    Rydberg noisy dressing and applications in making soliton molecules and droplet quasicrystals

    Abstract
    The current advances in the field of ultracold atoms and atomic traps recall new controllable long-range interactions. These interactions are expected to extend the range of realizable quantum algorithms as well as provide new control mechanisms for the new types of quantum matters. This Letter presents special interatomic interactions between Rydberg-dressed atoms by manipulating the lasers' linewidth. The proposed interaction features a hybrid spatial profile containing plateaus and Gaussian peaks. Combined with dynamic control over the sign and strength of individual interaction elements, the Rydberg noisy-dressing (RnD) scheme provides a valuable interaction toolbox for quantum... 

    Analysis of pull-in instability of electrostatically actuated carbon nanotubes using the homotopy perturbation method

    , Article Journal of Mechanics of Materials and Structures ; Volume 8, Issue 8-10 , 2013 , Pages 385-401 ; 15593959 (ISSN) Fakhrabadi, M. M. S ; Rastgoo, A ; Ahmadian, M. T ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    This paper analyzes the deflection and pull-in behaviors of cantilever and doubly clamped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) under electrostatic actuation using the homotopy perturbation method. The effects of electrostatic force and interatomic interactions on the deflection and pull-in instabilities of CNTs with different lengths, diameters, and boundary conditions are investigated in detail. The results reveal that larger diameters and shorter lengths result in higher pull-in voltages. Moreover, CNTs with doubly clamped boundary conditions, in comparison with cantilever boundary conditions, are more resistant to pull-in  

    On the mechanical characteristics of graphene nanosheets: A fully nonlinear modified Morse model

    Abstract
    In this paper, the mechanical properties of graphene nanosheets are evaluated based on the nonlinear modified Morse model. The interatomic interactions including stretching and bending of the covalent bonds between carbon atoms, are replaced by nonlinear extensional and torsional spring-like elements. The finite element method is implemented to analyze the model under different loading conditions and linear characteristics of the graphene structure including the Young's modulus, surface modulus, shear modulus and Poisson's ratio are evaluated for various geometries and chirality where these properties are shown to be size and aspect ratio dependent. It is also found that when the dimensions... 

    Compaction simulation of crystalline nano-powders under cold compaction process with molecular dynamics analysis

    Abstract
    In this paper, the uniaxial cold compaction process of metal nano-powders is numerically analyzed through the Molecular Dynamics (MD) method. The nano-powders consist of nickel and aluminum nano-particles in the pure and mixed forms with distinctive contributions. The numerical simulation is performed using the different number of nano-particles, mixing ratios of Ni and Al nano-particles, compaction velocities, and ambient temperatures in the canonical ensemble until the full-dense condition is achieved. In the MD analysis, the inter-atomic interaction between metal nano-particles is modeled by the many-body EAM potential, and the interaction between frictionless rigid die-walls and metal...
