Welcome Address

Condensed Matter Physics, Nanoscience and Nanotechnology are areas of interdisciplinary
study investigating the properties of matter at the micro- and nanoscale, which hold many of
the phenomena that determine the macroscopic behavior we see in our daily lives. Particularly,
the scientific progress that has been developed from the interaction between these fields has
had great impact on society finding applications in the fields of medicine and pharmaceutics,
chemistry, telecommunications, recording systems, among others.

Training of scientists able to understand, develop technologically new materials and processes,
and analyze the implications of scientific advances is key to the development of our societies.
Hence the importance of forums such as the Congress of the Condensed Matter Division (DMC-
SMF), the School of Condensed Matter and Nanoscience, the Congress of the Division of
Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (DINANO-SMF) of the Mexican Physical Society and the
International and Interdisciplinary Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (NANOMEX), which
pursue to foster, support and organize various scientific and academic events nationally and
internationally, where their members (researchers, teachers and students at various levels,
affiliated to different national institutions) have the opportunity to present, discuss and learn
from the latest developments in Condensed Matter Physics, Nanoscience and Nanotechnology.

As part of the program of activities for 2013, the Mexican Physical Society together with the
National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), the University of La Cinega of the
Michoacn de Ocampo State (INAT-UCM), the Optics Research Center (CIO) and NANOMEX
organized the joint meeting of the 10th edition of the International Topical Meeting on
Nanostructured Materials and Nanotechnology (NANOTECH), the 2nd edition of the Condensed
Matter Annual Congress and the National School Condensed Matter, the 7th Annual Meeting of
DINANO-SMF, and the 6th International Conference and Interdisciplinary in Nanoscience and
Nanotechnology. This event will be held on 13-17 May 2013, in the city of Morelia Michoacn at
the Academic and Cultural Unity of UNAM, Campus Morelia. This event represents a
fundamental space in which information on new materials and their various technological
applications will be found throughout the lectures and presentation of current research. Topics
of broad scientific interest will be taught by academics and researchers of international renown

Coherent diffraction imaging and its application to the characterisation of
nanoscale Materials

Grant van Riessen
ARC Centre of Excellence for Coherent X-Ray Science, Department of Physics,
La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia
Email: g.vanriessen@latrobe.edu.au

X-rays enable a versatile visualization of materials properties. Diffraction from crystals plays a
particularly important role in elucidating structure with very high resolution. However, the
structure of amorphous and disordered materials, including biomolecules that cannot be
crystallized, is inaccessible by this method. A promising method for overcoming this limitation
called coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) uses highly coherent X-ray beams and allows the
reconstruction of two and three-dimensional images of nanoscale structures from the
measured intensity of their far-field diffraction patterns. The reconstruction process employs
algorithms to retrieve the phases of the (oversampled) coherent diffraction pattern. Free from
the limitation of image-forming lenses, CDI can achieve very high spatial resolution, limited only
by the numerical aperture of the scattered Xrays that are detected. CDI depends on the
coherence properties of an X-ray beam, but retains all the fundamental advantages of utilising a
weakling interacting probe that is both penetrating and (relatively) non-destructive, and which
can couple to various order parameters, including internal structure, chemical bonding, orbital
orientation and magnetism.

In these lectures, organised in four parts, the development of coherent diffraction imaging and
related methods for studying nano- and mesoscale materials science will be reviewed. In the
first part, the nature of x-ray interactions with matter will be briefly reviewed with a view to
understanding how the properties and behaviour of condensed matter can be discovered and
characterised. The development of experimental methods that make use of the coherence
properties of synchrotron X-ray beams will then be introduced. In particular, the principles,
development and techniques of coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) will be explored.

The second part will focus on experimental aspects of coherent diffractive imaging and its
application to the study of complex materials in two- and three-dimensions. The dedicated
instruments required for CDI experiments depend on high-brightness, highly coherent light
sources and generally include nanofabricated optics, nanopositioning and nanometrology
technology, and state-of-the-art detectors. The design and implementation of such an
instrument that was recently installed at a soft X-ray elliptically polarising undulator beamline
of the Australian Synchrotron will be presented as a case study to illustrate some of the
experimental challenges in coherent diffractive imaging.

In the third part, we will explore contemporary applications of coherent X-ray diffraction
imaging and related techniques to the study of materials properties, including nanoscale
morphology and composition, magnetism, and the internal strain distribution of thin films and
21

individual nanocrystals. A variety of examples of synchrotron CDI experiments from groups
around the world will be considered.

In the final part, we will examine a completely new generation of coherent X-ray scattering
experiments that make use of the recent availability of ultrashort X-ray pulses from X-ray
freeelectron lasers (X-FEL). The dramatically higher coherent flux available with an XFEL allows
improved spatial and energy resolution and access to new domains of dynamical processes. In
this part we revisit the basic concepts of the interaction of X-rays with matter to understand
the implications for ultrafast imaging and structure determination.

Application of optical spectroscopies to the study of semiconductors

Most of the major technological advances have been linked to the development of new
materials and processes. By understanding the similarities and differences between these kinds
of materials you can choose properly their applications within the challenges of current and
future technology. The properties of a material are related to its structure, hence the
importance of understanding the processing details and how its parameter modification affects
its structure. Semiconductor materials of high importance in the manufacture of the
optoelectronic industry with a special importance in optical communications are manufactured
and processed with the most advanced growth techniques in which there is a precise control on
the composition and structure allowing their reproducibility.

The study of the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter provides valuable
information concerning the properties and processing of semiconductors. The optical
spectroscopies have been useful and important in the characterization of physical, chemical
and biological processes. Optical spectroscopy is a large branch of science which comprises,
from the various methods for obtaining spectra, their measurement and applications, up to
their deepest theoretical interpretation related to the atomic and molecular structure of the
material. Particularly in semiconductors, this interaction with light give information of specific
parameters such as band gap energy, states within the band gap such as excitons, defects,
impurity levels, phonon energy, grain size, crystal quality, lattice parameters, etc. From the
point of view of the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter, a spectrum can be
thought as a graphical representation of the intensity distribution of the electromagnetic
radiation emitted or absorbed by a material as a function of the wavelength (or frequency) of
this radiation. A spectrum depends in principle on the separation between different types of
energy levels. Therefore, we can distinguish different types of spectra depending on the energy
levels involved and the experimental techniques used for their observation.

There are several optical characterization techniques such as photoluminescence,
photoreflectance, thermoreflectance and electroreflectance, which are complementary to each
other. They are usually non-destructive techniques, in samples comprising bulk materials, thin
films, microstructures, nanostructures, quantum dots. The fundamentals, analysis and
implementation criteria of optical spectroscopy techniques for the characterization of
semiconductors will be discussed during the presentation of this course.

Crecimiento de nanopartculas semiconductoras de los tipos II-VI y III-V y sus
aplicaciones

Julio G. Mendoza lvarez

Departamento de Fsica, Centro de Investigacin y de Estudios Avanzados
del Instituto Politcnico Nacional, Mexico

Los efectos de confinamiento cuntico predichos a nivel terico desde comienzos del siglo XX,
encontraron sus primeras demostraciones prcticas hacia inicios de los aos 70s cuando se
pudieron fabricar las primeras estructuras de pozos cunticos basadas en los semiconductores
III-V como el arseniuro de galio (GaAs), los cuales consistan de capas con espesores menores al
radio de Bohr del excitn; esto es, para el GaAs espesores menores a 20 nanmetros. A partir
de entonces dio inicio una enorme avalancha de investigacin sobre ste nuevo tipo de
materiales de dimensionalidad reducida, con nuevas propiedades estructurales, mecnicas,
pticas y elctricas, resultado de los fenmenos de confinamiento cuntico. A la fecha, el
campo de las nanociencias y la nanotecnologa es quizs el de mayor actividad y desarrollo, y
muchos dispositivos basados en materiales nanoestructurados estn ya en el mercado.

