This letter reports the electrical and field-emission properties of Au-decorated boron nitride nanotubes (Au-BNNTs). The insulating BNNTs become metallic after Au coating as the Au coverage exceeds a critical value. The Au decoration modifies the work function of the BNNTs and, as a consequence, the field-emission cur…

We present a new field-extrema hysteresis loss model (FHM) for high-frequency ferrimagnetic materials, along with a parameter identification procedure. The model does not involve solving an ordinary differential equation (ODE) and is asymmetric in that it works well under dc bias conditions. In the proposed model, the…

Temperature and frequency dependence of dielectric permittivity in nanotextured ceramics of PbMg1∕3Nb2∕3O3 has been performed in a wide range of grain sizes and shown to display strong variation. In particular, frequency relaxation follows the Vögel Fulcher law for the high grain sizes, whereas for intermediate sizes,…

We have investigated the effect of the electric contact resistance in nano devices by manufacturing dedicated chips with four-point contacted platinum nanowires and individual, suspended, and four-point contacted carbon nanotubes. For both cases, we measured the intrinsic electrical resistance and the electrical conta…

The thermomechanical Lehmann coefficient ν is directly measured as a function of temperature in a compensated cholesteric liquid crystal. The method consists of observing the continuous rotation of the director in samples treated for planar sliding anchoring when a temperature gradient is applied perpendicularly to th…

We performed first-principles calculations to study the energetics, geometric and electronic properties of zinc sulfide (ZnS) nanostructures. ZnS nanowires (ZnSNWs), nanotubes (ZnSNTs) and nanosheets (ZnSNSs) were considered. Both ZnSNWs and ZnSNTs modeled using hexagonal prisms with the atomic arrangement displaying…

The elastic scattering mean free path (mfp) in a graphene nanoribbon (GNR) is characterized to be short. In the absence of other scattering mechanisms, elastic scattering has a large effect on the source-drain current of a GNR field-effect transistor due to its quasi-one-dimensional channel. In the presence of optical…

We report a facile method for synthesizing single-crystal rutile TiO2 nanowires using atmospheric-pressure, chemical vapor deposition with Ti and TiO as precursors. The synthesis is found to depend critically on the predeposition of a layer of metallic Ti on the Ni catalysts layer. The omission of this step seems prev…

We investigate the changes in the infrared response due to charge carriers introduced by electrostatic doping of the correlated insulator vanadium dioxide (VO2) integrated in the architecture of the field effect transistor. Accumulation of holes at the VO2 interface with the gate dielectric leads to an increase in inf…
