Combining the hydrogen (H2) extraction process and organic oxidation synthesis in
photooxidation–reduction reactions mediated by semiconductors is a desirable strategy …

Instabilities in semiconductor heterostructure growth can be exploited for the self-organized
formation of nanostructures, allowing for carrier confinement in all three spatial dimensions …

Progress in nanoscience is becoming increasingly dependent on simulation and modelling.
This is due to a combination of three factors: the reduced size of nano-objects, the …

The vast technological potential of nanocrystalline materials, as well as current intense
interest in the physics and chemistry of nanoscale phenomena, has led to explosive growth …

We present a cross-sectional scanning-tunneling microscopy investigation of the shape,
