Experiments have demonstrated that thin discontinuous Mo films deposited on oxidized Si wafers may possess the capability of low-field electron emission. For different samples with effective thickness 2–6 nm the emission threshold (macroscopic electric field) varied between 3.0 and $6.5 mathbf{V}/boldsymbol{mu} mathbf{m}$. Titanium films having similar parameters showed to be incapable of emission field magnitudes $sim 10 mathbf{V}/boldsymbol{mu} mathbf{m}$. Results of AFM and SEM studies allowed us to associate this difference with different morphology of the deposited films. Films of Mo were comprised by separated irregular islands with 5–10 nm height and lateral sizes of tens of nanometers. Films of Ti were also discontinuous but consisted of larger domains having distinctly dendritic structure. These new findings are in good agreement with the results of previous studies performed with carbon island films.

This article investigates contribution to the free energy of thin protein films, deposited on substrates made of inorganic materials, which is caused by fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. It is shown that for thinner than $1 mu mathbf{m}$ protein films deposited on a silica glass substrate the magnitude of the fluctuation-induced free energy is of order 0.1 fJ/mm2, Dependence of this free energy on the volume fraction of plasticizer and on the film thickness are found.

Three experimental methods employed for investigation of surface acoustic waves (SAW) were used to optimize a lithium niobate integrated optical TE-TM mode convertor. These were network analyzer measurements of interdigital transducers (IDTs), diffraction measurements at 532 nm, and fiber optic interferometery. The samples with five different configurations of IDTs were investigated. The methods give complementary data about SAW excitation, distribution, and interaction with light and can be efficiently used for optimization and quality control of different SAW devices.

We present the results on the normal-state Nernst coefficient, $boldsymbol{Q}$, in the $mathbf{Y}_{1-boldsymbol{x}}mathbf{Ca}_{boldsymbol{x}}mathbf{Ba}_{2}mathbf{Cu}_{2.8}mathbf{Zn}_{0.2}mathbf{O}_{boldsymbol{y}}$ samples with different calcium content. The experimental $boldsymbol{Q}(boldsymbol{T})$ dependences were measures and quantitatively analyzed within a narrow-band model using the results obtained previously from the thermopower analysis. The values of the electron mobility and the asymmetry degree of the dispersion law were determined and their variations with increasing calcium content were discussed.

Spectrally efficient frequency division multiplexing (SEFDM) is considered from the Euclidean distance point of view. The simulations are performed for QPSK modulated subcarriers with different bandwidth compression factor values (0.5, 0.75 and 1) in the presence and absence of average power equalization. It is shown that SEFDM N-dimensional points have a few very close interfering points for medium compression factors. Thus, a special rule can be used to choose particular $N$-dimensional points to increase BER performance of SEFDM. The proposed results are useful for SEFDM coded modulation schemes development where non-informational subcarriers are chosen in the same way as in block error correction schemes.

The analytical expressions for estimating the spatial distributions of quasi-static electric field are obtained for the near-field zone of single-layer solenoidal inductors surrounded outside by a thin dielectric wall and then by a medium with complex permittivity. It is shown that the presence of such a wall leads to the increase of self-capacitance, effective inductance and active resistance of inductor. The efficacy of active power transfer to the conducting medium increases in comparison with the case of absence of said wall.

For the first time we propose a new “dry” technology for the decontaminating of the nuclear power plant (NPP) constructions by the ion sputtering of the nano- and micro-sized radioactive layers from the contaminated surface, the sputtering process is provided by a special configuration plasma discharge in an inert gas. Unlike the traditional radiochemical deactivation methods, which form the large volume of a liquid radioactive waste (LRW), the proposed technology allows to condense the removed radionuclides in a compact solid form. This technology is important both for the decommissioning of a NPP (including the deactivation of irradiated reactor graphite) and in the current operations and planned repairs of nuclear reactors. In addition, the another important opportunity of the technology is producing of new materials like a beta-active “nano-micro-sandwich” (enriched with radioisotope 14C or other.) for the useful applications, e.g. in a nuclear medicine and for a new type of betavoltaic batteries.
