Sentences with phrase «nanowire into»

The purpose is to better understand and try to model how energy is getting transferred from the semiconductor nanowire into the metal.

An inserted organic material works as a spacer layer to control the energy transfer from the nanowire into the metal.

But how do you turn a nanowire into a vertical - cavity laser?

Not exact matches

Energy penetration into arrays of aligned nanowires irradiated with relativistic intensities: Scaling to terabar pressures

The nanowires collect sunlight, much like the light - absorbing layer on a solar panel, and the bacteria use the energy from that sunlight to carry out chemical reactions that turn carbon dioxide into a liquid fuel such as isopropanol.

In an article published online March 10 in the journal Advanced Materials, Dr. Moon Kim and his colleagues describe a material that, when heated to about 450 degrees Celsius, transforms from an atomically thin, two - dimensional sheet into an array of one - dimensional nanowires, each just a few atoms wide.

In addition, the material is highly flexible and could be woven into fabrics, enabling wearable forms; individual niobium nanowires are just 140 nanometers in diameter — 140 billionths of a meter across, or about one - thousandth the width of a human hair.

The composite material showed excellent heating properties, producing heat as electric current was passed through the silver nanowires, even when bent repeatedly or when rolled up into a tube.

Wong's group has fashioned the metals into ultrathin one - dimensional nanowires (roughly two nanometers in diameter).

M.I.T. breeds viruses that coat themselves in selected substances, then self - assemble into such devices as liquid crystals, nanowires and electrodes

In the time - lapse video above, taken as the battery is charged by electrons pumping into the tin oxide, lithium ions can be seen streaming though the hollow nanowire to pair with the electrons.

In the 3D simulations, the nanorings divided into quantum dots that materialized into columns on the nanowire facets and migrated towards the ridges upon further growth (see image).

The nanowire path beyond the superconductor is configured into a junction and the team ensures that the electrons take separate directions when they meet this fork by placing a «gate» built from a nanocrystal, called a quantum dot, at the head of each path.

«We want to overcome these losses by pumping energy from nanowire excitons, or electronic excitations, into the metal.

HP: What we have shown so far is that we can indeed introduce a variety of different biochemicals into neurons, neuronal networks and now even tissues using these nanowires in a spatially selected fashion.

We can simultaneously introduce many effectors, say micro-RNAs and nuclear factors, into the same cell by simply co-depositing these molecules onto the nanowires, and we can do this in a massively parallel arrayed fashion.

The process works through a mixture of steps using nanowires and bacteria that work together to mimic the photosynthesis process that plants use to turn carbon dioxide into food and the byproduct, oxygen.

Berkeley Lab researchers using a bioinorganic hybrid approach to artificial photosynthesis have combined semiconducting nanowires with select microbes to create a system that produces renewable molecular hydrogen and uses it to synthesize carbon dioxide into methane, the primary constituent of natural gas.
