Raman scattering in high temperature superconductors : An integrated view
The common features in the Raman data of high temperature superconductors:
(the cuprates, bismathates, alkali doped fullerides and some organic
superconductors), are analyzed. It was shown that qualitative understanding of
the data can be achieved in terms of non-Fermi liquid models for their normal
state, with appropiate bag mechanisms for the superconducting state.Comment: To appear in Physica B (1996). Invited talk presented by S. N.

Raman spectra and Magnetization of all-ferromagnetic superlattices grown on (110) oriented SrTiO3
Superlattices consist of two ferromagnets La0.7Sr0.3MnO3(LSMO)and SrRuO3(SRO)
were grown in (110)-orientation on SrTiO3(STO) substrates. The x-ray
diffraction and Raman spectra of these superlattices show the presence of
in-plane compressive strain and orthorhombic structure of less than 4 u.c.
thick LSMO spacer,respectively. Magnetic measurements reveal several features
including reduced magnetization, enhanced coercivity, antiferromagnetic
coupling, and switching from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic coupling with
magnetic field orientations. These magnetic properties are explained by the
observed orthorhombic structure of spacer LSMO in Raman scattering which occurs
due to the modification in the stereochemistry of Mn at the interfaces of SRO
and LSMO
Relaxation of Collective Excitations in LJ-13 Cluster
We have performed classical molecular dynamics simulation of
cluster to study the behavior of collective excitations. In the solid ``phase''
of the cluster, the collective oscillation of the monopole mode can be well
fitted to a damped harmonic oscillator. The parameters of the equivalent damped
harmonic oscillator-- the damping coefficient, spring constant, time period of
oscillation and the mass of the oscillator -- all show a sharp change in
behavior at a kinetic temperature of about . This marks yet another
characteristic temperature of the system, a temperature below which
collective excitations are very stable, and at higher temperatures the single
particle excitations cause the damping of the collective oscillations. We argue
that so long as the cluster remains confined within the global potential energy
minimum the collective excitations do not decay; and once the cluster comes out
of this well, the local potential energy minima pockets act as single particle
excitation channels in destroying the collective motion. The effect is manifest
in almost all the physical observables of the cluster.Comment: Revised and enlarged. 6 pages RevTeX style. 7 eps figures available

Designs that talk and listen: Integrating functional information using voice-enabled CAD systems
In this paper, we report a novel approach to voice-enabled design synthesis and management. This approach consists of integrating “text-to-speech” and “speech-to-text” tools within a software prototype developed in MATLAB that connects seamlessly to a computer aided design software via an application program interface. Users can train the software to recognize specific words spoken by them and subsequently query for functions of individual parts or subassemblies. The results indicate the feasibility of interactive voice enabled product lifecycle management (PLM) tools in the future, where designing on the fly can be increasingly supported
