In the last decade, pyrolyzed-carbon-based composites have attracted much attention for their applications in micro-supercapacitors. Although various methods have been investigated to improve the performance of pyrolyzed carbons, such as conductivity, energy storage density and cycling performance, effective methods f…
The main ideas in the theory of thermoelectrics are discussed. We discuss power generation, thermoelectric cooling, transport theory, the Seebeck coefficient, and phonon drag.
The ability to manipulate self-assembly of molecular building blocks is the key to achieving precise "bottom-up" fabrications of desired nanostructures. Herein, we report a rational design, facile synthesis, and self-assembly of a series of molecular Janus particles (MJPs) constructed by chemically linking α-Keggin-ty…
The design and synthesis of plasmonic nanoparticles with Raman-active molecules embedded inside them are of significant interest for sensing and imaging applications. However, direct synthesis of such nanostructures with controllable shape, size, and plasmonic properties remains extremely challenging. Here we report o…
A novel structure of graphene-based hybrid hydrogels was constructed, in which α-Ni(OH) 2 nanoflowers with nanopetals thicknesses of approximately 20 nm were uniformly anchored on a three-dimensional graphene framework. Benefiting from the unique morphological nickel hydroxide nanoflowers and hydrogels, the nickel hyd…
The advent of microporous organic polymers (MOPs) has delivered great potential in gas storage and separation (CCS). However, the presence of only micropores in these polymers often imposes diffusion limitations, which has resulted in the low utilization of MOPs in CCS. Herein, facile chemical activation of the single…
Come on in, the water's fine! Non-photoresponsive nanoparticles can be reversibly assembled using light by placing them in an aqueous solution of a photoacid. Upon exposure to visible light, the photoacid reduces the pH of the solution, which induces attractive interactions between the nanoparticles. In the dark, the…
Bioabsorbable magnesium alloys are becoming prominent as temporary functional implants, as they avoid the risks generated by permanent metallic implants such as persistent inflammation and late restenosis. Nevertheless, the overfast corrosion of Mg alloys under physiological conditions hinders their wider application…
Oxygen octahedral distortions including tilts/rotations, deformations and off-centering in (layered) perovskites play the key role in their numerous functional properties. At the polar-centrosymmetric phase boundary in bi-layered perovskite Ca3-xSrxTi2O7 with x~1, we found the presence of abundant topological Z8 vorte…
By means of first principles calculations, we have systematically investigated how the magnetodynamic properties Gilbert damping, magnetization and exchange stiffness are affected when permalloy (Py) (Fe$_{0.19}$Ni$_{0.81}$) is doped with 4d or 5d transition metal impurities. We find that the trends in the Gilbert dam…
Charged colloidal particles trapped at an air-water interface are well known to form an ordered crystal, stabilized by a long ranged repulsion; the details of this repulsion remain something of a mystery, but all experiments performed to date have confirmed a dipolar-repulsion, at least at dilute concentrations. More…
An experimental study of the in-plane azimuthal behaviour and frequency dependence of the ferromagnetic resonance field and the resonance linewidth as a function of BiFeO$_3$ thickness is carried out in a polycrystalline exchange-biased BiFeO$_3$/Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$ system. The magnetization decrease of the Pt/BiFeO$_3…
Choice of appropriate force field is one of the main concerns of any atomistic simulation that needs to be seriously considered in order to yield reliable results. Since investigations on the mechanical behavior of materials at micro/nanoscale have been becoming much more widespread, it is necessary to determine an ad…
We examine the Casimir free energy and pressure of magnetic metal films, which are free-standing in vacuum, sandwiched between two dielectric plates, and deposited on either nonmagnetic or magnetic metallic plates. All calculations are performed using both the Drude and plasma model approaches to the Lifshitz theory.…
The composition, crystal structure and precipitation crystallography of a newly found precipitate are characterized by Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy. The composition of the plate-like precipitate could be expressed as Mg x Al 2− x Gd ( x = 0.38), and its crystal structure is the same as the fa…
Spin-Hall oscillators are promising sources of spin-wave signals for magnonics applications, and can serve as building blocks for magnonic logic in ultralow power computation devices. Here, we analytically and micromagnetically study magnetization dynamics excited in a Spin-Hall oscillator with oblique magnetization w…
This article provides a rigorous proof of a conjecture by E.C. Bain in 1924 on the optimality of the so-called "Bain strain" based on a criterion of least atomic movement. A general framework that explores several such optimality criteria is introduced and employed to show the existence of optimal transformations betw…
Spin textures in k-space arising from spin-orbit coupling in non-centrosymmetric crystals find numerous applications in spintronics. We present a mechanism that leads to appearance of k-space spin texture due to spontaneous symmetry breaking driven by electronic correlations. Using dynamical mean-field theory we show…
Considerable interest in calcite crystallization has prompted many studies on organic molecule adsorption. However, each study has explored only a few compounds, using different methods and conditions, so it is difficult to combine the results into a general model that describes the fundamental mechanisms. Our goal wa…
In this article we discussed synthesis and catalytic applications of heterogeneous catalysts based on lacunary polyoxometalates (LPOMs) and transition metal substituted polyoxometalates (TMSPOMs), however exclusively the focus has been given to the mono LPOMs and mono-TMSPOMs. As the field of supported LPOMs/TMSPOMs i…
