Traditional T 1 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents such as diethylenetriaminepentacetatic acid (DTPA) chelated gadolinium [Gd(III)] have poor sensitivity, leading to a risk of accumulated toxicity in vivo . To significantly improve the sensitivity of a T 1 MRI contrast agent and to enhance the efficacy o…
The booming nanotechnology industry has raised public concerns about the environmental health and safety impact of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs). High-throughput assays are needed to obtain toxicity data for the rapidly increasing number of ENMs. Here we present a suite of high-throughput methods to study nanotoxici…
The structure, magnetic properties, and lattice dynamics of ordered Fe-Pt alloys with three stoichiometric compositions, Fe$_3$Pt, FePt and FePt$_3$, have been investigated using the density functional theory. Additionally, the existing experimental data have been complemented by new measurements of the Fe projected p…
We study current-induced dynamics of spin textures in thin magnetic nanowires. We derive effective equations of motion describing the dynamics of the domain-wall soft modes associated with topological defects. Because the magnetic domain walls are topological objects, these equations are universal and depend only on a…
The formation of conducting channels of Ti${}_4$O${}_7$ inside TiO${}_2$-based memristors is believed to be the origin for the change in electric resistivity of these devices. While the properties of the bulk materials are reasonably known, the interface between them has not been studied up to now mostly due to their…
The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction (DMI) between spins is induced by spin-orbit coupling in magnetic materials lacking inversion symmetry. DMI is recognized to play a crucial role at the interface between ferromagnetic (FM) and heavy nonmagnetic (NM) metals to create topological textures called magnetic skyrmions w…
In this paper, we investigate CoFeCrAl alloy by means of various experimental techniques and ab-initio calculations to look for half-metallic nature. The alloy is found to exist in the cubic Heusler structure, with presence of B2 ordering. Saturation magnetization (MS) value of about 2 Bohr magneton/f.u. is observed a…
A method is described intended for distributed calibration of a probe microscope scanner consisting in a search for a net of local calibration coefficients (LCCs) in the process of automatic measurement of a standard surface, whereby each point of the movement space of the scanner can be defined by a unique set of sca…
The Goos-Hänchen (GH) shift and the Imbert-Fedorov (IF) shift are optical phenomena which describe the longitudinal and transverse lateral shifts at the reflection interface, respectively. Here, we report the GH and IF shifts in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) - a promising material harboring low energy Weyl fermions, a massle…
Phosphorene, a two-dimensional analog of black phosphorous, has been a subject of immense interest recently, due to its high carrier mobilities and a tunable bandgap. So far, tunability has been predicted to be obtained with very high compressive/tensile in-plane strains, and vertical electric field, which are difficu…
The flash phenomenon occurs when oxide ceramics are heated above a threshold temperature under an applied electric field. It is defined as an abrupt increase in the conductivity of the specimen. The specimen then can be held in this state of high conductivity by switching the power supply from voltage to current contr…
Humans are increasingly exposed to nanoparticles (NPs) in medicine and in industrial settings, where significant concentrations of NPs are common. However, NP interactions with and effects on biomolecules and organisms have only recently been addressed. Within we review the literature regarding proposed modes of actio…
Hyperspectral microscopy is an advanced visualization technique that combines hyperspectral imaging with state‐of‐the‐art optics and computer software to enable the rapid identification of materials at the micro‐ and nanoscales. Achieving this level of resolution has traditionally required time‐consuming and costly el…
Herein, a new strategy has been developed through combining a microwave-assisted technique with hydrothermal treatment to reduce graphene waste and improve production yield of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) prepared by top-down methods. By using fluorinated graphene oxide (FGO) as a raw material, fluorinated GQDs and no…
The epitaxial growth of graphene on catalytically active metallic surfaces via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is known to be one of the most reliable routes toward high-quality large-area graphene. This CVD-grown graphene is generally coupled to its metallic support resulting in a modification of its intrinsic proper…
Low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy is used to image the doped topological insulator Bi$_{2-x}$Fe$_x$Se$_3$. Interstitial Fe defects allow the detection of quasiparticle interference (QPI), and the reconstruction of the empty state band structure. Quantitative comparison between measured data and density fun…
Employing density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, the generalized-stacking-fault energy (GSFE) curves along two crystallographic slips, glide and shuffle, for both pristine graphene and impurity of boron (B) or nitrogen (N) doped graphene were examined. The effects of B and N doping on the GSFE were clarified an…
We present a screened exact-exchange (SXX) method for the efficient and accurate calculation of the optical properties of solids, where the screening is achieved through the zero-wavevector limit of the inverse dielectric function. The SXX approach can be viewed as a simplification of the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE)…
We find a new 5 eV satellite in the Ti 1s photoelectron spectrum of the transition-metal oxide SrTiO$_3$. This satellite appears in addition to the well-studied 13 eV structure that is typically associated with the Ti 2p core line. We give direct experimental evidence that the presence of two satellites is due to the…
We report the coexistence of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases in the single crystal of Mn$_3$ single-molecule magnet. The coexistent state appears within a certain period of time in the progress of either oxidation or reduction during a reversible oxidation-reduction process, when the sample is exposed in th…
