Journal ArticleDOI
A nanomechanical mass sensor with yoctogram resolution
TL;DR: This unprecedented level of sensitivity allows us to detect adsorption events of naphthalene molecules, and to measure the binding energy of a xenon atom on the nanotube surface, which could have applications in mass spectrometry, magnetometry and surface science.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subnanometer motion of cargoes driven by thermal gradients along carbon nanotubes
Amelia Barreiro,Riccardo Rurali,Eduardo R. Hernández,Joel Moser,Thomas Pichler,László Forró,Adrian Bachtold +6 more
TL;DR: An artificial nanofabricated motor in which one short carbon nanotubes moves relative to another coaxial nanotube is reported on, which allows for subnanometer displacements, as opposed to an electromigration or random walk effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colloquium: Structural, electronic, and transport properties of silicon nanowires
TL;DR: In this article, the theory of silicon nanowires is reviewed and the structural properties of these wires are discussed, emphasizing the close connection between the growth orientation, the cross-section and the bounding facets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarity Assignment in ZnTe, GaAs, ZnO, and GaN-AlN Nanowires from Direct Dumbbell Analysis
Maria de la Mata,César Magén,Jaume Gazquez,Muhammad Iqbal Bakti Utama,Martin Heiss,Sergei Lopatin,Florian Furtmayr,Florian Furtmayr,Carlos J. Fernández-Rojas,Carlos J. Fernández-Rojas,Bo Peng,Joan Ramon Morante,Riccardo Rurali,Martin Eickhoff,Anna Fontcuberta i Morral,Qihua Xiong,Jordi Arbiol,Jordi Arbiol +17 more
TL;DR: The proposed experimental via opens new routes for the fine characterization of nanostructures, e.g., in electronic and optoelectronic fields, where the polarity is crucial for the understanding of their physical properties as well as their growth mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fullerene Coalescence in Nanopeapods: A Path to Novel Tubular Carbon
Eduardo R. Hernández,Vincent Meunier,B. W. Smith,Riccardo Rurali,Humberto Terrones,M. Buongiorno Nardelli,Mauricio Terrones,David E. Luzzi,J.-C. Charlier +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, in situ transmission electron microscope (TEM) observations reveal sequences of fullerene coalescence induced by electron irradiation on pristine nanotube peapods, together with extensive theoretical investigations of the microscopic mechanism underlying this process.
