Nanotube alignment has been found to be one of the key parameters to explain the mechanical properties of carbon nanotube fibres. However, the question of the homogeneity of the alignment across the fibre diameter is still open. This letter reports on the first microdiffraction study of the alignment of nanotubes acro…

The redox properties of MCl2 (M=Mn, Fe, Co) acetonitrile solvates were electrochemically and spectroscopically characterized. The three voltammogram waves at 0.86, 0.48, and 0.21 V versus SCE for FeCl(2) dissolved in MeCN are assigned as one-electron reduction potentials for [Fe(II)Cl(x)(NCMe)4-x]2-x (1<or=x<or=3), re…

Batch-fabricated SiC nanowires were heated under an ammoniac flow up to 1400 °C. The ensuing product was characterized by SEM, HRTEM, EDX and XRD. As we found, SiC nanowires were completely converted into faceted α-Si 3 N 4 nanorods with diameters ranging from 10 to 500 nm and lengths lower than 10 µm. These nanorods…

Here we report on results of a spin-resolved photoelectron spectroscopic (SRPES) study of ${\mathrm{YCo}}_{2}$ thin films (150 \AA{}-thick) grown on a W(110) substrate. The films were prepared by co-deposition of stoichiometric amounts of Y and Co onto a clean W surface followed by thermal annealing leading to ($2\ifm…

Classical nucleation theory pictures the homogeneous nucleation of a crystal as the formation of a spherical crystalline embryo, possessing the properties of the macroscopic crystal, inside a parent supercooled liquid. In this work we study crystal nucleation in moderately supercooled sulfur hexafluoride by umbrella s…

It is well established (from which the general interest arises!) that nanomaterials (NM) display properties and behavior that can be very different compared to the corresponding bulk materials of the same chemical composition. Size, shape, and surface state are properties accounting for most of their differences (1,2)…
