Surface-assisted polymerization of molecular monomers into extended chains can be used as the seed of graphene nanoribbon (GNR) formation, resulting from a subsequent cyclo-dehydrogenation process. By means of valence-band photoemission and ab initio density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, we investigate the evo…
Separating the influence of hyperfine from spin-orbit interactions in spin-dependent carrier recombination and dissociation processes necessitates magnetic resonance spectroscopy over a wide range of frequencies. We have designed compact and versatile coplanar waveguide resonators for continuous-wave electrically dete…
We calculate the dynamic polarizability under the random phase approximation for the dice lattice. This two-dimensional system gives rise to massless Dirac fermions with pseudospin-1 in the low-energy quantum excitation spectrum, providing a Dirac-cone plus flat-band dispersion. Due to the presence of the flat band, t…
In the present work, we study morphologies arising due to competing substrate interaction, electric field, and confinement effects on a symmetric diblock copolymer. We employ a coarse-grained nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard phenomenological model taking into account the appropriate contributions of substrate interaction and el…
Recent experimental results suggest that metallic liquids universally exhibit a high-temperature dynamical crossover, which is correlated with the glass transition temperature (). We demonstrate, using molecular dynamics results for , that this temperature, , is linked with cooperative atomic rearrangements that produ…
We investigate the quasi-static magnetic behavior of ensembles of ferromagnetic nanoparticles consisting of MnP nanoclusters embedded in GaP(001) epilayers grown at 600, 650, and 700 °C. We use a phenomenological model, in which surface effects are included, to reproduce the experimental hysteresis curves measured as…
The Weyl semimetal NbP was found to exhibit topological Fermi arcs and exotic magnetotransport properties. Here, we report on magnetic quantum-oscillation measurements on NbP and construct the three-dimensional Fermi surface with the help of band-structure calculations. We reveal a pair of spin-orbit-split electron po…
The simplest way to obtain thin carbon layers is to draw or rub with a graphite rod. During rubbing, forces of friction acting in graphite/substrate tribological system cause drastic changes in the structure of the interface stratum developing thereby stable self-organized and ordered thin structure. We present a pion…
Quantum critical behavior has been associated with some of the most exotic emergent states of matter including high-temperature superconductivity. Much of the research into quantum critical point (QCP) physics has been hampered by the lack of model systems simple enough to be analyzed by theory. Here, we show that the…
We performed small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) measurements on the helimagnetic spinel compound ZnCr2Se4. The ground state of this material is a multi-domain spin-spiral phase, which undergoes domain selection in a magnetic field and reportedly exhibits a transition to a proposed spin-nematic phase at higher field…
We study the spin-orbit torque (SOT) effective fields in Cr/CoFeAl/MgO and Ru/CoFeAl/MgO magnetic heterostructures using the adiabatic harmonic Hall measurement. High-quality perpendicular-magnetic-anisotropy CoFeAl layers were grown on Cr and Ru layers. The magnitudes of the SOT effective fields were found to signifi…
Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman scattering are performed on atomic layers of hexagonal molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2), a prototypical transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) semiconductor. The data reveal all six types of zone center optical phonons, along with their corresponding Davydov splittings, which have been chall…
It is shown, for the first time, that negative refraction with positive phase velocity refraction can be realized (and controlled) over a wide range of frequency on the first (lowest) pass band of simple photonic and phononic crystals. First a unified approach is presented to accurately, efficiently, and uniquely prod…
In this paper, we present a thorough stress analysis of the Cu-Zr metallic-glass composite with embedded B2 particles subject to a martensitic transformation. Within the framework of the Eshelby theory, we are able to explain, in a quantitative manner, (1) the formation of three types of shear bands with distinct morp…
This work investigates the hydrogen evolution process on magnesium by real time imaging of the corroding surface at the free corrosion potential and during potentiodynamic polarization in alkaline and neutral environments, in the presence and absence of chloride ions. High-magnification imaging of the corrosion proces…
For multi-phase intermetallic particles consisting of both θ-and S-phase, de-alloying occurred preferentially at S-phase and the de-alloying of θ-phase initiated in the regions surrounding S-phase. The selective dissolution of Al from θ-phase resulted in porous copper-rich θ-phase remnant, comprised of randomly orient…
A one-step hydrothermal method for synthesizing nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) from organic carbon sources is presented in this paper. The high-quality N-GQDs can be obtained via tuning the degree of dehydration/carbonization of citric acid and doping of nitrogen atoms into the graphene lattice. The mic…
The formation of the Ti-MoS2 interface, which is heavily utilized in nanoelectronic device research, is studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It is found that, if deposition under high vacuum (∼1 × 10(-6) mbar) as opposed to ultrahigh vacuum (∼1 × 10(-9) mbar) conditions are used, TiO2 forms at the interface ra…
The polyfunctional nature of chitosan enables its application as a polymer ligand not only for the recovery, separation, and concentration of metal ions, but for the fabrication of a wide spectrum of functional materials. Although unmodified chitosan itself is the unique cationic polysaccharide with very good complexi…
Ultrathin membranes with intrinsic pores are highly desirable for gas separation applications, because of their controllable pore sizes and homogeneous pore distribution and their intrinsic capacity for high flux. Two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with layered structures have periodically distrib…
