The melting of ultrathin lubricant film is studied by friction between atomically flat surfaces. The fluctuations of lubricant temperature are taken into account defined by Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. The phase diagrams and portraits are calculated for the cases of second-order and first-order transitions -- the melti…

I analyze in details distribution of local magnetic field induced by micro- and nano-magnets. I consider three kinds of elongated magnetic islands: ellipse-, diamond- and rectangular shaped islands which were magnetized uniformly along long axis. This report concentrates on the role of their shape upon distribution of…

In this letter, we explore electron filtering as a technique to increase Seebeck coefficient and the thermoelectric power factor of heterostructured materials over that of the bulk. We present a theoretical model in which Seebeck coefficient and the power factor can be increased in an InGaAs based composite material.…

We present a first-principles study of the unreconstructed (001) surfaces of the half-metallic ferromagnet NiMnSb. Both terminations (MnSb and Ni) are considered. We find that half-metallicity is lost at the surfaces. After a discussion of the geometric relaxations and the spin-polarized surface band structure, we foc…

We perform a theoretical investigation on the time evolution of spin pulses in an $n$-type GaAs (001) quantum well with and without external electric field at high temperatures by constructing and numerically solving the kinetic spin Bloch equations and the Poisson equation, with the electron-phonon, electron-impurity…

A temperature-dependent emission is observed for CdTe nanoparticles connected to Au nanoparticles by a flexible poly(ethyleneglycol) (PEG) link acting as a molecular spring (see picture). The extension of the PEG springs varies depending on the temperature, which causes variations in CdTe emission caused by plasmon–ex…

Here, we present a systematic study on the influence of the bioligand deferoxamine mesylate on the crystallization and assembly behavior of tungsten oxide in a soft-chemistry process. Without deferoxamine mesylate, this approach yields pseudo-single crystalline tungstite nanoplatelets consisting of a large number of c…

In this article, we report the formation of dispersed anisotropic nanostructures by the oriented attachment mechanism, under hydrothermal conditions and in a system that all other growth processes are improbable. The comparison of dilute and agglomerated experimental conditions indicate that oriented attachment is an…

The instantaneous structure of the cyanide-bridged negative thermal expansion (NTE) material Zn(CN)(2) has been probed using atomic pair distribution function (PDF) analysis of high energy X-ray scattering data (100-400 K). The temperature dependence of the atomic separations extracted from the PDFs indicates an incre…

The influence of surface modification on the luminescence of colloidal ZnO nanocrystals is described, with particular emphasis given to factors increasing excitonic emission quantum yields. Changes in nanocrystal size, shape, and luminescence intensities have been measured for nanocrystals capped by dodecylamine (DDA)…

The pressure-temperature phase diagram of the organic Mott insulator kappa-(ET)2Cu2(CN)3, a model system of the spin liquid on triangular lattice, has been investigated by 1H NMR and resistivity measurements. The spin-liquid phase is persistent before the Mott transition to the metal or superconducting phase under pre…

Silver and gold nanorods with aspect ratios from 1 to 16 have been used as substrates for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) in colloidal solution. The nanorod aspect ratio is varied to give different degrees of overlap between the nanorod longitudinal plasmon band and excitation source in order to determine i…

Magic-sized cadmium selenide (CdSe) nanocrystals have been pyrolytically synthesized. These ultra-small nanocrystals exhibit broadband emission (420-710 nm) that covers most of the visible spectrum while not suffering from self absorption. This behavior is a direct result of the extremely narrow size distribution and…

The phonons of single-wall carbon nanotubes are investigated within a generalized bond-charge model. The computed phonon dispersions generally agree with earlier results: two acoustic phonons (longitudinal and rotating), flexure modes at low frequencies, and radius-dependent radial breathing modes. Computation of the…
