While theoretical investigations have provided valuable insights into the stability and electronic properties of SiNTs, experimental synthesis methods have faced challenges in producing single-walled SiNTs with diameters comparable to their carbon counterparts. This study employed theoretical methods to investigate the structural stability, bonding properties, and electronic structure of different types of SiNTs.

The h- and g-SiNTs show higher stability at larger diameters, while the l-SiNTs are more stable at lower diameters; surprisingly, the nanotube with pentagon cross-section shows the highest stability. Moreover, g-SiNTs generally show better stability than h-SiNTs.

Its high efficiency, low power consumption, and thrust control make it an attractive option for miniaturized propulsion systems. However, challenges remain in optimizing performance and controlling emission characteristics. Here we hypothesize that extremely sharp microneedles in externally wetted emitter devices, despite offering lower onset voltages and higher currents, can produce undesirable off-axis emission due to the propellant ejection perpendicular to the surface before arriving at the microneedle tip, thereby generating broad angular emission patterns. Through a combination of simulations and experimental evaluations, we analyzed the impact of emitter sharpness on the beam divergence and angular efficiency. It is shown that very sharp emitters (20° tip half-angle) exhibit clear off-axis emission with toroidal shape angular patterns in the plume even at moderate applied voltages, indicating emission of particles from the propellant before arriving at the tip and following trajectories nearly perpendicular to the emitter surface due to the generated electric field. Such off-axis emission significantly decreases the propulsive efficiency and may result in a decreased lifetime. This effect has been mitigated by increasing the tip semiangle to 30°, recovering a beam distribution with a typical Gaussian profile. Moreover, it has been observed that increasing the fluidic impedance of the nanostructured surface can slightly narrow the angular emission distribution to improve the propulsive efficiency.

This study aimed to investigate the substrate-dependent sintering mechanisms of Ag nanostructures sintered on Ag, Al, and Cu substrates via the thermal decomposition of an Ag-based complex at 180 °C. A specific mechanism based on the reaction between the Ag-based complex and substrate can be elucidated for the sintering of Ag nanostructures. The sintering of Ag nanostructures on Ag and Al substrates involved the sintering of polydispersed Ag particles. The smaller Ag particles enhanced the stacking density by filling the interspaces between the larger Ag particles and acted as diffusion pathways, facilitating the sintering process and leading to superior low-temperature bonding performance. Notably, a shear strength of 21.8 MPa was achieved for the sintered Ag on the Ag substrate at 160 °C, indicating a well-bonded interface. However, the presence of an Al oxide layer on the Al substrate hindered the formation of a robust interface with sintered Ag, resulting in diminished shear strength. In contrast, the sintering of Ag nanostructures on the Cu substrate involved a displacement reaction between the Ag-based complex and Cu substrate. This reaction led to Cu compounds with a high decomposition temperature of 211 °C and formation of intermediate organic products and CuO in Ag joints, which deteriorated the joint properties.
