Comparison of aluminum oxide empirical potentials from cluster to nanoparticle
Gaétan Laurens, David Amans, Julien Lam +1
Aluminum oxide nanoparticles are increasingly sought in numerous technological applications. However, as the nanoparticles grow during the synthesis, two phase transitions occur. A…
Atomistic Mechanisms for the Nucleation of Aluminium Oxide Nanoparticles
Julien Lam, David Amans, Christophe Dujardin +2
A predictive model for nanoparticle nucleation has not yet been successfully achieved. Classical nucleation theory fails because the atomistic nature of the seed has to be consider…
Autocorrelation analysis for the unbiased determination of power-law exponents in single-quantum-dot blinking
J. Houel, Q. T. Doan, T. Cajgfinger +11
We present an unbiased and robust analysis method for power-law blinking statistics in the photoluminescence of single nano-emitters, allowing us to extract both the bright- and da…
Facile and rapid synthesis of highly luminescent nanoparticles via Pulsed Laser Ablation in Liquid
Gilles Ledoux, David Amans, Christophe Dujardin +1
This paper demonstrates the usefulness of pulsed laser ablation in liquids as a fast screening synthesis method able to prepare even complex compositions at the nanoscale. Nanopart…
Fluorescent oxide nanoparticles adapted to active tips for near-field optics
A. Cuche, B. Masenelli, G. Ledoux +5
We present a new kind of fluorescent oxide nanoparticles with properties well suited to active-tip based near-field optics. These particles with an average diameter in the range 5-…
Higher Order Harmonics of Modulational Instability Induced by Vacuum Fluctuations
David Amans, Edouard Brainis, Serge Massar
We study the higher order harmonics of scalar modulational instability in the regime where it arises spontaneously through amplification of vacuum fluctuations. We obtain detailed…
