Atom-by-atom observation of grain boundary migration in graphene.
Grain boundary (GB) migration in polycrystalline solids is a materials science manifestation of survival of the fittest, with adjacent grains competing to add atoms to their outer surfaces at each other's expense. This process is thermodynamically favored when it lowers the total GB area in the sample, thereby reducing the excess free energy contributed by the boundaries. In this picture, a cur...
متن کاملMagnetization due to localized states on graphene grain boundary
Magnetism in graphene has been found to originate from various defects, e.g., vacancy, edge formation, add-atoms etc. Here, we discuss about an alternate route of achieving magnetism in graphene via grain boundary. During chemical vapor deposition of graphene, several graphene nucleation centers grow independently and face themselves with unusual bonding environment, giving rise to the formatio...
متن کاملEpigenomic landscapes of retinal rods and cones
Rod and cone photoreceptors are highly similar in many respects but they have important functional and molecular differences. Here, we investigate genome-wide patterns of DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility in mouse rods and cones and correlate differences in these features with gene expression, histone marks, transcription factor binding, and DNA sequence motifs. Loss of NR2E3 in rods ...
متن کاملFive-parameter grain boundary distribution in grain boundary engineered brass
We report the first application of a five-parameter determination of grain boundary types to grain boundary engineered alpha-brass. The most important findings were that the distribution of planes showed a prevalence of <110> tilt boundaries, especially asymmetric tilt types, and the presence of <111> twist boundaries. This distribution resulted from the low energy of these boundary types.
متن کاملIn situ atomic imaging of coalescence of Au nanoparticles on graphene: rotation and grain boundary migration.
Using in situ transmission electron microscopy, we demonstrated that gold nanoparticles are unified via "oriented attachment" assisted either by nanoparticle rotation or grain boundary migration at the attachment interface. We also observed that the combined nanoparticle changes shape with stable facet planes via surface diffusion, along with recrystallization.
