In order to investigate the orientational ordering of molecular dipoles and the associated electronic properties, we studied the adsorption of chlorogallium phthalocyanine molecules (GaClPc, Pc=C_32N_8H_16) on Cu(111) using the X-ray standing wave technique, photoelectron spectroscopy, and quantum chemical calculation…
Atomic force microscopy and grazing incidence x-ray diffraction measurements have revealed the presence of ripples, aligned along the [11¯0] direction on the surface of (Ga,Mn)As layers grown on GaAs(001) substrates and buffer layers, with periodicity of about 50 nm in all samples that have been studied. These samples…
We investigate the index sensing characteristics of plasmonic arrays based on square lattice slablike gold nanorings (NRs) with different ring widths. The gold NR arrays exhibit two extinction peaks in the visible and near-infrared corresponding to antibonding and bonding modes. Redshift and blueshift in antibonding a…
Graphene has attracted much attention as one of promising candidates of future high-speed transistor materials because of its high carrier mobility of more than 10,000 cm2 V-1 s-1. Up to this point, we have focused on the contact properties as performance killers, as a very small density of states in graphene might su…
The distributions of magnetization orientation for both Landau and diamond domain structures in nano-rectangles have been investigated by micromagnetic simulation with various exchange coefficient and anisotropy constant. Both symmetric and asymmetric magnetization splitting are found in diamond domain structure, as w…
Reversible control of the photoluminescence of ZnO occurring in the visible range, has been achieved by application of a few volts (<5 V) to a device consisting of nanostructured ZnO film sandwiched between indium tin oxide electrode and polyethylene oxide-lithium perchlorate, a solid polymer electrolyte. The p…
We study the thermophysical properties of dense helium plasmas by using quantum molecular dynamics and orbital-free molecular dynamics simulations, where densities are considered from 400 to 800 g/cm$^{3}$ and temperatures up to 800 eV. Results are presented for the equation of state. From the Kubo-Greenwood formula,…
The critical spin fluctuations in doped compounds Mn$_{1-y}$Fe$_y$Si have been studied by means of ac-susceptibility measurements, polarized neutron small angle scattering and spin echo spectroscopy. It is shown that these compounds undergo the transition from the paramagnetic to helimagnetic phase through continuous,…
Regular arrays of InP nano pillars have been fabricated by low energy Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) Ar+ ion irradiation on InP(111) surface. Several scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images have been utilized to invetsigate the width, height, and orientation of these nano pillars on InP(111) surfaces. The averag…
With the explosion of wireless networks and automotive radar systems, there is an acute need for new materials and technologies that would not only minimize the size of these devices, but also enhance their performance. The technique of transformation optics---an innovative approach to produce artificial metamaterials…
A rare-earth rich aluminoborosilicate glass of composition (given in wt.%): 50.68 SiO2 - 4.25 Al2O3 - 8.50 B2O3 - 12.19 M2O - 4.84 M'O - 3.19 ZrO2 - 16.35 Nd2O3 (where M and M' are respectively an alkali and alkaline earth cation) is currently under study as potential nuclear waste form. In this work, we were interest…
Nuclear spent fuel reprocessing generates high level radioactive waste with high Mo concentration that are currently immobilized in borosilicate glass matrices containing both alkali and alkaline-earth elements [1]. Because of its high field strength, Mo6+ ion has a limited solubility in silicate and borosilicate glas…
An aluminoborosilicate glass, containing high amount of rare earth (RE) accordingly to the following composition 50.68 SiO2 - 4.25 Al2O3 - 8.50 B2O3 - 12.19 Na2O - 4.84 CaO - 3.19 ZrO2 - 16.35 RE2O3 (wt.%), is currently under study for the immobilization of nuclear waste solutions. In this work, we wanted to investiga…
We report the synthesis of alpha-Fe1.4Ga0.6O3 compound and present its structural phase stability and interesting magnetic, dielectric and photo-absorption properties. In our work Ga doped alpha-Fe2O3 samples are well stabilized in alpha phase (rhombohedral crystal structure with space group R3C). Properties of the pr…
This work concerns glasses belonging to SiO2-Al2O3-CaO-ZrO2-TiO2-Nd2O3 system that lead to zirconolite crystallization in their bulk after nucleation + crystal growth thermal treatments and that could find application as nuclear waste form. The understanding of crystallization processes in glasses implied to investiga…
The failure of semilocal density functional theory for medium- and long-range noncovalent molecular interactions is a long-standing challenge for computational chemistry. Here, we assess the performance of the random phase approximation (RPA), a parameter-free fifth-rung functional, for reaction energies governed by c…
Spinel zinc manganese oxide (ZnMn2O4) nanorods were successfully prepared using the previously synthesized α-MnO2 nanorods by a hydrothermal method as template. The nanorods were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis absorption, X-ray photoelectron s…
The addition of nanoparticles that selectively hydrogen bond with one of the segments of a block copolymer is shown to induce order in otherwise disordered systems. This enables the fabrication of well-ordered hybrid materials with spherical, cylindrical, or lamellar domains at particle loadings of more than 40%, as e…
Efforts to create reproducible surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based chemical and biological sensors has been hindered by difficulties in fabricating large-area SERS-active substrates with a uniform, reproducible SERS response that still provides sufficient enhancement for easy detection. Here we report on pe…
We report the synthesis of CdSe/CdS rod in rod core/shell heterostructures. These rods, synthesized using a seeded-growth approach, show narrow distributions of rod diameters and lengths and exhibit high emission quantum efficiencies and highly polarized emission. The degree of polarization is controlled by the inner…
