The authors propose a new structure of ZnO∕ZnMgO field-effect transistors (FETs) for demonstrating high-performance capability of ZnO-based FETs. A very thin (2nm) ZnMgO cap layer is used for forming a hetero-metal-insulator-semiconductor (hetero-MIS) gate structure together with a 50-nm-thick Al2O3 gate dielectric. T…
Magnetic tunnel junctions with a Co2MnSi∕Al–O∕CoFe structure are prepared by magnetron sputtering and investigated with respect to the energy gap near the Fermi energy level. The plasma oxidation time for the Al–O barrier is found to affect the condition of the Co2MnSi∕Al–O interface. The optimized sample (50s oxidati…
The authors use bilayer lipid membranes (BLMs) as a means to control the gating of organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs). Upon formation of a high quality BLM, the gating of an OECT can be fully suppressed. Gating is restored when gramicidin ion channels are incorporated into the BLM. The valence-dependent perme…
The formation and growth of helium bubbles due to self-irradiation in plutonium has been modelled by a discrete kinetic equations for the number densities of bubbles having $k$ atoms. Analysis of these equations shows that the bubble size distribution function can be approximated by a composite of: (i) the solution of…
A detailed investigation of ZnCr2Se4 is presented which is dominated by strong ferromagnetic exchange but orders antiferromagnetically at T_N = 21 K. Specific heat C and thermal expansion Delta L/L exhibit sharp first-order anomalies at the antiferromagnetic transition. T_N is strongly reduced and shifted to lower tem…
Based on first principles calculations, we show that $Mn$ impurities are magnetic in $MgB_{2}$ due to exchange-splitting of $d_{3z^2-1}$ band and they substantially modify $B$ $p_σ$ and $p_π$ bands through hybridization. Thus, $Mn$ impurities could act as strong magnetic scattering centers leading to pair-breaking eff…
We report on the transmission over a wide frequency range (from the far infrared through the visible) of pristine and hole-doped, free-standing carbon nanotube films at temperatures between 50 and $300\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$. Optical constants are estimated by Kramers-Kronig analysis of the transmittanc…
Abstract A photoresponsive molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) material is successfully fabricated from an azobenzene‐based functional monomer, 4‐[(4‐methacryloyloxy)phenylazo]benzoic acid (MPABA), using caffeine as a molecular template. The trans–cis photoisomerization properties of MPABA are retained after incorpora…
The effects of tetragonal strain on the electronic and magnetic properties of strontium-doped lanthanum manganite, La(2/3)Sr(1/3)MnO(3) (LSMO), are investigated by means of density-functional methods. As far as the structural properties are concerned, the comparison between theory and experiments for LSMO strained on…
We study the equilibrium properties of a model for a binary mixture of catalytically-reactive monomers adsorbed on a two-dimensional substrate decorated by randomly placed catalytic bonds. The interacting $A$ and $B$ monomer species undergo continuous exchanges with particle reservoirs and react ($A + B \to \emptyset$…
Time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) and micro-PL imaging were used to study single CdS nanowires at 10K. The low-temperature PL of all CdS nanowires exhibits spectral features near energies associated with free and bound exciton transitions, with the transition energies and emission intensities varying along the leng…
The magnetic and structural properties of MnAs are studied with ab initio methods and by mapping total energies onto a Heisenberg model. The stability of the different phases is found to depend mainly on the volume and on the amount of magnetic order, confirming previous experimental findings and phenomenological mode…
The focused ion beam microscope has been used to cut parallel-sided {100}-oriented thin lamellae of single crystal barium titanate with controlled thicknesses, ranging from $530\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{nm}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\text{to}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}70\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{nm}$…
Abstract Micelle‐templated silicas (MTSs) such as MCM‐41 and MCM‐48 feature unique textural properties owing to their uniform distribution of mesopores with tunable sizes. MTS synthesis is relevant to unique self‐assembly processes between surfactants and inorganic matter. The properties of MTSs have been explored in…
Abstract We report a general template strategy for rational fabrication of a new class of nanostructured materials consisting of multicore shell particles. Our approach is demonstrated by encapsulating Au or Pt nanoparticles in silica shells. Other superstructures of these hollow shells, like dimers, trimers, and tetr…
ARPES and wide area, high resolution STM studies of a micaceous cuprate high temperature superconductor have shown strong nanoscale gap disorder, but the question of whether this disorder is intrinsic and necessary for HTSC, or merely incidental to either this material, or even only its surface, appears to be an open…
Nonequilibrium electron spin polarization is calculated under spin injection from one ferromagnet to another in magnetic junction. It is shown that the nonequilibrium spin polarization can be comparable with equilibrium one if the material parameters are chosen appropriately. This leads to lowering the threshold curre…
Transient homogeneous nucleation is studied in the limit of large critical sizes. Starting from pure monomers, three eras of transient nucleation are characterized in the classic Becker-Döring kinetic equations with the Turnbull-Fisher discrete diffusivity. After an initial stage in which the number of monomers decrea…
Using large scale molecular dynamics simulations we investigate the properties of the nonaffine displacement field induced by macroscopic uniaxial deformation of amorphous silica, a strong glass according to Angell's classification. We demonstrate the existence of a length scale xi characterizing the correlations of t…
Colloidal solutions of metal nanoparticles are currently among the most studied substrates for sensors based on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). However, such substrates often suffer from not being cost-effective, reusable, or stable. Here, we develop nanoporous Au as a highly active, tunable, stable, biocomp…
