Introducing sp3 bonds in carbon nanotubes can significantly modify their electronic properties but need high pressure at room temperature. Here we show by molecular dynamics simulations that sp2 to sp3 bond transition can be realized through bending manipulation at the buckling location, resembling that of nanoindente…

We study the emergence of multiband superconductivity with s- and d-wave symmetry on the background of a spin density wave (SDW). We show that the SDW coherence factors renormalize the momentum dependence of the superconducting (SC) gap, yielding a SC state with an unconventional s-wave symmetry. Interband Cooper pair…

Polyimide foils were irradiated with energetic Kr (740 MeV) and Pb (890 MeV) ions at cryogenic temperature (12 K). Beam-induced degradation processes were monitored by residual gas analysis and online infrared spectroscopy. The outgassing components observed at low irradiation temperatures differ in quantity but are s…

Different electric field intensities were added along the growth direction of CuO nanoneedles when using a thermal oxidation process. The results show that: (1) the length of CuO nanoneedles increased with the electric field, but when the voltage was greater than a certain value, the growth stopped and (2) the diamete…
