Using a diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) technique, we calculated the phase diagrams of $^4$He and H$_2$ adsorbed on a single (5,5) carbon nanotube, one of the narrowest that can be obtained experimentally. For a single monolayer, when the…
A method of growing mushroom or shell like nanostructured metal convex concave models has been worked out. Silver,copper,nickel,rhodium and Pd-Ni,Pd-Co alloy structures are reproduced as a result of self-assembly of nanowires growing on…
The recently developed two-stage growth model of synthesis of monodispersed polycrystalline colloidal particles is utilized and improved to explain growth of uniform cadmium sulfide spheres. The model accounts for the coupled processes of…
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides MX2 (M = Mo, W, X = S, Se, Te) attracts enormous research interests in recent years. Its 2H phase possesses an indirect to direct bandgap transition in 2D limit, and thus shows great…
Molecular dynamics simulations are utilized to study the melting transition in pentane (C5H12) and heptane (C7H16), physisorbed onto the basal plane of graphite at near-monolayer coverages. Through use of the newest, optimized version of…
Vanadium dichalcogenides have attracted increasing interests for the charge density wave phenomena and possible ferromagnetism. Here, we report on the multiphase behavior and gap opening in monolayer VTe2 grown by molecular beam epitaxy.…
The current miniaturization of electronic devices raises many questions about the properties of various materials at nanometre-scales. Recent molecular dynamics computer simulations have shown that small finite nanowires of gold exist as…
VSe$_2$ is a highly promising van der Waals (vdW) material for applications in electronics, spintronics, and optoelectronics. Here, we report single crystal growth of 1T-VSe$_2$ by flux method using eutectic of NaCl/KCl molten salt. The…
Applying ac voltages, we trapped gold nanoparticles between microfabricated electrodes under well-defined conditions. We demonstrate that the nanoparticles can be controllably fused together to form homogeneous gold nanowires with…
Understanding the mechanisms involved in chemical vapour deposition (CVD) synthesis of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) requires the precise control of numerous growth parameters. All the proposed mechanisms and…
Entropy effects substantially modify the growth of self-assembled Ge nanostructures on vicinal Si (001) surfaces. As shown by variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy, this leads to new types of one dimensional nanostructures that…
GaAs nanowires were grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on evaporated metal films (Au, Au / Pd, Ag, Ni, Ga, Cu, Al, Ti). The samples were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM).…
CdTe has been a special semiconductor for constructing the lowest-cost solar cells and the CdTe-based Cd1-xZnxTe alloy has been the leading semiconductor for radiation detection applications. The performance currently achieved for the…
We propose a dual-adatom diffusion-limited model for the growth of compound semiconductor nanowires via the vapor-liquid-solid or the vapour-solid-solid mechanisms. The growth is catalyzed either by a liquid or a solid nanoparticle. We…
Atomically thin materials exhibit electronic and optical properties distinct from their three-dimensional counterparts. For metals, particularly gold, monolayer studies remain largely unexplored due to fabrication and characterisation…
Metal atoms and small clusters introduced into superfluid helium (He II) concentrate there in quantized vortices to form (by further coagulation) the thin nanowires. The nanowires' thickness and structure are well predicted by a…
The phase separation mechanism of a binary liquid mixture off-critically quenched in its miscibility gap is nucleation and growth, its homogeneous phase reaching a metastable equilibrium state. The successive stages of growth of the…
In this work, we perform a follow-up and comprehensive study on the structural details and formation mechanism of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) synthesized one-dimensional (1D) van der Waals heterostructures. Edge structures, nucleation…
It has been experimentally established in numerous cases that precipitation of monodispersed colloids from homogeneous solutions is a complex process. Specifically, it was found that in many systems nuclei, produced rapidly in a…
