The discovery of the C60 fullerene opened new horizons to design carbon nanostructures with targeted electronic structure as well as transport and optical properties. For example, endohedral 12C60 molecules were proposed as candidates for…
We explore the possibility to trap polynitrogen clusters inside C60 fullerene cage, opening a new direction of developing nitrogen-rich high energy materials. We found that a maximum of 13 nitrogen atoms can be encapsulated in a C60 cage.…
Discrete breathers are time-periodic, spatially localized solutions of equations of motion for classical degrees of freedom interacting on a lattice. They come in one-parameter families. We report on studies of energy properties of breather…
Fullerene coalescence experimentally found in fullerene-embedded single-wall nanotubes under electron-beam irradiation or heat treatment is simulated by minimizing the classical action for many atom systems. The dynamical trajectory for…
Hyperpolarized nanoparticles (NPs) offer high polarization levels with room temperature relaxation times exceeding half an hour. In this work, we demonstrate that the achievable hyperpolarization enhancement and relaxation (decay) time at…
Intrinsic Localized Modes (ILM) (or Discrete Breathers, DB) are localized oscillatory modes known to occur in atomic or molecular chains characterized by coupling and/or on-site potential nonlinearity. Quasi-crystals of charged mesoscopic…
Condensed matter is thermodynamically unstable in a vacuum. That is what thermodynamics tells us through the relation showing that condensed matter at temperatures above absolute zero always has non-zero vapour pressure. This instability…
A breathing mode in a Hamiltonian system is a function on the phase space whose evolution is exactly periodic for all solutions of the equations of motion. Such breathing modes are familiar from nonlinear dynamics in harmonic traps or…
At low temperature the photoluminescence of single-wall carbon nanotubes show a large variety of spectral profiles ranging from ultra narrow lines in suspended nanotubes to broad and asymmetrical line-shapes that puzzle the current…
We study a locally resonant granular material in the form of a precompressed Hertzian chain with linear internal resonators. Using an asymptotic reduction, we derive an effective nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) modulation equation. This, in…
Hybrid systems consisting of metal-fullerene composites exhibit intriguing properties but often suffer from thermal instability. With proper control, such instability can be harnessed to enable the formation of sophisticated nanostructures…
We investigate the nonlinear optical response of suspended 1D photonic crystal nanocavities fabricated on a silicon nitride chip. Strong thermo-optical nonlinearities are demonstrated for input powers as low as $2\,\mu\text{W}$ and a…
Using molecular dynamics simulations of a binary Lennard-Jones model of glass-forming liquids, we examine how the decay of the normalized neighbor-persistence function $C_{\rm B}(t)$, which decays from unity at short times to zero at long…
The temperature dependence of the lifetime of the thermally isolated metastable N8 cubane up to its decay into N2 molecules has been calculated by the molecular dynamics method. It has been demonstrated that this dependence significantly…
We study the motion of C60 fullerene molecules (buckyballs) and short-length carbon nanotubes on graphene nanoribbons. We demonstrate that the nanoribbon edge creates an effective potential that keeps the carbon structures on the surface.…
Non-diffusive thermal transport has gained extensive research interest recently due to its important implications on fundamental understanding of material phonon mean free path distributions and many nanoscale energy applications. In this…
In this paper we consider a 2D hexagonal crystal lattice model first proposed by Marin, Eilbeck and Russell in 1998. We perform a detailed numerical study of nonlinear propagating localized modes, that is, propagating discrete breathers and…
We study analytically the dynamics and the micro-structural changes of a host medium caused by a driven tracer particle moving in a confined, quiescent molecular crowding environment. Imitating typical settings of active micro-rheology…
Linear wave equations on flat band networks host compact localized eigenstates (CLS). Nonlinear wave equations on translationally invariant flat band networks can host compact discrete breathers - time periodic and spatially compact…
We explored strong coupling of dynamic breathing modes in one-dimensional (1D) skyrmion lattices periodically arranged in thin-film nanostrips. The coupled breathing modes exhibit characteristic concave-down dispersions that represent the…
