Energetics and diffusion of gold in bismuth telluride

Michael C. Shaughnessy, Josh D. Sugar, Norm C. Bartelt +1

We have coupled electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy experiments with \textit{ab-initio} modeling to study the solubility and diffusion of Au in BiTe. We…

Physical Removal of Metallic Carbon Nanotubes from Nanotube Network Devices Using a Thermal and Fluidic Process

Alexandra C. Ford, Michael Shaughnessy, Bryan M. Wong +6

Electronic and optoelectronic devices based on thin films of carbon nanotubes are currently limited by the presence of metallic nanotubes. Here we present a novel approach based on…

Spintronic properties and stability of the half-Heusler alloys LiMnZ (Z=N, P, Si)

L. Damewood, B. Busemeyer, M. Shaughnessy +3

Li-based half-Heusler alloys have attracted much attention due to their potential applications in optoelectronics and because they carry the possibility of exhibiting large magneti…

First principles studies of a Xe atom adsorbed on Nb(110) surface

S. Dag, M. Shaughnessy, C. Y. Fong +2

We study adsorption sites of a single Xe adatom on Nb(110) surface using a density functional theory approach: The on-top site is the most favorable position for the adsorption. We…

Comparison of two structures for transition-metal-based half Heusler alloys exhibiting fully compensated half metallicity

Michael Shaughnessy, C. Y. Fong, Lin H. Yang +1

We search for new fully compensated half metals, in which only one electronic spin channel is conducting and there exists no net magnetic moment. We focus on half Heusler alloys an…

Origin of large moments in MnSi at small x

Michael Shaughnessy, C. Y. Fong, Ryan Snow +3

Recently, the magnetic moment/Mn, , in MnSi was measured to be 5.0 /Mn, at =0.1%. To understand this observed , we investigate several MnSi m…
