In this thesis we demonstrate a new, simple, and ecient method for the solid-state synthesis of oxides with a complex chemical composition. We modify the traditional solidstate synthesis method, which is used in the majority of ceramics laboratories around the world, in order to prepare multi-metallic oxide powders from classic …
The fabrication of functional materials composed of metallic nanoparticles is one of the most important steps in the contemporary nanotechnology. Nonlinear selfassembly of nanoparticles into macroscopic aggregates are promising methods in which various structures can be obtained by tuning certain control parameters. Such large-scale aggregates exhibit new physical features, which …
Complex dynamical systems are often modeled as networks, with nodes representing dynamical units which interact through the network’s links. Gene regulatory networks, responsible for the production of proteins inside a cell, are an example of system that can be described as a network of interacting genes. The behavior of a …
