We have investigated epitaxial graphene films grown on SiC(0001) by annealing in an atmosphere of Ar instead of vacuum. Using AFM and LEEM we observe a significantly improved surface morphology and graphene domain size. Hall measurements on monolayer graphene films show a carrier mobility of around 1000 cm^2/Vs at roo…

We consider the influence of the built-in surface field on the 180-degree domain wall profile in primary ferroics within Landau-Ginsburg-Devonshire phenomenological approach. We predict the effect of domain wall bending near the surface caused by the built-in field and derived corresponding approximate analytical expr…

In this paper we investigated the most important family of proton conducting oxides, i.e. cerates, by means of pair distribution function analysis (PDF) obtained from total neutron scattering data. The results clearly demonstrates that the local structure plays a fundamental role in the protonation process. Oxygen vac…

We introduce the construction of a orthogonal wavepacket basis set, using the concept of stroboscopic time propagation, tailored to the efficient description of non-equilibrium extended electronic systems. Thanks to three desirable properties of this basis, significant insight is provided into non-equilibrium processe…

We report on a controlled synthesis of two novel semiconducting heterostructures: heterocrystalline-ZnS/single-crystalline-ZnO biaxial nanobelts and side-to-side single-crystalline ZnS/ZnO biaxial nanobelts via a simple one-step thermal evaporation method. In the first heterostructure, a ZnS domain is composed of the…

We report the near-edge x-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) spectrum of a single layer of graphite (graphene) obtained by micromechanical cleavage of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite on a SiO2 substrate. We utilized a photoemission electron microscope to separately study single-, double-, and few-layers graphene…

InP/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals are prepared using a single-step heating-up method relying on the difference in reactivity of the applied InP and ZnS precursors. The obtained particles exhibit size-dependent emission in the range of 480-590 nm, a fluorescence quantum yield of 50-70%, and high photostability.

Electrospinning has emerged to be a simple, elegant and scalable technique to fabricate polymeric nanofibers. Pure polymers as well as blends and composites of both natural and synthetics have been successfully electrospun into nanofiber matrices. Physiochemical properties of nanofiber matrices can be controlled by ma…

Polymer matrix nanocomposites have attracted growing attention due to the potential for significantly improving the properties of the polymer by adding a very small amount of nanoparticles. However, the improvement in properties has been related to the degree of dispersion of the nanoparticles in the polymer matrix an…

Abstract This article is devoted to the elaboration of a nonempirical kinetic model for the thermal oxidation of molten unstabilized polypropylene (PP), which occurs typically at 170–250°C, a current temperature range for PP processing. The validity of the kinetic model has been successfully checked with the kinetic c…
