Extraordinary absorption decrease in graphene superlattices in the visible range is presented. Due to competition between loss and resonant reflection at resonance, the absorption displays non-monotonic behavior. As the period number increases above a certain critical value, absorption decreases with the increase in t…

The persistent hydrogen termination present in nanoporous silicon (nPS) is unique compared to other forms of nanoscale silicon (Si) which typically readily form a silicon dioxide passivation layer. The hydrogen terminated surface combined with the extremely high surface area of nPS yields a material capable of powerfu…

Abstract If cooled down from high temperatures, some half‐Heusler alloys based on CoTiSb show a spontaneous phase separation into coexisting domains. In thermoelectric applications, this domain structure is beneficial for the efficiency because it reduces the lattice thermal conductivity, which increases the figure of…

The final mean droplet size of concentrated solid-stabilized emulsions was predicted using a semiempirical approach. The first step was to estimate the coverage and interface generation potentials. The coverage potential was predicted from the properties of the particles while the interface generation potential was pr…

Martensitic phase transformations often exhibit crackling noise response of the emitted energy. This type of behavior implies that the phase transformation proceeds through numerous events that do not exhibit any characteristic scale. On the other hand, the twinned microstructure along the phase boundary exhibits a ch…

The GaN nanowall network, formed by opening the screw dislocations by kinetically controlled MBE growth, possesses a large surface and high conductivity. Sharp apexed nanowalls show higher surface electron concentration in the band-tail states, in comparison to blunt apexed nanowalls. Uncapped silver nanoparticles are…