En el Grupo de Estado Slido del Cinvestav, unidad Zacatenco, desde el ao de 1996 se inici el
estudio de semiconductores nanoestructurados al reportar el crecimiento de pelculas delgadas
nanoestructuradas de CdNiTe (Journal of Applied Physics, Vol. 80, pp. 2833-2837, 1996).

En este trabajo reportamos el crecimiento de puntos cunticos semiconductores de CdS (de la
familia II-VI), y de InP (de la familia III-V), usando tcnicas de crecimiento del tipo bao qumico.

Las nanopartculas (NPs) de CdS se embebieron en almidn como agente estabilizador
funcionalizando la superficie del semiconductor con grupos polares como el SO
3-
y el OH
-
. Se
presentan resultados de la influencia del pH de la solucin de crecimiento, sobre la absorcin
ptica, la fotoluminiscencia, y el tamao de los nanocristales semiconductores.

En el caso de las NPs de InP, stas se sintetizaron por medio de un mtodo qumico de un solo
paso con calentamiento a bajas temperaturas. Se variaron los parmetros a fin controlar el
tamao de los nanocristales con el objeto de poder variar la energa de banda prohibida del InP
en todo el rango del espectro visible; adems se pasiv la superficie de los nanocristales de InP
con ZnS a fin de incrementar la eficiencia de luminiscencia, para su posible uso como
marcadores fluorescentes en la biomedicina. Se presentan resultados sobre la caracterizacin
estructural y ptica de stas NPs de InP.

Recent advances in molecular transport from first principles

Marco Buongiorno Nardelli

University of North Texas, USA

Molecular spintronics envisions the construction of molecular spin states that will control spin
injection, transport, and manipulation for new high speed, low-power devices through designed
synthesis. Not only can molecular spin states be designed as key components of new molecules,
these spin states can also be designed to be switchable using external stimuli via a process
known as spin crossover. In this talk I will review recent advances in the study of molecular
spintronics with first principles techniques and discuss recent results on the
electronic/spintronic/thermal transport properties of a variety of molecular systems. These
include but are not limited to: molecular organization at surfaces and transport behavior of
metal phthalocyanine, Co-based valence tautomers and Fe spin crossover compounds.

Prof. Buongiorno Nardelli is a pioneer of the development and applications of Density
Functional Theory computational methods in the study of electronic/spintronic/thermal
transport in nanostructured materials. A fellow of the APS and IOP, he is currently Professor of
Physics and Chemistry at the University of North Texas.

Computational nanoscience is a fundamental area of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology since it
allows the prediction, understanding, and confirmation of novel properties existing in matter at
the nanoscale. By developing theoretical and simulation methods it had been possible the
calculation of a large variety of physical and chemical properties of nanoparticles and other
nanostructures. These calculations are based on diverse methodologies going from
semiempirical (atomistic) approaches to quantum-mechanical first principles, ab initio
descriptions.

In this talk, we present as a useful example of the predictive capability of the computational
nanoscience, an overview of the results obtained by my research group at UNAM, on the
physicochemical properties of bare and ligand-protected metal clusters and nanoparticles.
In particular, we will discuss recent results on the chiroptical properties of small ligand-
protected gold nanoclusters [1,2], and on the vibrational properties of metal nanoparticles with
size 0.5 4 nm [3]. In addition, a discussion of the relation of these theoretical results with
experimental data and possible applications in Nanotechnology will be presented.

Grafeno y superconductividad

R. Baquero Parra

Departamento de Fsica, Centro de Investigacin y de Estudios Avanzados
del Instituto Politcnico Nacional, Mexico

Uno de los materiales que ha llamado la atencin en los ltimos tiempos es el carbono en sus
mltiples configuraciones, C_60, tubos de carbono, grafito, y, en particular, en los ltimos dos o
tres aos, el grafeno. La altsima conductividad propiciada por una dependencia lineal de las
bandas alrededor del punto K que resulta en una ecuacin que tiene la misma forma que la de
una partcula relativista de masa cero ha llamado mucho la atencin. Tratare este punto. La
investigacin actual se ha dirigido a volver al grafito por intercalacin y al grefeno por
deposicin, superconductores. Sus temperaturas son relativamente pequeas (alrededor
de 10K). Sin embargo, un tratamiento de grafeno en agua ha sido publicado donde se reporta la
presencia de superconductividad (obtenida por medios magnticos) a temperaturas del orden
de las ambientales. En esta charla analizar este reporte para concluir que, si como se
manifiesta, la superconductividad en este material es por interaccin electrn-fonn, un
anlisis a la luz de la teora de Eliashberg, muestra que la energa de los fonones existentes en
el grafeno (160 meV el ms energtico) es insuficiente para sostener una transicin de fase a
tan alta temperatura. La nica posibilidad sera que el agua se organice de tal manera que
genere fonones de aun mayor energa. La superconductividad en grafeno es uno de los temas
candentes de la investigacin actual en este campo.

Nanocomposite thin films

Universidad Nacional Autnoma de Mxico.
E-mail: ser42@iim.unam.mx

The development of materials to satisfy the requirements for sophisticated applications in the
modern world can no longer be sustained using single materials and alloys. Indeed, the
introduction of the nanoscale as a designing element has been shown to be an important
factor; as demonstrated by the many examples of improved polymeric and ceramic materials.
Similarly, the development of Nanocomposite materials is enabling rapid advancements in
structural and functional materials. In particular, thin film nanocomposite technology could
revolutionize a wide range of fields; from industrial applications in high-speed machining,
tooling, cutting, etc., to optical applications, including electronics (magnetic storage devices or
sensors), medicine and intelligent membranes for the water industry. Nanocomposite films and
coatings can achieve better properties than those expected from a simple summation of the
characteristics of the constituents, with this being, in part, due to the extraordinary size effects.
Nanocomposite films comprise at least two phases, a nanocrystalline phase embedded in a
continuous amorphous or crystalline matrix, or two nanocrystalline phases. The design of
nanocomposite films needs the considerations of many factors, for example, volume fraction,
crystallite size, surface and interfacial energy, etc., all of which depend significantly on the
materials selection, deposition methods and process parameters.
In this presentation, the use of magnetron sputtering in different configurations to create
nanocomposite thin films is presented. As mentioned above, the range of application is diverse
and depends on the base materials chosen, therefore the following examples are examined:
Aluminum nitride with Ni inclusion to enhanced hardness but also to change the optical
response, amorphous carbon-silver nanocomposite as antibacterial coatings, hard metal
nitrides with segregated silicon nitride phases for mechanical and corrosion resistance
properties and finally, self-lubricating coatings based on the addition of bismuth particles into a
hard coating matrix.
The talk gives an overview of the different deposition parameters and their influence in the
structure and properties of the films. For each nanocomposite coating, the physical properties
of interest are discussed showing that although the general idea of designing nanocomposites is
very good, in some specific cases, the materials behave in unexpected ways.

