The pure Ti and pure Ni atomic chains have also been computed on equal footing, serving as reference systems. The results shows that the stability of one-dimensional chains can be enhanced by alloying, i.e. the cohesive energies of TiNi alloy chains are larger than the corresponding pure Ti and Ni ones, in both the linear and zigzag structures. The stability effect by alloying is associated with changes of the electronic properties, such as the lowering of the density of states at the Fermi level and more covalently bonding between the Ti and Ni sites. Compared to the zigzag TiNi chain, the stability of linear TiNi chains has been more increased.展开更多

Conformal electrodeposition of gold in sub-micron-width silicon trenches with an aspect ratio greater than 35 over a grating area of several square centimeters is challenging and has not been described in the literature previously. A comparison of pulsed plating and constant current plating led to a gold electroplating protocol that reliably filled trenches for such structures.展开更多
