TL;DR: In this paper, the transformation from chemical disorder to order in thin films of an intermetallic ferromagnet (FePd) may be triggered and controlled Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations show that the initial directional short range order determines the transformation Magnetic ordering perpendicular to the film plane was achieved, promoting the initially weak magnetic anisotropy.

TL;DR: The results show that accurate distance measurements can be performed at the single particle level using graphene-based molecular rulers and that energy transfer allows probing dimensionality effects at the nanoscale.

TL;DR: In this paper, the x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) at the K edge of the diluted magnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn) was calculated using the linearized augmented plane wave method.

TL;DR: In this paper, the distance dependence of the energy transfer rate from individual, (i) zero-dimensional CdSe/CdS nanocrystals and (ii) two-dimensional cdSe, CdS/ZnS nanoplatelets to a graphene monolayer was investigated, and accurate distance measurements can be performed at the single particle level using graphene-based molecular rulers.

TL;DR: It is shown how this remarkable behavior in a solid-state device reflects a quenching in the transmission of particular electronic states, as expected from the symmetry-filtering properties of the MgO barrier and the band structure of the bcc Cr(001) spacer in the epitaxial junction stack.