Amphidynamic crystals, molecular rotors, and molecular machines

Miguel A. Garcia-Garibay

Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry
University of California, Los Angeles
Los Angeles CA 90095-1569 USA

Amphidynamic crystals are materials designed to display engineered motion and mechanical
processes in the solid state. With a combination of order and motion they provide a promising
platform for the construction of intelligent materials and artificial molecular machines. Their
structures are based on a combination of static components designed to guide crystalline order,
and a set of dynamic elements that display controlled conformational motions. One of the
most interesting challenges in molecular structure and crystal design is the realization of
structures with components that rotate close to their limit of their moment of inertia, as the
result of barriers that are below thermal energies. While this is an unchartered territory with
interesting implications in solid state physics, research in our group has recently led to the
development of promising structural platforms based on extended solids and molecular
crystals. This contribution will discuss advances in their syntheses and self-assembly, as well as
the strategies used for their structural and dynamic characterization with the help of X-ray
diffraction and solid state NMR.

Correlations, quantum entanglement and interference in nanoscopic systems

Karen Hallberg

Centro Atmico de Bariloche, Instituto Carlos Balseiro
Argentina

Nanoscopic systems are an ideal playground to observe quantum effects. For example, the
effects of strong correlations between electrons and of quantum interference can be measured
in transport experiments through quantum dots, quantum wires, individual molecules and rings
formed by large molecules or arrays of quantum dots. In addition, quantum coherence and
entanglement can be clearly observed in quantum corrals.

One of the most intriguing features resulting from strong correlations is the separation of
charge and spin degrees of freedom in low dimensions. This effect can be directly observed in
transport experiments through Aharonov-Bohm rings. On the other hand, coherent electronic
transport through individual molecules is crucially sensitive to quantum interference, as shown
by our recent calculations of conductance through pi-conjugated annulene molecules. For
certain source-drain configurations we obtain a great reduction or even the disappearance of
conductance through the molecule, which is fully restored by symmetry-breaking
perturbations, leading to the possibility of an interesting switching effect.

Finally, elliptic quantum corrals offer an ideal system to study quantum entanglement due to
their focalising properties: two spins located at the foci of the system will strongly interact and
will form robust singlet or triplet states depending on the filling of the system. These states can
be also analyzed from the quantum information perspective, which shows the change in mutual
entanglement when the interaction between the spins and the itinerant electrons of the ellipse
is increased. These systems also show interesting quantum dynamical behavior and offer a
challenging scenario for quantum information experiments.

Topological surface states: Discovery and recent results

Zahid M. Hasan

Princeton University, USA

Topological Insulators are a new phase of electronic matter which realizes a non-quantum-Hall-
like topological state in the bulk matter and unlike the quantum Hall liquids can be turned into
superconductors at the bulk and/or at the interface. First part of this talk highlights
experimental demonstration of Z2 topological order via bulk-boundary correspondence as it its
original definition (Kane-Mele). Experimental results include demonstration of the fundamental
properties of topological insulators such as spin-momentum locking, non-trivial Berrys phases,
mirror Chern number, absence of backscattering, protection by time-reversal and other
discrete symmetries and their persistence up to the room temperature (at the level of M.Z.
Hasan and C.L. Kane, Rev. of Mod. Phys., 82, 3045 (2010). I will then present (exciting) recent
results demonstrating broken symmetry phases such as superconductivity and magnetism in
artificial hetero interfaces as well as outline the emerging experimental research frontiers of
the field of topological insulators as a whole. Time permitting; I will also present experimental
results on a new class of topological insulators beyond the Kane-Mele Z2 theory.

Studies of the thin film CdS/CdTe solar cells of high efficiency

Juan Luis Pea Chapa

CINVESTAV Mrida, Mexico

Currently, there is a technology to manufacture CdTe panels based in thin film solar cells for a large
scale production, where an important step is the chlorination for the cell activation. However, at
the industrial level it still using the treatment with CdCl
2
; that is performed with its aqueous
solution sprayed on CdTe film and subsequently heat treated, which has drawbacks because the
CdCl
2
is dangerous for the health and the liquid wastes. In recent years, Romeo et al. [1] developed
a new dry activation method.
The most common chlorination for CdTe solar cells has been performed in air; then oxygen should
play an important roll. In the present work, we report about our results using oxygen and other
gases mixtures.
Our cell has a superstrate structure and it is fabricated by sequentially depositing several layers
onto a commercial Corning glass coated with ITO. The sequence of layers: depositing by rf-
sputtering 100 nm of ZnO onto ITO/Glass and 150 nm of CdS onto ZnO/ ITO/Glass, by using CSS 8-10
m of CdTe onto CdS.; then the activation process at 400 C by using: Ar (290 mBar) + CHClF
2

(10mBar) , Ar (220 mBar) + O
2
(70mBar) + CHClF
2
(10mBar) and another mixtures of gases. After,
depositing by rf-sputtering 15 nm of Cu and 500 nm of Mo as the back contact and annealing at 200
C for 20 min. in Ar atmosphere [2] At the end, it is performed measuring curve J-V and EQE spectra
on dark and under illumination.
Although the solar cell efficiency is improved when it was activated by using Argon-CHClF
2
, the HR-
SEM shows important changes in the CdTe grains such as small holes formed by the CHClF
2

presence during the activation process. The images show the compacted and coalesced grains at
CdTe surface.
The solar cells were investigated when activated with gases such as argon-CHClF
2
-oxygen showing
that oxygen mainly improves the J
SC
, V
OC
and its efficiency. In this case, the small holes between the
grains seem have been inhibited by the oxygen, and are observing that coalesces, allowing us to
obtain a considerable improvement for series and shunt resistances. Efficiencies higher than 12%
have been obtained in the cells with areas of 1cm
2
. Work is underway to understand why there are
these improvements.

Methods of lensless imaging that are based on coherent X-ray diffraction represent powerful
tools for understanding materials at the nanoscale. In coherent diffraction imaging (CDI), an
object is illuminated with a coherent beam of X-rays and an image of the object is
reconstructed from the measured intensity of its far-field diffraction pattern. The
reconstruction processes users phase retrieval algorithms to retrieve the phases of the
(oversampled) coherent diffraction pattern. Free from the limitation of image-forming lenses,
CDI can achieve very high spatial resolution, limited only by the numerical aperture of the
scattered X-rays that are detected. By combining recent developments in experimental and
algorithmic methods it is possible to take full advantage of the high brilliance of modern X-ray
sources and to exploit various contrast mechanisms.

In this talk I will provide a brief introduction to coherent methods in the X-ray sciences and an
outline of the development of a particular implementation of coherent X-ray diffraction
imaging that employs non-planar beams. Recent applications in materials science and cellular
biology will be presented to highlight the progress and challenges in quantitative nanoscale
imaging in two- and three-dimensions. Finally, the future prospects for coherent X-ray
diffraction imaging are given, with particular emphasis on the role it can play in understanding
the relationships between structure and function in materials and biological systems

There are several studies on climate change, which focus on different factors: the increase in
atmospheric CO2, droughts, variable amount of rainfall, sudden temperature changes and the
increase of ultraviolet radiation (UV) due to the deterioration of the ozone layer by atmospheric
contaminants. The increase of UV radiation causes adverse responses in plants development,
particularly in DNA and in photosynthetic system, especially in photosystem II, therefore the
loss of photosynthetic efficiency and a foods reduction. Plants have developed several defense
systems which are related to the synthesis of anthocyanins. These compounds can protect plant
tissues by absorbing excess of light, UV radiation or by their antioxidant capacity, scavenging
UV produced reactive oxygen species. However, sometimes these mechanisms are insufficient
due to photosynthetic deficiency; therefore we have developed a new plant nutrition
technology, based on fulvalene, rotaxane and catenane nanocompounds. With this approach,
an increase in the uptake, storage and availability of monochromatic ray at 563 nm can be
achieved. This can induce the photosynthetic optimization and the reduction of metabolic
delays in the photosynthetic system. This would help to maintain the plant metabolism and
therefore the stability of the food production regardless of the adverse environmental
conditions.

Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy combined with atom and molecule
manipulation schemes create the most robust experimental setting to date at atomic and
molecular scale. In this talk, our recent achievements of atomic and molecular manipulations
on surfaces covering spintronics, superconductor, and nanomachines to nanomedicine research
areas will be presented. In spintronic area, we will present imaging and manipulation of atomic
spin using a spin-polarized STM tip [1]. In nanoscale superconductivity area, donor-acceptor
type charge transfer based molecular superconducting systems will be shown [2]. We will
discuss proximity effect of nanoscale molecular superconductors and metal boundaries as well
as molecule-metal interfaces. In molecular machine area, operations of complex molecular
machines on surfaces using STM manipulation will be shown. Finally, we will demonstrate the
extension of STM manipulation technique to biology where our recent achievements of
manipulation and sequencing of individual proteins will be presented. These innovative
experiments are tailored to address several critical issues covering fundamental understanding
as well as demonstration of novel atom/molecule based devices on materials surfaces at the
nanoscale.

Magnetic anisotropy, exchange bias effect and orthogonal spin configuration in
FM/AFM bilayers

Marek Przybylski

Academic Centre of Materials and Nanotechnology

AGH University of Science and Technology, Krakw, Poland
Max-Planck-Institut fr Mikrostrukturphysik, Halle, Germany

The exchange bias effect has been widely investigated in systems presenting in-plane
anisotropy and has been applied, e.g., in spin-valve based devices. However, the mechanism
responsible for this effect is still not fully understood due to difficulties in determination of the
antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin configuration. The existing models explain the exchange bias
effect for uncompensated AFM surfaces assuming a collinear FM (ferromagnetic)/AFM
exchange coupling at the interfaces. However, for fully compensated FM/AFM interfaces theory
predicts that the AFM and FM spins can be coupled orthogonally [1].

As an example, I will discuss the magnetic properties of Fe/NiO bilayers grown on vicinal (step)
surfaces of Ag(001). The easy magnetization axis of the Fe film in the Fe/NiO switches from
parallel to perpendicular to the steps at the NiO thickness the AFM order is established, and
back to the step direction at the NiO thickness corresponding to its structural relaxation. I will
show that the two in-plane spin reorientation transitions (SRTs) in the Fe film are forced by
perpendicular coupling between the Fe and NiO spins at the Fe/NiO interface [2].

Even more important candidates for developing new technologies are the systems combining
magnetic out-of-plane anisotropy and perpendicular exchange bias. I will discuss the FM/AFM
coupling in this case showing the effect of AFM on the anisotropy of FM films. For example, Ni
films grown on Pd(001) show perpendicular easy magnetization axis approximately up to a
thickness of 17 monolayers (at room temperature). The result confirms the volume character of
perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of Ni, which is related to the tetragonal distortion of Ni
grown on the strongly mismatching substrates like Pd(001). Co-deposition of fully-compensated
AFM (like CoO or NiO) on top of Ni/Pd(001) changes the anisotropy of the system. At
temperatures lower than Nel temperature of AFM, the CoO/Ni/Pd(001) bilayers show
perpendicular magnetization and perpendicular exchange bias effect up to the thickness of Ni
much larger than the thickness up to which Ni films on Pd(001) show perpendicular anisotropy.
The effect is explained by perpendicular FM/AFM coupling, which is found to persist also in the
case the easy magnetization axis of FM is oriented perpendicular to the sample plane [3].

Combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) calculations were used to
explore the electron pathway involved in the suicide inactivation of cytochrome CYPBM3 from
Bacillus megaterium. An extensive mapping of residues involved in electron transfer routes was
obtained from density functional calculations on activated heme (i.e. Compound I) and selected
amino acid residues. Identification of oxidizable residues (electron donors) was performed by
selectively activating/deactivating different quantum regions. This method allowed a rational
identification of key oxidizable targets in order to replace them for less oxidizable residues by
site-directed mutagenesis. The residues W96 and F405 were consistently predicted by the
QM/MM electron pathway to hold high spin density; single and double mutants of P450BM3 on
these positions (W96A, F405L, W96A/F405L) resulted in a more stable variants in the presence
of hydrogen peroxide, displaying a similar reaction rate than CYPBM3 21B3.

Recently, the encapsulation of enzymes inside VLPs or other protein cages has been a fast
growing topic because of its implications in biocatalysis as well as their potential as enzymatic
delivery systems. We report for the first time the encapsulation of a CYP450 which belong to a
family of enzymes medically and industrially important. The CYPBM3 21B3 from Bacillus
megaterium, mutant 21B3which has improved peroxigenase activity, as a model of this family
of enzymes since it is stable and soluble in aqueous media, and it can be produced in large
quantities, as opposed to human CYP. CYPBM3 21B3 has been encapsulated inside two
different VLPs through a charge complementarity strategy. The VLPs used were CCMV and VP1
from murine poliomavirus, these capsids differ in size, porosity and charge of the inside surface.
The encapsulation of CYP inside CCMV was favored by the fact that the enzyme (-) and the
interior of the capsid (+) have opposite charge at pH 7.2. A range of molar ratio of viral protein
to CYP were assayed (1.3-60:1) finding encapsulation at the 1.3:1 ratio. This particular
stoichiometry has the characteristic of having a cero net charge. The VLPs formed have an
average diameter of 19.9 nm, which is smaller than the reported for the empty capsid (28 nm).
For the VP1-CYP encapsulation three different molar ratio of viral protein to enzyme were
assayed (3:1, 5:1, 10:1), only finding nanostructures with CYP activity in the 10:1 stoichiometry.
In this case to promote the interaction of the CYP with the negatively charged interior of the
VP1 capsid we chemically modified the surface of the enzyme with ethylenediamine to increase
the number of positively charged groups at pH 8. The VLPs formed have an average diameter of
23.6 nm.

It is still to be determined the exact number of CYPs encapsulated in each VLP, as well as
complete enzymatic characterization of the biocatalytic VLPs. Nevertheless, we have
demonstrated that it is possible to encapsulate the CYPBM3 inside CCMV and VP1 VLPs using a
charge complementarity approach. The encapsulation of this CYP450 in viral structures will
provide a model for the design of bioatallytically nanoparticles with potential medical
applications.

Silicon nitride (Si

) is one of the most important ceramics used for structural applications.
Brazing is a metal-joining process where a filler metal is heated above its melting point and
distributed between two or more closefitting parts. This process is considered to be one of the
simplest and by far the most widely methods used to join ceramics to metals based on melting,
wetting and solidification of a liquid film between the base materials.

samples prepared by the Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) technique, which had
different amount of oxide additives, were used as disc-preforms. The surfaces of the materials
to be bonded during the brazing process (ceramic, metal and filler) were previously coated with
thin layer of silver and then stacked together with these preforms. Interface assemblies
produced were sandwich-like specimens of Si

/Cu-Zn/Nb/Cu-Zn/AISI304 combinations joined
at 1000C using 5, 20, and 40 min holding times under an inert atmosphere. Analysis by
scanning electron microscopy revealed un-joined zones between the ceramic and metallic parts
after 5 min treatment, whereas from 20 min, homogenous and non-porous Si

interfaces were obtained.

The thickness of resultant ceramic-metal interface increased from ~10 to >25 m as the holding
time was increased. It is found that the amount of additives used during the preparation of

ceramics has a direct effect on the decomposition rate of Si

during the joining process.
The largest decomposition of Si
3
N

was observed at 1000
o
C/40min from the less dense ceramic
preforms (4wt% of additives in this case), which in turn induced the migration of Si atoms
through the interface to promote the formation of Si-based components. In contrast, when
using larger amount of additives (8wt%) during sintering of the ceramic preforms it becomes
more difficult for nitrogen and silicon to dissociate upon brazing. Therefore, when diffusion rate
of Si is low, it migrates towards the metal part, which limits the formation of Si-based
components.

