From semiclassical transport to quantum Hall effect under low-field Landau quantization
The crossover from the semiclassical transport to quantum Hall effect is
studied by examining a two-dimensional electron system in an AlGaAs/GaAs
heterostructure. By probing the magneto-oscillations, it is shown that the
semiclassical Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) formulation can be valid even when the
minima of the longitudinal resistivity approach zero. The extension of the
applicable range of the SdH theory could be due to the damping effects
resulting from disorder and temperature. Moreover, we observed plateau-plateau
transition like behavior with such an extension. From our study, it is
important to include the positive magnetoresistance to refine the SdH theory.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figure
Optical Properties and Enhanced Photothermal Conversion Efficiency of SiO2/A-Dlc Selective Absorber Films for A Solar Energy Collector Fabricated by Unbalance Sputter
AbstractSolar energy could become the most attractive alternative energy source. In this study we test an attractive new candidate material for solar energy collectors. It can be found that the higher the gas pressure is, the higher the sp2/sp3 area ratio, the greater the sputtering rate and the greater the optical absorption. The photothermal conversion efficiency of a SiO2 coating on the amorphous diamond-like carbon (a-DLC) selective absorber films deposited on the Cr/mirror like Al substrate is 93.2% as the film thickness of a SiO2 coating is 105nm. The coatings also increase the protective properties for a longer service life. This makes the SiO2 coated a-DLC film a promising new candidate material for solar selective absorber films. The SiO2/a-DLC selective absorber films also were deposited on the Al extrusion substrates
The Electric Dipole Moment and CP Violation in in SUGRA Models with Nonuniversal Gaugino Masses
The constraints of electric dipole moments (EDMs) of electron and neutron on
the parameter space in supergravity (SUGRA) models with nonuniversal gaugino
masses are analyzed. It is shown that with a light sparticle spectrum, the
sufficient cancellations in the calculation of EDMs can happen for all phases
being order of one in the small tan case and all phases but
() order of one in the large tan case. This is
in contrast to the case of mSUGRA in which in the parameter space where
cancellations among various SUSY contributions to EDMs happen
must be less than for small and for
large . Direct CP asymmetries and the T-odd polarization of lepton in
are investigated in the models. In the large tan case,
and for l= () can be enhanced by about a factor of
ten (ten) and ten (three) respectively compared to those of mSUGRA.Comment: 12 pages, latex, 4 figures, a few change
Thermodynamics on Noncommutative Geometry in Coherent State Formalism
The thermodynamics of ideal gas on the noncommutative geometry in the
coherent state formalism is investigated. We first evaluate the statistical
interparticle potential and see that there are residual "attraction (repulsion)
potential" between boson (fermion) in the high temperature limit. The
characters could be traced to the fact that, the particle with mass in
noncommutative thermal geometry with noncommutativity and temperature
will correspond to that in the commutative background with temperature
. Such a correspondence implies that the ideal gas energy
will asymptotically approach to a finite limiting value as that on commutative
geometry at . We also investigate the squeezed
coherent states and see that they could have arbitrary mean energy. The thermal
properties of those systems are calculated and compared to each other. We find
that the heat capacity of the squeezed coherent states of boson and fermion on
the noncommutative geometry have different values, contrast to that on the
commutative geometry.Comment: Add analysis about thermodynamics of squeezed coherent state, Latex

Diagnostic for Dilaton Dark Energy
diagnostic can differentiate between different models of dark energy
without the accurate current value of matter density. We apply this geometric
diagnostic to dilaton dark energy(DDE) model and differentiate DDE model from
LCDM. We also investigate the influence of coupled parameter on the
evolutive behavior of with respect to redshift . According to the
numerical result of , we get the current value of equation of state
=-0.952 which fits the WMAP5+BAO+SN very well.Comment: 6 pages and 6 figures
