Anomalous dependencies of the dynamic (pulse) and static tunability [k(U)=C(0)/C(U)] as a function of permittivity (ε) were observed in ferroelectric varactors based on doped paraelectric state (Ba,Sr)TiO3 ceramics. The reduction of the relatively high permittivity value from ε≅810 down to ε≅260 by introducing various…

Metal enhanced/quenched luminescence was explored in the vicinity of Ag x Cu 100- x alloy nanoparticles at different compositions ( x = 100, 67, 50, 30, and 0). These Ag−Cu nanoparticles were synthesized using the polyol process. It was observed that the luminescence of dyes was strongly dependent on the Ag−Cu nanopar…

Thermopower (Sn) of compacted nanocrystalline Ni of average particle size D=38, 32, and 25 nm at low temperatures (5–300 K) is reported here. Sn exhibits striking deviations from bulk thermopower Sbulk behavior revealing evolution of Sn with change in D. As D decreases, there is significant decrease in Sn, gradual dis…

PURPOSE: Previously, we have shown that the amphiphilic oligopeptide SA2 (Ac-Ala-Ala-Val-Val-Leu-Leu-Leu-Trp-Glu-Glu-COOH) spontaneously self-assemble into nano-sized vesicles in aqueous environment. Relative weak individual intermolecular interactions dominate such oligopeptide assemblies. In this study we aimed at i…

We computed thermoelectric properties of nanoporous Ge (np-Ge) with aligned pores along the [001] direction through a combined classical molecular dynamics and first-principles electronic structure approach. A significant reduction in the lattice thermal conductivity of np-Ge leads to a 30-fold increase in the thermoe…
