Anatase TiO2 nanowires functionalized by organic sensitizers for solar cells: a screened Coulomb hybrid density functional study
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2015)The adsorption of two different organic molecules cyanidin glucoside (C21O11H20) and TA-St-CA on anatase (101) and (001) nanowires has been investigated using the standard and the range separated hybrid density functional ... -
Atomic strings of group IV, III-V, and II-VI elements
(American Institute of Physics, 2004)A systematic first-principles study of atomic strings made by group IV, III-V, and II-VI elements has revealed interesting mechanical, electronic, and transport properties. The double bond structure underlies their unusual ... -
Changes in the resistance to corrosion of thermally passivated titanium aluminide during exposure to sodium chloride solution
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2015)In this study the surface of Ti-47Al-2Cr (at. %) was modified by heating and exposure to nitrogen gas flow to form a predominantly oxide layer on the surface. Samples were then immersed in Ringer's solution and 3.5 wt. % ... -
Colloidal nanoplatelet/conducting polymer hybrids: excitonic and material properties
(American Chemical Society, 2016)Here we present the first account of conductive polymer/colloidal nanoplatelet hybrids. For this, we developed DEH-PPV-based polymers with two different anchor groups (sulfide and amine) acting as surfactants for CdSe ... -
Comment on "modeling the electrical conduction in DNA nanowires: Charge transfer and lattice fluctuation theories"
(American Physical Society, 2016)In a recent paper [S. Behnia and S. Fathizadeh, Phys. Rev. E 91, 022719 (2015)10.1103/PhysRevE.91.022719] an analytical approach is proposed for the investigation of the conductivity properties of DNA. The authors use mean ... -
Computational modeling of quantum-confined impact ionization in Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2
(2007)Injected carriers from the contacts to delocalized bulk states of the oxide matrix via Fowler-Nordheim tunneling can give rise to quantum-confined impact ionization (QCII) of the nanocrystal (NC) valence electrons. This ... -
Electronic structure of the contact between carbon nanotube and metal electrodes
(American Institute of Physics, 2003)Our first-principles study of the contact between a semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotube ~s-SWNT! and metal electrodes shows that the electronic structure and potential depend strongly on the type of metal. The ... -
Fabrication of supramolecular n/p-nanowires via coassembly of oppositely charged peptide-chromophore systems in aqueous media
(American Chemical Society, 2017-07)Fabrication of supramolecular electroactive materials at the nanoscale with well-defined size, shape, composition, and organization in aqueous medium is a current challenge. Herein we report construction of supramolecular ... -
High-efficiency optical gain in type-II semiconductor nanocrystals of alloyed colloidal quantum wells
