The viscosity of oxygen-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube (O-MWCNT) nanofluids was measured for concentrations from 0.1 to 10 ppm under conditions of 0 to 30 MPag pressures and 0 to 10 C temperatures. The presence of O-MWCNTs did…
Local microstructural heterogeneities of elastic metamaterials give rise to non-local macroscopic cross-coupling between stress-strain and momentum-velocity, known as Willis coupling. Recent advances have revealed that symmetry breaking in…
This paper reports an effective method of stabilizing ultrathin Silver (Ag) films on substrates using a filler metal (Zn). Ag films with a thickness < 15 nm were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering above a Zn filler metal on glass, quartz,…
The spatially precise integration of arrays of micro-patterned two-dimensional (2D) crystals onto three-dimensionally structured Si/SiO$_2$ substrates represents an attractive strategy towards the low-cost system-on-chip integration of…
Interface impedes heat flow in heterostructures and the interfacial thermal resistance (ITR) has become a critical issue for thermal dissipation in electronic devices. To explore the mechanism leading to the ITR, in this work, the dynamic…
Time-reflection is a uniform inversion of the temporal evolution of a signal, which arises when an abrupt change in the properties of the host material occurs uniformly in space. At such a time-interface, a portion of the input signal is…
Reconfigurable reflectors have a significant potential in future telecommunication systems, and approaches to the design and realization of full and tunable reflection control are now actively studied. Reflectarrays, being the classical…
An acoustic plasmonic mode in a graphene-dielectric-metal heterostructure has recently been spotlighted as a superior platform for strong light-matter interaction. It originates from the coupling of graphene plasmon with its mirror image…
Two dimensional van der Waals heterostructures (2D are of significant interest due to their intriguing physical properties that are critically defined by the constituent monolayers and their interlayer coupling . However, typical inorganic…
Biological neurons are electro-mechanical systems, where the generation and propagation of an action potential is coupled to generation and transmission of an acoustic wave. Neuristors, such as VO2, characterized by insulator-metal…
Traceability of precision instrument and measuring method is the core issue in metrology science. In the field of nanometer length measurement, the laser interferometers are usually used to trace the measurement value to the laser…
Fermi-level pinning (FLP) effect was widely observed in thin-film transistors (TFTs) with van der Waals (vdW) layered semiconductors (organic or two-dimensional) when contact electrodes were thermally evaporated1-3. Intensive investigation…
To address the challenge of conflicting traffic flows that complete on opposing cycle times in a specific phase of the traffic light, we proposed a novel decentralized traffic light control methodology based on the identification of the…
Reduced-dimensional CsPbBr$_3$ nanoplatelets (NPLs) are promising candidates for color-saturated blue emitters, yet their electroluminescence performance is hampered by non-radiative recombination, which is associated with bromine…
The aim of this experimental research is to investigate the effect of different alkali solutions, their different concentration, and the soaking time on tensile strength of bamboo fiber bundles. The results of this research will suggest the…
The understanding of glassy dynamics above the devitrification temperature of a glass remains poorly understood. Here, we use real-time AFM imaging to build a spatio-temporal map of the relaxation dynamics of a highly stable glass into its…
Photovoltaics (PV) is the most important energy conversion technology for cost-efficient climate change mitigation. To reach the international climate goals, the annual PV module production capacity must be expanded to multi-terawatt scale.…
We investigate the response of the micromechanical field-effect transistors (MMFETs) to the impinging terahertz (THz) signals. The MMFET uses the microcantilevers MC as a mechanically floating gate and the movable mirror of the Michelson…
Weighing particles above MegaDalton mass range has been a persistent challenge in commercial mass spectrometry. Recently, nanoelectromechanical systems-based mass spectrometry (NEMS-MS) has shown remarkable performance in this mass range,…
Metamaterials are structures engineered at a small scale with respect to the wavelength of the excitations they interact with. These structures behave as artificial materials whose properties can be chosen by design, mocking and even…
