 | The specific project demonstrates the photon-assisted tunneling process across the Coulomb blockade energy gap in mesoscopic tunnel junctions. Photon-assisted tunneling is well established in conventional macroscopic tunnel junctions, and forms the basis of very sensitive millimeter wave detectors for astrophysics applications. In this case, the photon supply the energy needed to tunnel in the presence of the superconducting energy gap, which is a single- particle property. We are trying to ... |

|
 | The work accomplished under this contract largely concerns the properties of superconducting weak links, in the form of either small area oxide-barrier tunnel junctions or of SNS weak links, both of which form Josephson junctions. Two reports concern the response of tunnel junctions to far-infrared radiation, 22 elucidating the response under conditions suitable for mixer and detector applications, and 25 identifying the regimes in which chaotic noise makes the driven ... |

|
 | This paper has been accepted for publication in the February 1974 issue of the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics. It shows the need for further experimental data on induced electric breakdown as a function of wavelength and pulse duration. Consequently a reliable, high power, mode-locked Nd-Yag laser system is being assembled to provide single diffraction limited picosecond pulses, with frequency doubling to green and ultraviolet wave lengths. Details of progress ... |

|
 | It is known from neutron scattering experiments that alpha-CoSO4 is a four-sublattice canted antiferromagnet with no net magnetic moment. In this paper the magnetic properties of this material are analyzed using a model in which an isotropic fictitious spin of 1/2 is assigned to each Co(++) ion. The large canting angle of 25 degrees is interpreted in terms of antisymmetric terms in the Hamiltonian due to anisotropic superexchange and the ... |

|
 | The uniaxial dipolar anisotropy in antiferro magnetic MnO and NiO aligns the two opposing sublattice moments in an easy (111) plane. The two normal modes for small oscillations of the sublattice magnetizations about a preferred direction within this plane are both nondegenerate and linearly polarized. The high frequency mode has been observed at low temperatures (2 K) at 27.5 and 36.6 cm in MnO and NiO, respectively. In agreement with ... |

| EFFECT OF MAGNETIC FIELD ON THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY AND ENERGY GAP OF SUPERCONDUCTING FILMS, |

|
 | The change in the thermal conductivity of superconducting tin and indium films was measured upon application of a magnetic field in the plane of the film. These experiments were undertaken to explore the dependence of the energy gap and the penetration depth upon magnetic field, and to determine the thermodynamic order of the field-induced superconducting transition in films. |
