- The structural and magnetic properties of MnSb layers grown on two differently oriented GaAs substrates are reported. The MnSb compounds grow nonhomogenously both on GaAs (111) B and on GaAs (100) substrates. In x-ray diffraction studies the formation of two epitaxial domains is observed depending on the crystallographic orientation of the substrate. The observed diffusion of Ga atoms from the substrate to the layers results in the formation of an additional Mn-rich cubic phase of GaMnSb. In the case of the (100) oriented substrate, the diffusion of Mn into the substrate was additionally found. Traces of other phases were also noticed. The complex morphology of the layers is found to influence their magnetic properties. Magnetic force microscopy images revealed an inhomogenous distribution of the magnetic force gradient on the surface and the formation of magnetic domains in the samples. X-ray absorption studies of the chemical bonding and local atomic structure around Mn atoms confirmed high structural and chemical disorder in the samples. The chemical bonding of the dominating fraction of Mn atoms is found, however, similar to that in the reference MnSb powder. The x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements reveal an enhanced orbital moment and a reduced spin moment, which is most likely caused by the presence of different phases and a Mn-rich surface in the investigated samples.

Towards Operator-managed P2P Content Delivery with Application Layer Traffic Optimization
- 2010

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- P2P technology provides a flexible and very popular way of content delivery for various services, including networked media applications. However, P2P-based content delivery generates large amount of backbone traffic. Recently, several approaches have been proposed for guiding P2P services based on operator preferences, in order to reduce the amount of costly backbone traffic generated by P2P applications. Application Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) is a one key approach for such managed P2P applications. In short, ALTO is a dedicated service, operated by a network operator or ISP, which can provide useful network layer information to application layer clients for improved peer selection and corresponding content delivery. This paper provides an overview of standardisation and research activities for improving P2P content delivery with ALTO which are carried out within the EU FP7 project NAPA-WINE. In particular, we give an overview on standardisation efforts, present simulation results, explain our prototypical implementation of the ALTO concept, and highlight ongoing large-scale operational trials we are currently conducting within the network of Polish Telecom and among NAPA-WINE partners
