The removal of single atomic layers from multi-layer graphene using a He plasma is reported. By applying sample biases of -60 and +60 V during He plasma exposure, layer removal is found to be due to electrons instead of He ions or neutrals in the plasma. The rate of layer removal depends on exposure time, sample bias…
Highly dispersed and well-homogenized Au–Pd alloy nanoparticles with average particle sizes of ∼2 nm and tunable Au/Pd ratios were prepared by an adsorption–reduction method on the amine-functionalized SBA-15 support. The chemisorptions of H 2 and CO as well as the IR spectra of CO adsorption show that with increase o…
An extended investigation of the electronic phase diagram of FeSe${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$ up to pressures of $p\ensuremath{\simeq}2.4$ GPa by means of ac and dc magnetization, zero-field muon spin rotation (ZF $\ensuremath{\mu}$SR), and neutron diffraction is presented. ZF $\ensuremath{\mu}$SR indicates that at pressur…
The characteristics of tunnel junctions formed between n- and p-doped graphene are investigated theoretically. The single-particle tunnel current that flows between the two-dimensional electronic states of the graphene (2D–2D tunneling) is evaluated. At a voltage bias such that the Dirac points of the two electrodes a…
Spin-phonon coupling effects, as reflected in phonon frequency shifts between ferromagnetic (FM) and $G$-type antiferromagnetic (AFM) configurations in cubic CaMnO${}_{3}$, SrMnO${}_{3}$, BaMnO${}_{3}$, LaCrO${}_{3}$, LaFeO${}_{3}$, and La${}_{2}$(CrFe)O${}_{6}$, are investigated using density-functional methods. The…
The development of nanoparticle platforms with long in vivo circulation half-life has long been one of the major goals in the field of cancer drug delivery. Long-circulating nanoparticles can more effectively localize to the tumor site through either passive or active targeting mechanisms. The current gold standard fo…
Prompted by the very recent claim that the volleyball-shaped B(80) fullerene [X. Wang, Phys. Rev. B 82, 153409 (2010)] is lower in energy than the B(80) buckyball [N. G. Szwacki, A. Sadrzadeh, and B. I. Yakobson, Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 166804 (2007)] and core-shell structure [J. Zhao, L. Wang, F. Li, and Z. Chen, J. Phy…
In this work we consider the role of aperiodic order-order without periodicity-in the design of different optical devices in one, two and three dimensions. To this end, we will first study devices based on aperiodic multilayered structures. In many instances the recourse to Fibonacci, Thue-Morse or fractal arrangement…
Electrospinning has become a widely implemented technique for the generation of nonwoven mats that are useful in tissue engineering and filter applications. The overriding factor that has contributed to the popularity of this method is the ease with which fibers with submicron diameters can be produced. Fibers on that…
A broadband metamaterial absorber (MA) based on lumped elements is presented, which is composed of the dielectric substrate sandwiched with metal split-coin resonators (SCR) welded with lumped elements and continuous metal film. We simulated, fabricated, and measured the lumped elements MA. Compared with the single SC…
This review describes the state-of-the-art of material derived from the forest sector with respect to its potential for use in the packaging industry. Some innovative approaches are highlighted. The aim is to cover recent developments and key challenges for successful introduction of renewable materials in the packagi…
Direct measurement of the adhesion energy of monolayer graphene as-grown on metal substrates is important to better understand its bonding mechanism and control the mechanical release of the graphene from the substrates, but it has not been reported yet. We report the adhesion energy of large-area monolayer graphene s…
Experiments on ultrathin anisotropic arrays of subwavelength optical antennas display out-of-plane refraction. A powerful three-dimensional (3D) extension of the recently demonstrated generalized laws of refraction and reflection shows that the interface imparts a tangential wavevector to the incident light leading to…
Atomic-layered MoS(2) is synthesized directly on SiO(2) substrates by a scalable chemical vapor deposition method. The large-scale synthesis of an atomic-layered semiconductor directly on a dielectric layer paves the way for many facile device fabrication possibilities, expanding the important family of useful mono- o…
A series of graphite-like amorphous carbon films were deposited by unbalanced magnetron sputtering system with different sputtering currents. The microstructure, morphology, contact angle, and tribological properties of the resultant carbon films were subsequently investigated by means of different characterization te…
The binary Zn2FeV3O11–Mg2FeV3O11 system has been studied by XRD, DTA, IR, and SEM methods. A new continuous substitution solid solution with the formula Zn2−x Mg x FeV3O11 has been obtained by high-temperature synthesis. The DTA investigations were used to choose the heating temperatures as well as for determination o…
Effects of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) fiber and OPEFB grafted with poly (methyl methacrylate) on mechanical properties of poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) and acrylic-impact modified PVC were investigated. The formulations were blended into sheets on a two-roll mill. Test specimens were then hot-pressed. The flexur…
We develop a framework for understanding the difference between strong and fragile behavior in the dynamics of glass-forming liquids from the properties of the potential energy landscape. Our approach is based on a master equation description of the activated jump dynamics among the local minima of the potential energ…
Nanochannel arrays were fabricated by the self-organized multi-electrolyte-step anodic aluminum oxide [AAO] method in this study. The anodization conditions used in the multi-electrolyte-step AAO method included a phosphoric acid solution as the electrolyte and an applied high voltage. There was a change in the phosph…
We study how varying the Péclet number (Pe) affects the steady state sedimentation of colloidal particles that interact through short-ranged attractions. By employing a hybrid molecular dynamics simulation method we demonstrate that the average sedimentation velocity changes from a non-monotonic dependence on packing…
