Spring-block approach for nanobristle patterns

Ferenc Járai-Szabó, Emőke-Ágnes Horvát, Robert Vajtai +1

A two dimensional spring-block type model is used to model capillarity driven self-organization of nanobristles. The model reveals the role of capillarity and van der Waals forces…

Graphene edge from A to Z - and the origins of nanotube chirality

Yuanyue Liu, Alex Dobrinsky, Boris I. Yakobson

The energy of arbitrary graphene edge is derived in analytical form. It contains a "chemical phase shift", determined by the chemical conditions at the edge. Direct atomistic compu…

Renormalized Energies of Superfluorescent Bursts from an Electron-Hole Magneto-plasma with High Gain in InGaAs Quantum Wells

J. -H. Kim, J. Lee, G. T. Noe +6

We study light emission properties of a population-inverted 2D electron-hole plasma in a quantizing magnetic field. We observe a series of superfluorescent bursts, discrete both in…

Anomalous Transport and Possible Phase Transition in Palladium Nanojunctions

Gavin D. Scott, Juan J. Palacios, Douglas Natelson

Many phenomena in condensed matter are thought to result from competition between different ordered phases. Palladium is a paramagnetic metal close to both ferromagnetism and super…
