We have systematically measured the room-temperature thermal conductivity of epitaxial layers of InxGa1−xN alloys with 15 different Indium compositions ranging from 0.08 to 0.98 by time-domain thermoreflectance method. The data are compared to the estimates of the strength of phonon scattering by cation disorder. The…

Abstract Desymmetrization self-assembly of symmetric building blocks is a powerful method to construct elaborate metallosupramolecular architectures. Herein several examples are given to discuss how to build up self-assembled complexes with low symmetry, focusing on 1) stabilization of local structural motifs by templ…

We studied the experimental Raman spectra of various commercial silica nanoparticles of average diameter from 7 to 40 nm and specific surface from 50 to 380 m2/g. We found that the peculiarities of the particles Raman spectra systematically depend on their specific surface. In detail, the peak position of the R band a…

Li co-doped ZnO:Co (Zn0.96-yCo0.04LiyO , y ≤ 0.1) nanoparticles were synthesized by the sol-gel technique and the correlation between the structural, electronic and magnetic properties was investigated. All the samples show a single phase hexagonal (wurtzite) ZnO structure and no secondary phases were detected. Variat…

Quantum dots (QDs) have attracted increasing interest in bioimaging and sensing. Here, we report a biosensor of complex I using ubiquinone-terminated disulphides with different alkyl spacers (QnNS, n = 2, 5 and 10) as surface-capping ligands to functionalise CdSe/ZnS QDs. The enhancement or quenching of the QD bioconj…

The effect of dimensional confinement on the optical band gap of SrTiO3 is investigated by periodically introducing one extra SrO monolayer every n SrTiO3 layers. The result is the n = 1–5 and 10 members of the Srn+1TinO3n+1 Ruddlesden-Popper homologous series. Spectroscopic ellipsometry, optical transmission, and cat…

Abstract SnO2‐based catalysts modified by La, Ce, and Y with a Sn/Ln (Ln=La, Ce, Y) atomic ratio of 2:1 were prepared by using a co‐precipitation method and used for CO and CH4 oxidation. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption–desorption, XRD, energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS)‐SEM, H2 temperature‐p…

The magnetic property of the LaMnO3−δ films was systematically investigated with the variation of the deposited oxygen pressure. The Curie temperature and the saturation magnetization of the films were found increased with the decrease of the oxygen pressure. We believe that the double exchange effect between Mn2+ and…

Most standard models for the thermal boundary conductance (TBC) assume isotropic properties and thus are inappropriate for layered and chainlike materials such as graphite, Bi${}_{2}$Te${}_{3}$, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). To model such anisotropic materials, here a framework is introduced whereby the first…

Ferroelectric and ferroelastic domain structure has a profound effect on the piezoelectric, ferroelectric, and dielectric responses of ferroelectric materials. However, domain walls and strain field effects on thermal properties are unknown. We measured the thermal conductance from 100–400 K of epitaxially grown BiFeO…

We investigate optical transitions of noninteracting electron systems consisting of two symmetric energy bands touching each other at the Fermi energy (e.g., graphene at half-filling). Optical conductivity is obtained using Kubo formula at zero temperature. We show that for particles whose pseudospin direction is dete…
