Since their discovery in 1895, the detection of X-rays has had a strong impact and various applications in several fields of science and human life [...]

An account is given of the main steps that led the research group in Rome, to which the author belongs, to the formulation of the charge-density-wave scenario for high- T c superconducting cuprates. The early finding of the generic tendency of...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) in spectroscopy mode receives a lot of attention because of its potential in distinguishing between healthy and cancer tissues. However, the AFM translational process in clinical practice is hindered by the fact that it...

The article presents the results of an experimental study of the transport of charge carriers through semiconductor PANI-polystyrene/ ferroelectric PVDF-TrFE interface. Current-voltage characteristics of the structure under study have a typical form...

It is very important to elucidate the mechanism of superconductivity for achieving room temperature superconductivity. In the first half of this paper, we give a brief review on mechanisms of superconductivity in many-electron systems. We believe tha...

In this work, we investigated the local colloidal structure of ferrofluid, in the presence of the external magnetic field. The nanoparticles studied here are of the core-shell type, with the core formed by manganese ferrite and maghemite shell, and w...

The phenomenon of superconductivity occurs in the phase space of three principal parameters: temperature T, magnetic field B, and current density j. The critical temperature T c is one of the first parameters that is measured and in a certain...

We discuss metallic 1T-MoS2 as an anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). In situ Raman is used to investigate the stability of metallic MoS2 during the charging and discharging processes. Parallel first-principles computations are used to ga...

We used an electronic phase separation approach to interpret the scaling between the low-temperature superfluid density average ρ sc ( 0 ) and the superconducting critical temperature T c on overdoped La 2 − x S...

In this review article we consider theoretically and give experimental support to the models of the Fermi-Bose mixtures and the BCS-BEC (Bardeen Cooper Schrieffer–Bose Einstein) crossover compared with the strong-coupling approach, which can se...
