Crystal Growth of REBCO High Temperature Superconductor by Top-Seeded Solution-Growth (TSSG), Top-Seeded Melt-Growth (TSMG), and Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE)
by: Prof. Xin Yao
Date: Tuesday August 30, 2011
Time: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Location: Houston Science Center – Building 593 — Room 102
Overview
For fundamental study and practical application, the crystal growth of REBCO (RE=Nd, Sm, Gd, Y) high temperature superconductors has been investigated in our crystal growth lab. The progress is reviewed on three aspects. 1) Single crystal of REBCO with large size, stoichiometry chemical composition control and excellent superconducting properties by Top-Seeded Solution-Growth (TSSG);2) Novel seeds and phase relation study on the growth of REBCO single domain bulk with the large size and high performance by Top-Seeded Melt-Growth (TSMG); 3) Orientation transition (out of plane, in-plane alignment), its mechanism and film properties by Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE). The phase formation and growth mode in various RE-Ba-Cu-O systems are discussed.

Special Seminar
Magneto-Optics of Dirac Fermions in Graphite
by: Dr. Milan Orlita
Date: Tuesday August 02, 2011
Time: 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Location: Houston Science Center – Building 593 — Room 102
Overview
Results of magneto-spectroscopic investigations of Dirac-like electronic states in various graphene-based materials, such as multilayer epitaxial graphene, bulk graphite or decoupled graphene flakes on graphite substrates, will be reported. Landau level spectroscopy will be shown to be a suitable method to study the electronic band structure of these systems as well as to evaluate their electronic quality in terms of the carrier mobility or scattering time.
