The discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991 is a milestone in nanomaterials research. Since
then, more and more anisotropic nanoparticles have been detected and characterized. The …

The tremendous interest in nanoscale structures such as quantum dots (zero-dimension)
and wires (quasi-one-dimension) stems from their size-dependent properties. One …

The three volumes of this handbook treat the fundamentals, technology and nanotechnology
of nitride semiconductors with an extraordinary clarity and depth. They present all the …

Since the discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991 (ref.), there have been significant research
efforts to synthesize nanometre-scale tubular forms of various solids,,,,,,,,. The formation of …

The ORR and OER properties of a series of recombinant single atom catalysts (SACs)
prepared by recombining Pt single atoms on 26 representative MXenes were …

The Messinian salinity crisis—the desiccation of the Mediterranean Sea between 5.96 and
5.33 million years (Myr) ago—was one of the most dramatic events on Earth during the …

We have proposed in 1992 that nanoparticles of layered compounds will be unstable
against folding and close into fullerene-like structures and nanotubes (IF). Nanotubes and …

First principles methods based on periodic boundary conditions are used extensively by
materials theorists. However, applying these methods to systems with confined electronic …

Unusual physical properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes have started a search for
similar tubular structures of other elements. In this paper, we present a theoretical analysis of …

Since the first report on the synthesis of inorganic WS2 nanotubes in 1992, the number of
articles on the successful growth of different inorganic nanotubes has increased rapidly …
