The addition of inorganic spherical nanoparticles to polymers allows the modification of the
polymers physical properties as well as the implementation of new features in the polymer …

This report deals with the mechanism behind the unusual behavior of nanostructures in
mechanical strength, thermal stability, acoustics (lattice dynamics), photonics, electronics …

This review seeks to extend the scope of both the experimental and theoreticalwork carried
out since I completed my 1993 review on the electronic, optical, andto a lesser extent, the …

We report a chemical route to colloidal silicon (Si) nanocrystals, or quantum dots, with widely
tunable average diameter, from less than 3 nm up to 90 nm and peak photoluminescence …

The incorporation of nanoscopic particles into ordered nanostructures afforded by block
copolymers can provide control over particle distribution and orientation. This could enable …

As the most fundamental material for microelectronics, silicon (Si) has bourgeoned in the
past more than half a century. However, given the indirect bandgap of Si, the use of Si in …

Si nanoclusters embedded in SiO 2 have been produced by thermal annealing of SiO x films
prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The structural properties of the …

The correlation between the structural (average size and density) and optoelectronic
properties band gap and photoluminescence (PL) of Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 is …

C-axis oriented Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) films with various thicknesses were deposited on
glass substrate by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. The dependence of crystal …

The microstructural, optical and electrical properties of Si-, Ge-and Sn-implanted silicon
dioxide layers were investigated. It was found, that these layers exhibit strong …
