We propose an experimentally viable setup for the realization of one-dimensional ultracold atom gases in a nanoscale magnetic waveguide formed by single doubly-clamped suspended carbon nanotubes. We show that all common decoherence and atom…
Two new ultimately thin vanadium rich 2D materials based on VS2 are created via molecular beam epitaxy and investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy and density-functional theory calculations. The…
Organic metal halide hybrids with low-dimensional structures at the molecular level have received great attention recently for their exceptional structural tunability and unique photophysical properties. Here we report for the first time…
An overview is presented of the various phases predicted to occur when gases are absorbed within a bundle of carbon nanotubes. The behavior may be characterized by an effective dimensionality, which depends on the species and the…
The charge transport properties of single superconducting tin nanowires, encapsulated by multiwalled carbon nanotubes have been investigated by multi-probe measurements. The multiwalled carbon nanotube protects the tin nanowire from…
We report the synthesis of a novel isotope engineered $^{13}{\rm C}$--$^{12}{\rm C}$ heteronuclear nanostructure: single-wall carbon nanotubes made of $^{13}{\rm C}$ enriched clusters which are embedded in natural carbon regions. The…
While an increasing number of two-dimensional (2D) materials, including graphene and silicene, have already been realized, others have only been predicted. An interesting example is the two-dimensional form of silicon carbide (2D-SiC).…
The structural and electronic properties of small scandium oxide clusters ScnOm (n = 1 - 3, m = 1 - 2n) are systematically studied within the screened hybrid density functional theory. It is found that the ground states of these scandium…
The Niobium surface is almost always covered by a native oxide layer which greatly influences the performance of superconducting devices. Here we investigate the highly stable Niobium oxide overlayer of Nb(110), which is characterised by…
We present a multispectroscopic structural study of various nanotube samples with different tube diameters. We determine for each sample the mean bundle and tube diameter as well as the tube diameter distribution. The possibility to work on…
CdS nanotubes with wall thickness comparable to excitonic diameter of the bulk material are synthesized by a chemical route. A change in experimental conditions result in formation of nanowires, and well-separated nanoparticles. The…
Colloidal materials of tin(II) sulfide (SnS), as a layered semiconductor with a narrow band gap, are emerging as a potential alternative to the more toxic metal chalcogenides (PbS, PbSe, CdS, CdSe) for various applications such as…
Two dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) at a oxide heterostructures are attracting considerable attention, as these might substitute conventional semiconductors for novel electronic devices [1]. Here we present a minimal set-up for such a…
Single wall carbon nanotubes cooled to cryogenic temperatures are outstanding electronic as well as nano-electromechanical model systems. To probe a largely unperturbed system, we measure a suspended carbon-nanotube device where the…
In this article, we report the results of relatively facile fabrication of carbon nanodots from single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT and MWCNT). The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman measurements…
According to previous interpretations of experimental data, sodium-scandium double-cation borohydride NaSc(BH$_4$)$_4$ crystallizes in the crystallographic space group $Cmcm$ where each sodium (scandium) atom is surrounded by six scandium…
For topological insulators and topological crystalline insulators (TCIs), their exotic surface states are promising for fundamental condensed matter physics research as well as future electronics such as low-dissipation electronics and…
In the latest experimental advances, Ni-, Co- and Cu-HAB MOFs were synthesized in 2D forms, with high electrical conductivities and capacitances as well. Motivated by these experimental advances, we employed first-principles simulations to…
In their tubelike phase, nanowire-adsorbed polymers exhibit strong structural similarities to morphologies known from single-walled carbon (hexagonal) and boron (triangular) nanotubes. Since boron/boron nitride tubes require some disorder…
Edge atomic configuration often plays an important role in dictating the properties of finite-sized two-dimensional (2D) materials. By performing ab initio calculations, we identify a highly stable zigzag edge of phosphorene, which is the…
