Pnictogens Allotropy and Phase Transformation during van der Waals Growth

Matthieu Fortin-Deschênes, Hannes Zschiesche, Tevfik O. Menteş +13

Pnictogens have multiple allotropic forms resulting from their ns2 np3 valence electronic configuration, making them the only elemental materials to crystallize in layered van der…

High-throughput nanoparticle analysis in a FEG-SEM using an inexpensive multi-sample STEM-ADF system

M. J. Lagos, P. C. da Silva, D. Ugarte

Nanotechnology research requires the routine use of characterization methods with high spatial resolution. These experiments are rather costly, not only from the point of view of t…

Surface Effects on the Mechanical Elongation of AuCu Nanowires: De-alloying and the Formation of Mixed Suspended Atomic Chains

M. J. Lagos, P. A. S. Autreto, J. Bettini +4

We report here an atomistic study of the mechanical deformation of AuxCu(1-x) atomic-size wires (NWs) by means of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) experimen…

Correlation between Quantum Conductance and Atomic Arrangement of Silver Atomic-Size Nanowires

M. J. Lagos, P. A. S. Autreto, D. S. Galvao +1

We have studied the effect of thermal effects on the structural and transport response of Ag atomic-size nanowires generated by mechanical elongation. Our study involves both time-…
