This study aimed to investigate the antitumor effect of ultrasmall gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), around 3 nm, stabilized by the anionic polysaccharide gum arabic (GA-AuNPs). The focus was downregulation of cancer hallmarks of aggressive…
Confinement has been suggested as a tool to tune the self-assembly properties of nanoparticles, surfactants, polymers and colloids. In this way, we explore the phase diagram of Janus nanoparticles using Molecular Dynamics simulations. The…
We demonstrate here that the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) obtained in micellar solutions are susceptible to the precursor complex nature and specific counterion effects controlling the reaction kinetics, particles size and shape. The tested…
High-Tc superconductivity with possible $T_{c}\approx 80K$ has been reported in the single crystal of $\text{La}_{3}\text{Ni}_{2}\text{O}_{7}$ under high pressure. Based on the electronic structure given from the density functional theory…
Aminopropyl modified mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles, MCM-41 type, have been synthesized by the co-condensation method from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). By means of modifying TEOS/APTES ratio we have…
Optical forces acting on nano-sized particles are typically too small to be useful for particle manipulation. We theoretically and numerically demonstrate a mechanism that can significantly enhance the optical force acting on a small…
We review all symmetry-allowed spin-singlet and spin-triplet superconducting (SC) order parameters in graphene ($s$-wave, $d$-wave, $p$-wave, and $f$-wave) generated by generic onsite, nearest-neighbor (NN), and next-to-nearest-neighbor…
Near-fields around nanophotonic structures and waveguides can be used to optically interface particles ranging from atoms and molecules to microscopic biological and synthetic particles. Due to the strong, non-linear dependence of the…
We present periodic Density Functional Theory calculations of the electronic properties of molecular junctions formed by amine-, and thiol-terminated alkane chains attached to two metal (Au, Ag) electrodes. Based on extensive analysis that…
A new method based on the combination of small-anglescattering, reverse Monte Carlo simulations, and an aggregate recognition algorithm is proposed to characterize the structure of nanoparticle suspensions in solvents and polymer…
We explore the shape and internal structure of diblock copolymer (di-BCP) nanoparticles (NPs) by using the Ginzburg-Landau free-energy expansion. The self-assembly of di-BCP lamellae confined in emulsion droplets can form either ellipsoidal…
We study the plasmonic properties of arrays of atomic chains which comprise noble (Cu, Ag, and Au) and transition (Pd, Pt) metal atoms using time-dependent density-functional theory. We show that the response to the electromagnetic…
The surface behaviour of the pairing gap previously studied for semi-infinite nuclear matter is analyzed in the slab geometry. The gap-shape function is calculated in two cases: (a) pairing with the Gogny force in a hard-wall potential and…
We perform computational investigations of electrolyte-mediated interactions of charged colloidal particles confined within nanochannels. We investigate the role of discrete ion effects, valence, and electrolyte strength on colloid-wall…
We studied the structural and the electronic properties of ionized and neutral small Au clusters via plane wave pseudopotential calculations. All except the anionic heptamer favor one-dimensional zigzag structures or two-dimensional…
We study the strong coupling between photons and atoms that can be achieved in an optical nanofiber geometry when the interaction is dispersive. While the Purcell enhancement factor for spontaneous emission into the guided mode does not…
The AV_nO_{2n+1} mixed valence compounds (n=1, A=Na) are classified as dimerized layered system with strongly interacting d-electrons of vanadium ions. The derived band gaps, energy dispersion relations and density of electronic states are…
The theory of elastic interaction of micron size axially symmetric colloidal particles immersed into confined nematic liquid crystal has been proposed. General formulas are obtained for the self energy of one colloidal particle and…
Au nanoparticles with near perfect monodispersity in shape and size self-assemble, very slowly and at room temperature, on polystyrene films for film thickness < 4R_{g}$, R_{g} being unperturbed polymer gyration radius. Nanoparticle shape…
Physical adsorption of atoms, molecules and clusters on surface is known. It is linked to many phenomena in physics, chemistry, and biology. Usually the studies of adsorption are limited to the particle sizes of up to ~10^2-10^3 atoms.…
