The valley valve effect was predicted in a straight zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGR) p/n junction. In this work, we address a possible valley selection rule in a Y-shaped ZGR junction. By modeling the system as a three-terminal device and calculating the conductance spectrum, we found that the valley valve effect coul…

Abstract We succeeded in synthesizing a novel cuprate compound, [Cu2(CO3)2(bpp)2.5]·5.5H2O (1) (bpp: 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane). Its structural determination reveals that 1 has a ladder-like configuration formed by the alternate stacking of two Cu2+ ions and a CO32− ion, each of which is linked by a bpp molecule. The…

Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) is widely exploited as an epoxy resin in adhesives and coatings. In this paper, it is used as an oligomer matrix for silica-filled nanocomposites. Rheological measurements show that the pure matrix obeys power-law relaxation dynamics in the vicinity of the dynamic glass transiti…

The preparation of chiral metal complexes in NaY zeolite is reported. The guests, chiral metal complexes, were entrapped in the supercages of NaY zeolite (host) by a two-step process in the liquid phase: (i) inclusion of the selected transition metal (rhodium(III) and manganese(II)) by ion-exchange in the porous struc…

The plasmon characteristics of two graphene nanostructures are studied using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The absorption spectrum has two main bands, which result from π and σ + π plasmon resonances. At low energies, the Fourier transform of the induced charge density maps exhibits anomalous behav…

We present a flexible model for a generic straight transport barrier in graphene in the specular limit. The specular limit applies for scattering of carriers sufficiently close to the Fermi level in three quarters of the transport barriers. Using the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, we obtain the wave function, from which…

Abstract The variation of bonding ratio in the press bonding of TC4 alloy at temperatures from 850 to 900 °C, pressures from 10 to 30 MPa, and time from 5 to 15 min was investigated. The bonding ratio increases with the increase of temperature, time and pressure. The maximum bonding ratio, i.e. 98 %, can be obtained a…
