TL;DR: Experimental results showed that MnO(2) polymorphic forms can be synthesized by selected-control reaction temperatures and their crystal phases in the nanowires were confirmed by XRD and TEM measurement.
Abstract: α- and β-MnO(2) single-crystal nanowires have been successfully synthesized through a soft chemical process, which involves no catalysts or templates. The diameters of the nanowires are about 10-40 nm and the lengths up to several tens of micrometres. Experimental results showed that MnO(2) polymorphic forms can be synthesized by selected-control reaction temperatures and their crystal phases in the nanowires were confirmed by XRD and TEM measurement. Further, the formation process of nanowires is discussed.

TL;DR: This paper attempted to establish methods of modifying magic Aun(SR)m clusters as a means of creating metal clusters that are both robust and functional and summarized the studies towards this goal.
Abstract: Nanomaterials which exhibit both stability and functionality are currently considered to hold the most promise as components of nanotechnology devices. Thiolate (RS)-protected gold nanoclusters (Aun(SR)m) have attracted significant attention in this regard and, among these, the magic clusters are believed to be the best candidates since they are the most stable. We have investigated the effects of heteroatom doping, protection by selenolate ligands and protection by photoresponsive thiolates on the stability and physical/chemical properties of these clusters. Through such studies, we have attempted to establish methods of modifying magic Aun(SR)m clusters as a means of creating metal clusters that are both robust and functional. This paper summarizes our studies towards this goal and the obtained results.

TL;DR: The dc Josephson current through a constriction in a two-dimensional superconductor-semiconductor-superconductor junction is calculated and shows a steplike variation as a function of the width of the constriction; this is reminiscent of the quantization of the normal-state conductance of point contacts in aTwo-dimensional electron gas.
Abstract: The dc Josephson current through a constriction in a two-dimensional superconductor-semiconductor- superconductor junction is calculated. It is shown that when the Fermi wavelength is comparable with the width of the constriction, the critical current shows a steplike variation as a function of the width of the constriction; this is reminiscent of the quantization of the normal-state conductance of point contacts in a two-dimensional electron gas

TL;DR: In this paper, the cosmological implications of generalized Proca theories are investigated for both the background and the linear perturbation by taking into account the Lagrangian up to quintic order.
Abstract: We consider a massive vector field with derivative interactions that propagates only the 3 desired polarizations (besides two tensor polarizations from gravity) with second-order equations of motion in curved space-time. The cosmological implications of such generalized Proca theories are investigated for both the background and the linear perturbation by taking into account the Lagrangian up to quintic order. In the presence of a matter fluid with a temporal component of the vector field, we derive the background equations of motion and show the existence of de Sitter solutions relevant to the late-time cosmic acceleration. We also obtain conditions for the absence of ghosts and Laplacian instabilities of tensor, vector, and scalar perturbations in the small-scale limit. Our results are applied to concrete examples of the general functions in the theory, which encompass vector Galileons as a specific case. In such examples, we show that the de Sitter fixed point is always a stable attractor and study viable parameter spaces in which the no-ghost and stability conditions are satisfied during the cosmic expansion history.
