In this work, effects of oxygen adsorption and diffusion on the stability, morphology, and charge transfer in single-layer graphene with structural point defects were investigated by density functional theory, specifically for the experimentally characterized monovacancy, double-vacancy, 555–777, 5555–6–7777, and Ston…
While the lattice volume in the solid-solution Ba1−xCaxTiO3 decreases with increasing x, the Curie temperature remains unaffected, in contrast to Ba1−xSrxTiO3. We have determined the origin of this phenomenon by comparing the local structures in (Ba,Ca)TiO3 and (Ba,Sr)TiO3. Reverse Monte Carlo refinements of instantan…
We present here a new programmable polymerization route for the synthesis of new conjugated polymers via one-pot reaction route. The three-component polycoupling reactions of terephthalaldehyde and dibenzylamine with 4,4′-diethynyl-1,1′-biphenyl, bis(4-ethynylphenyl)dimethylsilane, 1,2-bis(4-ethynylphenyl)-1,2-dipheny…
Self-assembly of ZnO porous nanosheets with novel parallelogram morphology and high specific surface area is achieved by a one-pot alkalization reaction. The growth mechanism relies on the dual roles of the precursor: providing the building blocks and the assembling template concurrently. This porous structure with ac…
During the solid state foaming, the CO 2 saturated poly(lactic acid) (PLA) sample at 5 MPa and 20 °C has a high crystallinity of 23.2%, and the prepared PLA foams exhibits low foam expansion and nonuniform cell structure. This study presents an interesting effect of nanosilica addition on the cell morphology and expan…
Ideal hydrophobic-hydrophilic composite cavities are highly desired to enhance nucleate boiling. However, it is challenging and costly to fabricate these types of cavities by conventional micro/nano fabrication techniques. In this study, a type of hydrophobic-hydrophilic composite interfaces were synthesized from func…
Aggregated metal nanoparticles have been known to display significantly enhanced two-photon photoluminescence (TPPL) compared to nonaggregated nanoparticles, which could be utilized to develop platforms for two-photon sensing and imaging applications. Here we have conducted single-particle spectroscopic studies on gol…
Over the past decades, our understanding of nacre's toughening origin has long stayed at the level of crack deflection along the biopolymer interface between aragonite platelets. It has been widely thought that the ceramic aragonite platelets in nacre invariably remain shielded from the propagating crack. Here we repo…
The four copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) with the size of 25, 50, 78 and 100 nm and one type of micron-sized particles (MPs) (~500 nm) were exposed to two mammalian (H4IIE and HepG2) and two piscine (PLHC-1 and RTH-149) cell lines to test the species-specific toxicities of CuNPs. The results showed that the morphologies,…
The radio-frequency (RF) voltage amplification property of a tunnel magnetoresistance device driven by an RF external-magnetic-field-induced ferromagnetic resonance was studied. The proposed device consists of a magnetic tunnel junction and an electrically isolated coplanar waveguide. The input RF voltage applied to t…
The development of high performance transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) is critical to many technologies from transparent electronics to solar cells. While n-type TCOs are present in many devices, current p-type TCOs are not largely commercialized as they exhibit much lower carrier mobilities, due to the large hole e…
By means of atomistic simulations, we demonstrate that a dislocation core exhibits intermittent quasistatic restructuring during incremental shear within the same Peierls valley. This can be regarded as a stick-slip transition, which is also reproduced for a one-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorova chain under rigid boundary…
The resistivity and the mobility of Carbon doped GaAs nanowires have been studied for different doping concentrations. Surface effects have been evaluated by comparing upassivated with passivated nanowires. We directly see the influence of the surface: the pinning of the Fermi level and the consequent existence of a d…
The electronic gap structure of the organic molecule N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4,4′-diamine, also known as TPD, has been studied by means of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) and by Photoluminescence (PL) analysis. Hundreds of current-voltage characteristics measured at different spots…
We study the temperature-dependent dynamical processes of a Si 10 H 16 cluster and obtain a blue shift of the Si–Si vibrational modes with transverse acoustic character and a red shift of the other vibrational modes with increasing temperature. We link this behavior to the bond length expansion and the varying sign of…
Heat assisted recording is believed as a key future recording technology. In the work of H. J. Richter et al. [J. Appl. Phys. 111, 033909 (2012)] it is stated that storage densities will be limited to 15–20 Tbit/in2 due to thermally induced write errors. In this letter we propose a composite structure consisting of tw…
We report the experimental demonstration of a broadband negative refractive index obtained in a labyrinthine acoustic metamaterial structure. Two different approaches were employed to prove the metamaterial negative index nature: one-dimensional extractions of effective parameters from reflection and transmission meas…
We study experimentally the magnetic coupling between ferromagnets separated by a thin Pt layer. The coupling remains ferromagnetic regardless of the Pt thickness and exhibits a significant dependence on temperature. We show that these results are consistent with the effects of temperature-dependent magnetism induced…
The structure of multi-wall carbon nanotubes has been attributed previously to disordered stacking of the graphene planes. Evidence is presented that the nanotubes analyzed in this paper occur with stacked graphene layers in the sequence of AA′, where alternate graphene planes are translated by half the hexagon width.…
Thin films of cuprous oxide (Cu2O) were grown using solution-based spray pyrolysis in ambient air and incorporated into hole-transporting thin-film transistors. The phase of the oxide was confirmed by X-ray diffraction measurements while the optical band gap of the films was determined to be ∼2.57 eV from optical tran…
