Self-assembly of supported 2D or 3D nanocrystals (NCs) by vacuum deposition and of 3D NCs by solution-phase synthesis (with possible subsequent transfer to a support) produces …
The electroreduction of CO2 (CO2RR) is a promising strategy toward sustainable fuels. Cu is the only Earth-abundant and pure metal capable of catalyzing CO2-to-hydrocarbons …

When collimated beams of low energy ions are used to bombard materials, the surface often develops a periodic pattern or “ripple” structure. Different types of patterns are observed to …
Surface Properties of Electronic Materials is the fifth volume of the series, The Chemical Physics of Solid Surfaces and Heterogeneous Catalysis. This volume indicates the present …

We present a mathematical link between Schelling's socio-economic model of segregation and the physics of clustering. We replace the economic concept of “utility” by the physics …
Metal anode-based battery systems have been deemed indispensable towards energy storage renaissance engendering extensive research into strategies countering dendritic …

We report scanning tunneling microscopy observations, which imply that all atoms in a Cu (001) surface move frequently, even at room temperature. Using a low density of embedded …
We describe experimental observations and theoretical analysis of the coarsening of distributions of two-dimensional nanoclusters, either adatom islands or vacancy pits, on …

We have investigated the decay of Cu adatom islands on Cu (111) as a function of temperature using scanning tunneling microscopy. By comparing the experimental results …
