We demonstrated Schottky-barrier solar cell using layer-structured semiconductor tungsten disulfide (WS2) nanofilm (NF) as the photo-active material. WS2 NFs were synthesized by chemical-vapor-deposition initiated on the surface of tungsten. The growth of WS2 NF was confirmed by Raman signature peaks representing acti…

We have developed a facile approach to synthesize anisotropic Janus hybrid particles by selective modification of bulgy patches on the composite spheres, which are in situ grown by phase separation during seeded emulsion polymerization. Janus particles are achieved by dissolution of the seed polymer particles. It is t…

Abstract Plasmonic metal nanoparticles absorb and scatter visible light due to localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). The optical properties including resonance wavelength and absorption intensity depend on particle size, shape, orientation, spacing, and dielectric environments. If silver nanoparticles are placed…

Three complexes of Mn(III) with "scorpionate" type ligands have been investigated by a variety of physical techniques. The complexes are [Tp(2)Mn]SbF(6) (1), [Tp(2)*Mn]SbF(6) (2), and [{PhB(MeIm)(3)}(2)Mn](CF(3)SO(3)) (3a), where Tp(-) = hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate anion, Tp*(-) = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate…

In this work, we present the third order nonlinear optical investigation of two gold complexes, which differ by the nature of the counter cations. The impact of the different design in the architecture through a set of hydrogen bonds in the case of Au-Mel of the systems on the nonlinearity has been studied by means of…

A family of high-nuclearity [Ln(III)(6)Mn(III)(12)] (Ln = Gd, Tb) nanomagnets has been synthesized, of which two are in D(2) molecular symmetry and the other two are in C(1) symmetry. X-ray crystallography shows that each of them contains a similar {Mn(III)(8)O(13)} unit, four marginal Mn(III) ions, and two linear {Ln…

We introduce a novel method to produce macroporous ceramics by capillary suspensions. Adding a small amount (~1 vol%) of an immiscible secondary phase to a low concentration (~20 vol%) suspension can increase the yield stress by several orders of magnitude. This drastic change in flow behavior is induced by the creati…

Continuous-Time Quantum Monte Carlo (CT-QMC) method combined with Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT) is used to calculate both Periodic Anderson Model (PAM) and Kondo Lattice Model (KLM). Different parameter sets of both models are connected by the Schrieffer-Wolff transformation. For degeneracy N=2, a special particl…

The epitaxial stabilization of a single layer or superlattice structures composed of complex oxide materials on polar (111) surfaces is severely burdened by the reconstructions at the interface that commonly arise to neutralize the polarity. We report on the synthesis of high quality LaNiO3/mLaAlO3 pseudo cubic (111)…

Two dimensional crystal heterostructures are shown to possess a unique opportunity for nonlinear THz devices. In contrast to the oxide tunneling barrier, the uniformity of layered crystal insulators provides an ideal condition for tunneling barriers in the atomic scale. Numerical calculations based on a first-principl…
