This paper studies forced vibrational behavior of porous nanocrystalline silicon nanoshells under radial dynamic loads using strain gradient theory (SGT). This type of material contains many pores inside it and also there are nano-size grains which define the material character. The formulation for nanocrystalline nanoshell is provided by first order shell theory and a numerical approach is used in order to solve nanoshell equations. SGT gives a scale factor related to stiffness hardening provided by nano-grains. For more accurate description of size effects due to nano-grains or nano-pore, their surface energy influences have been introduced. Surface energy of inclusion exhibit extraordinary influence on dynamic response of the nanoshell. Also, dynamic response of the nanoshell is affected by the scale of nano-grain and nano-pore.

Polymer electronics is the one of the most promising way to realize the flexible electronics and many studies made remarkable progress to achieve the improvement in performance of polymer electronics comparable to current silicon-based technology. PBTTT is conjugated semiconducting polymer with highly ordered, chain-extended crystalline microstructures and shows high field effect mobilities above 0.1 $cm^2/Vs$. We studied PBTTTs FETs phase and explored methods to control channel interface in various device structures. Especially, in PBTTTs' unique nano-ribbon phase, we could obtain high mobilities of up to 0.4 $cm^2/Vs$, which was not reached before. Alignment of PBTTTs film was carried out using zone casting and anisotropy of mobilities in parallel and perpendicular to the polymer chain direction was investigated. Optical anisotropy in aligned nano-ribbon PBTTT FETs was also studied using a polarized optical absorption.

In this work, Ni-Co composites incorporated with nano-sized SiC particles in the range of 45-55 nm are prepared by electroplating. The effects of plating duration on the chemical composition, surface morphology, crystalline structures and hardness have been studied. The maximum hardness of Ni-Co-SiC composite coating is approximately 633 Hv at plating duration of 1 h. The hardness is gradually decreased with increasing plating duration, which can be attributed to the growth of crystalline size and the agglomerates of SiC nano-particles. It is therefore explained that the grain refinement of Ni-Co matrix and stable dispersion of SiC particles play an important role for strengthening, which indicate Hall-Petch relation and Orowan model were dominant for hardening of Ni-Co-SiC composite coatings.

Single crystalline Cu nanowires with controlled diameters and aspect ratios have been synthesized using electrochemical deposition within confined nanochannels of a porous anodic aluminium oxide(AAO) template. The diameters of nano-sized cylindrical pores in AAO template were adjusted by controlling the anodization conditions. Cu nanowires with diameters of approximately 38, 99, 274 nm were synthesized by the electrodeposition using the AAO templates. The crystal structure, morphology and microstructure of the Cu nanowires were systematically investigated using XRD, FE-SEM, TEM and SAED. Investigation results revealed that the Cu nanowires had the controlled diameter, high aspect ratio and single crystalline nature.

Electrical forming dependent current-voltage (I-V) and numerically derived differential conductance(dI／dV) characteristics have been presented in the multi-layer nano-crystalline silicon／oxygen (no-Si／O) superlattice. Distinct staircase-like features, indicating the presence of resonant tunnel barriers, are clearly observed in the dc I-V characteristics. Also, all samples showed a continuous change in current and zero conductivity around OV corresponding to the Coulomb blockade in the calculated dI／dV-V curve. Also, Ra-man scattering measurement showed the presence of a nano-crystalline Si structure. This result becomes a step in the right direction for the fabrication of silicon-based optoelectronic and quantum devices as well as for the replacement of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) in high speed and low power silicon MOSFET devices of the future.

In this paper, we have represented basic experiment results for the application of electric vehicle powerline communication using an induction type coupler. The coupler was fabricated using nano-crystalline alloy and it was applied to the charging system of electric vehicles to measure the communication performance. Experimental results showed a channel bandwidth over 48 Mbps.

This paper studies nonlinear stability behavior of a nanocrystalline silicon curved nanoshell considering strain gradient size-dependency. Nanocrystallines are composite materials with an interface phase and randomly distributed nano-size grains and pores. Imperfectness of the curved nanoshell has been defined based on an initial deflection. The formulation of nanocrystalline nanoshell has been established by thin shell theory and an analytical approach has been used in order to solve the buckling problem. For accurately describing the size effects related to nano-grains or nano-pores, their surface energies have been included. Nonlinear stability curves of the nanoshell are affected by the size of nano-grain, curvature radius and nano-pore volume fraction. It is found that increasing the nano-pore volume fraction results in lower buckling loads.
