The field-free orientation induced by a single-cycle terahertz (THz) laser pulse is studied for two "heavy" molecules, NaI and IBr. Two methods are used and compared in the calculations: One is to solve the exact time-dependent Schrödinger equation (ETDSE) considering the full-rovibrational degrees of freedom, and the other is to invoke the rigid-rotor approximation (RRA). Calculations are performed for the central frequency varying from 0.05 to 1.0 THz and for the peak intensity taken to be 5 × 10(7), 2 × 10(8), and 5 × 10(8) W∕cm(2), respectively. The degree of field-free orientation,

The electrical control of perpendicular magnetization without the need for external magnetic fields holds significant potential for next-generation spintronic devices. In this Letter, we have identified a 3m-symmetry dependent field-free switching phenomenon in (111)-oriented Tm_{3}Fe_{5}O_{12} single-crystal films capped with a platinum (Pt) layer. We demonstrate that this distinctive property arises due to the spontaneous breaking of mirror symmetry in magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) for (111)-oriented magnetic films with a cubic structure, which results in a local out-of-plane MCA effective field with a 3m-symmetry dependence on the azimuth angle when the magnetization lies in the (111) plane.

The control over the movement of electrons during chemical reactions with oriented external electric fields (OEEFs) has been predicted to offer a general approach to catalysis. Recently, we suggested that many problems to realize electric-field catalysis in practice under scalable bulk conditions could possibly be solved on multiwalled carbon nanotubes in electromicrofluidic reactors. Here, we selected monoterpene cyclizations to assess the scope of our system in organic synthesis.

We report a simulation methodology to quantitatively predict the thermodynamic behaviour (phase diagrams) of polymer mixtures, that exhibit phases with broken orientational symmetry. Our system consists of a binary mixture of short oligomers ( = 4) and long rod-like mesogens ( = 8). Using coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) simulations we infer the topology of the temperature-dependent free energy landscape, from the probability distributions of the components for a range of compositions.

Perpendicular magnetization switching by a magnetic-field-free, energy-efficient electrical approach has remained a great challenge. Here, we demonstrate the realization of robust magnetic-field-free perpendicular magnetization switching in the (101)RuO/[Pt/Co/Pt] heterojunction by manipulating the spin polarization direction. We proposed that the relative strength of out-of-plane spin currents with out-of-plane spin polarization and in-plane spin polarization can be effectively manipulated by tuning the nominal thickness of [Pt/Co/Pt] multilayers and the direction of applied electric current with respect to the RuO crystal orientation.
