Unforeseen high temperature and humidity stability of FeCl3 intercalated few layer graphene

This is the final version of the article. Available from the publisher via the DOI in this record.We present the first systematic study of the stability of the structure and electrical properties of FeCl3 intercalated few-layer graphene to high levels of humidity and high temperature. Complementary experimental techniques such as electrical transport, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy conclusively demonstrate the unforseen stability of this transparent conductor to a relative humidity up to 100% at room temperature for 25 days, to a temperature up to 150°C in atmosphere and to a temperature as high as 620°C in vacuum, that is more than twice higher than the temperature at which the intercalation is conducted. The stability of FeCl3 intercalated few-layer graphene together with its unique values of low square resistance and high optical transparency, makes this material an attractive transparent conductor in future flexible electronic applications

Many--Particle Correlations in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions

Many--particle correlations due to Bose-Einstein interference are studied in ultrarelativistic heavy--ion collisions. We calculate the higher order correlation functions from the 2--particle correlation function by assuming that the source is emitting particles incoherently. In particular parametrizations of and relations between longitudinal, sidewards, outwards and invariant radii and corresponding momenta are discussed. The results are especially useful in low statistics measurements of higher order correlation functions. We evaluate the three--pion correlation function recently measured by NA44 and predict the 2--pion--2--kaon correlation function. Finally, many particle Coulomb corrections are discussed.Comment: 5 corrected misprints, 14 pages, revtex, epsfig, 6 figures included, manuscript also available at http://www.nbi.dk/~vischer/publications.htm

Periodic magnetoconductance fluctuations in triangular quantum dots in the absence of selective probing

We have studied the magnetoconductance of quantum dots with triangular symmetry and areas down to 0.2 square microns, made in a high mobility two-dimensional electron gas embedded in a GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructure. Semiclassical simulations show that the gross features in the measured magnetoconductance are caused by ballistic effects. Below 1 K we observe a strong periodic oscillation, which may be explained in terms of the Aharanov-Bohm flux quantization through the area of a single classical periodic orbit. From a numerical and analytical analysis of possible trajectories in hard- and soft-walled potentials, we identify this periodic orbit as the enscribed triangle. Contrary to other recent experiments, this orbit is not accessible by classical processes for the incoming collimated beam.Comment: RevTex 8 pages, including 5 postscript figure

Freeze-Out Time in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions from Coulomb Effects in Transverse Pion Spectra

The influence of the nuclear Coulomb field on transverse spectra of $\pi^+$ and $\pi^-$ measured in $Pb+Pb$ reactions at 158 A GeV has been investigated. Pion trajectories are calculated in the field of an expanding fireball. The observed enhancement of the $\pi^-/\pi^+$ ratio at small momenta depends on the temperature and transverse expansion velocity of the source, the rapidity distribution of the net positive charge, and mainly the time of the freeze-out.Comment: 11 pages including 2 figure

Observing Non-Gaussian Sources in Heavy-Ion Reactions

We examine the possibility of extracting non-Gaussian sources from two-particle correlations in heavy-ion reactions. Non-Gaussian sources have been predicted in a variety of model calculations and may have been seen in various like-meson pair correlations. As a tool for this investigation, we have developed an improved imaging method that relies on a Basis spline expansion of the source functions with an improved implementation of constraints. We examine under what conditions this improved method can distinguish between Gaussian and non-Gaussian sources. Finally, we investigate pion, kaon, and proton sources from the p-Pb reaction at 450 GeV/nucleon and from the S-Pb reaction at 200 GeV/nucleon studied by the NA44 experiment. Both the pion and kaon sources from the S-Pb correlations seem to exhibit a Gaussian core with an extended, non-Gaussian halo. We also find evidence for a scaling of the source widths with particle mass in the sources from the p-Pb reaction.Comment: 16 pages, 15 figures, 5 tables, uses RevTex3.

(Anti)Proton and Pion Source Sizes and Phase Space Densities in Heavy Ion Collisions

NA44 has measured mid-rapidity deuteron spectra from AA collisions at sqrt{s}=18GeV/A at the CERN SPS. Combining these spectra with published proton, antiproton and antideuteron data allows us to calculate, within a coalescence framework, proton and antiproton source sizes and phase space densities. These results are compared to pion source sizes and densities, pA results and to lower energy (AGS) data. The antiproton source is larger than the proton source at sqrt{s}=18GeV/A. The phase space densities of pions and protons are not constant but grow with system size. Both pi+ and proton radii decrease with transverse mass and increase with sqrt{s}. Pions and protons do not freeze-out independently. The nature of their interaction changes as sqrt{s}, and the pion/proton ratio increases.Comment: 4 pages, Latex 2.09, 3 eps figures. Changes for January 2001. The proton source size is now calculated assuming a more realistic Hulthen, rather than Gaussian, wavefunction. A new figure shows the effect of this change which is important for small radii. A second new figure shows the results of RQMD calculations of the proton source size and phase density. Because of correlations between position and momentum coalesence does not show the full proton source size. The paper has been streamlined and readability improve

Harmonic Content of Strain-induced Potential Modulation in Unidirectional Lateral Superlattices

Detailed analysis of the commensurability oscillation (CO) has been performed on unidirectional lateral superlattices with periods ranging from a=92 to 184 nm. Fourier analysis reveals the second (and the third) harmonics along with the fundamental oscillation for a>=138 nm (184 nm) at low-enough temperature, evincing the presence of corresponding harmonics in the profile of the potential modulation. The harmonics manifest themselves in CO with demagnified amplitude due to the low-pass filtering action of the thermal damping factor; with a suitable consideration of the damping effect, the harmonics of the modulation potential are found to have the amplitudes V_2 and V_3 up to roughly 30% of that of the fundamental component V_1, despite the small ratio of the period a to the depth d = 99 nm of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) from the surface. The dependence of V_n on a indicates that the fundamental component originates at the surface, while the higher harmonics arise from the effect of the strain that penetrates down into subsurface. The manipulation of high harmonics thus provides a useful technique to introduce small length-scale modulation into high-mobility 2DEGs located deep inside the wafer.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figure