The properties of nanostructured porous matrix filled by a substance strongly depend on the
density of atoms in nanochannels. The dense filling of the channels by atoms and molecules

consequence of practical applications and diversity of models, but there is lack of the

Duetothecomplexityofthegeometrythepuretheoreticalresultsarelimitedandthemajority

packings produce densities from 0.74, which is given by Keplers conjecture for the compact
face centered cubic lattice and is used as the density upper limit, up to 0.64 and 0.56, for the
random close and lose packings, respectively. The maximal density can be obtained with

numerical simulation, based on the geometrical properties, wall effects, stable position of a

has been considered as: (A) nondoped with a hydrogen vacancy, and doped in two main
configurations; (B) with an aluminum replacing a hydrogen atom and (Cn; n=1, 2, 3) with an
aluminum replacing a silicon atom at a lattice site. In addition, three supercells; 4x4, 3x3 and
2x2 have been explored for both nondoped and doped silicane. The nondissociative
adsorption takes place in geometries (A), (C1), (C2) and (C3) while the dissociative in (B).
Adsorption energies of the dissociative case are larger than those corresponding to the non
dissociated cases. In the dissociative adsorption, the molecule is fragmented in a HS structure

The growing demands technology and industrial applications catch the interest of researchers
for developing new materials [1, 2] in application to different areas like communications,
computations, automations, biomedical, space. Considering the physical parameters
(conductivity,permittivity,skindepthandpermeability)ofthedevelopingmaterialwefocused
to work with ferrites because of its easy design versatility with many types of material
compounds and also installation alternatives. The properties of ferrites are also dominated by
chemicalcomposition,crystallinestructure,grainsizeandnatureofporosity[13].

Erbium and yttrium have unique properties which find extensive application in field emission
and photoluminescence applications. Efforts to produce nanoparticles of these metals
supported have been reported recently. We present a comparative study between
microemulsion method and microwaveassisted method on the decoration of carbon
nanotubes with erbium and yttrium nanoparticles. Erbium (III) nitrate pentahydrated and
yttrium (III) nitrate hexahydrated were used as metal sources. Dioctil sodium sulfosuccinate
(AOT) was used as surfactant. NaBH

was used as a reducing agent. Multiwalled carbon
nanotubes were produced by spray pyrolysis of alphapinene and purified by a conventional
acidic treatment. The microemulsion method was performed by conventional mixing and
heating. Microwave method was performed in a Synthos 3000 microwave reactor. The
producedcompositeswerecharacterizedbyHRTEM,Ramanspectrosocopy,TGAandXRD.The
photoluminescence were also evaluated. The results indicate that the microwave method
produced smaller and more homogeneously dispersed metal nanoparticles on the surface of

The interest on the production of nanocellulose and its technological applications is growing
constantlyduetothehighstrengthandstiffness,lowweightandbiodegradabilityexhibitedby
cellulose nanostructures. In this work we propose the use of garden waste as an abundant
nanocelluloseresource.Gardenwastefromurbanareasisconstantlyincreasinganditisusually
anunderutilizedresourcebecauseithasnotawelldefinedproductionfunction.Incomparison
with the use of forest residues, garden waste is much more suitable for the nanocellulose
extractionbecauseitsusedoesnotimpactonthebalanceofnaturalecosystems.
We extracted nanocellulose from both green and brown garden waste. The nanocellulose
extraction was done by a chemical method, using sulfuric acid as hidrolyzing agent. The final
productwasobtainedintheformofpowder,afterwashingitwithdistilledwateranddryingit
at 78 C for 5 Hr. The structural and morphological features corresponding to each one of the
nanocellulose samples were studied by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Xray
diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM); the results are compared and
discussed, paying special attention at the differences existing between the nanocellulose
samplesobtainedfromeachoneofthetwodifferentwasteresources.
The method here proposed for nanocellulose extraction is industrial scalable and
enviromentally friendly, it facilitates the use of nanocellulose in biomedical applications,
polymercompositesandinthepulpandpaperindustries.

Los sistemas multibarreras en grafeno estn siendo ampliamente estudiados tericamente

dada la variedad de efectos o mecanismos que se pueden emplear para generarlos: campo
electrosttico, campo magntico, interaccin con sustratos, esfuerzos, hidrogenacin e

Recently, semiconductor nanostructures have received great attention in the photovoltaics

fieldbecauseoftheirpotentialapplicationsasbacksidereflectorsforlightconfinementinthin
film solar cells. Especially, Germanium (Ge) nanostructures like porous Germanium (pGe) and
Germanium nanowires (GeNWs) are attractive for the higher electron mobility of Ge with
respect of Silicon which make them suitable for applications such as in biological sensing,
optoelectronics, electrochemistry materials, and solar cells. However there have only been a
few theoretical works, which try to characterize the vibrational properties of these materials,
which are important because many of its properties that can be understood in terms of
phonons such as the Raman scattering and infrared response. The vibrational dispersion
relationsofpGeandGeNWswerecalculatedusingtheabinitiodensityfunctionalperturbation
theory with the generalized gradient approximation using normconserving pseudopotentials.
The germanium nanostructures were modeled using the supercell technique [12]. To address
the difference in the confinement between the pores and the nanowires, we calculated the
vibrationaldensityofstatesofthetwomaterials.Theresultsindicatethatthereisaslightshift
in the highest optical modes in the frequency interval with mainly Ge contribution to the
vibrational spectrum in all of the nanostructures due to the phonon confinement effects. Low
diameterGeNWsexhibitareducedphononconfinementcomparedwithhighlyporousGewith
a similar confinement distance, due to the mixed Gedihydride vibrational modes around the
maximum bulk Ge optical mode of approximately 300 cm
1
; however, the general effects of
such confinements could still be noticed, such as the shift to lower frequencies of the highest
opticalmodebelongingtotheGevibrations.

Sintering is used to consolidate a mass of powders throughout exchange of matter between

particles at temperatures under the melting point by using different diffusion mechanisms.
Sinteringisaprocessstronglyinfluencedbythepowderscharacteristics,likesizeandshapeof
particles, chemical composition and green packing. Particularly, the behavior of nanoparticles
during sintering is different compared to microparticles because theyhave higher energy due
toitssize. Thus,differentdiffusion mechanismscouldappearduringnanosinteringenhancing
the grain growth in consequence the nanostructure is lost. Additionally the non
thermodynamicallystablepowders,inducesanexcessivegraingrowthbecausethetransitionof
phases.Thereforeisimportanttocontrolthephasetransitionconditionsinordertoassessthe
optimalparameterstoobtainnanostructuredbulkmaterials.Theaimofthisworkisstudythe
evolution of the alumina transition nanopowders during the microwave sintering. To achieve
our goal, spherical Jalumina powders TAEMICRON with an average of 50 nm were used.
Powders were isostatically pressed by using an isostatic press with mobile box fabricated by
AVURE. The green density obtained by this procedure ranged between0.48 and 0.5. Then the
compacts were sintering in a typical unimodal microwave furnace with a 2.5 GHz frequency.
Sintering was carried out under air atmosphere at temperatures between 1100 and 1500C
with a heating rate of 100 y 200C/min with a sintering plateau of 5 minutes. The relative
densityofthecompactswasestimatedbyArquimidezbeforeandaftersintering.Theevolution
ofthephasetransitionswasfollowedbyDSC/TGAexperimentsbetween800and1500C.Right
after,theactualexistentphaseswereconfirmedbyXRDexperiments.Finallythesampleswere
cut and polished in order to observe the microstructure with the aid of SEM. We found 4
different transition phases from the gibbsite to the corundum which is the stable phase. We
assessed the temperature for each one of those phases which ranged between 7501100C. It
was found that alumina can reduce the grain growth. Secondary phases were obtained by
microwave sintering when 100C/min or higher heating rates were used. We found that
increasing the heating rate helps to the control of Talumina. However the relative density is
lower than that obtained with lower heating rates. The final grain size after sintering was 500
nm for samples with density higher than 90%. We conclude that microwave sintering allows
enhancingthepropertiesofthebulknanomaterials.

