Covalent Functionalization of HiPco Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes: Differences in the Oxidizing Action of H2SO4 and HNO3 during a Soft Oxidation Process
Xavier Devaux, Brigitte Vigolo, Edward Mcrae +7
The results of a study on the evolution of HiPco single-walled carbon nanotubes during the oxidizing action of H2SO4 and HNO3 are presented. The process conditions used have been c…
Narrow-gap Semiconducting Superhard Amorphous Carbon with Superior Toughness
Shuangshuang Zhang, Yingju Wu, Kun Luo +18
New carbon forms exhibiting extraordinary physico-chemical properties can be generated from nanostructured precursors under extreme pressure. Nevertheless, synthesis of such fascin…
Discovery of carbon-based strongest and hardest amorphous material
Shuangshuang Zhang, Zihe Li, Kun Luo +22
Carbon is likely the most fascinating element of the periodic table because of the diversity of its allotropes stemming from its variable (sp, sp2, and sp3) bonding motifs. Explora…
Improvable upper bounds to the piezoelectric polaron ground state energy
A. V. Soldatov
It was shown that an infinite sequence of improving non-increasing upper bounds to the ground state energy (GSE) of a slow-moving piezoeletric polaron can be devised.
Computationally efficient analytic representation of relativistic transition matrix elements in the Lamb shift calculations for hydrogenic atoms
J. Seke, A. V. Soldatov, M. Polak +1
By using the plane-wave expansion for the electromagnetic-field vector potential, transition matrix elements between the relativistic bound and unbound states of hydrogenic atoms w…
Spin-state transition, magnetism and local crystal structure in Eu_{1-x}Ca_xCoO_{3-d}
A. N. Vasiliev, T. M. Vasilchikova, O. S. Volkova +13
The doping series Eu1-xCaxCoO3-d provides a rather peculiar way to study the spin-state transition in cobalt-based complex oxides since partial substitution of Eu3+ ions by Ca2+ io…
