Large melting-point hysteresis of Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2.
The melting behavior of Ge nanocrystals embedded within SiO2 is evaluated using in situ transmission electron microscopy. The observed melting-point hysteresis is large (+/-17%) and nearly symmetric about the bulk melting point. This hysteresis is modeled successfully using classical nucleation theory without the need to invoke epitaxy.
متن کاملSpectroscopic ellipsometry of composite thin films with embedded Bi nanocrystals
Spectroscopic ellipsometry together with an effective medium model is used to determine simultaneously the effective refractive index, thickness, and metal volume fraction of thin nanocomposite films. The films are formed by Bi nanocrystals embedded in amorphous matrices, either semiconducting ~Ge! or dielectric (Al2O3). For the Bi:Ge films ~metal in an absorbing host!, the values obtained for ...
متن کاملSize-Dependent Melting Behavior of Colloidal In, Sn, and Bi Nanocrystals
Colloidal nanocrystals are a technologically important class of nanostructures whose phase change properties have been largely unexplored. Here we report on the melting behavior of In, Sn, and Bi nanocrystals dispersed in a polymer matrix. This polymer matrix prevents the nanocrystals from coalescing with one another and enables previously unaccessed observations on the melting behavior of coll...
متن کاملMelting of Pb Nanocrystals Embedded in Al, Si, and Cu Matrices
Dispersions of nanoscale Pb particles embedded in Si, Al, and Cu matrices have been synthesized by ion implantation and subsequent annealing. The melting transitions of the embedded Pb nanocrystals with epitaxial particle/matrix interfaces were investigated by means of in situ high-temperature X-ray diffraction. Due to different levels of lattice mismatch, the Pb nanoprecipitates experience a d...
متن کاملSynthesis and Study of Fe-Doped Bi₂S₃ Semimagnetic Nanocrystals Embedded in a Glass Matrix.
Iron-doped bismuth sulphide (Bi2-xFexS₃) nanocrystals have been successfully synthesized in a glass matrix using the fusion method. Transmission electron microscopy images and energy dispersive spectroscopy data clearly show that nanocrystals are formed with an average diameter of 7-9 nm, depending on the thermic treatment time, and contain Fe in their chemical composition. Magnetic force micro...
