We introduce a scheme for perfect state transfer in regular two- and three-dimensional structures. The interactions on the lattices are of the XX spin type with uniform couplings. In two dimensions, the structure is a hexagonal lattice, and in three dimensions, it consists of hexagonal planes joined to each other at arbitrary points. We will show that compared to other schemes, much less control is needed for routing, the algebra of global control is quite simple, and the same kind of control can upload and download qubit states to or from built-in read-write heads  

We have studied the effect of both axial and transverse anisotropy on the critical field and thermodynamic properties of the field induced three dimensional antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the frustrated hexagonal lattice for Cs 2CuCl 4 compound. The spin model is mapped to a bosonic one with the hard core repulsion constraint and the Green's function approach has been implemented to get the low energy spectrum and the corresponding thermodynamic properties. To find the critical field (B c ) we have looked for the Bose-Einstein condensation of quasi-particles (magnons) which takes place when the magnon spectrum vanishes at the ordering spiral wave vector. We have also obtained the... 

ZnO nanostructures were synthesized through arc discharge of zinc electrodes in deionized (DI) water. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the prepared nanostructures indicates formation of crystalline ZnO of hexagonal lattice structures. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images illustrate rod-like as well as semi spherical ZnO nanoparticles with 15-20 nm diameter range, which were formed during the discharge process with 5 A arc current. The average particle size was found to increase with the increasing arc current. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis confirms formation of ZnO at the surface of the nanoparticles. Surface area of the sample prepared at 5 A arc current,... 

In this paper, the mechanical properties of graphene oxide are obtained using the molecular dynamics analysis, including the ultimate stress, Young modulus, shear modulus and elastic constants, and the results are compared with those of pristine graphene. It is observed that the increase of oxide agents (–O) and (–OH) leads to the increase of C–C bond length at each hexagonal lattice and as a result, alter the mechanical properties of the graphene sheet. It is shown that the elasticity modulus and ultimate tensile strength of graphene oxides (–O) and (–OH) decrease significantly causing the failure behavior of graphene sheet changes from the brittle to ductile. The results of shear loading... 

Vibrational analysis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is performed using a finite element method (FEM). To this end, the vibrational behavior of bridge and cantilever SWCNTs with different side lengths and diameters is modeled by three-dimensional elastic beams and point masses. The beam element elastic properties are calculated by considering mechanical characteristics of the covalent bonds between the carbon atoms in the hexagonal lattice. The mass of each beam element is assumed as point masses at nodes coinciding with the carbon atoms. Implementing the atomistic simulation approach, the natural frequencies of zigzag and armchair SWCNTs are computed. It is observed that the... 

Finite element (FE) method is used to model radial deformation of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) under hydrostatic pressure. Elastic deformation of the nanostructure is simulated via elastic beams. Properties of the beam element are calculated by considering the stiffness of the covalent bonds between the carbon atoms in the hexagonal lattice. By applying the beam elements in a three-dimensional space, elastic properties of the SWCNT in transverse direction are obtained. In this regard, influences of diameter and tube wall thickness on the radial and circumferential elastic moduli of zigzag and armchair SWCNTs are considered. It is observed that there is a good agreement between the...
