We present an analytical theory for the gate electrostatics and the classical and quantum capacitance of the graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and compare it with the exact self-consistent numerical calculations based on the tight-binding $p$-orbital Hamiltonian within the Hartree approximation. We demonstrate that the anal…
Four separate coprecipitation routes were applied to the preparation of Ni x Mn 1− x (OH) 2 mixed hydroxides with x = 1, 5/6, 2/3, 1/2, 1/3, and 0, beginning with divalent nitrates. The structure and morphology of the samples were studied by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Intentionally…
A large body of spectroscopic data on the cuprate high temperature superconductors (CHTSC) is reviewed in order to determine their order parameter. ASJ, INS, B2g Raman spectra, optical data, NIS "dips", ARPES "dips" and ARPES "kinks" all show the same excitation energy (40 meV for OP95 systems), proportional to the su…
We theoretically study the phase of the reflection amplitude of an electron (massive Dirac fermion) at a lateral potential step in Bernal-stacked bilayer graphene. The phase shows anomalous jump of $π$, as the electron incidence angle (relative to the normal direction to the step) varies to pass $\pm π/4$. The jump is…
A record Co36 cluster is prepared. This mixed-valent compound containing CoII and CoIII centers is formed in the reaction of a dinuclear cobalt pivalate species with the polydentate 2,3-dicarboxypyrazine ligand. In terms of magnetic properties it behaves as a {Co16–Co16} supramolecular dimer in which the S=4 spin grou…
With the growing availability of cheap and fast computing resources, increasingly detailed and sophisticated computational studies of homogeneous organometallic catalysis have become feasible. In addition, databases of calculated descriptors can be used to analyse and interpret the key factors contributing to a wide r…
Disulfide-functionalized hyperbranched poly(amido amine)s (HPAMAMs) were synthesized by Michael addition polymerization of N,N'-cystaminebisacrylamide and 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperazine. The novel HPAMAMs displayed bright fluorescence, and the emissions bands cover nearly the whole visible wavelength range. When polymer s…
In this paper, we report a facile method to produce large-area periodical bowl-like cobalt oxide (Co 3 O 4 ) array films based on a self-assembled monolayer polystyrene sphere template and electrodeposition. After the template is removed, the resulting Co 3 O 4 films consist of periodic, interconnected networks of mon…
BACKGROUND: Fish collagen has been paid increasing attention as an alternative to the mammalian counterpart owing to the abundance of fish skin as a processing by-product. Generally, the low yield of collagen extracted using the typical acid solubilisation process has led to the use of mammalian pepsin as an aid for i…
Large, hydrophilic inorganic ions (mostly polyoxometalate macroions and cationic metal-organic hybrid nanocages) with high solubility in water and/or other polar solvents demonstrate unique solution behaviors. In dilute solutions, they behave significantly different from small simple ions (as described by the Debye-Hü…
This work discusses optical singularities and electrical conductivity behavior in a thin electrooptical cell filled with composites including multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and nematic liquid crystal (LC). The MWCNTs with high aspect ratio $L/d\approx 300\div1000$ and nematic LC 5CB (4-pentyl-4-0-cyanobiphenyl…
A well-established, silver fishnet design has been further miniaturized to function as a negative-index material at the shortest wavelength to date (to our knowledge). By studying the transmittance, reflectance, and corresponding numerical simulations of the sample, we report in this Letter a negative refractive index…
Nanoscale clusters of bulk materials, also known as quantum dots (QDs), exhibit both molecular and bulk properties. Unlike either bulk or molecular materials, QD properties can be modified continuously by changing QD shape and size. However, the chemical and physical properties of molecular and bulk materials often co…
We have used resonant Raman scattering spectroscopy to fully analyze the relative abundances of different (n,m) species in single-walled carbon nanotube samples that are metallically enriched by density gradient ultracentrifugation. Strikingly, the data clearly show that our density gradient ultracentrifugation proces…
We evaluate the stopping and image forces on a charged particle moving parallel to a doped sheet of graphene by using the dielectric-response formalism for graphene's $\ensuremath{\pi}$-electron bands in the random phase approximation (RPA). The forces are presented as functions of the particle speed and the particle…
Near-field energy coupling between two surfaces may arise from frustrated total-internal-reflectance and from atomic dipole-dipole interaction. Such an exchange of energy, if at resonance, greatly enhances the radiation transfer between an emitter and a photovoltaic converter. Computational modeling of selected, but r…
A 2D contact dynamics model is proposed as a microscopic description of a collapsing suspension/soil to capture the essential physical processes underlying the dynamics of generation and collapse of the system. Our physical model is compared with real data obtained from in situ measurements performed with a natural co…
Abstract Increasing interest in competitive, sustainable, and biodegradable alternatives to petroleum‐based plastics has encouraged the developmentof protein‐based plastics. The formation of a homogeneous protein melt during extrusion occurs through: denaturation, dissociation, unraveling, and alignment of polymer cha…
Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) nanoparticles are manufactured worldwide in large quantities for use in a wide range of applications including pigment and cosmetic manufacturing. Although TiO(2) is chemically inert, TiO(2) nanoparticles can cause negative health effects, such as respiratory tract cancer in rats. However, th…
Abstract Electrochemical copolymerization of o ‐dihydroxybenzene ( o DHB) and 3‐methylthiophene (3MeT) was successfully achieved in boron trifluoride diethyl etherate by direct anodic oxidation of the monomer mixtures, although the oxidation potentials of o DHB and 3MeT were quite different. The influence of the appli…
