Magnetotransport properties of FeSe in fields up to 50T
Magnetotransport properties of the high-quality FeSe crystal, measured in a
wide temperature range and in magnetic fields up to 50 T, show the symmetry of
the main holelike and electronlike bands in this compound. In addition to the
main two bands, there is also a tiny, highly mobile, electronlike band which is
responsible for the non-linear behavior of (B) at low temperatures
and some other peculiarities of FeSe. We observe the inversion of the
temperature coeficient at a magnetic field higher than about 20 T
which is an implicit conformation of the electron-hole symmetry in the main
bands.Comment: MISM 201
Gravitational cubic interactions for a massive mixed symmetry gauge field
In a recent paper arXiv:1107.1872 cubic gravitational interactions for a
massless mixed symmetry field in AdS space have been constructed. In the
current paper we extend these results to the case of massive field. We work in
a Fradkin-Vasiliev approach and use frame-like gauge invariant description for
massive field which works in (A)dS spaces with arbitrary values of cosmological
constant including flat Minkowski space. In this, massless limit in AdS space
coincides with the results of arXiv:1107.1872 while we show that it is
impossible to switch on gravitational interaction for massless field in dS
space.Comment: 13 page
Highly mobile carriers in orthorhombic phases of iron-based superconductors FeSeS
The field and temperature dependencies of the longitudinal and Hall
resistivity have been measured for FeSeS (x=0.04, 0.09 and
0.19) single crystals. The sample FeSeS does not show a
transition to an orthorhombic phase and exhibits at low temperatures the
transport properties quite different from those of orthorhombic samples. The
behavior of FeSeS is well described by the simple two
band model with comparable values of hole and electron mobility. In particular,
at low temperatures the transverse resistance shows a linear field dependence,
the magnetoresistance follow a quadratic field dependence and obeys to Kohler's
rule. In contrast, Kohler's rule is strongly violated for samples having an
orthorhombic low temperature structure. However, the transport properties of
the orthorhombic samples can be satisfactory described by the three band model
with the pair of almost equivalent to the tetragonal sample hole and electron
bands, supplemented with the highly mobile electron band which has two order
smaller carrier number. Therefore, the peculiarity of the low temperature
transport properties of the orthorhombic Fe(SeS) samples, as probably of many
other orthorhombic iron superconductors, is due to the presence of a small
number of highly mobile carriers which originate from the local regions of the
Fermi surface, presumably, nearby the Van Hove singularity points
Majority carrier type inversion in FeSe family and "doped semimetal" scheme in iron-based superconductors
The field and temperature dependencies of the longitudinal and Hall
resistivity have been studied for high-quality FeSeS (x up to
0.14) single crystals. Quasiclassical analysis of the obtained data indicates a
strong variation of the electron and hole concentrations under the studied
isovalent substitution and proximity of FeSe to the point of the majority
carrier-type inversion. On this basis, we propose a `doped semimetal' scheme
for the superconducting phase diagram of the FeSe family, which can be applied
to other iron-based superconductors. In this scheme, the two local maxima of
the superconducting temperature can be associated with the Van Hove
singularities of a simplified semi-metallic electronic structure. The
multicarrier analysis of the experimental data also reveals the presence of a
tiny and highly mobile electron band for all the samples studied. Sulfur
substitution in the studied range leads to a decrease in the number of mobile
electrons by more than ten times, from about 3\% to about 0.2\%. This behavior
may indicate a successive change of the Fermi level position relative to
singular points of the electronic structure which is consistent with the `doped
semimetal' scheme. The scattering time for mobile carriers does not depend on
impurities, which allows us to consider this group as a possible source of
unusual acoustic properties of FeSe

Evaluation of the accuracy of surgical reconstruction of mandibular defects when using navigation templates and patient-specific titanium implants
The management of patients with post-traumatic and post-operative mandibular defects is a major challenge even for experienced surgeons. Performing traditional reconstructive interventions with the use of bone autografts is always confronted with the problem of inconsistency between the shape, architecture, a biological. An alternative to conventional bone grafting is the use of digital protocol and CAD /CAMtechnology, which allows fabricating different types of customised medical devices. All patients underwent reconstructive and restoring interventions with the use of patient-specific titanium implants guided by a full digital protocol.Patients were examined in compliance with the standard scheme. To repair the defects, PSIs were fabricated with the use of selective laser sintering of titanium.The introduction of digital technologies and computer technique of diagnosing, planning and implementation of surgical interventions has been the main direction aimed at the improving the accuracy and predictability of reconstructive restorative surgery. Among the main achievements in this direction are the improvement of software and methods of computer modeling, as well as the introduction of CAD /CAMtechnology.The use of CAD /CAMtechnologies, in particular, navigational surgical templates and patient-specific implants for the repair of mandibular defects ensures a high level of accuracy and predictability
Superconducting properties of sulfur-doped iron selenide
The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in single-layer
iron selenide has generated significant experimental interest for optimizing
the superconducting properties of iron-based superconductors through the
lattice modification. For simulating the similar effect by changing the
chemical composition due to S doping, we investigate the superconducting
properties of high-quality single crystals of FeSeS (=0, 0.04,
0.09, and 0.11) using magnetization, resistivity, the London penetration depth,
and low temperature specific heat measurements. We show that the introduction
of S to FeSe enhances the superconducting transition temperature ,
anisotropy, upper critical field , and critical current density
. The upper critical field and its anisotropy are strongly
temperature dependent, indicating a multiband superconductivity in this system.
Through the measurements and analysis of the London penetration depth and specific heat, we show clear evidence for strong coupling two-gap
-wave superconductivity. The temperature-dependence of
calculated from the lower critical field and electronic specific heat can be
well described by using a two-band model with -wave-like gaps. We find that
a -wave and single-gap BCS theory under the weak-coupling approach can not
describe our experiments. The change of specific heat induced by the magnetic
field can be understood only in terms of multiband superconductivity.Comment: 13 pages, 7 figure
