Tribological behaviour of induction hardened ISO 42CrMo4 low alloy steel was evaluated under unlubricated sliding conditions. The effect of hardening depth and test conditions on the friction and wear properties was investigated. The tribological tests were carried out on a reciprocating tribometer. Cylinder-on-flat c…
We have investigated the low-temperature magnetic state of face-centered-cubic (fcc) ${\mathrm{Cs}}_{3}{\mathrm{C}}_{60}$, a Mott insulator and the first molecular analog of a geometrically frustrated Heisenberg fcc antiferromagnet with $S=1/2$ spins. Specific heat studies reveal the presence of both long-range antife…
The noncovalent coating of carbon-based nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, has important applications in nanotechnology and nanomedicine. The molecular modeling of this process can clarify its mechanism and provide a tool for the design of novel materials. In this paper, the coating mechanism of single-walled ca…
A voltammetric technique was used to produce a thin coating of polyaniline nanofibers (PANINFs) on ITO-coated glass substrates. Thereafter, bismuth sulfide nanoparticles (Bi2S3NPs) were chemically deposited on the PANINFs layer. The composite films were firmly adhered to the substrate and uniformly distributed. The fi…
Nanocrystals with more than one molecule in the unit cell will generally crystallize with incomplete unit cells on the crystal surface. Previous results show that the ensemble-averaged diffraction by such crystals consists of a usual Bragg component and two other Bragg-like components due to the incomplete unit cells.…
Gas-phase FTIR spectra of the ν6 (B-type) and the ν4 (C-type) fundamental bands of S2 N2 (D2h ) were recorded with a resolution of ≤0.004 cm(-1) and the vibrational spectrum of S2 N2 (D2h ) in solid Ar has been revisited. All IR-active fundamentals and four combination bands were assigned in excellent agreement with c…
The influences of uniaxial compressive stress on martensitic transformation were studied on a polycrystalline Ni-Mn-Ga bulk alloy prepared by directional solidification. Based upon the integrated in-situ neutron diffraction measurements, direct experimental evidence was obtained on the variant redistribution of seven-…
We report the fabrication details and low-temperature characteristics of carbon nanotube (CNT) quantum dots on flakes of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) as substrate. We demonstrate that CNTs can be grown on hBN by standard chemical vapor deposition and that standard scanning electron microscopy imaging and lithography…
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the thermal conductivity and local heat flux distribution of Bi2Te3 nanowires. It is found that at room temperature, the converged length-independent thermal conductivity of Bi2Te3 nanowires is only 0.89 W/m K, which is about 2-fold lower than their bulk counterpart…
A very interesting phenomenon has been observed in which foam formed from an aqueous fatty acid potassium salt solution spontaneously absorbs liquid oil immediately upon contact without defoaming. Although this phenomenon initially appeared to be based on capillary action, it was clarified that the liquid oil that flo…
Using a facile top-down etching approach, a subwavelength-sized diamond pit structure infilled with semi-ellipsoidal gold nanoparticles was fabricated. The three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain simulations reveal strong localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) scattering and enhanced electric field exhibit…
Graphene has been discovered to have two effects on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of graphene/GeSi quantum dot (QD) hybrid structures, which were formed by covering monolayer graphene sheet on the multilayer ordered GeSi QDs sample surfaces. At the excitation of 488 nm laser line, the hybrid structure had a re…
An intensive theoretical study on the interaction between graphene and transition metal atom has been carried out; however, its experimental verification is still lacking. To explore the theoretical prediction of antiferromagnetic coupling due to charge transfer between graphene and cobalt, epitaxial layer of cobalt i…
The Debye temperature of wurtzite aluminum nitride (AlN) was determined by the Rietveld refinement method based on the room-temperature X-ray powder diffraction data. The refined lattice parameters are a = 3.11139(1) Å, c = 4.978 43(3) Å; the refined positional parameter for N is z = 0.384 59(33) Å; and the refined te…
In this work, based on the density functional theory, the interaction of vitamins A, B1, C, B3 and D with (5, 5) armchair and (9, 0) zigzag single-walled boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) are studied. It is found that binding of vitamins A, B1, C, B3 and D with (9, 0) and (5, 5) BNNTs is thermodynamically favorable. Cal…
Most ferroelectrics are also ferroelastics (hysteretic stress‐strain relationship and response to mechanical stresses). The interactions between ferroelastic twin walls and ferroelectric domain walls are complex and only partly understood, hindering the technological potential of these materials. Here we study via ato…
Hillert's mean-field elastic prediction of the diffusivity of carbon in ferrite is regularly used to explain the experimental observation of slow diffusion of carbon in supersaturated ferrite. With increasing carbon supersaturation, the appropriateness of assuming that many-body carbon interactions can be ignored need…
Barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanocubes with different size distributions were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions by using bis(ammonium lactate) titanium dihydroxide as the Ti source at a temperature of 220 °C. Oleic acid and tert-butylamine were employed as the surfactant and the additive in the synthesis of the na…
The synthesis and magnetic characterisation of four new heterometallic {CrIII2DyIII2} complexes 2–5 are described. The present work follows on from a recently isolated complex [CrIII2DyIII2(OMe)2(O2CPh)4(mdea)2(NO3)2] (1) (mdeaH2 = N-methyldiethanolamine), which displayed impressive single molecule magnet (SMM) proper…
Temperature-dependent interband transitions and exciton excitations of sol-gel derived ${\mathrm{CuCr}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$${\mathrm{Mg}}_{x}$${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ $(2%\ensuremath{\le}x\ensuremath{\le}8%)$ films have been investigated by transmittance spectra (8--300 K) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra (77--300 K). An…
