3 d transition impurities in wide-gap oxides may function as donor/acceptor defects to modify
carrier concentrations, and as magnetic elements to induce collective magnetism. Previous …

Phase diagram, structure, and electronic properties of (GaZn)(NO) solid solutions from DFT-based simulations

L Li, JT Muckerman, MS Hybertsen, PB Allen - Physical Review B …, 2011 - APS
We construct an accurate cluster expansion for the (Ga 1-x Zn x)(N 1-x O x) solid solution,
based on density functional theory (DFT). The subsequent Monte Carlo simulation reveals a …

On the Relativity of the Speed of Light

XD Dongfang - ScienceOpen Preprints, 2020 - scienceopen.com
Einstein's assumption that the speed of light is constant is a fundamental principle of modern
physics with great influence. However, the nature of the principle of constant speed of light is …

Propagation of coherent and partially coherent pulses through one-dimensional photonic crystals

W Li-Gang, L Nian-Hua, L Qiang, Z Shi-Yao - Physical Review E—Statistical …, 2004 - APS
The propagation of coherent and partially coherent light pulses through a one-dimensional
photonic crystal (1 DPC) is investigated. The dependence of the evolution of the pulses …

Phase control of group velocity in a dielectric slab doped with three-level ladder-type atoms

D Jafari, M Sahrai, H Motavalli, M Mahmoudi - Physical Review A—Atomic …, 2011 - APS
Propagation of an electromagnetic pulse through a dielectric slab doped with three-level
ladder-type atomic systems is discussed. It is shown that the group velocity of the reflected …

Superluminal pulse reflection and transmission in a slab system doped with dispersive materials

LG Wang, H Chen, SY Zhu - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and …, 2004 - APS
The reflection and transmission of a pulse through a slab which is doped with two-level or
three-level atoms are investigated theoretically. The doped atoms can be passive …

Giant Kerr nonlinearity and weak-light superluminal optical solitons in a four-state atomic system with gain doublet

C Hang, G Huang - Optics Express, 2010 - opg.optica.org
We consider an active-Raman-gain scheme for realizing giant Kerr nonlinearity and
superluminal optical solitons in a four-state atomic system with a gain doublet. We show that …

Subluminal and superluminal light propagation via interference of incoherent pump fields

M Mahmoudi, M Sahrai, H Tajalli - Physics Letters A, 2006 - Elsevier
We investigate the dispersion and the absorption properties of a weak probe field in a four-
level atomic system by using the incoherent pumping fields. It is shown that the slope of the …

Intrinsic defects and dopability of zinc phosphide

S Demers, A van de Walle - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2012 - APS
Zinc phosphide (Zn 3 P 2) could be the basis for cheap and highly efficient solar cells. Its use
in this regard is limited by the difficulty in n-type doping of the material. In an effort to …

Superluminal optical soliton via resonant tunneling in coupled quantum dots

J Li, J Liu, X Yang - Physica E: Low-dimensional Systems and …, 2008 - Elsevier
We demonstrate the formation of superluminal optical soliton in an symmetry semiconductor
double quantum dot (QD) driven coherently by a weak pulsed laser using the tunnel …
