We present a theoretical study of the optical conductivity of graphene with magnetic and nonmagnetic adatoms. First, by introducing an alternating potential in a pure graphene, we demonstrate a gap formation in the density of states and the corresponding optical conductivity. We highlight the distinction between such…

ABSTRACT We investigated the interfacial properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) carrying UV‐crosslinkable pendant quaternized stilbazole (styrylpyridinium), PVA‐SbQ. The extent and dynamics of PVA‐SbQ cyclodimerization reactions and crosslinking induced by UV irradiation were monitored in situ and in real time by quartz cr…

Using self-consistent quantum transport simulations, we investigate the performance variability of monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) field-effect transistors (FETs) with various contact properties. Varying the Schottky barrier in MoS2 FETs affects the output characteristics more significantly than the transfer cha…

The onset of an edge crack in compressive layers of a ceramic laminate undergoing residual stresses is predicted using the stress–energy coupled criterion based on the data of the tensile strength and the toughness of the material under consideration. The proposed criterion does not contain any adjustable parameter, w…

Tungsten (W) and beryllium (Be) have been chosen as plasma-facing materials for the ITER reactor and the main fuel component will be deuterium (D). Due to plasma–wall interactions, these materials will immediately mix via erosion, transport and re-deposition. We present the first atomistic study on the effect of D co-…

We investigate the valley-dependent transport of a graphene system consisting of a uniaxially stretched graphene sheet connected by two unstrained parts, with the interfaces between the strained and unstrained regions along the zigzag direction. A detailed study on the Fabry–Pérot states in the strained region reveals…

A synthetic procedure to prepare novel materials (surface-mediated fillings) based on robust hierarchical monoliths is reported. The methodology includes the deposition of a (micro- or mesoporous) silica thin film on the support followed by growth of a porous monolithic SiO2 structure. It has been demonstrated that th…

Identifying solvent- and catalyst-free conditions for polymerizations of engineering thermoplastics is of increasing interest due to new polymer processing technologies such as 3-D printing. We report the selective formation of linear poly(aryl ether sulfone)s (PESs) from the polycondensation of trimethylsilyl-protect…

We report the temperature-dependent Raman spectra for high-density single-walled carbon nanotube thin films. We show that the position of the main Raman mode (G) softens as the temperature increases and is nonlinear in the range of 70–270 K. This effect is explained by optical phonon decay. In the linear regime, the f…

A simple and label-free fluorescent assay for the sensitive determination of biological thiols was developed using Au@Ag nanoclusters. The sensing approach was based on the strong affinity of thiols to silver on the surface of the nanoclusters. In the presence of thiol-containing amino acids, the fluorescence of the A…
