Abstract:
We provide a theoretical model that describes the dielectric coupling of a two-dimensional (2D) layer of graphene, represented by a polarization function in the random phase approximation, and a semi-infinite three-dimensional (3D) substrate, represented by a surface response function in a non-local formulation. We concentrate on the role of the dynamic response of the substrate for low-frequency excitations of the combined graphene-substrate system, which give rise to the stopping force on slowly moving charges above doped graphene. A comparison of the dielectric loss function with experimental high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) data for graphene on a SiC substrate is used to estimate the effects of damping rate and the local field correction in graphene, as well as to reveal the importance of phonon excitations in an insulating substrate. While the local field correction and linearly dispersing damping rate did not yield any important effects compar!
ed to the constant damping rate in graphene, a strong signature of the hybridization between graphene's p plasmon and the substrate's phonon is found in both the HREELS spectra and the stopping force. A friction coefficient that is calculated for slow charges moving above graphene on a metallic substrate shows an interplay between the low-energy single-particle excitations in both systems.

Abstract:
The selective rate of specific ion transport across nanoporous material is critical to biological and nanofluidic systems Molecular sieves for ions can be achieved by steric and electrical effects However, the radii of Na+ and K+ are quite similar, they both carry a positive charge, making them difficult to separate Biological ionic channels contain precisely arranged arrays of amino acids that can efficiently recognize and guide the passage of K+ or Na+ across the cell membrane However, the design of inorganic channels with novel recognition mechanisms that control the ionic selectivity remains a challenge. We present here a design for a controllable ion-selective nanopore (molecular sieve) based on a single-walled carbon nanotube with specially arranged carbonyl oxygen atoms modified inside the nanopore, which was inspired by the structure of potassium channels in membrane spanning proteins (e g, KcsA) Our molecular dynamics simulations show that the remarkable selectivity!
is attributed to the hydration structure of Na+ or K+ confined in the nanochannels, which can be precisely tuned by different patterns of the carbonyl oxygen atoms The results also suggest that a confined environment plays a dominant role in the selectivity process. These studies provide a better understanding of the mechanism of ionic selectivity in the KcsA channel and possible technical applications in nanotechnology and biotechnology, including serving as a laboratory-in-nanotube for special chemical interactions and as a high-efficiency nanodevice for purification or desalination of sea and brackish water

Abstract:
A large scale nest array of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (NACNTs) was grown on silicon nanoporous pillar array (Si-NPA) by thermal chemical vapor deposition. Through observing its macro/micromorphology and structure, ascertaining the catalyst component and its locations at different growth time by hiring field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution TEM, and selected area electron diffraction, the growth process was deduced. Its thermal properties were also investigated by using a thermogravimetric analyzer. Our experiments demonstrated that the CNTs growth by means of root-growth mechanism at the initial growth stage, then a continuous growth process with its tip open is suggested, finally, a schematic growth model of NACNT/Si-NPA was presented.
