Optical properties of a three-dimensional composite medium consisting of an amplifying matrix with inclusion of silver nanoparticles of various shapes are investigated theoretically. Behaviour of the amplification coefficient of active... more
Finite element models of single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in their perfect and fundamental forms (zigzag and armchair) were constructed. Then, after obtaining the mechanical properties of perfect carbon nanotubes, three... more
Using the Maxwell-Garnett model, a complex effective index of refraction of a matrix metal-dielectric composite medium with silver inclusions of spheroidal shape is investigated. A possibility of observing the unit refractive index in the... more
It is theoretically shown that a thin composite slab comprised of a transparent host and uniformly oriented disc-like silver nanoparticles deposited onto a glass surface can act as an anti-reflection coating. The applicability of the... more
A design of ultrathin composite layer with metal nanoparticles on a dielectric surface is proposed for interference reduction of Fresnel reflection. The structural and material parameters of the antireflection composite are calculated... more
The present review paper traces the development of nanocrystalline copper (Nc-Cu) and nanocrystalline nickel (Nc-Ni) and their mechanical properties. The objective is to summarise the various results available in the literature. The... more
The optical properties of a composite medium comprised of a transparent host and uniformly oriented prolate silver nanoparticles are investigated theoretically. The results demonstrate that it is possible to fabricate an ultrathin-film... more
We present results of Brownian dynamics simulations of tethered nanospheres and tethered nanorods. Immiscibility between tether and nanoparticle facilitates microphase separation into the bicontinuous, double gyroid structure (first... more
In terms of the effective medium approximation, the optical properties of heterogeneous composite materials with disordered nanosized metal inclusions of spheroidal shape with plasmon resonances lying in the visible spectral range are... more
We consider optical properties of metal-dielectric composite media which have active laser medium as one of components. For various concentrations of components using exact electrodynamical calculations, we investigate the behavior of... more
A single-step method to coat and bifunctionalize water-reduced gold nanoparticles (NPs) with two distinct reactive groups is reported. The coating is based on a peptide that bonds to the NPs surface by its N-cysteine amino acid,... more
Advances in nanomaterials/nanostructures offer the possibility of fabricating multifunctional materials for use in engineering applications. Carbon nanotube (CNT)-based nanostructures are a representative building block for these... more
