Solar cells of metal-free phthalocyanine dispersed in polyvinyl carbazole. 1: Effects of the recrystallization of H2PC on cell characteristics
The development of an organic semiconductor solar cell and the effects of the recrystallization of metal free phthalocyanine (H2PC) on the characteristics of NESA/H2PC-PVK/Au sandwich cells were investigated. Alfa-H2PC sandwich cells showed photovoltage and photocurrent in a two direction opposite to that shown y as supplied H2PC cells, which consists mainly of beta-H2PC. Some difference was observed in the response times of the two cells. It is suggested that photocharacteristics change with the specific resistance of the H2PC, which is related to its crystal forms. In the cells with low resistance H2PC carriers are generated in H2PC by illumination, while in high resistance H2PC cells, carriers are generated in PVK which is sensitized with H2PC
On the special values of certain L-series related to half-integral weight modular forms
Let h be a cuspidal Hecke eigenform of half-integral weight, and En/2+1/2 be Cohen’s Eisenstein series of weight n/2+1/2. For a Dirichlet character χ we define a certain linear combination R(χ)(s, h,En/+1/2) of the Rankin-Selberg convolution products of h and En/2+1/2 twisted by Dirichlet characters related with χ. We then prove a certain algebraicity result for R(χ)(l, h,En/2+1/2) with l integers
Non-vanishing of -functions associated to cusp forms of half-integral weight
In this article, we prove non-vanishing results for -functions associated
to holomorphic cusp forms of half-integral weight on average (over an
orthogonal basis of Hecke eigenforms). This extends a result of W. Kohnen to
forms of half-integral weight.Comment: 8 pages, Accepted for publication in Oman conference proceedings

Arithmetic Spacetime Geometry from String Theory
An arithmetic framework to string compactification is described. The approach
is exemplified by formulating a strategy that allows to construct geometric
compactifications from exactly solvable theories at . It is shown that the
conformal field theoretic characters can be derived from the geometry of
spacetime, and that the geometry is uniquely determined by the two-dimensional
field theory on the world sheet. The modular forms that appear in these
constructions admit complex multiplication, and allow an interpretation as
generalized McKay-Thompson series associated to the Mathieu and Conway groups.
This leads to a string motivated notion of arithmetic moonshine.Comment: 36 page
Magnetic and structural quantum phase transitions in CeCu6-xAux are independent
The heavy-fermion compound CeCuAu has become a model system for
unconventional magnetic quantum criticality. For small Au concentrations , the compound undergoes a structural transition from
orthorhombic to monoclinic crystal symmetry at a temperature with
for . Antiferromagnetic order sets in
close to . To shed light on the interplay between quantum
critical magnetic and structural fluctuations we performed neutron-scattering
and thermodynamic measurements on samples with . The
resulting phase diagram shows that the antiferromagnetic and monoclinic phase
coexist in a tiny Au concentration range between and . The
application of hydrostatic and chemical pressure allows to clearly separate the
transitions from each other and to explore a possible effect of the structural
transition on the magnetic quantum critical behavior. Our measurements
demonstrate that at low temperatures the unconventional quantum criticality
exclusively arises from magnetic fluctuations and is not affected by the
monoclinic distortion.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
