Dislocation junctions and jogs in a free-standing FCC thin film have been studied using three-dimensional dislocation dynamics simulations. Due to the unconstrained motion of surface nodes and dislocation annihilation at the free surface, junctions and jogs are unstable except for some uncommon conditions. If the film…

Sulfur (S) is introduced as an additive in the growth atmosphere of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the range of 940-1020°C. CNT products with distorted sidewalls can be obtained by S-assisted growth. Moreover, many fascinating CNT structures can also be found in samples grown with S addition, such as bamboo-like CNTs, twi…

Schwarzes Gold – aber kein Öl: Ein nanoporöser schwarzer Goldfilm bildet sich durch Anodisierung von Gold in einer Oxalatlösung. Der schwammartige Film ist porös mit einer gleichförmigen Lochgröße von ca. 20 nm (siehe Bild). Der Bildungsmechanismus ist noch unklar, wahrscheinlich tragen aber Kohlenstoff-Formen, die du…

Silence, please! Single-wall carbon nanotubes (NTs) are produced as a mixture of metals and semiconductors. Metallic NTs can be selectively derivatized by diazonium, but the selectivity does not allow preservation of semiconductor NTs; therefore, diazonium was replaced by diazoesters. The diazoester-coupled NTs could…

The photoluminescence (PL) of silica nano-structures has been found to be affected remarkably by organic solvents and hydrogen peroxide. The absorption and PL emission as well as excitation spectra show a variation in the position of the spectral maxima, with the change in the solvent polarity. The most interesting ef…

We extended the analysis of a variational theory for nematoacoustics recently proposed by Virga [Phys. Rev. E 80, 031705 (2009)] by allowing the nematic director to vibrate about an average orientation at the frequency of a propagating wave, a periodic motion that we call the director libration. The acoustic susceptib…

The size effect of Pd clusters on hydrogen adsorption was investigated by density functional theory calculations. From molecular dynamics simulations, we found that the hydrogen molecules were dissociatively adsorbed on the Pd clusters; the most stable adsorption site was the hollow site. We also found that the adsorp…
