On the broadening of the magnetic entropy change due to Curie temperature distribution
(2014-05)
"We have studied the correlation between the broadening of the isothermal magnetic entropy change and the Curie temperature (T-C) distribution in nanostructured Pr2Fe17 and Nd2Fe17 alloys produced by high-energy ball-milling ...
Magnetocaloric effect in the low hysteresis Ni-Mn-In metamagnetic shape-memory Heusler alloy
(2014-05)
"We have studied magnetocaloric properties of a Ni-Mn-In metamagnetic shape-memory alloy especially designed in order to display low thermal hysteresis. Magnetization and calorimetric measurements under a magnetic field ...
Temperature dependence of sensors based on silver-decorated nitrogen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotubes
(2016)
"Vapor sensors are easily fabricated onto alumina substrates using foils of silver-decorated nitrogen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNX-MWNTs-Ag) as active sensing material. The vapor sensors are tested using carbon ...
Hybridization vs. bond stretching isomerism in Ru(II) cyclometalated complexes of 2-phenylpyridine
(MDPI, 2012-01)
"The phenomenon of formation of two isomers, yellow and orange, of the cyclometalated Ru(II) complex, [Ru(o-C6H4-py)(MeCN)4]+, was investigated by EELS spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. Both forms show very similar ...
Recrystallization of a Ti-45Ni-5Cu cold-worked shape memory alloy characterized by thermoelectric power and electrical properties
(2014)
"The recrystallization of a cold-worked shape memory alloy (SMA) without R-phase transition, i.e. the Ti-45.0Ni-5.0Cu (% at.), has been studied by thermoelectric power (TEP) technique and electrical resistivity change (Dρ) ...
Microstructure and composition design of magnetic Ni-Mn-Sn Co-sputter deposited films
(2015)
"In this work, we study the effect of the substrate temperature (ST) during sputter-deposition as well as co-sputtering deposition on the fabrication of nanostructured Ni-Mn-Sn thin films. Sputtered films show Mn losses ...
Visualizing individual microtubules by bright field microscopy
(2010-11)
"Microtubules are slender (similar to 25 nm diameter), filamentous polymers involved in cellular structure and organization. Individual microtubules have been visualized via fluorescence imaging of dye-labeled tubulin ...
Covalently bonded three-dimensional carbon nanotube solids via boron induced nanojunctions
(2012)
"The establishment of covalent junctions between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the modification of their straight tubular morphology are two strategies needed to successfully synthesize nanotube-based three-dimensional (3D) ...
Expanded use of a fast photography technique to characterize laser-induced plasma plumes
(2014-06)
"Expanded use of fast photography is proposed to characterize laser ablation plasma plumes by the analysis of a set of photographs by means of appropriate mathematical algorithms. The laser ablation plasma plumes studied ...
Electron transport study on functionalized armchair graphene nanoribbons: DFT calculations
(2016)
"Quantum transport studies are performed on doped and functionalized 8- and 11-armchair graphene nanoribbons (aGNRs) by means of density functional theory. Substitutional doping is performed by introducing boron, nitrogen, ...
