Lifetime and surface-to-bulk scattering off vacancies of the topological surface state in the three-dimensional strong topological insulators Bi2Te3 and Bi2Se3 [PDF]
We analyze the finite lifetimes of the topologically protected electrons in the surface state of Bi2Te3 and Bi2Se3 due to elastic scattering off surface vacancies and as a function of energy. The scattering rates are decomposed into surface-to-surface and surface-to-bulk contributions, giving us new fundamental insights into the scattering properties ...

Effect of the Synthetic Parameters over ZnO in the CO2 Photoreduction
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is an attractive semiconductor material for photocatalytic applications, owing to its opto-electronic properties. Its performances are, however, strongly affected by the surface and opto-electronic properties (i.e., surface composition ...

Measurement of titanium surface roughness created by non-conventional cutting technology
The paper evaluates the surface roughness quality of the titanium samples created by abrasive waterjet (AWJ) and by CO2 laser beam cuttings. The introduction describes the principle of the mechanical (contact) method as well as the roughness parameters ...

On surfaces obtained as singular loci of normal congruences of frontals with pure-frontal singular points [PDF]
We study singularities and geometric properties of surfaces given by the singular loci of normal congruence of frontals with pure-frontal singular points. These surfaces consist of the normal ruled surface and focal surfaces of the initial frontal. For the normal ruled surface, we give characterizations of singularities in terms of geometric invariants
