Inner tube growth and electronic properties of metallicity-sorted nickelocene-filled semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes
In the present work, we have obtained metallicity-sorted nickelocene-filled semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by density gradient separation of metallicity mixed filled nanotubes. Double-w...

Ultrafast Relaxation of the S2 Excited State in β-Carotene and its Homologs: A Role of Intermediate States
Time-resolved absorbance change and fluorescence in carotenoids with several conjugation lengths have been investigated. Ultrafast optical responses are explained by relaxation of excited states and resonant n...

Dynamics of Carotenoids Probed by Femtosecond Absorption, Fluorescence, and Raman Spectroscopy
Ultrafast optical responses in β-carotene and lycopene depend on the pump wavelength. Excess vibrational energy induced by the photoexcitation remains longer than several picoseconds in the excited states and slo...

A new formulation of relative entropy and quantum measurements
We give a new formulation of relative entropy among density operators by identifying density operators with covariance operators of probability measures on real separable Hilbert space and obtain relations bet...

Thermography of Face and Neck of Patients after Cerebral Apoplexy
It is reported that the patients after cerebral apoplexy have generally lower skin temperatures on the affected side than on the non-affected side.1,2 We have found that the limbs of patients are colder on the af...
