We have investigated the magnetic ordering and electrical conductivity transitions of (LaMnO3)2/(SrMnO3)2 superlattices grown on SrTiO3 substrate based on density-functional theory. It is found that the uniaxial tensile strain along the z axis of about 1.4% induced a magnetic transition from antiferromagnetic to ferro…
ZnO microwires grown by carbothermal reduction were mechanically bent and the uniaxial stress state was studied with spatially resolved low-temperature photoluminescence. Inhomogeneous (tensile and compressive) stress (up to ±1 GPa) is visualized by the redshift and blueshift of the wire luminescence. Experimentally d…
Defects (O vacancies) with different Raman properties (A–C, see graphic) and reactivity are present on Au/CeO2. A is Raman inactive, located in external layers, able to form O22− species with O2; B, formed by a Au-catalysed reduction in H2, is Raman active, located in non-stoichiometric surface layer, and reacts with…
We propose a method of generating spin currents in monolayer graphene through adiabatic quantum pumping by two oscillating potentials. Spin splitting is induced in the graphene layer by ferromagnetic proximity. The pumped charge and spin currents are sensitive functions of the Fermi energy, which can thus be used to c…
Nano-long chains were grafted over the replicated micro-grooves of shark skin in a novel attempt to replicate bio-synthetic drag reduction structure with high precision through synthetic bio-replication. Pre-treated shark skin was used as casting template to prepare a flexible female die of silicone rubber by soft die…
The synthesis of few-layered graphene is performed by ion implantation of carbon species in thin nickel films, followed by high temperature annealing and quenching. Although ion implantation enables a precise control of the carbon content and of the uniformity of the in-plane carbon concentration in the Ni films befor…
Abstract Ultra‐fine grain sizes have been shown to enhance some key mechanical and functional properties of engineering materials, including shape memory alloys. While the effect of ultra‐fine and nanocrystalline grain sizes on pseudoelastic shape memory materials is well‐appreciated in medical device engineering, the…
This paper presents a diesel engine selective catalytic reduction (SCR) ammonia surface coverage ratio profile control design for a two-cell SCR system, which enables a staircase ammonia coverage ratio profile for simultaneously achieving high NOxconversion efficiency and low ammonia slip. Such a novel two-cell SCR ar…
Self-complementary monomer 1, which combines a macrotricyclic polyether and two dibenzylammonium ions together, was synthesized, and its self-assembly into supramolecular polymer networks by host-guest interactions was studied. For the purpose of comparative study, two model molecules 2 and 3 were also prepared. It wa…
Abstract Microcrystals of diaquocobalt(II) oxalate have been synthesized by the coprecipitation reaction of aqueous solutions of cobalt(II) bromide and oxalic acid. Chemical analysis and thermal experiments revealed that there is only one phase present. X‐ray powder diffraction studies show that this compound is ortho…
Iron oxides and oxyhydroxides are challenging to model computationally as competing phases may differ in formation energies by only several kJ/mol, they undergo magnetization transitions with temperature, their structures may contain partially occupied sites or long-range ordering of vacancies, and some loose structur…
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are known to be materials with potential for manufacturing sub-20 nm high aspect ratio vertical interconnects in future microchips. In order to be successful with respect to contending against established tungsten or copper based interconnects, though, CNT must fulfil their promise of also provi…
Graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition and supported on SiO2 and sapphire substrates was studied following the controlled introduction of defects induced by 35 keV carbon ion irradiation. Changes in Raman spectra for fluences ranging from 1012 to 1015 cm−2 indicate that the structure of graphene evolves from a hi…
We analyze changes of the electronic structure of a triangular molecule under the influence of an electric field (i.e., the Stark effect). The effects of the field are shown to be anisotropic and include both a linear and a nonlinear part. For strong electron correlations, we explicitly derive exchange couplings in an…
The effect of metal coating on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of ZnO nanowire arrays has been investigated in detail in this letter. The Zn coating induces remarkable enhancement of the ultraviolet and green emissions of the nanowires, while the deposition of Ag leads to notable decrement of them. A model consi…
The influence of hydrogen coverage on the thermal conductivity of typical armchair hydrogen functionalized graphene is investigated using a nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation. We also study the effects of easy-rotation of unsupported sp3 bonds. We find that the system exhibits a rapid drop in thermal conduct…
Abstract Cubic and octahedral Cu 2 O nanocrystals and Au–Cu 2 O core–shell heterostructures are used as sacrificial templates for the growth of Cu 2 S nanocages and Au–Cu 2 S core–cage structures. A rapid sulfidation process involving a surface reaction of Cu 2 O nanocrystals with Na 2 S, followed by etching of the Cu…
Abstract Advances in biotechnology, proteomics, and genomics, as well as the deeper understanding of the molecular and cellular bases of pathophysiological states, have allowed the development of novel drugs such as proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids as therapeutic strategies of the future. Their application, howev…
In order to obtain Ni-Mn-Ga epitaxial films crystallized in martensite structures showing Magnetic-Induced Rearrangement (MIR) of martensite variants, a fine control of the composition is required. Here we present how the co-sputtering process might be helpful in the development of Ni-Mn-Ga epitaxial films. A batch of…
We used oxygen ion irradiation to transfer the nanoscale pattern of a porous alumina mask into high- superconducting thin films. This causes a nanoscale spatial modulation of superconductivity and strongly affects the magneto-transport below, which shows a series of periodic oscillations reminiscent of the Little-Park…
