Reduced carbon solubility in Fe nano-clusters and implications for the growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes
A. R. Harutyunyan, N. Awasthi, A. Jiang +5
Various diameters of alumina-supported Fe catalysts are used to grow single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with chemical vapor decomposition. We find that the reduction of the ca…

Deconfinement of Vortices with Continuously Variable Fractions of the Unit Flux Quanta in Two-Gap Superconductors
Jun Goryo, Singo Soma, Hiroshi Matsukawa
We propose a new stage of confiment-decofinment transition, which can be observed in laboratory. In two-gap superconductors (SCs), two kinds of vortex exist and each of them carrie…