Cancer has become one of the main causes of death around the world. Treatment of some
types of cancer is difficult because diagnosis techniques are limited. Among all the different
cancers, Adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction is not easy to diagnose since
commonly, the symptoms are confused with other gastric disorders and the tumor grows
obstructing the gastric tube and at this time, the patient is out of treatment. Recently, we

demonstrated significant cytotoxic effect by decreasing the size of treated tumors. A clinical
trialiscurrentlyundergoingtostudybiosafetyofthesenanoparticleswhenisadministratedin
terminal cancer patients. Here we present a clinical case of a 49 years old male, with
Adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction diagnosed on March 2011. Endoscopic
findings showed esophagus with a cylindrical mass with irregular and friable borders, from 37
cm to 41 cm in the lower third of the esophagus, stomach and retroflexion with tumor mass.
The patient was classified as non surgical candidate and ELOXATIN y EPIRUBICINA
chemotherapy was prescribed and despite of the treatment, the patient showed no

SLN and CLZ in mixed micelles (MM) were studied. The in vitro permeability of CLZ was
increasedwhenassociatedwithCLZSLN,andwasdecreasedincaseofMM.Theoccurrenceof
myoclonus and generalized seizures, as well as the tonic convulsions induced by PTZ in mice
was significantly prevented by CLZ, but also significantly prevented when the same doses of
CLZSLNwereadministeredviaperos(p.o.)comparedtoCLZinsolution.Thebehaviorseverity
and EEG of the paroxystic activity induced with PTZ in rats were significantly reduced in
presence of CLZ alone (0.3 mg/kg) and almost totally prevented in rats receiving the CLZSLN
(equivalent to 0.3 mg/kg). No difference was observed between CLZMM and vehicle on EEG
recording. Frequency and duration of the spikeswave and convulsive behavior was significant

Oxidative stress has been implicated in several neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimers
disease and vitagenes. In this sense, the use of antioxidants has been recognized as an important
counter measure against conditions in which oxidative stress is concerned. This work was started
withthegoaltoshowthepotentialuseofferulicacid(FA),anaturalantioxidant,intercalatedintoa
biocompatibleZnAllayereddoublehydroxide(LDH).Thematerialswerecharacterizedstructurally,
texturallyandmorphologically,andthentestedintwoimportantapplications:Ontheonehandas

to 14.5 . As the layerthickness is4.3, the gallery height in
ZnAlFAbecomes10.2,withinrangethatpreviouslyhasbeenreportedforsomephenolicanions.
A gallery height of 10.2 suggested that FA anions were arranged in the interlayer region as a
monolayer with the main axis perpendicular to the layer plane of LDH. FTIR spectrum of ZnAlFA
hybrid showed the antisymmetric and symmetric stretching modes of carboxylate group at 1592
and 1399 cm

, respectively, confirming that ferulate anion has been intercalated.

results suggest that relaxing behavior of aluminum in LDH ismodified by the presence of the high
electronicdensitycomingforFAanions.Ontheotherhand,

CCPMASNMRspectrashowedthat
with intercalation, all peak resonances of FA became significantly broader which can be explained
by a reduction in the motion of the molecule, which is greatly appreciated in a drug delivery
material. In the absence of FA the layered sample is roughed, formed by nanoparticles
agglomerated to done particles with likestone morphology, whereas with the FA the particles

the FA containing samples. ZnAlFA isa prolonged release system that provides more than 98% of
the drug after 8 hours, compared to FA diffusion that exhibits it at 2.36 hours. The release of the
drug from the matrix occurs through a concentrationdependent diffusion mechanism related to
time, together with ion exchange. It was demonstrate the potential use of FA into the LDH as an

The presence of pharmaceutical residues in waste waters, as same as their effects on aquatic life
and human health have been widely reported for several decades as potentially harmful for living
ecosystems. The presence of analgesics, antibiotics, antiepileptics, hormones and many other

ecosystems. Trimethoprim usually combined with sulfamethoxazole has been widely used for

Recently, upconversion fluorescence from lanthanidedoped nanocrystals has attracted much

attentionduetothepotentialapplicationsassensitivebiolabelings,asimprovedalternativesto
fluorophoresandQuantumDots(QDs).Zirconiumandyttriumoxideisanexcellentmaterialin
photonic applications due to its optical properties and low phonon energy, also can easily be
doped with rare earth due to its structure; in this particular case they were doped with
ytterbium and erbium. The interest on the rare earth doped nanophosphors is to produce
emission in the visible for a width range of application such as solid state lighting, new
generation television screen, biomedical diagnostics and photodynamic therapy etc. The main
advantage of this approximation is the absence of absorption by tissue avoiding the self
fluorescence.Zirconiumoxidenanoparticlesdopedwithlanthanidesandfunctionalizedwitha
thin silica layer will be used with the purpose of allowing the nanoparticles adherence to the
tissue though antibodies or proteins added to the shell. The silica shell can prevent possible
toxic effects from the nanoparticles and have a surface that facilitates the conjugation with
biomolecules.

The development and the fundamental study of nanomagnetic materials is of great relevance
today due to the miniaturizing tendency of the electronics in general and to the potential
developmentofeverlargerandlargermagneticmemorycapacities.Abetterunderstandingof
the full dynamics of the magnetization,m(t), of a nanomagnet under different excitation
schemesisdesiredinordertodevelopnanomagneticdevices.
In this work, we focus on the nonlinear dynamics of an isotropic, singledomain (nanometric)

magnet,m(t), under ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) excitation conditions, i.e.; aZeeman

these kinds ofisotropic nanomagnets,obeying simultaneously LL and Kittel equations, there
exists a final asymptotic state,m(t), which is a limit cycle(
asyn
,
asyn
), that is reached in a
time,t
asyn
, shorter than 70ns. In such state,
asyn
is constant and
asyn
is linear in time. The
dynamics ofm(t) is pure precession but at an angle,
asyn
,rather large. This dynamics is as
described in regular linear treatments of FMR, but we find that
asyn
, can reach values up
to
asyn
=21, far beyond what a perturbation is expected to produce. And quite unexpectedly,
the dynamics ofm(t) in terms of(, ) and (
) is very complex before reaching the limit

cycle.
Under these conditions, the LandauLifshitzdamping parameter,(in our calculations0.003)

strongly affect the onset and radius of these limit cycles. So, the equation of motion form(t)

Nowadays the growing demand for novel miniaturized and more functional passive non
reciprocal microwave devices has motivated very much research activity around
nanotechnologyandnanosciences.Thishaspromotedtheapplicationofnovelstructuresbased
on nanocomposite materials, which consist of a very large number of magnetic nanoobjects
embeddedinaporoushostmatrixwithpropertiesthatareonlycharacteristicatthenanoscale.
Forinstance,nanocompositeslikethesocalledmagneticnanowiredsubstratesareselfbiased,
so the application of an external magnetic field using electromagnets is unnecessary, which in
turnleadtoasignificantminiaturizationofpotentialdevicesbasedonthesesystems[13].
In this work we present a study, on one hand, on the realization of magnetic nanowired
substrates with specific geometric factors and magnetic properties. This has been achieved by
controlling the nanocomposites microstructure by using an electrodeposition technique for
obtaining an asymmetrical growth of the nanowires inside a nanoporous template. On the
other hand, we present results on the application of magnetic nanowired substrates for
obtainingamicrowavenonreciprocalbehavior,whichisobservedfromthedifferencebetween
the microwave absorption in the forward and backward directions using a microstrip line
geometry. This behavior can be tuned by an adequate choice of the nanowires materials, but
also by controlling the nanowire array geometry, which lead to a microwave absorption
dependenceonthepermittivityandpermeabilityofthemagneticnanowiredsubstrate.

Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are 1D semiconductor nanostructures that have been extensively
studied theoretical and experimentally in the recent years due to their potential applications.
For the development of SiNWs technologies is important to have knowledge of the cross

interesting phonon mode, which is the so called Radial breathing mode (RBM). This mode has
been studied in 1D nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes which consist on a radial
expansion and contraction of the nanotube. The RBM frequency depends on the diameter of
thenanotube.SiNWsarealso1Dnanostructuresandisexpectedthatakindofradialbreathing

radial breathing mode is identified through the eigenvectors of each vibrational frequency in
the Gamma point [12] the rest of the vibrational modes is analyzed through partial phonon
density of states to identify the main contributors to the phonon vibration at determined

RBM frequency and a shift to lower frequencies of the highest frequency optical modes

intermetallic alloys were synthesized by conventional cast. In
order to study the structural stability during ball milling, these alloys were worked in the
mechanical process for 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 h. The mechanical milling processing was carried out
using hardened steel vials and balls with a weight to balls ratio of 5.6. The structural and
chemicalcharacterizations were conducted by Xray diffraction, scanning electronmicroscopy,
transmission electron microscopy. After 5h of milling, the experimental results indicated a

silicon nanowires (3CSiCNWs) are studied. The nanowires are modeled in the [110], [111]
directionusingthesupercellscheme[13],where,atafirstinstance,allsurfacedanglingbonds
are passivated with H atoms. In order to study the effect of surface dangling bonds some
hydrogen atoms are removed in specific positions along the nanowire surface. To analyze the
oxygeneffectinthesurfaceoftheNWs,twohydrogenatomsarereplacedbyoneoxygenatom
creating two types of bridge bonds SiOSi and COC for the [110] oriented nanowires while
double bonds (Si=O, C=O) are modeled for the [111] direction. Electronic band structure and
density of states of the fully and partially saturated 3CSiCNWs were calculated based on spin
polarizeddensityfunctionaltheoryschemeusingtheGeneralizedGradientApproximation.The
exchange correlation functional used was a revised version of the PerdewBurkeErnzerhof

showthatforthedanglingbondconfigurationinthe[110]nanowire,adifferentbandstructure

which create a dihydride in the surface. Meanwhile, a similar behavior can be observed when
the dangling bonds in the 3CSiCNWs grown in [111] are created along layers that contain C
atoms in the surface. The half metallic nature of these nanowires is still to be addressed,
however the results are encouraging towards the magnetic properties engineering of this
nanostructure, opening the possibility of implement such nanowires in the spintronics field.

In the last years semiconductor nanostructures have attracted great attention because of the
enhancedelectronicandopticalproperties.NanoporouscubicSiliconcarbide(pSiC)isofspecial
interest due to its potential applications in optoelectronics, communications and as fast
response gas sensors, which can operate on harsh environments of high frequencies and
temperatures. On the other hand vibrational properties are of great interest in the
characterization of these materials since physical phenomena such as the Raman, IR response
andheatconductivityofthematerialcanbeunderstoodintermsofphonons.Inthisworkwe
study the vibrational band structure and density of states of pSiC by means of the abinitio
DensityFunctionalTheoryusingthegeneralizedgradientapproximationwitharevisedversion
of Perdew Burke Ernzerhof (RPBE) exchange correlation functional using normconserving
pseudopotentials. The porous structures were modeled using the supercell scheme [13] by
removing atoms along the [001] direction of an otherwise perfect SiC crystal, producing
different surface chemistries one only with Silicon (Sirich) and other with Carbon (Crich)
atoms. All surface dangling bonds are saturated with H atoms. The phonon dispersion and
densityofstateswerecalculatedthroughthefinitedisplacementalgorithm.Resultsshowthat
low porosity structures are unstable since their phonon spectrum has imaginary frequencies
that point to a mechanical instability. In the high porosity case only the Crich structures are

Since the discovery in the late eighties that gold is catalytically active when it is dispersed as small
particlesonanoxidesupport,thepreparationofgoldbasedcatalystshasbeenwidelystudied.Theyare
active in many reactions of both industrial and environmental importance. The most remarkable
catalytic properties of supported gold have been obtained for the reaction of CO oxidation at ambient
temperature. However catalytic activity decreases during the catalytic run. Deactivation has been
proposed to be due to nanoparticles sintering or to formation of carbonates adsorbed on the reactive
sitesofthecatalysts.Awaytoovercomethedeactivationprocessistoproduceoxygenvacanciesonthe
surface of the support particles. These oxygen vacancies generate crystalline defects that work as
pinning centers for the gold particles. The steps on the surface of the support particles are also
crystallinedefectsthatcouldworkaspinningcentersforthegoldparticles.Theoreticalcalculationshave
demonstrated that the gold particles bind stronger to a defectrich surface than to a defectdeficient
surfaceandthatasignificantchargetransferoccursfromthetitaniasupporttotheAuparticles.
Gold catalysts supported on TiO
2
doped with Y (1, 3 and 6 wt % of Y) were prepared by deposition
precipitation with urea method [1]. The YTiO
2
supports were prepared by the solgel method. The
catalysts were characterized by Xray diffraction, nitrogen physical adsorption (BET method),
Photoluminescence, UVvisible, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, H
2
TPR, High Resolution Transmission
Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and highangle annular darkfield scanning transmission electron
microscopy (HAADF). The catalytic activity and stability of the catalysts in the CO oxidation was
performedusingareactorcoupledtoaGCanalyticalapparatus.
The YTiO
2
supports prepared by the solgel method allowed the formation of solids with high specific
surface area. The BET surface area of YTiO
2
prepared by the solgel method increased with the Y
content because the increase of the Y content on the support prevented the growth of the crystallite
size of the anatase crystals. Because of the big difference in the atomic radius of Y
3+
and Ti
4+
, the
substitutionofTi
4+
byY
3+
cationsinthetitaniaframeworkwaslimitedtolowYloadings.Highcontentsof
Y produced the segregation of yttrium as Y

on the surface of TiO

(199), in which it is proposed that all Y was doping TiO
2
. This
behaviorisrelatedtothestronganchoringofthegoldparticlesonthestructuraldefectsofthesupport
caused by the doping of anatase with yttrium, which naturally gives rise to structures with oxygen
vacancies. HRTEM results show that at high content of Y, Y
2
O
3
is segregated on the surface of TiO
2
. As
Y
2
O
3
is a not reducible oxide, when it was on the TiO
2
surface, the catalytic activity of the Au/YTiO
2
catalyst decreased; however, it was always higher than that obtained from Au/TiO
2
at room
temperature and higher temperatures. The higher stability of the Au/YTiO
2
catalysts compared with
that of the Au/TiO
2
catalyst is due to lower carbonate formation and to lower gold particle sintering
duringthereaction[1].

