The stoichiometry of single nanoparticles of copper zinc tin selenide

Cu(2)ZnSnSe(4) nanoparticles have high potential to be used as ink for printable solar cells. Using transmission electron microscopy we show that these nanoparticles exhibit a broad range of chemical heterogeneity. These results are contrary to the interpretation of previous experimental work and will have considerable impact on the development of these nanoparticles.

Families of Line-Graphs and Their Quantization

Any directed graph G with N vertices and J edges has an associated line-graph L(G) where the J edges form the vertices of L(G). We show that the non-zero eigenvalues of the adjacency matrices are the same for all graphs of such a family L ⁿ (G). We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a line-graph to be quantisable and demonstrate that the spectra of associated quantum propagators follow the predictions of random matrices under very general conditions. Line-graphs may therefore serve as models to study the semiclassical limit (of large matrix size) of a quantum dynamics on graphs with fixed classical behaviour.     

Recursive fault-tolerance of Fibonacci cube in hypercubes

Fibonacci cube is a subgraph of hypercube induced on vertices without two consecutive 1's. If we remove from Fibonacci cube the vertices with 1 both in the first and the last position, we obtain Lucas cube. We consider the problem of determining the minimum number of vertices in n-dimensional hypercube whose removal leaves no subgraph isomorphic to m-dimensional Fibonacci cube. The exact values for small m are given and several recursive bounds are established using the symmetry property of Lucas cubes and the technique of labeling. The relation to the problem of subcube fault-tolerance in hypercube is also shown.
