Single-walled carbon nanotubes were dispersed in an aqueous medium using surfactants and filtered to make entangled networks, called buckypaper (BP), and the Raman spectra of BP samples revealed the degree of entanglement and residual surfactant content. The temperature dependence of the G-band peak shift in the BP wa…
It is demonstrated that sputtered thin film platinum (Pt) can be used as a catalytic metal for graphene growth on metal. During the crystallization annealing, the sputtered Pt is crystallized mostly into Pt (111) orientation, maintaining excellent surface roughness with no sign of agglomeration. The relatively lower c…
We report on the formation and transport properties of ZnO thin films which are grown by pulsed-electron beam deposition under a low residual oxygen pressure (10−5 mbar). ZnO films presenting metallic conductivity at room temperature, and a metal-semiconductor transition at low temperature, were epitaxially grown on A…
Pulsed laser (532 nm) deposited Ge2Sb2Te5 thin films were investigated by means of spectroscopic ellipsometry and Raman scattering spectroscopy. Tauc–Lorentz and Cody–Lorentz models were employed for the evaluation of optical functions of thin films in as-deposited (amorphous) and crystalline (cubic) phases. The model…
Multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) thin films with (111), (100), (110) preferred, and random orientations were deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on SrRuO3-buffered SrTiO3(111), SrTiO3(100), SrTiO3(110), and Pt(111)/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates, respectively. The orientation dependences of ferroelectric and fatigu…
TiCoSb-based half-Heusler compounds have been prepared and their thermoelectric properties are studied. By isoelectronic alloying on the Ti site with Zr, although both the thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity are suppressed, the Seebeck coefficient is improved remarkably with a highest value of −420 μV/K f…
Ho 3 + -doped and Ho3+/Yb3+-codoped lead bismuth gallate (PBG) oxide glasses were prepared and their spectroscopic properties were investigated. The derived Judd–Ofelt intensity parameters (Ω2=6.81×10−20 cm2, Ω4=2.31×10−20 cm2, and Ω6=0.67×10−20 cm2) indicate a higher asymmetry and stronger covalent environment for Ho…
Phase evolution in the (Ag1−xKx)NbO3 (AKN) solid solution was investigated by x-ray diffraction, dielectric, and ferroelectric measurements. At room temperature, there are three phase boundaries at xc1≈0.07, xc2≈0.20, and xc3≈0.8. When xc1<x, AKN transforms from the AgNbO3-type orthorhombic phase with a weak fe…
The photon absorption in Si quantum dots (QDs) embedded in SiO2 has been systematically investigated by varying several parameters of the QD synthesis. Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) or magnetron cosputtering (MS) have been used to deposit, upon quartz substrates, single layer, or multilayer structu…
In this article, nonlocal elasticity theory is applied to investigate the vibration response of nanoplates under uniaxially prestressed conditions. Nonlocal elasticity theory takes into account the small-size effects when dealing with nanostructures. Nonlocal governing equations of the prestressed nanoplate are derive…
The angular dependence of the remanence and coercivity of Ni nanowire arrays produced inside the pores of anodic alumina membranes has been studied. By comparing our analytical calculations with our measurements, we conclude that the magnetization reversal in this array is driven by means of the nucleation and propaga…
Magnetic and ferroelectric properties are investigated for the polycrystalline Bi2Fe4O9 ceramics with different grain sizes (60–2000 nm) synthesized by a modified Pechini method. It shows that magnetic and ferroelectric properties are strongly dependent on the grain size. For the 60 nm samples, the magnetization curve…
We present a flexure mode composite design to generate steep transverse strain gradient to exploit large flexoelectric coefficient μ1122 of (Ba,Sr)TiO3 (BST) ceramics. Very strong direct piezoelectric effect was observed in composites due to the flexoelectricity. In a single unit composite, sharp low frequency (&l…
A composite conductive material, which consists of fibers of a high conductivity in a matrix of low conductivity, is discussed. The effective conductivity of the system considered is calculated in Clausius-Mossotti approximation. Obtained relationships can be used to calculate the conductivity of a matrix, using exper…
The blue-green photoluminescence emitted by pure and electron-doped strontium titanate under intense pulsed near-ultraviolet excitation is studied experimentally as a function of excitation intensity and temperature. Both emission spectra and time-resolved decays of the emission are measured and analyzed in the framew…
A nanoscale non-contact electrical measurement has been developed based on Auger electron spectroscopy. This approach used the speciality of Auger electron, which is self-generated and free from external influences, to overcome the technical limitations of conventional measurements. The detections of the intrinsic loc…
A general problem arising in computer simulations is the number of material and device parameters, which have to be determined by dedicated experiments and simulation-based parameter extraction. In this study we analyze measurements of the short-circuit current dependence on the active layer thickness and current-volt…
Charge ordering, dielectric permittivity, and local structure of La5/3Sr1/3NiO4 system have been explored by x-ray charge scattering, complex dielectric impedance spectroscopy, and extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements, made on the same single crystal sample. The local structure measured by the…
The edge reconstruction of zigzag graphene nanoribbons to a stable line of alternatively fused seven and five membered rings with hydrogen passivation has been studied within density functional theory with both localized and extended basis approximations. Reconstruction of both edges results in a nonmagnetic metallic…
CaCu 3 Ti 4 O 12 ceramics with a range of resistivities have been prepared using both conventional sintering and spark plasma sintering. For all cases, the high effective permittivity is associated primarily with an internal barrier layer capacitor mechanism. Additional polarization associated with the electrode-sampl…
