We carried out a joint analysis of the INS, DRIFT, and XPS spectra of a set of sp2 amorphous carbons of the highest carbonization rank representing natural substances (shungite carbon, anthraxolite, and anthracite), technical graphenes…
Recently suggested new concept of shungite (Int. J. Smart Nano Mat. DOI: 10.1080/19475411.2014.885913) exhibits this carboneous raw material as a multi-level fractal structure of nanosize fragments of reduced graphene oxide (rGO). In view…
The approach based on selected set of samples and selected set of analytical tools occurred quite efficient when applying to amorphous carbons thus leading to a transformation of the current representation of the issue based on particulars…
A method is suggested for estimation of structural properties of amorphous fullerene and its derivatives produced by vacuum annealing. The method is based on the fitting of the neutron or x-ray powder diffraction patterns for scattering…
The paper presents a cooperative consideration of Raman spectra of $^2$ amorphous carbons as well as the nature and type of their amorphicity. The latter was attributed to the amorphization of a new type named as enforced fragmentation. The…
We outline a strategy for quantitatively evaluating the conformational characteristics of self-assembled structures using the techniques of contrast variation small angle neutron scattering. By means of basis function expansion, a case…
The vortex matter in bulk type-II superconductors serves as a prototype system for studying the random pinning problem in condensed matter physics. Since the vortex lattice is embedded in an atomic lattice, small angle neutron scattering…
The Sudden Approximation is applied to invert structural data on randomly corrugated surfaces from inert atom scattering intensities. Several expressions relating experimental observables to surface statistical features are derived. The…
Intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon films can provide outstanding surface passivation of crystalline silicon wafer surfaces. This quality of Intrinsic hydrogenated amorphous silicon makes it valuable in heterojunction with intrinsic…
While crystalline two-dimensional materials have become an experimental reality during the past few years, an amorphous 2-D material has not been reported before. Here, using electron irradiation we create an sp2-hybridized one-atom-thick…
We study the aggregation of carbon allotrope nanofillers in the matrix of isotactic polypropylene with direct small-angle neutron scattering measurements. With the ATSAS software, we analyzed the data and determined the fractal shape,…
Ion Beam Sputtering (IBS) is a cost-effective technique able to produce ordered nanopatterns on the surfaces of different materials. To date, most theoretical studies of this process have focused on systems which become amorphous under…
By means of ab initio calculations we investigate the possibility of existence of a boron nitride (BN) porous two-dimensional nanosheet which is geometrically similar to the carbon allotrope known as biphenylene carbon. The proposed…
Following a demonstration of how neutron diffraction with polarization analysis may be applied for the accurate determination of the coherent static structure factor of disordered materials containing substantial amounts of proton nuclei…
The composition of Solar System surfaces can be inferred through reflectance and emission spectroscopy, by comparing these observations to laboratory measurements and radiative transfer models. While several populations of objects appear to…
Due to their large coherent scattering cross section, diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) are considered as a promising candidate material for a new neutron reflector. For investigation of scattering cross sections of packed samples, we have…
We carried out room-temperature far-infrared (40--650~cm$^{-1}$) transmission measurements on undoped and bromine-doped powder samples of carbon nanofibers in stacked-cup cone geometry. The transmission spectra of both doped and undoped…
Bulk amorphous materials have been studied extensively and are widely used, yet their atomic arrangement remains an open issue. Although they are generally believed to be Zachariasen continuous random networks, recent experimental evidence…
The electronic structure and functionality of 2D materials is highly sensitive to structural morphology, opening the possibility for manipulating material properties, but also making predictable and reproducible functionality challenging.…
In the quest to understand the formation of the building blocks of life, amorphous solid water (ASW) is one of the most widely studied molecular systems. Indeed, ASW is ubiquitous in the cold interstellar medium (ISM), where ASW-coated dust…
