Computational and Spectroscopic Investigations of the Molecular Scale Structure and Dynamics of Geologically Important Fluids and Mineral-Fluid Interfaces

Description: Research supported by this grant focuses on molecular scale understanding of central issues related to the structure and dynamics of geochemically important fluids, fluid-mineral interfaces, and confined fluids using computational modeling and experimental methods. Molecular scale knowledge about fluid structure and dynamics, how these are affected by mineral surfaces and molecular-scale (nano-) confinement, and how water molecules and dissolved species interact with surfaces is essential to un… more

Revealing Charge Density Wave Formation in the LaTe2 System byAngle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy

Description: We present the first direct study of charge density wave(CDW) formation in quasi-2D single layer LaTe2 using high-resolutionangle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and low energy electrondiffraction (LEED). CDW formation is driven by Fermi surface (FS)nesting, however characterized by a surprisingly smaller gap (~;50 meV)than seen in the double layer RTe3 compounds, extending over the entireFS. This establishes LaTe2 as the first reported semiconducting 2D CDWsystem where the CDW phas… more

Probing the band structure of LaTe2 using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy

Description: With the current interest in the rare-earth tellurides ashigh temperature charge density wave materials, a greater understandingof the physics of these systems is needed, particularly in the case ofthe ditellurides. We report a detailed study of the band structure ofLaTe_2 in the charge density wave state using high-resolution angleresolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). From thiswork we hope toprovide insights into the successes and weaknesses of past theoreticalstudy as well as helping t… more

Schottky barrier height control at epitaxial NiAl/GaAs(001) interfaces by means of variable bandgap interlayers

Description: Recent developments in the use of interlayers to tailor the Schottky barrier height (SBH) at a metal/GaAs interface are discussed. The goal has been to gain control of band bending in the interfacial region by modifying both the interface Fermi energy and the charge density in the depletion region. The approach has been to grow both the interlayer and the metal overlayer under ultrahigh vacuum conditions by molecular beam epitaxy, and then to determine the chemistry of interface formation, stru… more

Scanning tunneling microscopy of charge density wave structure in 1T- TaS{sub 2}

Description: I have used a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) to image simultaneously the atomic lattice and the charge density wave (CDW) superstructure in tantalum disulfide (1T-TaS{sub 2}) over the temperature range of 370-77K. In the lowest temperature (commensurate) phase, present below 180K, the CDW is at an angle of 13.9{degrees} relative to the lattice and is uniformly commensurate. In the incommensurate phase, present above 353K, the CDW is aligned with the lattice. 1T-TaS{sub 2} exhibits two othe… more

2-MV electrostatic quadrupole injector for heavy-ion fusion

Description: High current and low emittance are principal requirements for heavy-ion injection into a linac driver for inertial fusion energy. An electrostatic quadrupole (ESQ) injector is capable of providing these high charge density and low emittance beams. We have modified the existing 2-MV Injector to reduce beam emittance and to double the pulse length. We characterize the beam delivered by the modified injector to the High Current Transport Experiment (HCX) and the effects of finite rise time of the … more
