Quasi-crystals shocked the crystallographic world when they were reported in 1984. We now know that they are not a rare exception, and can be found in many alloy systems. One of the richer systems for quasi-crystals and their approximants is Al-Co-Ni. A large series of pseudo-decagonal (PD) approximants have been foun…

Employing open-ended carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with and without hydrogen termination, we study the length scaling of metal-CNT contact resistance and its correlation with chemical bonding from first principles. Both models similarly show a transition from the fast-growing short-length scaling to the slow-growing long-le…

In this paper, starting with the Maxwell equations and the corresponding nonlinear wave equation, we derive a pulse evolution equation for a metamaterial with cubic (Kerr) nonlinearity. The given model equation goes beyond the commonly employed slowly evolving wave approximation (SEWA). The dispersive properties of th…
