We combine first-principles, statistical, and phenomenological methods to investigate the electronic and dielectric properties of NiO and clarify the nature of the gigantic dielectric response in codoped NiO. Unlike previous models which are dependent on grain-boundary effects, our model based on small polaron hopping…

Passive oxidation of single crystal silicon carbide (6H–SiC) resulted in the formation of a vitreous silica layer which crystallized gradually at temperatures near 1300°–1400°C. During this process, statistically distributed devitrification centers appeared and disk‐like aligned crystal plates (radialites) formed. The…

A novel, simple, and feasible route for synthesizing air‐stable, water‐soluble tantalum precursors has been developed using moisture‐insensitive Ta 2 O 5 as a starting source of the Ta element, based on the conventional basic flux method. Various analytical techniques have been used to characterize the formation mecha…

A hybrid polymer-nanocrystal (NC) light-emitting diode (LED) device with a single active layer structure is simply fabricated by a spin coating. From a high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) study, each PVK polymer particle is observed to be capped with TPBi molecules and CdSe/ZnS NCs are mainly dist…

We report that an achiral particle with anisotropic rigidity can migrate in the vorticity direction in shear flow. A minimal "tetrumbbell" model of such a particle is constructed from four beads and six springs to make a tetrahedral structure. A combination of two different spring constants corresponding to "hard" and…

Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) is an effective mesoscopic particle model with a lower computational cost than molecular dynamics because of the soft potentials that it employs. However, the soft potential is not strong enough to prevent the DPD particles that are used to represent the fluid from penetrating solid…

Crystal structures of metastable tetragonal Ce x Zr 1− x O 2 have been studied through first principles calculations (0 ≤ x ≤ 1). Unit-cell parameters a, c, and atomic coordinates of 24 atoms were optimized for all the occupational configurations of Ce and Zr atoms by using the constraints for cell parameters: a = b a…
