Effect of graphene layer on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and the sensitivity in periodic nanostructure

Mohamed El Barghouti, Abdellatif Akjouj, Abdellah Mir

We study the interaction of gold nanoparticles with a graphene film. Graphene is used as a spacer, as thin as possible, between the gold nanoparticles and the detection dielectric medium, and one of the advantages of graphene is to protect the structure, which allows to avoid the oxidation of…

Novel three-dimensional carbon nanotube networks as high performance thermal interface materials

Qinyu Kong, Laurence Bodelot, Bérengère Lebental, Yu Dian Lim, Li Lynn Shiau, Boris Gusarov, Chong Wei Tan, Kun Liang, Congxiang Lu, Chuan Seng Tan, Philippe Coquet, Beng Kang Tay

Vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) arrays are considered as promising thermal interface materials (TIMs) due to their superior out-of-plane thermal conductivities. However the air gaps between adjacent CNTs within the CNT array hinder the in-plane heat transfer, thus significantly degrading…

Two-dimensional Rutherford-like scattering in ballistic nanodevices

S. Toussaint, B. Brun, S. Faniel, L. Desplanque, X. Wallart, V. Bayot, B. Hackens

Ballistic injection in a nanodevice is a complex process where electrons can be either transmitted or reflected, thereby introducing deviations from the otherwise quantized conductance. In this context, quantum rings (QRs) appear as model geometries: in a semiclassical view, most electrons bounce…

Dynamical effective parameters of elastic superlattice with strong acoustic contrast between the constituents

Yurii Zubov, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, Arkadii Krokhin

Analytical formulas are obtained for frequency-dependent effective elastic modulus and effective mass density for a periodic layered structure. The proposed homogenization procedure is valid at sufficiently high frequencies well above the lowest band gap in the acoustic spectrum of the structure.…

Aqueous medium-induced micropore formation in plasma polymerized polystyrene: an effective route to inhibit bacteria adhesion

Roxana Jijie, Alexandre Barras, Teodora Teslaru, Ionut Topala, Valentin Pohoata, Marius Dobromir, Tetiana Dumych, Julie Bouckaert, Sabine Szunerits, Nicoleta Dumitrascu, Rabah Boukherroub

Plasma polymerized styrene (pPS) films were successfully synthesized by means of an atmospheric pressure plasma technique, using a mixture of argon gas and styrene vapor. The morphology and film thickness of the pPS films, deposited on 1 min argon plasma pre-treated glass substrates, were smooth…

When is a surface foam-phobic or foam-philic?

Miguel Teixeira, S. Arscott, Simon Cox, Paulo Teixeira

By integrating the Young-Laplace equation, including the effects of gravity, we have calculated the equilibrium shape of the two-dimensional Plateau borders along which a vertical soap film contacts two flat, horizontal solid substrates of given wettability. We show that the Plateau borders, where…

Effect of cobalt addition on the corrosion behavior of near equiatomic NiTi shape memory alloy in normal saline solution: electrochemical and XPS studies

Nawal Alqarni, Joanna Wysocka, Nader El-Bagoury, Jacek Ryl, Mohammed Amin, Rabah Boukherroub

The electrochemical and corrosion (uniform and localized) behavior of a binary Ni52Ti48 shape memory alloy (SMA) and two ternary Ni52Ti48−xCox (x = 1.5 and 4.0 wt%) SMAs were studied. Measurements were conducted in 0.9% NaCl solution at 37 °C employing various electrochemical methods. These include…

On Doubly selective Channel Estimation for FBMC-OQAM using the LMMSE Filter for Future Railway Communications

Michel Saideh, Marion Berbineau, Iyad Dayoub

Filter Bank Multi Carrier (FBMC) based waveforms received recently a lot of interest due to their high frequency localization and hence their suitability to the fragmented spectrum utilization. In this paper, we analyze the doubly selective channel estimation aspect of the FBMC-OQAM waveform. We…
