Addition of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) to P25 TiO2 was made and its impacts on photocatalytic oxidation of various organic substances were studied. Although the presence of RGO in TiO2 can enhance certain TiO2-based photocatalytic reactions, it is not a universal observation that can be expected in all types of orga…
Abstract In the paper, we proposed a new approach to producing the qubits in electron transport in low-dimensional structures such as double quantum wells or double quantum wires (DQW). The qubit could arise as a result of quantum entanglement of two specific states of electrons in DQW structure. These two specific st…
In this paper, through an emulsion-based bottom-up self-assembly method, monodisperse CdSxSe1−x (x = 0–1) quantum dots (QDs) with tailoring compositions have been three-dimensionally assembled into spherical architectures in sub-micrometer sizes. UV–Vis absorption measurements revealed the enhanced light harvesting ab…
In vitro mineralisation in simulated body fluid (SBF) of synthetic polymers continues to be an important area of research as the outcomes cannot be predicted. This study evaluates a series of ePTFE membranes grafted with carboxylate-containing copolymers, specifically using acrylic acid and itaconic acid for grafting.…
CsTaWO6 is a typical AMWO6-type compound and the photocatalysis of the pure and doped phases has been extensively studied experimentally. In this work, the electronic structures of sulphur (S) and nitrogen (N) co-doped CsTaWO6 have been studied in the framework of density functional theory, in particular the S/N co-do…
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been tremendously used as photocatalysts for H2 generation in recent years. Lacking native active sites (so-called co-catalyst) for H2 generation motivates the incorporation of noble metals and their molecular complexes, hydrogenase active site mimics into MOFs to promote H2 genera…
Abstract Surface passivation and bulk carrier lifetime of silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are essential for their application in solar cell devices. The effective minority carrier lifetime of a semiconductor material is influenced by both its surface passivation and bulk carrier lifetime. We found that the effective carrier…
Photocatalytic reduction of CO2 with water by photocatalysts such as TiO2 to produce solar fuels is an attractive approach to alleviate the environmental influences of greenhouse gases and in the meantime produce valuable carbon-neutral fuels. Among the materials properties that affect catalytic activity of CO2 photor…
Abstract La2O3 films were grown on Si substrates by atomic layer deposition technique with different thickness. Crystallization characteristics of the La2O3 films were analyzed by grazing incidence X-ray diffraction after post-deposition rapid thermal annealing treatments at several annealing temperatures. It was foun…
Abstract Botulism is a severe and potentially lethal paralytic disease caused by several botulinum neurotoxin-producing Clostridia spp. In China, the majority of the cases caused by botulism were from less-developed rural areas. Here, we designed specific substrate peptides and reconfigured gold nanoparticle-based lat…
Abstract Prion fibrils, which are a hallmark for neurodegenerative diseases, have recently been found to exhibit the structural diversity that governs disease pathology. Despite our recent finding concerning the role of the disease-specific structure of prion fibrils in determining their elastic properties, the mechan…
Abstract The capacitance and leakage current properties of multilayer La2O3/Al2O3 dielectric stacks and LaAlO3 dielectric film are investigated in this paper. A clear promotion of capacitance properties is observed for multilayer La2O3/Al2O3 stacks after post-deposition annealing (PDA) at 800 °C compared with PDA at 6…
Bacterial infection and tissue inflammation are the major causes of early failure of titanium-based orthopedic implants; thus, surgical implants with tunable drug releasing properties represent an appealing way to address some of these problems of bacterial infection and tissue inflammation in early age of orthopedic…
Iron-matrix composites with calcium silicate (CS) bioceramic as the reinforcing phase were fabricated through powder metallurgy processes. The microstructures, mechanical properties, apatite deposition and biodegradation behavior of the Fe-CS composites, as well as cell attachment and proliferation on their surfaces,…
In the last decade, the use of magnesium and its alloys as biodegradable implant materials has become increasingly accepted. However, surface modification of these materials to control the degradation rate in the early stages of healing and improve their biocompatibility is crucial to the successful implementation of…

The roles of applied strain and temperature on the hydration dynamics of cement paste are uncovered in the present study. We find that the system hardens over time through two different aging processes. The first process dominates the initial period of hydration and is characterized by the shear stress $σ$ varying sub…
A new self-lubricating, wear resistant epoxy resin material (ER+DCi) has been obtained by addition of a 9 wt.% of the room-temperature protic ionic liquid (PIL) tri-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium)] citrate (DCi) to the mixture of the prepolymer and the hardener composed of a mixture of amines. The highly polar trication…
Introduction. Measuring the linear and angular components of small displacements of the monitor object surfaces is considered. A high-precision non-contact device based on the advanced laser technologies and methods of optical interferometry, namely a double-pass laser interferometer with integrated branches, is devel…
