The acid oxidation of carbon nanotube generally results in opening the close ends of the nanotube and to make surface modifications. Herewith, Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were oxidized in acids at high temperature experimental conditions which led to the formation of graphene quantum dots (GQDs).   High resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectro...

a noninteracting quantum-dot arrays side coupled to a quantum wire is studied. transport through the quantum wire is investigated by using a noninteracting anderson tunneling hamiltonian. the conductance at zero temperature develops an oscillating band with resonances and antiresonances due to constructive and destructive interference in the ballistic channel, respectively. moreover, we have fo...

in this work, some of the lattice plasmon quantum features are examined. Initially, the interaction of the far-field photonic mode and the nanoparticle plasmon mode is investigated. We probe the optical properties of the array plasmon that are dramatically affected by the array geometry. It is notable to mention that the original goal of this work is to examine the quantum feature of the array ...

In segregation during InAs growth on GaAs(001) is studied using a real time, in situ technique capable of measuring sample accumulated stress. A 50% surface In segregation of liquid-like stress free matter is deduced. A picture of growth below critical thickness for quantum dot formation is discussed on the basis of the equilibrium between pseudomorphic InAs and liquid In dominated by the stres...

We discuss novel nanoelectronic architecture paradigms based on cells composed of coupled quantum-dots. Boolean logic functions may be implemented in specific arrays of cells representing binary information, the so-called Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata (QCA). Cells may also be viewed as carrying analog information and we outline a network-theoretic description of such Quantum-Dot Nonlinear Netwo...

In this experimental work, nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots were successfully synthesized with hydrothermal of the milk. The product was composed of a powder and a stable colloid. The structure of the product was examined by XRD, EDS and FT-IR analysis. Also the particle size of the product was investigated by SEM and TEM images and the results showed the product is mainly composed of the par...

Current work proposes an inimitable composite, with great electrical conductivity and quite enhanced surface area, (including conducting polymers (poly (cathechol)), Cu2O–carbon dots and green synthesized gold nanoparticles) for detecting acute carcinoembryonic antigen. At current work, the electropolymerization was offered instead of enzyme-catalyzed polymerization of poly (catechol). <b...

in this paper, using the tight-binding model, we extend the real-space renormalization group method to time-dependent hamiltonians. we drive the time-dependent recursion relations for the renormalized tight-binding hamiltonian by decimating selective sites of lattice iteratively. the formalism is then used for the calculation of the local density of electronic states for a one dimensional quant...
