Boron (B) doped Si nanocrystals (Si-ncs) dispersed in hydrofluoric (HF) acid solution are prepared by dissolving borosilicate films containing B-doped Si-ncs in HF solution. We find that the etching rate of B-doped Si-ncs is much smaller than that of undoped Si-ncs. The difference of the etching rate allows us to extr…

Vacuum annealing is a widely used method to increase the electric conductivity of SrTiO3 single crystals. The induced oxygen vacancies act as intrinsic donors and lead to n-type conductivity. Apart from the changed electronic structure, however, also crystal structure modifications arise from this treatment. Hence, el…

Water is known to be an exceptionally poor glass former, which is a significant drawback in the low-temperature storage of food and biomatter. This is one of the characteristic features of water, but its link to the thermodynamic and kinetic anomalies of water remains elusive. Recently, we showed that the glass-formin…

Abstract Closed capped WS 2 nanotubes with diameters from 30 to 110 nm are studied by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The tubes exhibit preferentially a hexagonal stacking order. Atomic resolution images of a 30 nm diameter tube reveal a zigzag chirality. A lattice expansion in c‐axis directi…

Energy eigenvalues and wave functions of hydrogen atoms in hydride LaNi(5)H(7) are calculated. First-principles electronic structure calculations are employed to obtain the three-dimensional potential energy structure of each hydrogen site. These quantum effects are not negligibly small in evaluation of enthalpy of fo…
