Understanding insulation failure of nanodielectrics: tailoring carrier energy by Shengtao Li, Dongri Xie, Qingquan Lei, Qingquan Lei

“…Molecular simulation results show that the interaction energy and electrostatic potential are larger for the soft interface, which indicates the greater bonding strength with the polymer matrix and electrostatic force on charge carriers. Charge transport simulation indicates that the accumulation of homo-charges would form a reverse electric field and distort electric field distribution. …”

Nonextensive GES instability with nonlinear pressure effects by Munmi Gohain, Pralay Kumar Karmakar

“…The formalism couples the solar interior plasma (SIP, bounded) and solar wind plasma (SWP, unbounded) via the diffused solar surface boundary (SSB) formed due to an exact long-range gravito-electrostatic force-equilibration. A linear normal mode ansatz reveals both dispersive and non-dispersive features of the modified GES collective wave excitations. …”

Investigating Size-Dependent Conductive Properties on Individual Si Nanowires by X. F. Hu, S. J. Li, J. Wang, Z. M. Jiang, X. J. Yang

“…Together with the I–V curve characterization, a possible mechanism is supposed with the viewpoint of size-dependent Schottky barrier height, which is further verified by the electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) measurements. This study also suggests that CAFM can act as an effective means to explore the size (or other parameters) dependence of conductive properties on individual nanostructures, which should be essential for both fabrication optimization and potential applications of nanostructures.…”
