Copper tetracyanoquinodimethane (CuTCNQ) has been investigated around 40 years as a
representative bistable material. Meanwhile, micro/nanostructures of CuTCNQ is considered …

The electronic and structural properties of hexagonal boron nitride (BN) were studied using
density functional theory calculations. Three different approximations for the exchange …

This work reports the synthesis of Ni nanocones by a one-step electrodeposition method
without any template. With the addition of ethylenediamine dihydrochloride (EDA· 2HCl) in …

We investigate the stability of boron nitride conical sheets of nanometer size, using first-
principles calculations. Our results indicate that cones with an antiphase boundary (a line …

Single-crystalline SnO2 nanocones with an average 1.0 μm in length and 100− 500 nm in
root size and their self-assembly morphologies were obtained through a solvothermal …

We investigate the relative stability of several BCN structures with 32-atoms unit cell using
first-principles calculations. The compounds have the topology of a graphite layer with …

The electrical response of boron nitride nanocones (BNNCs) to 5-Fluorouracil (5FU) drug
was investigated by first-principle density functional theory (DFT). The adsorption of 5FU …

We report on the synthesis of nanostructured and crystalline tapered Si and Ge polyhedra
via metal-catalyzed chemical vapor deposition. These Si and Ge nanocones (SiNCs …

The first-principles density-functional theory is used to study the geometrical structures and
field emission properties of different boron nitride nanocones with 240∘ disclination. It is …

Periodic spindle-unit boron nitride (BN) nanotubes with buglelike open-end tips have been
found in the product by nitriding Fe-B nanoparticles at 1100° C with a mixture of nitrogen …
