We formulate a theory on the dynamics of conduction electrons in the presence of moving magnetic textures in ferromagnetic materials. We show that the variation of local magnetization in both space and time gives rise to topological fields, which induce electromotive forces on the electrons. Universal results are obta…
An analytical form of the Raman shift dependence on size of nanocrystals is presented. Based on the hard confinement model, it works in those cases where the average phonon curve shows a quadratic dependence on the phonon quasi-momentum in the range of interest.
We report the ultrafast dynamics of the $47.4\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{THz}$ coherent phonons of graphite interacting with a photoinduced nonequilibrium electron-hole plasma. Unlike conventional materials, upon photoexcitation the phonon frequency of graphite upshifts, and within a few picoseconds relaxes to…
Grooves were etched in a conductive layer of a conductive, transparent glass, and a nanoporous TiO2 film was deposited on both the conductive and nonconductive area. The width of the grooves was 100 $μ$m and 150 $μ$m. A transparent TiO2 film was dye-sensitized, covered with an electrolyte, and sandwiched with a cover…
We present a Full Potential Multiple Scattering (FP-MS) scheme for the interpretation of several X-ray spectroscopies that is a straightforward generalization of the more conventional Muffin-Tin (MT) version. Like this latter, it preserves the intuitive description of the physical process under consideration and overc…
NO molecules adsorbed on a Pt(111) surface from dipping in an acidic nitrite solution are studied by near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) techniques. LEED patterns and STM…
We present a detailed study of short-time dynamic properties in concentrated suspensions of charge-stabilized and of neutral colloidal spheres. The particles in many of these systems are subject to significant many-body hydrodynamic interactions. A recently developed accelerated Stokesian dynamics (ASD) simulation met…
The infrared photoresponse in the electrical conductivity of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is dramatically enhanced by embedding SWNTs in an electrically and thermally insulating polymer matrix. The conductivity change in a 5 wt % SWNT-polycarbonate nanocomposite is significant (4.26%) and sharp upon infrared…
Recently, we showed that the plasmon resonance coupling between two interacting metal nanoparticles decays with the interparticle separation (in units of particle size) with the same universal trend independent of particle size or shape, metal type, or medium. This universal scaling behavior has been shown to apply to…
Two polyoxometalate-templated organic-inorganic hybrid porous frameworks, namely, [Cu2(H2O)2(bpp)2Cl][PM12O40].approximately 20H2O (for 1, M = W; for 2, M = Mo; bpp = 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane), were self-assembly obtained and structurally determined by elemental analyses, inductively coupled plasma analyses, infrared…
Silver impregnated on polymer-titania nanocomposite films exhibit excellent antibacterial properties with the added advantage of repeated use. The polyethylene glycol-polyurethane-titania designated as PEG-PU-TiO 2 polymer nanocomposite films were synthesized by simple solution casting technique. Silver has been incor…
Control over the preferred helical sense of a poly(n-hexyl isocyanate) (PHIC) by using a single light-driven molecular motor, covalently attached at the polymer's terminus, has been accomplished in solution via a combination of photochemical and thermal isomerizations. Here, we report that after redesigning the photoc…
Unlike the air-water interface, the organic-aqueous (liquid-liquid) interface has not been exploited sufficiently for materials synthesis. In this Account, we demonstrate how ultrathin nanocrystalline films of metals such as gold and silver as well as of inorganic materials such as semiconducting metal chalcogenides (…
A tight-binding model of hydrogen-terminated armchair-edge graphene nanostrips is presented, which includes up to third-nearest-neighbor carbon-carbon interactions and edge distortion. The model reproduces the band gaps found in first-principles local-density-functional calculations well. The model also leads to energ…
Phonon and electron transport in ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Te}}_{3}$ has been investigated using a multiscale approach, combining the first-principles calculations, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and Boltzmann transport equations (BTEs). Good agreements are found with the available experimental results. The MD…
We report on angle-resolved photoemission studies of the electronic pi states of high-quality epitaxial graphene layers on a Ni(111) surface. In this system the electron binding energy of the pi states shows a strong dependence on the magnetization reversal of the Ni film. The observed extraordinarily large energy shi…
For a solid solution series the common description of a crystal as a homogeneous solid formed by a repeating, three-dimensional pattern of a unit cell is in principle no longer applicable, taking the statistical chemical distribution of the substituting ions into account. The Cu(Mo x W1−x )O4 solid solution series rep…
A sugar-containing polymer was grown on gold surface by surface-initiated atom-transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) of methacrylate monomer, 3-O-methacryloyl-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-alpha-D-glucofuranoside (MAIpGIc), using 1,4,8,11-tetraaza-1,4,8,11-tetramethylcyclotetradecane (Me(4)Cyclam) as ligand, 2-bromo…
The crystallization behaviors and morphology of poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) in the presence of liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) Vectra RD501 have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarized optical microscopy (POM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD).…
Abstract Mixed ionic and electronic conducting (MIEC) films can be applied in solid state electrochemical devices such as oxygen separation membranes for producing pure oxygen, gas sensors or as cathode in solid oxide fuel cells. The current interest in layered perovskite‐related phases, like Sr 4 Fe 6 O 13 (SFO), ari…
