We analyzed surface-wave propagation that takes place at the boundary between a semi-infinite dielectric and a multilayered metamaterial, the latter with indefinite permittivity and cut normally to the layers. Known hyperbolization of the dispersion curve is discussed within distinct spectral regimes, including the ro…
The ultimate surface exposure provided by graphene monolayer makes it the ideal sensor platform but also exposes its intrinsic properties to any environmental perturbations. In this work, we demonstrate that the charge carrier density of graphene exfoliated on a SiO2/Si substrate can be finely and reversibly tuned bet…
Early science fiction envisioned the future of drug delivery as targeted micrometer-scale submarines and "cyborg" body parts. Here we describe the progression of the field toward technologies that are now beginning to capture aspects of this early vision. Specifically, we focus on the two most prominent types of syste…
A robust directional oil sliding surface is presented by utilizing re-entrant micro-groove arrays inspired from the microgrooves of rice leaf. The overhang micro-groove arrays are shown to provide two primary goals of "omniphobicty" and "anisotropic sliding" with DI water (γlv = 72.1 mN/m) as well as mineral oil (γlv…
Zinc sulfide-coated copper indium sulfur selenide (CuInSexS2-x/ZnS core/shell) nanocrystals were synthesized with size-tunable red to near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence with high quantum yield (40%) in water. These nanocrystals were tested as an imaging agent to track a microparticle-based oral vaccine administered to m…
In situ bottom-gated molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) field effect transistors (FETs) device characterization and in situ ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements were combined to investigate the effect of surface modification layers of C60 and molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) on t…
As current flows through a Pt/Co/Pt trilayer, spin Hall effect induced by charge current in the Pt layer leads to spin accumulation at the Co/Pt interfaces. Our experiment and calculation show an indication of the effect of spin accumulation at the Co/Pt interfaces on anomalous Hall coefficient in the Pt/Co/Pt sandwic…
We present a formula for the calculation of K-edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering on transition metal compounds, based on a local interaction between the valence shell electrons and the $1s$ core hole. Extending a previous result, we include explicit momentum dependence and a basis with multiple core-hole sites.…
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP's) have become increasingly important in heating applications such as hyperthermia treatment of cancer due to their ability to release heat when a remote external alternating magnetic field is applied. It has been shown that the heating capability of such particles varies significantly with…
With nearly complete spin polarization, the ferromagnetic semiconductor europium monoxide could enable next-generation spintronic devices by providing efficient ohmic spin injection into silicon. Spin injection is greatly affected by the quality of the interface between the injector and silicon. Here, we use atomic-re…
It has recently been shown that domain walls in ferromagnets can be moved in the presence of thermal gradients. In this work we study the motion of narrow domain walls in low-dimensional systems when subjected to thermal gradients. The system chosen is a monolayer of Fe on W(1 1 0) which is known to exhibit a large an…
Detailed 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements on superconducting NaFeAs powder samples have been performed in the temperature range 13 K ≤ T < 300 K. The 57Fe spectra recorded in the paramagnetic range (T > TN ≈ 46 K) are discussed supposing that most of the Fe2+ ions are located in distorted (FeAs4) tetrahedra of…
Inspired from butterfly wing, superhydrophobic copper mesh films were fabricated via a facile and environmental friendly method by electroplating Cu nanoparticles on the as-cleaned copper mesh films and followed by a thiol grafting. As-fabricated hierarchical structured copper mesh film showed efficient and rapid oil/…
We present a phenomenological model for the photocurrent transient relaxation observed in ZnO-based metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) planar photodetector devices based on time-resolved surface band bending. Surface band bending decreases during illumination, due to migration of photogenerated holes to the surface. Imme…
A highly efficient and stable QLED using an inorganic WO3 nanoparticle film as a hole injection layer is demonstrated.The resulting WO3 nanoparticle-based QLEDs also exhibit superior performance compared to that of the present PEDOT:PSS-based QLEDs. The results indicate that WO3 nanoparticles are promising solution-pr…
Environmental context The high demand and use of nanomaterials in commercial products have led to increased concerns about their effect on the environment and human health. Because CuO nanoparticles are widely used in several products, it is necessary to understand and predict their behaviour and fate in the environme…
Under a suitable notion of equivalence of integral densities we prove a $Γ$-closure theorem for integral functionals: The limit of a sequence of $Γ$-convergent families of such functionals is again a $Γ$-convergent family. Its $Γ$-limit is the limit of the $Γ$-limits of the original problems. This result not only prov…
A fabrication method for positioning and embedding a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) across the diameter of a solid state nanopore is presented. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is used to grow SWNTs over arrays of focused ion beam (FIB) milled pores in a thin silicon nitride membrane. This typically yields at lea…
We investigate the atomic and electronic structure of a single layer of pentacene on the Au(111) surface using density functional theory. To find the candidate structures we strain match the pentacene crystal geometry with the Au(111) surface, in this way we find pentacene overlayer structures with a low strain. We sh…
The behaviors of hydrogen (H) in MAX phase material Ti3SiC2 have been investigated using first-principles method. We show that a single H atom prefers to stay 1.01 Å down of the Si vacancy with solution energy of about -4.07 eV, lowerthan that in bulk Ti3SiC2. Multi H atoms exhibit a repulsive interaction at the Si va…
