We present a Tight-Binding Molecular Dynamics investigation of the stability, the geometrical and the electronic structure of suspended monatomic transition metal chains. We show that linear and stable monatomic chains are formed at temperature equal or smaller than 500 K for Au, 200 K for Ag and 4 K for Cu. We also e…

The material and electrical properties of the CNT single vias and array vias grown by microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition were investigated. The diameters of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) grown on the bottom electrode of Ta decrease with increasing pretreatment power and substrate temperature whil…

Single-crystalline, narrow-size- distribution ultrafine ZnS nanobelts (see figure), revealing a notable quantum-confinement effect, have been synthesized at a high yield by controlling the evaporation and agglomeration rates. Field-emission measurements show ultrafine ZnS nanobelts are very good field emitters with a…

Atomistic simulations were employed to investigate the structure and energy of asymmetric tilt grain boundaries in Cu and Al. In this work, we examine the Σ5 and Σ13 systems with a boundary plane rotated about the ⟨ 100 ⟩ misorientation axis, and the Σ9 and Σ11 systems rotated about the ⟨ 110 ⟩ misorientation axis. As…

Abstract A trinuclear Mn II complex was obtained by reaction of manganese(II) perchlorate with the ligand 2‐methoxy‐6‐(pyridine‐2‐ylhydrazonomethyl)phenol in methanol. The X‐ray crystal structure of [Mn 3 L 4 ](ClO 4 ) 2 (H 2 O) 2 ( 1 ) reveals that the “bent” chain of the Mn II ions is assembled by a unique click‐ass…

The effects of the dielectric constant of the glass substrates on liquid crystal lens performances are studied. Lens properties and the optimum geometrical structure almost does not change with the dielectric constant. The driving voltages become low when glass substrates of high dielectric constant are used.

A fluid of rod–coil diblock copolymers, modelled as wormlike chains, is treated by using self-consistent field theory. The 'rod' and 'coil' sections of each molecule are distinguished by their degrees of flexibility (or persistence lengths), but are otherwise identical. Interactions between molecules are taken to be o…
