Pinching and Probing of Polygonal Grain Boundaries
Nirjhar Sarkar, Prabhakar R. Bandaru, Robert C. Dynes
In this study, sub-angstrom spatial resolution is achieved in mapping and spectroscopy of atoms and bonds within polygonal grain boundaries (GBs) of graphite using Scanning Tunneli…
Photonic topological insulators a beginner's introduction
Dia'aaldin J. Bisharat, Robert J. Davis, Yun Zhou +2
Control and manipulation of electromagnetic waves has reached a new level with the recent understanding of topological states of matter. These metamaterials have the potential to r…
Confining and channeling sound through coupled resonators
Yun Zhou, Prabhakar R. Bandaru, Daniel F. Sievenpiper
Confining sound is of significant importance for the manipulation and routing acoustic waves. We propose a Helmholtz resonator (HR) based subwavelength sound channel formed at the…
Possibility of obtaining two orders of magnitude larger electrokinetic streaming potentials, through liquid infiltrated surfaces
B. Fan, P. R. Bandaru
A methodology for substantially increasing the magnitude of the electrokinetic streaming potential (Vs) from ~ 0.02 V to as large as ~ 1.6 V is proposed. This is done through deplo…
Topologically protected pseudospins in 2D spring-mass system
Yun Zhou, Prabhakar Bandaru, Daniel Sievenpiper
It is proposed that a lattice, with constituent masses and spring constants, may be considered as a model system for topological matter. For instance, a relative variation of the i…
Enhanced solar evaporation of water from porous media, through capillary mediated forces and surface treatment
F. M. Canbazoglu, B. Fan, A. Kargar +2
The relative influence of the capillary, Marangoni, and hydrophobic forces in mediating the evaporation of water from carbon foam based porous media, in response to incident solar…
