Introducing N atoms to the pentacene backbone leads to N-heteropentacenes, whose properties can be tuned by changing the number, position and valence state of N atoms in the pentacene backbone. With a rapid development in recent years, N-heteropentacenes and their derivatives have arisen as a new family of organic sem…

A new kind of complex hollow structure, ZnO/CdS triple‐yolked hollow spheres (TYs), is prepared using a facile method. The formation mechanism is described in terms of a combined effect of the bubble‐assisted Ostwald ripening and appropriate ion‐exchange processes. The structural effect of ZnO hollow microspheres on t…

Using hybrid density functional theory, we investigate structural and electronic properties of small Cu n clusters (with n ≤ 9) adsorbed on the nonpolar ZnO(101̅0) surface. The Cu clusters grow in a planar fashion up to a size of six atoms, after which the clusters take on a polyhedral shape. We find even–odd alternat…
