We present magnetotransport measurements on freely suspended two-dimensional electron gases from AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures. The technique to realize such devices relies on a specially MBE grown GaAs/AlGaAs-heterostructure including a…
We have compared the ground-state energy of several observed or proposed " 2 \sqrt{2} x 2 \sqrt{2} oxygen (O) ordered superstructures " (from now on HS), with those of "chain superstructures" (CS) (in which the O atoms of the basal plane…
There is considerable interest in the use of heavy atom nanoparticles as theranostic contrast agents due to their high radiation cross-section compared to soft tissue. However, published studies have primarily focused on applications of…
Hot electrons and holes generated from the decay of localized surface plasmons in metallic nanoparticles can be harnessed for applications in solar energy conversion and sensing. In this paper, we study the generation of hot carriers in…
A multi-band effective-mass Hamiltonian is derived for lattice-matched semiconductor nanostructures in a slowly varying external magnetic field. The theory is derived from the first-principles magnetic-field coupling Hamiltonian of Pickard…
Electron densities at the edge site in one-dimensional Hubbard model and t-J model are studied by using the Bethe ansatz solutions and exact diagonalization method. It is found that the boundary is electron-attractive, or equivalently…
We report on the structural properties of mixed aggregates made from rare-earth inorganic nanoparticles (radius 20 Angstroms) and polyelectrolyte-neutral block copolymers in aqueous solutions. Using scattering experiments and Monte Carlo…
We analyze the properties of particles trapped in three-dimensional potentials formed from superimposed Gaussian beams, fully taking into account effects of potential anharmonicity and non-separability. Although these effects are negligible…
Many low-density nanoparticles show a radial inner structure. This work proposes a novel approach to contrast variation with SAXS based on the constitution of a solvent density gradient in a glass capillary in order to resolve this internal…
A procedure to obtain single-electron wavefunctions within the tight-binding formalism is proposed. It is based on linear combinations of Slater-type orbitals whose screening coefficients are extracted from the optical matrix elements of…
Nowadays, magnetoresponsive soft materials, based not simply on magnetic nanoparticles, but rather on multiple components with distinct sizes and magnetic properties, both in liquid and polymeric carriers, are becoming more and more…
We present a simple model to describe the lowest-subbands surface scattering in locally oxidized silicon nanowires grown in the [110] direction. To this end, we employ an atomistically scaled effective mass model projected from a…
Carrier mobility in bulk semiconductors is typically governed by electron-phonon (e-ph) scattering. In nanostructures, spatial confinement can lead to significant surface scattering, lowering mobility and breaking the spatial homogeneity…
Current effective medium theories for nano-shells are reviewed. A new method for calculating the effective dielectric function of a core-shell nanoparticle is presented and compared with existing theories showing clear advantages in most…
Heavy fermion systems, traditionally realized in rare-earth compounds with limited tunability, have hindered systematic exploration of correlated quantum phenomena. Here, we introduce a general strategy for engineering heavy fermions in…
The Hamiltonian for a particle constrained to move on the surface of a curved nanotube is derived using the methods of differential forms. A two-dimensional Gram-Schmidt orthonormalization procedure is employed to calculate basis functions…
Electrostatic properties and stability of charged virus-like nano-shells are examined in ionic solutions with monovalent and multivalent ions. A theoretical model based on a thin charged spherical shell and multivalent ions within the…
We present a theory for carrier transport in semiconducting nanoscale heterostructures that emphasizes the effects of strain at the interface between two different crystal structures. An exactly solvable model shows that the interface…
These short notes present to the reader (students, in particular) a concise approach to the derivation of the propagator of Hamiltonians with position-dependent kinetic energy. The formalism is applied to the von Roos Hamiltonian with…
We identify qualitative trends in the stacking sequence dependence of carrier-carrier interaction phenomena in multilayer graphene. Our theory is based on a new approach which explicitly exhibits the important role in interaction phenomena…
