    Ultrabright and monochromatic nanowire electron sources

    The resolution of the electron microscope is now largely limited by the performance of its electron source when various aberrations in the electron imaging system, especially spherical aberrations, are correct...

    Nano-Flower MnO2 Coated Graphene Composite Electrodes for Energy Storage Devices

    Graphene, two-dimensional layers of sp2-bonded carbon, has many unique properties. In this paper, graphene is decorated with flower-like MnO2 nanostructures for the application in energy storage devices. The as-p...

    Electrical Resistance of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes with Determined Chiral Indices

    The properties of a carbon nanotube (CNT), in particular a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT), are highly sensitive to the atomic structure of the nanotube described by its chirality (chiral indices). We have ...

    LaB6 Nanowires and Their Field Emission Properties

    For field-induced electron emission, the two factors that enable a high emission current density at low applied voltages are (a) low work function of the emitter and (b) sharpness of the emitter tip. We have d...

    Twisting of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Bundles

    Bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes produced by laser ablation are often seen twisted in morphology, forming nanoropes which would better suit the function for improvement of structural stability in mech...

    Morphology and Electron Emission Properties of Nanocrystalline CVD Diamond Thin Films

    Nanocrystalline diamond thin films have been produced by microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (MPECVD) using C60/Ar/H2 or CH4/Ar/H2 plasmas. Films grown with H2 concentration ≤ 20% are nanocrystall...
