Furthermore, carbon-based materials such as diamond-like carbon (DLC) show the low friction properties in water lubrication due to the oxidation reaction on the surface in pre-sliding. However, the influence of oxidation reactions on low friction mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we clarify the structure change of DLC with the oxidation reaction in the pre-sliding using first-principles calculation, which suggests the low friction mechanism of DLC in water lubrication. The results show the structure change from sp3 carbon (Csp3) to sp2 carbon (Csp2) by the oxidation reaction on the surface. Furthermore, the Csp2 rich surface in water lubrication indicates the smooth sliding. We suggest that the structure change from Csp3 to Csp2 would affect low friction properties of DLC in water lubrication.","PeriodicalId":6646,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 16th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO)","volume":"6 1","pages":"941-943"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86951753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystals are considered to be very promising for nanoelectronics and spintronics applications. It provides a large class of materials proposed to be important for long distance spin transport, spin polarized tunneling and large spin-orbit coupling. Here I will discuss spintronic aspects of these 2D materials and their heterostructures. Graphene is considered to be an ideal material for spin transport due to the high mobility and long spin lifetime of the carriers. Recently, we demonstrated spin transport over distances of 16 μm and spin lifetimes up to 1.2 ns in large area CVD graphene on SiO2/Si substrate at room temperature [1]. Subsequently, using insulating h-BN as a tunnel barrier on graphene, we observe an enhancement in spin polarized tunneling [2], and its negative sign for thicker h-BN layers [3]. These signatures provide an experimental evidence of the spin filtering across the ferromagnet/hBN-graphene van der Waals heterostructures. We also employed 2D materials such as h-BN and MoS2 in ferromagnetic tunnel junctions for observation of tunnel magnetoresistance up to room temperature [4]. We further aim to address the issue of spin manipulation in graphene by employing heterostructures with other 2D semiconductors [5], topological insulators [6] and materials with novel spin textures. I will present both electronic and spintronic properties of these 2D materials and their heterostructures. These findings open a platform for exploring novel spin functionalities in 2D crystals and understanding the basic phenomenon that control their behavior.","PeriodicalId":6646,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 16th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO)","volume":"25 1","pages":"986-986"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87005039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To overcome this limitation, we show a relationship between the printing resolution and the sheet resistance. Furthermore, big differences between the two studied substrates are found in the electro-optical characteristics of CNT films. This work shows a reliable procedure for the choice of substrates and printing parameters for the realization of fully inkjet-printed large area CNT networks for electrode and sensing applications.","PeriodicalId":6646,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 16th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO)","volume":"30 1","pages":"487-490"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84440789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The motion of the particle caused by thermal fluctuation is restricted within a narrow region because of gravity, and the vertical displacement of the particle from the bottom of the droplet depends on its mass. Since the particle is trapped inside the droplet, the mean horizontal displacement decreases as the mass of the particle increases. Hence, the mass can be determined by observing displacement. Although a modeling error arises from neglecting the electrical double-layer interaction between a particle and water surface, we show that its influence on the mass is very small.","PeriodicalId":6646,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 16th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO)","volume":"86 1","pages":"214-217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85875110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, undesired electrical insulating behavior caused by deep interface states is observed. It is known that the interface states originate from the dissociated As atoms between GaAs core and Ga2O3 outer layer. Here, we investigated the effect of hydrogen exposure on anodically etched GaAs nanowires in liquid electrolyte in order to reduce the high density of interface states. As a result of different hydrogen exposure time, Raman spectra indicated that the longitudinal optical phonon intensities gradually decreased and slightly upshifted with increasing the electrolysis time. This means that the density of interface states was reduced by the hydrogen exposure. Based on the Raman analysis, we fabricated thin-film transistors (TFTs) using GaAs nanowires with 600 s of reverse electrolysis treatment. The TFT having nanowire random network channel showed good electrical properties (field-effect mobility: 2.3 cm2/Vs). This is comparable to TFTs using random network channel composed of other one dimensional materials.","PeriodicalId":6646,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 16th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO)","volume":"8 1","pages":"70-73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83030215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
