We carried out in situ resistivity measurements on macroscopic oriented ropes of single wall carbon nanotubes in a transmission electron microscope. We have found a minimum in the resistivity as a function of irradiation dose. This minimum is interpreted as a result of a twofold effect of the...

A single nanotube was cut by electron beam heating in transmission electron microscope. The lifetimes of the tubes due to electron beam heating became the longest when the tubes were heated in dry air at 500 °C in advance. This behavior can be explained by considering the quantity of...

Selective encapsulation of different materials or phases of a material inside a carbon nanotube leads to controlling local properties of the nanotube. We report a method of synthesizing stable γ-Fe selectively inside a carbon nanotube by transforming α-Fe through electron irradiation in...

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were manipulated inside a high-resolution transmission electron microscope combined with a nano manipulator, and a single MWNT emitter freestanding on a platinum surface was fabricated by nanowelding. The electron field emission properties of the single MWNT...

Recently, Sader [J. Appl. Phys. 84, 64 (1998)] and Green and Sader [J. Appl. Phys. 92, 6262 (2002)] developed a theory predicting thermally driven frequency responses of a microcantilever immersed in a fluid. This letter presents an experimental investigation of the temperature effects on...

The control of pulmonary oxygen uptake $$(\dot{{V}}\hbox{O}_{2})$$ kinetics above the lactate threshold (LT) is complex and controversial. Above LT, $$\dot{{V}}\hbox{O}_{2}$$ for square-wave exercise is greater than predicted from the sub-LT $$\dot{{V}}\hbox{O}_{2}$$ –WR relationship,...

This paper presents the use of frequency response functions (FRFs) to detect cracks in structures using vibration signals under in-situ conditions in a metallic structure. Two methods are applied and compared: Damage Location Vector (DLV) and Maia FRF Curvature Difference (MFCD). Results have...
- Disorder-induced transparency in a one-dimensional waveguide side coupled with optical cavities. Yongyou Zhang; Guangda Dong; Bingsuo Zou // Journal of Applied Physics;2014, Vol. 115 Issue 17, p173105-1
Disorder influence on photon transmission behavior is theoretically studied in a one-dimensional waveguide side coupled with a series of optical cavities. For this sake, we propose a concept of disorder-induced transparency appearing on the low-transmission spectral background. Two kinds of...
