We report a new method of measuring the amplitude and phase of oscillations of individual multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). As in many other experiments, we excite the oscillations electrostatically, but we show that we can detect the amplitude and phase of the resulting oscillation electrically. As an example, we p…

Practical applications of the spintronic material CrO2 have been limited, primarily because of the difficulty in its synthesis, as it is not known to form in ambient pressures in a pure form. Here we show that CrO2 can be prepared by a simple route that bypasses the need to either apply any external pressure or measur…

Nanocrystalline metals present extremely high yield strengths but limited ductility. Using atomistic simulations, we show that the fracture resistance of bcc nanocrystalline materials increases with decreasing grain size below a critical grain size. There appears to be a "most brittle" grain size corresponding to the…

Abstract Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) nanocomposites with poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) were prepared via in situ polymerization. The refluxing time was more important factor than the sonication time for giving carboxylic groups onto the surface of MWNT. Acid‐MWNT prepared was well dispersed in ethylene gly…

1-Dimensional (1-D) TiO 2 nanostructures were prepared by a novel one-pot method, in which the water release was controlled by an esterification reaction between acetic acid and 2-propanol, and the alkoxide was partially coordinated with carboxylic acid, thus the hydrolysis step was significantly slowed. The successiv…
