Multilayered graphene-based membranes are promising for a variety of applications related to ion or molecule transport, such as energy storage and water treatment. However, the complex three-dimensional cascading nanoslit-like structure embedded in the membrane makes it difficult to interpret and ...
Atomistic modeling of Ru nanocluster formation on graphene/Ru (0001): Thermodynamically versus kinetically directed-assembly Atomistic lattice-gas models for thermodynamically and kinetically directed assembly are applied to Ru nanocluster formation on a monolayer of graphene sup...

Graphene oxideMolecular dynamicsREBO-CHOCOMB3CHARMMGraphene-oxide (GO) has been shown to be a promising material for numerous technological applications. Extensive computational work has been devoted to elucidate the structure, stability and properties of different GO species. As some applications require...
% graphene nanoplatelets as well as 1 and 2 vol. % activated nanocarbon were manufactured by a powder metallurgy method. Scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy were used to study the morphology, structure, and distribution of nanocarbon reinforcements in the composite samples.Mining & ...
One of the great theoretical challenges facing physicists is understanding how the tiniest elementary particles give rise to most of the mass in the visible universe.
“The zero-gap structure has two features,” Sivan toldPhysOrg.com. “First, it serves as an effective homogeneous medium, in the sense that it admits all the incidentlight; a standard photonic crystal, with a finite gap, would reflect most of the pulse. Second, the existence of two band...
Female mosquitoes, which can transmit deadly diseases like malaria, dengue fever, West Nile virus and filariasis, are attracted to us by smelling the carbon dioxide we exhale, being capable of tracking us down even from a distance. But once they get close to us, they often steer away toward...
(Phys.org) -- In the natural world, it seems randomness is all around. Walk through a forest for example and it appears completely random, despite the fact that natural patterns emerge at almost every turn. In the human world, randomness is valued by all
