Specifics of thermodynamic description of nanocrystals

open access: yes, 2013
A method of statistical description of thermodynamic properties of nanocrystals is developed. It is established that size-dependent quantization of vibrational modes results in formation of excess pressure of the phonon gas acting outwards the crystal ...

Probing the size and density of silicon nanocrystals in nanocrystal memory device applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Structural characterization via transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy of arrays of small Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2, important to many device applications, is usually difficult and fails to correctly resolve nanocrystal size ...

Construction of Concave PdAg Nanoshells with Limited Thickness for Efficient Electroxidation of Ethanol

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2021
Noble metal nanocrystals enclosed with curved surfaces are of great benefit for applications in electrocatalysis since the atomic steps and kinks on these facets have higher chemical activity.

Correlation between CdSe QD Synthesis, Post-Synthetic Treatment, and BHJ Hybrid Solar Cell Performance

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2016
In this publication we show that the procedure to synthesize nanocrystals and the post-synthetic nanocrystal ligand sphere treatment have a great influence not only on the immediate performance of hybrid bulk heterojunction solar cells, but also on their

Colloidal Semiconductor Nanocrystals

open access: yes, 2022
In this chapter, we review colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) and their remarkable size-dependent properties. We emphasize on colloidal nanoplatelets and explain how they differ from NCs of other classes.

Spatial and Electronic Manipulation of Silicon Nanocrystals by Atomic Force Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
[As silicon-based devices shnnk, interest is increasing in fast, low-power devices sensitive to small numbers of electrons. Recent work suggests that MOS structures with large arrays of Si nanocrystals comprising a floating gate can be extremely fast ...

Effect of quantum confinement on the dielectric function of PbSe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Monolayers of lead selenide nanocrystals of a few nanometers in height have been made by electrodeposition on a Au(111) substrate. These layers show a thickness-dependent dielectric function, which was determined using spectroscopic ellipsometry.

Sustainable Synthesis of Bio‐Based Magnetic and Conductive Wood for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A wood‐based magnetic and conductive material called Magwood (MW), capable of blocking almost 99.99% of electromagnetic waves (in the X‐band frequency range), is synthesized using a simple, solvent‐free process. MW is lightweight, resists water, and is flame‐retardant, making it a promising alternative for shielding electronics. The rapid proliferation

The Preparation and Microstructure of Nanocrystal 3C-SiC/ZrO2 Bilayer Films

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2017
The nanocrystal 3C-SiC/ZrO2 bilayer films that could be used as the protective coatings of zirconium alloy fuel cladding were prepared on a single-crystal Si substrate.
