Plasmonic nanogaps can support confined and enhanced electromagnetic fields. In this work, we use scanning tunneling microscopy-induced light emission (STM-LE) to study the localized surface plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticle superlattices, which consi ...
We present a new method of Ba2MgWO6 single crystal synthesis that allows to grow larger crystals using a BaCl2 and MgCl2 flux. Difficulties to grow single crystals of a size suitable for macroscopic material property measurements caused the majority of cha ...
We show that the IceCube observation of the Galactic neutrino-flux component confirms the hint of detection of neutrinos from the Galactic ridge (the inner part of the Milky Way disk within the Galactic longitude IlI < 30(degrees)), previously reported by ...
The objective of this paper is to investigate a new numerical method for the approximation of the self-diffusion matrix of a tagged particle process defined on a grid. While standard numerical methods make use of long-time averages of empirical means of de ...
Two methods of post-synthetic modification (Suzuki coupling and CuAAC click-reaction) were applied to Ir(iii) complexes Ir((CN)-N-)(2)(NN)-N- to provide the second highly selective donor site. One family of functionalized complexes was used to d ...
The fabrication of high-hardness non-hydrogenated diamond-like carbon (DLC) via standard magnetron sputtering (MS) is often hindered by the low sputtering yields and ionisation rates of carbon, therefore investigations into pulsed alternatives of MS, else ...
This work proposes a new approach to characterize the mechanical properties of nanowires based on a combination of nanomechanical measurements and models. Silicon nanowires with a critical dimension of 90 nm and a length of 8 mu m obtained through a monoli ...
