Particle plasmons in metal nanoparticles have primarily been investigated through the use of local optical response approximations. However, as nanoparticle size approaches the average distance of electrons to the metal surface, mesoscopic…
The influence of the crystal structure inhomogeneities on the magnetic properties of cobalt nanoparticles with different aspect ratio and spherical nanoparticles of chromium dioxide, cobalt ferrite and magnetite has been studied by means of…
We show that second harmonic generation can be enhanced by Fano resonant coupling of asymmetric plasmonic metal nanostructures. We develop a theoretical model examining the effects of electromagnetic interaction between two metal…
We address the fabrication of nano-architectures by impacting thin layers of amorphous Ge deposited on SiO$_{2}$ with a Ga$^{+}$ ion beam and investigate the structural and optical properties of the resulting patterns. By adjusting beam…
Global minimum potential energy state can be very challenging to locate in a relatively large atomistic system. Our present work investigates this problem using an example of gold nanoclusters, Au10, Au20, Au30, Au50. Nanoscale gold…
The electronic structures of a variety of experimentally identified gold and silver nanoclusters from 20 to 246 atoms, either unprotected or protected by several types of ligands, are characterized by using point group specific symmetry…
Investigating nanoplasmonics using time-dependent approaches permits shedding light on the dynamic optical properties of plasmonic structures, which are intrinsically connected with their potential applications in photochemistry and…
Results from proton-proton ($pp$) collisions have routinely been used as a baseline to analyze and understand the production of QCD matter expected to be produced in nuclear collisions. But recent studies of small systems formed in $pp$…
This article is a continuation of our previous studies of the frictional anisotropy of metal nanoparticles on the surface of a graphene substrate for other temperature conditions. The friction force acting on palladium nanoparticles on a…
The electronic structure and optical properties of metallic nanoshells are investigated using a jellium model and the Time Dependent Local Density Approximation (TDLDA). An efficient numerical implementation enables applications to…
A predictive model for nanoparticle nucleation has not yet been successfully achieved. Classical nucleation theory fails because the atomistic nature of the seed has to be considered since geometrical structure as well as stoichiometry do…
We computationally investigate the wave propagation characteristics of nanoscopic granular crystals composed of one-dimensionally arrayed gold nanoparticles using molecular dynamics simulation. We examine two basic configurations, i.e.…
Noble metal nanoparticles show specific optical properties due to the excitation of localized surface plasmons that make them attractive candidates for highly sensitive bionanosensors. The underlying physical principle is either an…
One of the challenges of the proteomic analysis by 2D-gel is to visualize the low abundance proteins, particularly those localized in organelles. An additional problem with nuclear proteins lies in their strong interaction with nuclear…
We derive the general form of the non-trivial geometric phase resulting from the unique combination of point group and time reversal symmetries. This phase arises e.g. when a magnetic adatom is adsorbed on a non-magnetic C$_n$ crystal…
The conductance of breaking metallic nanojunctions shows plateaus alternated with sudden jumps, corresponding to the stretching of stable atomic configurations and atomic rearrangements, respectively. We investigate the structure of the…
UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy is frequently used to characterize the size and shape of gold nanoparticles. We present a full-spectrum model that yields reliable results for the commonly encountered case of mixtures of spheres and rods in…
The quantitative phase-field approach has been adapted to model solidification in the presence of Metal Matrix Nanocomposites (MMNCs) in a single-component liquid. Nanoparticles of fixed size and shape are represented by additional fields.…

Plasmon resonances are known to amplify the electromagnetic fields near metallic nanostructures. Therefore, they are considered to provide a promising scheme to generate extreme-ultraviolet harmonics, using low power drivings. During…
