Monolithic Silicon Light Sources
Monolithic silicon light sources (LEDs and lasers) could have a significant impact when integrated on silicon chips. After a general introduction to...
-
Monolithic Silicon Microphotonics
The technology evolution of optical interconnection is driven by the distance × product required for a given link. As such optical fiber deployment...

Critical Phenomena in a Small World
We consider the behavior of various systems on a small-world network near a critical point. Our starting point is a different, nonrandom system with...

Who Is the Best Connected Scientist?A Study of Scientific Coauthorship Networks
Using data from computer databases of scientific papers in physics, biomedical research, and computer science, we have constructed networks of...
-
Scholarly Information Network
I review the background and some recent trends of a particular scholarly information network, ar**v.org, and discuss some of its implications for new...
-
Information Theory of Complex Networks: On Evolution and Architectural Constraints
Complex networks are characterized by highly heterogeneous distributions of links, often pervading the presence of key properties such as robustness...
-
The Small World Phenomenonin Hybrid Power Law Graphs
The small world phenomenon, that consistently occurs in numerous existing networks, refers to two similar but different properties — small average...
-
Extremal Properties of Random Structures
The extremal characteristics of random structures, including trees, graphs, and networks, are discussed. A statistical physics approach is employed...
-
Spectral Analysis of Random Networks
We review a general approach that describes the spectra of eigenvalues for random graphs with a local tree-like structure. The exact equations to the...

Course 1: Nonequilibrium Phase Transitions
Nonequilibrium phase transitions are discussed with emphasis on general features such as the role of detailed balance violation in generating...
-
Course 2: Mechanical Aging and Non-linear Rheology of Concentrated Colloidal Suspensions: Experimental Facts and Simple Models
Many colloidal systems display very non-Newtonian and solid-like behaviour when concentrated, a striking feature being the apparition of a yield...

Real-Space Renormalization and Energy-Level Statistics at the Quantum Hall Transition
We review recent applications of the real-space renormalization group (RG) approach to the integer quantum Hall (QH) transition. The RG approach,...

Evidence for a Metal-Insulator Transition in Overdoped Cuprates: New Raman Results
Transport properties play a major role in the characterization of correlated metals such as the cuprates. The usual dc and optical conductivity...

From Digital to Analogue Magnetoelectronics: Theory of Transport in Non-collinear Magnetic Nanostructures
Magnetoelectronics is mainly digital, i.e. governed by up and down magnetizations. In contrast, analogue magnetoelectronics makes use of phenomena...

Modeling of Metals and Metal Sponges via Embedded Particle Computer Simulation
In this article we review the embedded atom method when adapted to study solid friction and the mechanical behavior of model metals. The method...

Scale Invariance and Dynamic Phase Transitions in Diffusion-Limited Reactions
Many systems that can be described in terms of diffusion-limited `chemical' reactions display non-equilibrium continuous transitions separating...

Fractional Aharonov-Bohm Oscillations in a Kondo Correlated Few-Electron Quantum Ring
We investigate a small quantum ring fabricated by local oxidation with an atomic force microscope. For strong tunnel coupling to the leads we observe...