combination with materials that provide mechanical resistance. Bismuth sputtered films for
mechanotribologicalapplicationsanditsadditionintometalnitridecoatingshavebeenpoorly

achieve a stable and adhered coating. In this work, we report the deposition of Bismuth

the coatings was obtained by both Xray photoelectron, to clearly detect the presence of

Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) were synthesized using an organic precursor (

pinene) by spray pyrolysis method. Subsequently, bimetallic nanoparticles were impregnated
directly on the MWCNT by using a microwave assisted hydrothermal method. After, samples
were dried and calcined at 450 C. Then, catalysts were activated through a reductive
atmospheretreatment(H

).Sampleswerecharacterizedbydifferenttechniques:nitrogen
adsorptiondesorption (BET), Xray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM),
temperatureprogrammed thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Additionally, their catalytic
propertieswereevaluatedinthehydrodesulfurizationreactionofdibenzothiophene(DBT).The
reactions were carried out in a batch reactor at T = 320 C, pressure of 800 psi and stirring of
700rpm.
The evaluated catalysts showed catalytic activity in the HDS of DBT (FeMo > CoMo). It was
concluded that the decrease in the catalytic activity for the CoMo catalyst was caused by the
formation of agglomerates of bimetallic nanoparticles that possibly were formed by the
additionofahigherpercentageofmetaloxidesintheimpregnationstep.ForFeMocatalyst,it
was observed a better dispersion of active phase which led to a better catalytic activity in the
HDSreaction.

Friction and wear are crucial properties in nanoelectromechanical systems due to the high
surfacevolume ratio. As a consequence in the last decade, there has been much scientific
interest in superlubricity. Superlubricity is the phenomena in which friction ceases to exist or
diminishes substantially between two solid surfaces. To date all structural superlubricity
experimental evidence has been obtained under vacuum conditions. Zheng et al. displaced
graphiteislandswithaheightof200nmwithvaryinglongitudesfrom0.5to5mandobserved
theislandsspontaneouslyreturnedtoitsoriginalposition.Thepreviousbehaviorwasobserved
and constantly repeated for islands with longitudes of 0.5 and 1 m. This phenomenon is
similar to the auto retraction movement in carbon nanotube walls due to the van der Waals
interactionssimulatedbyRiveraetal.
Molecular dynamics simulations were preformed to reproduce experimental results obtained
byZhengetal.Thesystemstudiedconsistedofablockofgraphite,representedbysix(6)layers
of graphene of equal size and a smaller graphene flake. Molecular dynamic simulations
consisted of displacing the flake and observing its behavior. The force field potential used
consisted of a Lennard Jones potential and flexible interactions. The flake dimensions were
variedtoobservethesizeeffect.
Next goal was to reduce flake rotations. Its important to note that the flake movement
mechanismconsistedinoscillationsfromoneendofthegraphiteblocktotheotherendaftera
period of time; the flake would rotate around the equilibrium center of mass. When rotating,
wesuspectthattheflakelosesallusefulmovement.Apossiblesolutiontoreducerotationswas
tomodifytheupperlayerofthegraphiteblock.Alineofcarbonatomswasremovedinsucha
way to provide a path or trajectory that the flake could follow and not deviate to the sides
and thus reducing rotations. Finally, a system of graphite blocks was put in parallel to provide
transportfromoneextremetoanother.
Inordertodevelopanapplicationforthisphenomenon,blocksweresetupinaseriesofblocks
in a straight line separated by a minimum difference. This arrangement provided insightful
information with respect to friction forces involved in the flake displacement from graphite

KynurenicAcid(KYNA)hasimportanttherapeuticeffectsinneurologicaldisorders;however,its
use as a neuroprotective agent is restricted due to its very limited ability to cross the blood
brain barrier (BBB). For this reason we are looking for new alternative ways to make KYNA
reaches the brain; one of them is using drug delivery systems. In reported works we have

adsorbed on silica of the SBA15 type, which was previously prepared. Once the KYNAsilica
materials were obtained these were characterized with several physical techniques. The
ultraviolet and infrared spectroscopy techniques reveal that KYNA did not undergo any
structural change after this was hosted in the silica materials. The N

measures revel that the surface area values of KYNAsilica materials, which were compared
with the pure silica materials values, substantially decreased by the addition of the drug. The
electronic micrographs show that the solgel KYNASilica material is conformed for aggregates
of nanoparticles, which have sizes around of 50 nm. In the other hand, the typical hexagonal

In this work, we report a theoretical study of the vibrational spectrum, vibrational density of
states(VDOS)andcaloricpropertiesofAunanoclusterswithfccstructureasafunctionoftheir
size. Our study is performed by using Gupta potential to determine the vibrational spectrum
and focuses on the behavior of the specific heat in the lowtemperature regime. The results
show that the VDOS of small clusters is very different from the Au bulk one. The main
difference is the existence of an acoustic gap in the vibrational spectrum which diminishes
when the cluster size increases. The results also show that the effect of the acoustic gap is
reflecteddirectlyinthebehaviorofthespecificheatattheverylowtemperatureregionwhere
we found that the specific heat path diminishes faster than the Debye T

The effect of percolation concerns the movement of electrons in materials, higher carrier
mobilities mean that charges are transported to the electrodes more quickly; which reduces
current losses via recombination. Therefore, polymer photovoltaic devices rely on the
introduction of another material for electron transport, which also provides the interface for
charge transfer, producing the percolation effect. In this work, we present hybrid
heterojunction devices based on polymer poly3(hexalthiophene) (P3HT) and bismuth sulfide
nanorods. Bismuth sulfide (Bi

effective hole transport material. Bi

is a metal chalcogenide semiconductor, the optical
absorption spectrum is in the visible and nearinfrared part of the solar spectrum, and these
make it interesting for solar cell application. And the other hands, dispersing the inorganic

The present work addresses the fundamental question of membrane elasticity of ceramide
layers with a special focus on the plastic regime. The compression and shear viscoelasticity of
eggceramideLangmuirmonolayerswereinvestigatedusingoscillatorysurfacerheologyinthe
linear regime and beyond. High compression and shear moduli were measured at room
temperature, a clear signature for a solid behavior. At deformations larger than one per mill,
eggceramide monolayers display plastic features characterized by a decrease of the storage
modulusfollowedbyaviscousregimetypicaloffluidlipids.Thisbehaviorisaccompaniedbya
marked decrease of the loss modulus with increasing stress above a yield point. The results
permit to univocally classify ceramide monolayers as 2Dsolids able to undergo plastic
deformations, at the difference of typical fluid lipid monolayers. These unusual features are
likely to have consequences in the mechanical behavior of ceramiderich emplacements in
biologicalmembranes.

Arrays of nanotubes (NTs) either continuous or in multilayer have recently gained a lot of
interest since they are promising for future applications and devices [13]. Cylindrical
nanotubesareexpectedtoshowabehaviorclosetothatofNWs,howeverdifferencesbetween
themareknownandtheyrelatetothedemagnetizingfactorandtheirvolume,inparticularthe
volume difference changes the effective packing fraction and thus the value of the dipolar

Inthiswork,thedipolarinteractionfieldinarraysoftallnickelnanotubeshasbeeninvestigated
bymeansofexpressionsderivedfromtheeffectivedemagnetizingfieldoftheassemblyaswell
asmagnetometrymeasurementsandcomparisonwiththecorrespondingsolidnanowires.The
results show that the interaction field in nanotubes is smaller than the one in solid nanowires
and these differences have been related to the lowering of the packing fraction in nanotubes
with respect to nanowires due to their inner cavity. Furthermore, the dependence of the
