Fourier transformation study of the Franz-Keldysh Oscillation in SIN+ GaAs structures

Fourier transformation (FT) method has been used in the theoretical lineshape analysis of the Franz-Keldysh Oscillation (FKO) in detail by numerical simulation. The FKO of a set of GaAs SIN+ samples was obtained in photoreflectance measurements. The FT spectra of a part of the samples,including of the real part,imaginary part, and mode of the FT,are well consistent with the theoretical lineshapes. The ratio of the square root of the reduced mass of the light hole (LH) to the heavy hole (HH), root mu(1)/root mu(h), obtained in the analysis was in the range of 0.805 to 0.816 for different samples. In addition,the built-in electric field F-1, and the modulation field delta F = F-1 - F-2 induced by photo-modulation were also obtained in the analysis. However,for a few samples great difference was found in the lineshape of the real part and imaginary part of their FT spectra from the theoretical lineshape. In this case the mode of the FT spectra still can be used to obtain useful information.

Franz-Keldysh effect and dynamical Franz-Keldysh effect of cylindrical quantum wires

We investigate the interband optical absorption spectra near the band edge of a cylindrical semiconductor quantum wire in the presence of a static electric field and a terahertz electric field polarized along the axis. Optical absorption spectra are nonperturbatively calculated by solving the low-density semiconductor Bloch equations in real space and real time. The influence of the Franz-Keldysh (FK) effect and dynamical FK effect on the absorption spectrum is investigated. To highlight the physics behind the FK effect and dynamical FK effect, the spatiotemporal dynamics of the polarization wave packet are also presented. Under a reasonable static electric field, substantial and tunable absorption oscillations appear above the band gap. A terahertz field, however, will cause the Autler-Townes splitting of the main exciton peak and the emergence of multiphoton replicas. The presented results suggest that semiconductor quantum wires have potential applications in electro-optical devices.

SIN~+GaAs结构中的Franz-Keldysh振荡的傅里叶变换研究

利用傅里叶变换(FT)方法，对Franz-Keldysh振荡(FKO)的理论线性作了详细的数值模拟，并用光调制反射谱(PR)测量了一组本征层(I层)厚度不同的表面-本征层n-型重掺杂层(SIN~+)结构的GaAs样品的FKO.PR谱的FT分析表明，一部分样品的FT谱，包括其实部、虚部和模，与理论线性符合得比较好，由此求出轻空空(LH)和重空穴(HH)的约化质量平方根之比μ_1~(1/2)/(μ_h)~(1/2)对不同样品在0.805-0.816之间，同时也可以求出样品中的内建电场强度F_1，和调制光引起的调制电场δF=F_1-F_2。有一些样品的FT谱实部和虚部与理论线性差别很大，用FT的模仍可以给出有用的信息。

SELECTED CHARACTER PIECES OF FRÉDÉRIC CHOPIN (1810-1849), FRANZ LISZT (1811-1886) AND JOHANNES BRAHMS (1833-1897)

During the 19th century, Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849), Franz Liszt (1811- 1886), and Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) were among the most recognized composers of character pieces. Their compositions have been considered a significant milestone in piano literature. Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849) did not give descriptive titles to his character pieces. He grouped them into several genres such as Mazurkas, Polonaises. His Mazurkas and Polonaises are influenced by Polish dance music and inspired by the polish national idiom. Franz Liszt (1811-1886) was influenced in many ways by Chopin, and adopted Chopin’s lyricism, melodic style, and tempo rubato. However, Liszt frequently drew on non-musical subjects (e.g., art, literature) for inspiration. “Harmonies poétiques et religieuses” and “Années de pèlerinage” are especially representative of character pieces in which poetic and pictorial imagination are reflected. Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) was a conservative traditionalist, synthesizing Romantic expression and Classical tradition remarkably well. Like Chopin, Brahms avoided using programmatic titles for his works. The titles of Brahms’ short character pieces are often taken from traditional lyrical or dramatic genres such as ballade, rhapsody and scherzo. Because of his conservatism, Brahms was considered the main rival of Liszt in the Romantic Period. Brahms character pieces in his third period (e.g., Scherzo Op.4, Ballades of Op.10, and Rhapsodies of Op.79) are concise and focused. The form of Brahms’ character pieces is mostly simple ternary (ABA), and his style is introspective and lyrical. Through this recording project, I was able to get a better understanding of the styles of Chopin, Brahms and Liszt through their character pieces. This recording dissertation consists of two CDs recorded in the Dekelboum Concert Hall at the University of Maryland, College Park. These recordings are documented on compact disc recordings that are housed within the University of Maryland Library System.

Franz Rosenzweig. Der Stern der Erlösung

Den Konflikt zwischen Modernität und jüdisch-orthodoxer Glaubenspraxis trug Franz Rosenzweig auf seine ganz eigene Art aus. Die Bewegung führt dramatisch von der noblen Peripherie in das Zentrum jüdischen Lebens und dessen Lehr- und Glaubenspraxis. Für das Werk von Emmanuel Levinas stellt Franz Rosenzweig wohl die wichtigste Referenz dar. "Mit ihrem „messianischen“ Zeitkonzept ist die jüdische Religion den Erfahrungsreligionen näher als das Christentum. Das Judentum, so schreibt Karlheinz Kleinbach in seinem Portrait des jüdischen Philosophen Franz Rosenzweig, „lebt innerweltlich in der Gegenwärtigkeit. Liturgie und Ritus stehen nicht im Gegensatz zum alltäglichen Leben, sondern sind vielmehr dessen Existenzmodus.“ Mensch und Gott und Welt sind für Rosenzweig nicht zu verbindende Elemente. Nur in der Gemeinschaft, im Gespräch wird es möglich, das trennende „Und“ zu überbrücken" (Reusch)

'Like waking up in a Franz Kafka novel': Service users' experiences of the child protection system when domestic violence and acrimonious separations are involved

The challenges that arise in respect of child abuse reports made in the context of domestic violence and/or acrimonious separation have been the subject of recent academic discussion. This paper adds a service user perspective to the debate and reports on the findings from a study conducted in the Republic of Ireland. In addition to the previously established evidence about such cases, it demonstrates the level of powerlessness and frustration experienced by families who found it difficult to have their needs heard or met. It also illustrates the very detrimental emotional impact on children and parents who frequently encountered indifference as well as insensitive and gendered responses from child protection staff. The findings indicate that mainstream statutory child protection services do not have the capacity to deal with these complex cases, and advocates the adoption of alternative approaches. Importantly, the study demonstrates the necessity to pay attention to the views of service users in developing an appropriate response.
