Mechanical properties of ceria nanorods and nanochains; The effect of dislocations, grain-boundaries and oriented attachment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We predict that the presence of extended defects can reduce the mechanical strength of a ceria nanorod by 70%. Conversely, the pristine material can deform near its theoretical strength limit.

Zinc oxide-nickel cermet selective coatings obtained by sequential electrodeposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The investigation of pulse electrodepositing modes influence on crystal structure, morphology and optical properties of ZnO has revealed the conditions in which quasi-one-dimensional (1D) ZnO nanorod arrays are formed as separate nanorods.

Broadband Absorption Enhancement in Modified Grating Thin-Film Solar Cell

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
A novel design of a highly efficient modified grating thin-film solar cell (SC) is reported and analyzed using a 3-D finite difference time domain (3-D FDTD) method. The modified grating has side wings and is covered by 1-D silicon nanorods.

Semiconductor Nanorod Liquid Crystals [PDF]

open access: yesNano Letters, 2002
Rodlike molecules form liquid crystalline phases with orientational order and positional disorder. The great majority of materials in which liquid crystalline phases have been observed are comprised of organic molecules or polymers, even though there has been continuing and growing interest in inorganic liquid crystals.
