Current Topics in Solid Condensed–Matter Physics
2010This chapter is concerned with some of the newer areas of solid condensed-matter physics and so contains a variety of topics in nanophysics, surfaces, interfaces, amorphous materials, and soft condensed matter.

Abstract The temperature dependence of dynamics of a soft matter chemisorbed on a solid-liquid interface oscillating at MHz was investigated using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Specifically, the relationship between the temperature and the resonant length of the soft matter was systematically examined, where the resonant length means the ...

Limiting long-range-ordered solids to finite sizes in condensed-matter physics
Phase Transitions, 1990Abstract We have examined some of the consequences of finite size effects in solids which exhibit cooperative behaviour. These are materials with long-range interactions based on ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, and superconductivity. Limiting the range of interaction is achieved by creating nanocrystals, nanodomains, disorder, high-concentration ...

Vortex matter in two dimensions: An introduction from a solid state physics viewpoint
Journal de Physique IV (Proceedings), 2004Motivated by possible applications to cold atomic gases in a rotating trap, we give an overview of some important concepts in two-dimensional vortex physics. In the context of Josephson junction arrays, we first discuss the crucial role payed by vortices in both the thermal superconducting to normal metal transition, and the zero temperature ...

A model for cold fusion in condensed matter is proposed (cold fusion of deuterons in palladium). It is assumed that the palladium-deuterium system forms an alloy, i.e., it is assumed that Pd ions as well as d+ ions are embedded in an uniform background of negative charge (conduction electrons).

The Physics Teacher: The Four States of Matter—Solid, Squishy, Liquid, and Gas
Journal of Chemical Education, 2007The featured article offers several demonstrations of substances that seem to be neither solid nor liquid, but somewhere in between. The authors suggest laboratory experiments that can be performed by beginning physics students, and suggest theoretical explanations for the strange viscosity behaviors.

Introduction to the Physics of Matter
2014This book offers an up-to-date, compact presentation of basic topics in the physics of matter, from atoms to molecules to solids, including elements of statistical mechanics. The adiabatic separation of the motion of electrons and nuclei in matter and its spectroscopic implications are outlined for molecules and recalled regularly in the study of the ...

Fractions of soil organic matter (SOM) were extracted by an integrated physical–chemical procedure and their chemical natures were characterized through 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. For the 0‐ to 5‐cm depth of a corn ( Zea mays L.)

Environmental context The mobility of soil organic matter and water molecules has a strong influence on the availability of fertilisers as well as on the fate of pollutants in soil. Magnetic resonance techniques identified two regimes of mobility change on the molecular level occurring on a timescale of 1 year ...

Textbooks often present the phenomenon of screening within the Thomas–Fermi model for three-dimensional free electron gases, but obtaining the dielectric response function and screening potential for dielectric systems of reduced dimensionality is also of pedagogical interest. In this work, we introduce a simple approach to investigate static screening
