We find localized electron and hole states in a ring-shaped potential kink in biased bilayer graphene. Within the continuum description, we show that for sharp potential steps the Dirac equation describing carrier states close to the K (or K′) point of the first Brillouin zone can be solved analytically for a circular…

In the present work we show that synthesis of gold nanoparticles (NPs) could be performed by microwave-assisted technique without the need of adding any reducing agent. Only water and the gold salt precursor are necessary to generate the NPs under the influence of microwaves. The produced NPs have been characterized b…

In this letter, it is proposed that the usage of Al(2)O(3) capping layer can tremendously improve the phase stability of SnO thin films, which allows the accurate determination of the optical constants of the SnO films without the perturbation arising from impurity phases. For the SnO films, the refraction index and e…

The interaction of rose Bengal (RB) and fluorescein (FL) with poly[diallyldimethylammonium] chloride (PDDA) was studied in layer-by-layer self-assembled thin films and in solution. The spectroscopic behavior is explained in terms of dye-dye, dye-polyelectrolyte, and in solution, dye-solvent interactions. A correlation…

Using first-principles calculations, we investigate the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of fully fluorinated and semifluorinated ZnO sheets. We find the fully fluorinated ZnO sheet prefers a twist-chair conformation, which is a nonmagnetic semiconductor. While for the semifluorinated sheet, the F-cente…

Abstract Isothermal crystallization and morphology of biodegradable PBST copolyesters with high content of BT units were investigated. The crystallization kinetic analysis showed that the Avrami exponent n ranged from 3.2 to 4.9, indicating a three‐dimensional growth initiated by homogeneous nucleation mechanism at lo…

The demagnetization processes in epitaxially grown ${\text{SmCo}}_{5}/\text{Fe}/{\text{SmCo}}_{5}$ trilayers have been analyzed in the framework of a one-dimensional micromagnetic model, exploiting the well-defined orientation of the easy magnetization axis present in both ${\text{SmCo}}_{5}$ layers. The applied magne…

We report on the observation of second-order infrared (IR) plasmon resonances in lithographically prepared gold nanorods investigated by means of far-field microscopic IR spectroscopy. In addition to the fundamental antennalike mode, even and odd higher order resonances are observed under normal incidence of light. Th…

For the first time, grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) analysis is used to characterize the morphology of TiO(2) thin films grown by glancing angle physical vapor deposition (GLAD). According to cross-section scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, the films consist of near isotilted TiO(2) col…

We report for the first time that an ultra-thin hybrid metamaterial slab can reflect an incident plane wave in -1st diffraction order, giving rise to anomalous reflection in a "negative" way. The functionality is derived from the hybridized surface resonant states of the slab. The retro-directive reflection is demonst…

We report the observation of multiferroic nanoregions in cupric oxide, CuO, by means of resonant soft x-ray magnetic scattering. There exists an anomalous memory effect for the direction of the electric polarization in the commensurate-incommensurate magnetic transition that coincides with the ferroelectric transition…
