چکیده

Results of computer simulations based on ab initio methods are presented for the newly observed magnetism found in carbon-based and non-traditional inorganic materials. These results reinforce our previously proposed explanation about the nature and the origin of this “new type of magnetism” which attributes this to electron correlations effects which develop in the presence of defects and doping. These observations suggest possible pathways which can be used to tailor such a defect-induced magnetism with significant implications in nanotechnology.

Unique Static Magnetic and Dynamic Electromagnetic Behaviors in Titanium Nitride/Carbon Composites Driven by Defect Engineering

Recently, the defect-induced static magnetic behaviours of nanomaterials have been a cutting-edge issue in diluted magnetic semiconductor materials. However, the dynamic magnetic properties of nanomaterials are commonly ignored if their bulk counterparts are non-magnetic. In the present research, titanium nitride-carbon (TiN/C) nanocomposites were found to exhibit both static and dynamic magnet...

Numerical Study of Furnace Temperature and Inlet Hydrocarbon Concentration Effect on Carbon Nanotube Growth Rate

Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is one of the most important methods for producing Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs). In this research, a numerical model, based on finite volume method, is investigated. The applied method solves the conservation of mass, momentum, energy and species transport equations with aid of ideal gas law. Using this model, the growth rate and thickness uniformity of produced CNTs,...
