Full-Wave Techniques for the Analysis of Electrodynamics and Coherent Quantum Transport in Graphene Nanodevices
Journal Title: Carbon - Science and Technology - Year 2012, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
We report on full-wave techniques in the frequency (energy)-domain and the time-domain, aimed at the investigation of the combined electromagnetic-coherent transport problem in carbon based nanostructured materials and devices viz. graphene nanoribbons. The frequency-domain approach is introduced in order to describe a Poisson-Schrödinger / Dirac system in a quasi-static framework. The time-domain approach deals with the full-wave solution of the combined Maxwell-Schrödinger / Dirac system of equations. From the above theoretical platforms, home-made solvers are provided, aimed at dealing with challenging problems in realistic devices / systems environments, typical of the area of radio-frequency nanoelectronics.

Ferromagnetic Ni-doped ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by a chemical precursor method
A simple chemical synthesis method of pristine ZnO and Ni-doped ZnO (NixZn1-xO; x = 0.01-0.05) nanoparticles is reported. Structural and morphological properties of the synthesized nanoparticles have been studied using X...
Development of new metal matrix composite electrodes for electrical discharge machining through powder metallurgy process
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of the widely used nontraditional machining methods to produce die cavities by the erosive effect of electrical discharges. This method is popular due to the fact that a relati...

The effect of PTSA on preparation of mesophase carbon spheres
Mesophase spheres have been synthesized by heat-treating a medium coal tar pitch at 420 ºC for 2 hours in the presence of P-toluene sulphonic acid (PTSA). The effect of PTSA on synthesis of mesophase spheres had been stu...
