Periodically corrugated epitaxial graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) on metallic substrates are considered as perspective templates for the self-assembly of nanoparticles arrays. By using first-principles calculations, we determine binding energie ...
We study a system of heteronuclear molecules on a triangular lattice and analyze the potential of this system for the experimental realization of a supersolid phase. The ground state phase diagram contains superfluid, solid, and supersolid phases. At finit ...
Two of the most widely used methods for the fatigue life prediction of composite materials under variable amplitude (VA) loading patterns are presented in this chapter. The first method is based on the theoretical formulation and use of a damage summation ...
We investigate the structural, dynamical, and rheological properties of colloid-polymer mixtures in a volume fraction range of φ=0.15-0.35. Our systems are density-matched, residual charges are screened, and the polymer-colloid size ratio is ∼0.37. For the ...
This work presents the experimental measurement of the extraction lengths of individual guided modes of embedded photonic-crystal (PhC) light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which corroborates its superior guided light extraction compared to surface PhC LEDs. Whil ...
Recombinant polypeptide containing the 260-466 amino acid sequence of West Nile virus (WNV) strain LEIV-Vlg99-27889-human glycoprotein E (gpE, E260-466) was constructed. Immunochemical similarity between the E260-466 and gpE of WNV was proven by enzyme imm ...
Simulation of the coherent dynamics of a large lattice of strongly coupled nuclear spins is demonstrated. The evolution of N spins is simulated in a reduced Liouville space X which excludes coherences involving more than k spins, where k < N is chosen to ...
We present angle-resolved photoemission experiments on 1T-TiSe2 at temperatures ranging from 13K to 288K. The data evidence a dramatic renormalization of the conduction band below 100K, whose origin can be related to the new potential responsible for the c ...
Heavy partners of the top quark are a common prediction of many models in which a new strongly-coupled sector is responsible for the breaking of the electroweak symmetry. In this paper, we investigate their experimental signature at the LHC, focusing on th ...
The combination of the topographic resolution of Scanning Probe Microscopy with the subwavelength information of light/matter interaction leads to a new instrument called Scanning Near-field Optical Microscope (SNOM). This new instrument is an ideal tool t ...
