Infrared spectra of hydrogenated diamond nanocrystals of one nanometer length are calculated by ab initio methods. Positions of atoms are optimized via density functional theory at the level of the generalized gradient approximation of Perdew, Burke and Ernzerhof (PBE) using 3-21G basis states. The frequencies in the…

We use multi-photon photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) to image the enhanced electric fields of silver nanoparticles supported on a silver thin film substrate. Electromagnetic field enhancement is measured by comparing the photoelectron yield of the nanoparticles with respect to the photoelectron yield of the su…

We study graphene nanoribbons and carbon nanotubes containing ordered defect lines built of octagonal rings. We show that octagonal defect lines are a robust source of state localization at the Fermi energy, in some cases leading to spontaneous magnetization. We also prove that the localization at chains of octagons i…

Binderless monoliths of supercapacitor electrodes were prepared by the carbonization (N 2 ) and activation (CO 2 ) of green monoliths (GMs). GMs were made from mixtures of self-adhesive carbon grains (SACG) of fibers from oil palm empty fruit bunches and a combination of 5 & 6% KOH and 0, 5 & 6% carbon nanotubes (CNTs…

The properties of the interface in a phase-separated solution of polymers with different degrees of polymerization and Kuhn segment lengths are calculated. The starting point is the planar interface, the profile of which is calculated in the so-called “blob model”, which incorporates the solvent in an implicit way. Th…

Although bone is a nanocomposite of mineral and collagen, mineral has been the more elusive component of study. A standard for bone mineral is clearly needed. We hypothesized that the most natural, least-processed bone mineral could be retrieved from the most highly mineralized bone. We therefore studied the rostrum o…
