Single indium atoms and few-atom indium clusters anchored onto graphene via silicon heteroatoms

Kenan Elibol, Clemens Mangler, David D. O'Regan +7

Single atoms and few-atom nanoclusters are of high interest in catalysis and plasmonics, but pathways for their fabrication and stable placement remain scarce. We report here the s…

Electron-Energy Loss of Ultraviolet Plasmonic Modes in Aluminum Nanodisks

Yujia Yang, Richard G. Hobbs, Phillip D. Keathley +1

We theoretically investigated electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) of ultraviolet surface plasmon modes in aluminum nanodisks. Using full-wave simulations, we studied the impac…
