We present measurements of the dissipation and frequency shift in nanomechanical gold resonators at temperatures down to 10 mK. The resonators were fabricated as doubly-clamped beams above a GaAs substrate and actuated magnetomotively.…
Combined gold and silicon nano-system has spurred tremendous interest in the scientific community due to its application in different metal-semiconductor electronic devices and solar driven water splitting cells. Silicon, fabricated on gold…
A multiscale studying integrating ab initio quantum mechanics, classical molecular dynamics and two-temperature model, is carried out to study film thickness dependent femtosecond laser spallation and ablation. As an interval of 130.73 nm,…
Enhanced transmissions through a gold film with arrays of subwavelength holes are theoretically studied, employing the rigid full vectorial three dimensional finite difference time domain method. Influence of air-holes shape to the…
Though significant advances have been made in the field of metal nanostructures, researchers are yet to synthesize one atom thin two-dimensional 2D gold nanostructures. We report, for the first time, a technique to synthesize one atom thin…
We theoretically investigate the heating rate and spin flip lifetimes due to near field noise for atoms trapped close to layered superconducting structures. In particular, we compare the case of a gold layer deposited above a superconductor…
By combining galaxy tracers from high-resolution N-body and hydrodynamical simulations, we present a consistent picture of the behaviour of galaxy velocities in massive clusters. In haloes above ~ 10^14 Msun, the brightest satellite…
Due to local field enhancement and subwavelength confinements, nano-plasmonics provide numerous novel applications. Simultaneously, as an efficient nanoscale heat generator from inherent absorption, thermo-plasmonics is emerging as an…
Carrier dynamics in metallic nanostructures is strongly influenced by their confining dimensions. Gold nanoparticles of size $\sim 2$ nm lie at the boundary separating metallic and non-metallic behavior. In this work, we report carrier…
We study the spreading of droplets in a near-critical phase-separated liquid mixture, using a combination of experiments, lubrication theory and finite-element numerical simulations. The classical Tanner's law describing the spreading of…
Hole formation in a polycrystalline Ni film on an $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$ substrate coupled with a continuum diffusion analysis demonstrates that Ni diffusion along the Ni/$\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$ interface is surprisingly fast. Ab initio…
A large number (~10,000) of uniform stainless steel balls comprising less than one layer coverage on a vertically shaken plate provides a rich system for the study of excited granular media. Viewed from above, the horizontal motion in the…
Previous research has shown that gold nanoparticles immersed in water in an optical vortex lattice formed by the perpendicular intersection of two standing light waves with a \pi/2 rad phase difference will experience enhanced dispersion…
Understanding the solidification dynamics of impacted water droplets is fundamental and crucial for applications, especially with the presence of frost and salt. Here, we experimentally investigate the spreading and freezing dynamics of…
The sensitivity of a gold-silver bilayer system for gas detection was investigated using angle-fixed reflectance measurements and numerical calculations based on the transfer-matrix method. Two configurations of bilayer systems were…
Quantitative density measurements from electron scattering show that shear bands in deformed Al_{88}Y_{7}Fe_{5} metallic glass exhibit alternating high and low density regions, ranging from -9 % to +6 % relative to the un-deformed matrix.…
Regular arrays of metal nanoparticles on metal films have tuneable optical resonances that can be applied for surface enhanced Raman scattering or biosensing. With the aim of developing more surface selective geometries we investigate…
The kinetic energy distributions of photo-electrons emitted from gold surfaces under illumination by UV-light close to the threshold are measured and analyzed. Samples are prepared as chemically clean through Ar-Ion sputtering and then…
We have investigated the non-classical response of solid 4He confined in porous gold set to torsional oscillation. When solid helium is grown rapidly, nearly 7% of the solid helium appears to be decoupled from the oscillation below about…
The morphological evolution of nanoporous gold is generally believed to be governed by surface diffusion. This work specifically explores the dependence of mass transport by surface diffusion on the curvature of a gold surface. The surface…
