We systematically investigate the magnetophoresis of weakly paramagnetic manganese oxide nanoparticles under nonuniform magnetic fields using a combination of experiments and multiphysics numerical simulations. Experiments were conducted in…
Growing uniform oxides with various thickness on TMDs is one of the biggest challenges to integrate TMDs into complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic circuits. Here, we report a layer-by-layer oxidation of atomically thin MoTe2…
Life on Earth depends upon the dissolution of ionic salts in water, particularly NaCl. However, an atomistic scale understanding of the process remains elusive. Simulations lend themselves conveniently to studying dissolution since they…
This study investigates the catalytic degradation of ground-level ozone on low-index stoichiometric and reduced CeO$_2$ surfaces using first-principles calculations. The presence of oxygen vacancies on the surface enhances the interaction…
The high-pressure synthesized quasi-one-dimensional compounds NaMn$_2$O$_4$ and Li$_{0.92}$Mn$_2$O$_4$ are both antiferromagnetic insulators, and here their atomic and magnetic structures were investigated using neutron powder diffraction.…
This study reports the preparation and characterization of a new family of electrocatalysts (ECs) for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) exhibiting a 'core-shell' morphology. The 'core' consists of graphene sheets, which are covered by a…
Natural oxidation is a common degradation mechanism of both mechanical and electronic properties for most of the new two-dimensional materials. From another perspective, controlled oxidation is an option to tune material properties,…
We have measured total absolute cross sections for the Mutual Neutralization (MN) of O- with O+/N+. A fine resolution (of about 50 meV) in the kinetic energy spectra of the product neutral atoms allows unique identification of the atomic…
Zn nanoclusters (NCs) are deposited by Low-energy cluster beam deposition technique. The mechanism of oxidation is studied by analysing their compositional and morphological evolution over a long span of time (three years) due to exposure…
