Jahn-Teller phonons inducing ferroelectricity in GaV4S8

Úterý, 14.06.2016 10:30 - 11:30

Jiri Hlinka (Oddělení dielektrik )

Interesting ferromagnetic ferroelectric system permitting skyrmionic spin structure phases has also a peculiar ferroelectric transition. We shall briefly report about theoretical and experimental studies of the lattice-dynamics aspects of this phase transition.

High-pressure behaviour of transition metal dichalcogenides MoS2, MoSe2 and MoTe2 from ab initio simulations

Úterý, 14.06.2016 15:00 - 16:00

Roman Martoňák (Department of Experimental Physics, Comenius University in Bratislava, Mlynská dolina F2, 842 48 Bratislava, Slovakia)

Abstract: We study the evolution of structural and electronic properties of layered semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides, MoX2 (X = S, Se, Te) upon increasing pressure, employing ab initio DFT calculations in combination with metadynamics and evolutionary search. We found that in MoS2 a layer sliding structural transition occurs at 20 GPa, converting the 2Hc stacking stable at ambient pressure to the 2Ha stacking (known in 2H-NbSe2)[1].

Optical trapping of silica nanoparticles in air

Čtvrtek, 16.06.2016 10:00 - 11:00

Lukáš Ondič (Fyzikální ústav AV ČR, v.v.i.; Cikrovarnická 10; Praha 6)

Tightly focused electromagnetic radiation (an optical beam) can be used to capture a small particle without physically touching it. This technique, which has led to a Nobel prize in physics and a whole new industry in biotechnology, could allow for example to explore new physical regimes when it is combined with cooling the particle to its quantum ground state.

Spin Seebeck effect in Fe3O4 heterostructures

Čtvrtek, 16.06.2016 14:00

Alberto Anadon (Universidad de Zaragoza, Spain)

The interaction between heat and spin currents has been a very active field of study and highly boosted recently since the discovery of the spin Seebeck effect (SSE). The mechanism and control of spin injection, detection and, in general, the optimization of SSE signal is still in progress.
