Simulation of Self-Assembly of Quantum Dots in Superlattices
The self-organization of three dimensional quantum dot superlattices that spontaneously form during heteroepitaxial growth is investigated by using a three dimensional kinetic model. The model predictions show that the multilayer arrays of quantum dots can [...]
Texture and Grain Growth in Nanocrystalline Permalloy
The texture evolution accompanied by grain growth was investigated in a nanocrystalline Fe-78wt%Ni alloy, namely permalloy fabricated by using an electrodeposition method. The as-deposited specimen revealed a strong //ND and a weak //ND fibre-type textures. [...]
Hydrodynamics of Carbon Nanotubes Contact Angle and Hydrophobic Hydration
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the hydrophobic-hydrophilic behavior of carbon nanotubes in water. We report contact angles for tube diameters ranging from 25 to 75 and for droplets containing up to 4632 water [...]
Charge Islands Through Tunneling
It has been recently reported that the electrical charge in a semiconductive carbon nanotube is not evenly distributed, but rather it is divided into charge “islands” [1,2]. This paper links the aforementioned phenomenon to tunneling [...]
