Abstract The optimization of chemical processes that take place in a finite time constitutes an important application of finite‐time thermodynamics. In this study we investigate two generic optimal control problems for nucleation‐and‐growth based syntheses: the maximization of the amount of a crystalline solid phase g…

When planar graphene sheets are stacked on top of each other, the electronic structure of the system varies with the position of the subsequent sublattice atoms. Here, we employ scanning photocurrent microscopy to study the disparity in the behavior of charge carriers for two different stacking configurations. It has…

Al-doped ZnO (AZO) films were sputter deposited on glass substrates heated at 200 °C under incident angles of sputtered particles at 0° (incidence normal to substrate), 20°, 40°, 60°, and 80°. In the case of normal incidence, x-ray diffraction pole figures show a strong [001] preferred orientation normal to the film s…

We study the origin of interface states in carbon nanotube intramolecular junctions between achiral tubes. By applying the Born-von Karman boundary condition to an interface between armchair- and zigzag-terminated graphene layers, we are able to explain their number and energies. We show that these interface states, c…

NiCuZn ferrites are widely employed for many electronic applications, but can be replaced by MgCuZn ferrites owing to their superior properties like low magnetostriction, environmental stability, low stress sensitivity and low cost. In view of this, a series of non-stoichiometric MgCuZn ferrites (Mg0.5−xCuxZn0.5Fe1.9O…

The nanostructure of SBA-15 ordered mesoporous silica is modeled by considering a full crystallite about 500 nm in size. The lattice sites of a 2D hexagonal lattice are occupied by circular mesopores that exhibit a size distribution and a rough pore wall. In addition, the walls of the ordered pores contain randomly di…

A hybrid p–n junction was fabricated by using chemically synthesized cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles and spun films of poly (9-vinayl carbazole) (PVK). The junction appeared to be nearly ideal from the current–voltage measurements. The analysis of capacitance–voltage characteristics produced a value of nearly 1 V…

Mechanical alloying plus hot-pressing was employed to prepare nanocrystalline (Mg 1− x Zn x ) 3 Sb 2 compounds that were characterized by microstructural examinations and dc electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity measurements. The results indicated that the grain size of (Mg 1− x Zn x ) 3…

We report the synthesis and the characterizations of a novel dyad composed of a zinc porphyrin (ZnP) linked to a gold porphyrin (AuP) through an ethynyl spacer. The UV/Vis absorption spectrum and the electrochemical properties clearly reveal that this dyad exhibits a strong electronic coupling in the ground state as e…

The luminescence properties of Ce 3+ activated Ba 2 Ca(BO 3 ) 2 with K + as a charge compensator have been investigated and compared with those with Na + -compensating. Energy transfer of Ce 3+ in Ba 2+ (i.e. Ce(1) 3+ ) and Ca 2+ (i.e. Ce(2) 3+ ) sites has been proven by VUV–UV excitation and emission spectra, lumines…

The use of transfer-matrix analyses for characterizing planar optical superlensing systems is studied here, and the simple model of the planar superlens as an isolated imaging element is shown to be defective in certain situations. These defects arise due to neglected interactions between the superlens and the spatial…

The paper addresses the issue of modelling offset minor hysteresis loops within the framework of the Jiles–Atherton model. Two of the model parameters are expressed in terms of scaling power laws with respect to the magnetization level. The approach is consistent with earlier theoretical considerations on the effectiv…
