We report on the Seebeck coefficient of quantum confined electron gases in GdTiO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures. These structures contain two-dimensional electron gases with very high sheet-carrier concentrations on the SrTiO3-side of the interface due to intrinsic interface doping. While the sheet carrier concentrations ar…

We measured the negative normal stress differences in graphene (0.5 wt. %)/polycarbonate composites during shear flow. The Peclet number in graphene/PC melt is estimated to be 105 ∼ 108, indicating the graphene sheets are non-Brownian. The negative normal stress is related with the deformations of gel-like structure o…

Oxidative stress is a major factor contributing to endothelial cell damage. Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have oxidative properties; however, the oxidative effects of SWCNTs on endothelial cells are not fully understood. In the present study, we investigated the effects of oxidative stress induced by SWCNTs on…

In this letter a concept of a simple dual-band (DB) composite right/left-handed (CRLH) metamaterial is presented and discussed. This DB-CRLH concept is based on the combination of a conventional CRLH unit-cell with two conventional right-handed transmission-line sections. The equations required for analysis of such st…

Zinc-doped copper oxide (CuO:Zn) nanowires (NWs) with Cu and Zn layers were grown by thermal oxidation on a glass template in ambient air. The Zn content in the CuO NWs was approximated 9.9%. Field emitters using these CuO:Zn NWs were also fabricated on the glass substrate and compared with those using NWs composed of…

Abstract Methods to make polymer composites comprise melt and solution blending, but in the particular case of polyolefins they are not appropriate due to the weak interfacial adhesion. In the present work, in situ blended (ISB) together with in situ polymerization (ISP) processes have been employed and compared using…

We characterize the terahertz detection mechanism in antenna-coupled metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes. At low temperature, 4.2 K, a peak in the low-frequency differential resistance is observed at zero bias current due to non-Ohmic contacts. This electrical contact nonlinearity gives rise to the measured terahe…
