Abstract Based on previous theoretical and experimental results on the electrochemical etching of silicon in HF‐based aqueous electrolytes, it is shown for the first time that silicon microstructures of various shapes and silicon microsystems of high complexity can be effectively fabricated in any research lab with su…
Relaxor ferroelectrics are materials exhibiting dielectric dispersions in their maximum permittivity temperature without macroscopic phase transition into a ferroelectric state. Their exceptional properties are exploited in a variety of dielectric and piezoelectric applications. As it is generally believed that polar…
We report measurements of long ranged supercurrents through ferromagnetic and fully spin-polarized CrO2 deposited on TiO2 substrates. In earlier work, we found supercurrents in films grown on sapphire but not on TiO2. Here, we employed a special contact arrangement, consisting of a Ni/Cu sandwich between the film and…
The thermomagnetic and magnetocaloric properties of the MnNiGe1−xAlx system have been investigated by magnetization and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. The presence of first-order magnetostructural transitions (MSTs) from hexagonal ferromagnetic to orthorhombic antiferromagnetic phases has been d…
Glass transition behavior of thin poly(bisphenol A carbonate) (PBAC) films capped between two aluminum (Al) layers is investigated by means of dielectric expansion dilatometry and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy accompanied by contact angle measurements. The thermal glass transition temperature is more or less inde…
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been extensively used in biological applications because of their biocompatibility, size, and ease of characterization, as well as an extensive knowledge of their surface chemistry. These features make AuNPs readily exploitable for biomedical applications, including drug delivery and no…
Extended solids are frequently simulated as finite systems with periodic boundary conditions, which due to the long-range nature of the Coulomb interaction may lead to slowly decaying finite- size errors. In the case of Quantum-Monte-Carlo simulations, which are based on real space, both real-space and momentum-space…
The spin dependent charge transport in zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) has been investigated by the nonequilibrium Green’s function method combined with the density functional theory at the local spin density approximation. The current versus voltage curve shows distinguished behaviors for symmetric and asymmetric…
The effects of isovalent Ru substitution at the Fe sites of BaFe${}_{2\ensuremath{-}x}$Ru${}_{x}$As${}_{2}$ are investigated by measuring resistivity ($\ensuremath{\rho}$) and Hall coefficient (${R}_{H}$) on high-quality single crystals in a wide range of doping (0 $\ensuremath{\le}$ $x$ $\ensuremath{\le}$ 1.4). Ru su…
Effect of electric field on the band structures of graphene/boron nitride (BN) and BN/BN bilayers is investigated within the framework of density functional theory. The calculated bandgap of the graphene/BN bilayer increases, although by small amount, with applied electric field. In the case of BN/BN bilayer, the band…
Using LaAlO3-SrTiO3 bilayers, we have fabricated field-effect devices that utilize the two-dimensional electron liquid generated at the bilayers’ n-type interfaces as drain-source channels and the LaAlO3 layers as gate dielectrics. With gate voltages well below 1 V, the devices are characterized by voltage gain and cu…
Abstract This article presents the synthesis and physicochemical behavior of dual‐responsive plasmonic nanoparticles with reversible optical properties based on protein‐coated gold nanoparticles grafted with thermosensitive polymer brushes by means of surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐ATRP) th…
Nanometer wide silicon filaments embedded in an amorphous silicon oxide matrix are grown at low temperatures over a large area. The optical and electrical properties of these mixed-phase nanomaterials can be tuned independently, allowing for advanced light management in high efficiency thin-film silicon solar cells an…
Grain boundaries, the characteristic topological defects of chemical vapor deposition grown graphene samples, are expected to substantially alter the electronic properties of the unperturbed graphene lattice. However, there is very little experimental insight into the underlying mechanisms. Here, we systematically map…
Using a magnetic resonance force microscope (MRFM), the power emitted by a spin transfer nano-oscillator consisting of a normally magnetized Py$|$Cu$|$Py circular nanopillar is measured both in the autonomous and forced regimes. From the power behavior in the subcritical region of the autonomous dynamics, one obtains…
The Seebeck coefficients, electrical resistivities, total thermal conductivities, and magnetization are reported for temperatures between 5 and 350 K for n-type Bi0.88Sb0.12 nano-composite alloys made by Ho-doping at the 0, 1 and 3% atomic levels. The alloys were prepared using a dc hot-pressing method, and are shown…
We report on NMR studies of the quasi one--dimensional (1D) antiferromagnetic $S=1/2$ chain cuprate LiCuVO$_4$ in magnetic fields $H$ up to $μ_0H$ = 30 T ($\approx 70$% of the saturation field $H_{\rm sat}$). NMR spectra in fields higher than $H_{\rm c2}$ ($μ_0H_{\rm c2} \approx 7.5$ T) and temperatures $T
Recent Monte Carlo simulations on the Kern and Frenkel model of a Janus fluid have revealed that in the vapour phase there is the formation of preferred clusters made up of a well-defined number of particles: the micelles and the vesicles. A cluster theory is developed to approximate the exact clustering properties st…
We demonstrate that the electronic structure of mesoporous silicon is affected by adsorption of nitro-based explosive molecules in a compound-selective manner. This selective response is demonstrated by probing the adsorption of two nitro-based molecular explosives (trinitrotoluene and cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine) a…
Motion of cantilever near sample surfaces exhibits additional friction even before two bodies come into mechanical contact. Called non-contact friction (NCF), this friction is of great practical importance to the ultrasensitive force detection measurements. Observed large NCF of a micron-scale cantilever found anomalo…
