Recent progress in the electron-mirror microscopy (EMM), e.g., an improvement of its resolving power together with an increase of the magnification makes it useful for investigating the ferroelectric domain physics. English has recently observed the domain texture in the surface layer of BaTiO3. The present authors ) have developed a theory by which one can evaluate small one-dimensional electric fields and/or topographic step heights in the crystal surfaces from their EMM pictures. This theory was applied to a quantitative study of the surface pattern of BaTiO3).

Recently, the nanogenerators which can convert the mechanical energy into electricity by using piezoelectric one-dimensional nanomaterials have exhibited great potential in microscale power supply and sensor systems. In this paper, we provided a comprehensive review of the research progress in the last eight years concerning the piezoelectric nanogenerators with different structures. The fundamental piezoelectric theory and typical piezoelectric materials are firstly reviewed. After that, the working mechanism, modeling, and structure design of piezoelectric nanogenerators were discussed. Then the recent progress of nanogenerators was reviewed in the structure point of views. Finally, we also discussed the potential application and future development of the piezoelectric nanogenerators.

One-dimensional self-gravitating many-body systems consist of N identical parallel sheets which have uniform mass density m and infinite in extent in the (y, z) plane. We call the sheets particles in this paper. The particles are free to move along x axis and accelerate as a result of their mutual gravitational attraction. The Hamiltonian of this system has a form of where m, vi, and xi are the mass (surface density), velocity, and position of ith particle respectively.

One dimensional (1-D) micro-/nanostructures provide a good system to investigate the dependence of various properties on dimensionality and size reduction, especially in optoelectronic field. Organic conjugates including small molecules and polymers exhibit good optoelectronic properties and are apt to assemble into ordered nanostructures with well-defined shapes, tunable sizes and defect-free structures. In this review, we focus on recent progress of 1-D organic semiconductors for waveguide applications. Fabrication methods and materials of 1-D organic semiconductors are introduced. The morphology influence on the properties is also summarized.


In this review, we emphasize the recent progress achieved in understanding the behaviour of unstable detonations through the interaction of theoretical, asymp­ totic, and numerical ideas. Theoretical predictions and numerical simulations for unstable one-dimensional detonations are described in detail as an important testing ground for the more complex ideas and phenomena that occur in several space dimensions. The linear and nonlinear theories for unstable detonations are generalized to several space dimensions. A new dedicated numerical method leads to better insight into the physical phenomena of unstable detonations, such as the nature of the turbulence generated in the wake of the front. Simplified models derived through asymptotics and comparisons between theoretical and numerical predictions are stressed throughout this paper.

Recently there has been developed a new approach to the study of critical quantum systems in 1+1 dimensions which reduces them to problems in one-dimensional Brownian motion. This goes under the name of stochastic, or Schramm, Loewner Evolution (SLE). I review some of the recent progress in this area, from the point of view of many-body theory. Connections to random matrices also emerge.
