abandoned, the
argument of Mott transition is still valid, but comparison with Hubbard model
is modified. Title is change
Fabrication and Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of CF/GNP Composites
AbstractCNT/CFRP (Carbon Nanotube/ Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) composites and GNP/CFRP (Graphene Nano platelet/ Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) have several excellent mechanical properties including, high strength, young's modulus, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, electronic shielding and so on. In this study, CNT/CFRP composites were manufactured by varying the CNT weight ratio as 2wt% and 3wt%, While GNP/CFRP composites were manufactured by varying the GNP weight ratio as 0.5wt% and 1wt%. The composites ware manufactured by mechanical method (3-roll-mill). Tensile, impact and wear tests were performed according to ASTM standards D638, D256 and D3181 respectively. It was observed that, increasing the CNT weight ratio improves the mechanical properties, e.g., tensile strength, impact and wear resistance
