The Fragment Hamiltonian (FH) model is introduced as the basis for a new class of atomistic potentials that may be viewed as generalizations of the embedded atom method (EAM) and related atomistic potentials. Many metals and alloys have been successfully modeled by this method and other related methods, but the nature…

A broadband omnidirectional absorber which is realized by heterostructures containing a collision plasma layer and a zero − n̅ mirror is theoretically investigated. A collision plasma layer and an appropriate dielectric layer are put on the top of the PC. It is shown to absorb roughly 70% of all available electromagne…

We examine heat transport carried by acoustic phonons in the systems composed of nanoscale chains of masses coupled to two thermal baths of different temperatures. Thermal conductance is obtained by using linearized Landauer-type formula for heat flux with phonon transmission probability calculated within atomistic Gr…

Valence band spectra (VBS) and its modification across Curie temperature (TC) of Sr2CoO4 thin film are studied using resonant photoemission spectroscopy. It is found that VBS mainly consists of hybridized states of Co-3d t2geg and O-2p; however, Co-3d eg states show its prominence only in the ferromagnetic temperature…

We model electrochemical kinetics and physical conduction mechanisms for carrier transport in electrolyte membranes to determine the limits of dimensionality reduction (down to 1 nm) on maximum power output of solid oxide fuel cells with symmetric Pt electrodes. Using Y-doped ZrO2, we find a minimum thickness of ∼6 nm…

Etching agents, including methylamine (MA) and several others, are used in many studies for exposing the crystal assembly in contrast to amorphous domains in polymer samples, for better morphology contrast. The selection of etching agents must be careful, so as not to alter the original chemical and crystal nature; ot…

In the present work, the local order of Zr in ZrO 2 –CeO 2 nanopowders (with 50, 65, 70, and 90 mol % CeO 2 ) was studied by extended X-ray absorption fine structure around the Zr K-edge. In the cases of ZrO 2 –50 and 65 mol % CeO 2, we studied how the local order is affected by the phase transition at high temperatur…

Abstract A novel approach, via the use of a blowing agent (BA), to enhance clay exfoliation in polymer nanocomposites is reported. A commercial organoclay was treated with a common low‐cost BA, which was then melt‐processed with polymers in an extruder. The characterization results revealed that the degrees of exfolia…
