Surface Layers at the Polarized Liquid/Liquid Interfaces

Freestanding Ultrathin Nanoparticle Membranes Assembled at Transient LiquidLiquid Interfaces

(please note that in this context, we defi ne as membrane any freestanding thin layer, regardless of selective mass-transport properties). These approaches rely on the possibility of NPs to adsorb and pack into a dense network at an interface. This can occur if the free energy of the nanoparticles bound at the interface is lower than that of the NPs in either of the two phases. [ 38–40 ] The su...

Surface roughness at the Si–SiO2 interfaces in fully depleted silicon-on-insulator inversion layers

The effect of surface roughness scattering on electron transport properties in extremely thin silicon-on-insulator inversion layers is carefully analyzed. It is shown that if the silicon layer is thin enough ~thinner than 10 nm! the presence of the buried interface plays a very important role, both by modifying the surface roughness scattering rate due to the gate interface, and by itself provi...

Displacement Fields Influence Analysis Caused by Dislocation Networks at a Three Layer System Interfaces on the Surface Topology

This work consists in a numerically evaluation of elastic fields distribution, caused by intrinsic dislocation networks placed at a nanometric trilayers interfaces, in order to estimate their influence on the surface topology during heterostructure operation. The organization of nanostructures is ensured by the knowledge of different elastic fields caused by buried dislocation networks and calc...

Spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas at oxide interfaces.

The possibility of formation of a fully spin-polarized 2D electron gas at the SrMnO_3/(LaMnO_3)_1/SrMnO_3 heterostructure is predicted from density-functional calculations. The La(d) electrons become confined in the direction normal to the interface in the electrostatic potential well of the positively charged layer of La atoms, acting as electron donors. These electrons mediate a ferromagnetic...
