Simulation of tunnel current flowing in a p-n diode made from armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) was built. The diode is composed of p-type and n-type AGNRs and bandgaps of the AGNRs are obtained by using a tight binding method. The bandgaps are required to describe a potential profile having a potential barrier of…

Magnetic spin waves (SWs) have been induced and detected in a Ni80Fe20thin film by two identical copper coplanar waveguides (CPWs). The dc fields up to 25 kA/m have been applied parallel to the CPWs, and magnetostatic surface SWs have been generated by applying voltages through the first CPW (source). The second CPW (…

Reflection symmetry properties play important roles for the stability of crystal lattices in which electrons and phonons move. Based on the reflection symmetry properties, cubic, tetragonal, orthorhombic, rhombohedral (trigonal) and hexagonal crystal systems are shown to have three-dimensional (3D) k-spaces for the co…

The evaporation on a superhydrophobic surface allows the fluid to dramatically concentrate. M. Khine and co-workers show in article 1400034 that the weak surface adhesion enables the fluid droplet to constantly decrease its footprint area and contact diameter. Molecules in solution are confined to a footprint that is…

Since the discovery of quasicrystals began to percolate through the scientific community, thirty years ago, Delaunay sets have been the tool of choice for describing their structures geometrically. These descriptions have gradually evolved from tiling vertex models to random cluster models, as the structures of real a…
