Low‐dimensional materials exhibit many exceptional properties and functionalities which
can be efficiently tuned by externally applied force or fields. Here we review the current …

The chemistry of organic molecules on solid surfaces has been a central issue of surface
and interfacial chemistry. The technologically important surfaces mainly include catalytic …

Surfaces of semiconductors are crucially important for electronics, especially when the
devices are reduced to the nanoscale. However, surface structures are often elusive …

(57) ABSTRACT A structure to form an energy well within a Carbon nanotube is described.
The structure includes a doped semiconductor region and an undoped semiconductor …

Systematical molecular statics and dynamics simulations are performed on the interlayer
friction and energy dissipation of biwalled carbon nanotubes of different chirality and size …

The mechanisms of dimethyl ether (DME) carbonylation in the 8-membered ring (MR) and
the 12-MR channels of H-mordenite (H-MOR) zeolite were separately investigated by …

We have performed scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS)
measurements as well as ab initio calculations for graphene monolayers on clean and …

We have performed an ab initio theoretical investigation of a graphene sheet adsorbed on
amorphous SiO 2 surface (G/a-SiO 2). We find that graphene adsorbs on the a-SiO 2 surface …

The activity of olefins protonated by Brønsted acid sties in different pore structures (12-MR
and 8-MR channel) of mordenite (MOR) zeolite is investigated by the B3LYP+ D/6-31G (D …

We study single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) deposited on quartz. Their Raman
spectrum depends on the tube− substrate morphology, and in some cases, it shows that the …
