AbstractIt has been established that the electroviscosity effect of polyzwitterionic (PZI) aqueous solutions is more considerable than and acts in a direction opposite to that of aqueous polyelectrolyte solutions. Temperature and electric field strength influence the electroviscosity of PZI aqueous solutions in parallel, though the reasons for these effects are quite different. The unusual electroviscosity behaviour of PZI solutions is explained by a ‘core-shell’ model for the structural organization of PZI macromolecules, suggesting that cluster formation is due to intensive dipoledipole interactions between monomer units of the same or of different macromolecules.

We report on efficient terahertz emission in the region of 1.5-2 THz from high electric field biased 6H-SiC structures with a natural superlattice at liquid helium temperatures. The shape of the emission spectrum, the linear dependence of its maximum on the bias and the characteristic field strength required to achieve the emission allow the emission to be attributed to steady-state Bloch oscillations of electrons in the SiC natural superlattice.
