Copper oxide nanomaterials (nano-CuOs) are widely used and can be inadvertently introduced into estuarine and marine environments. We analyzed the effects of different nano-CuOs (a synthesized and a less-pure commercial form), as well as ionic copper (CuSO4) on embryo development in the white sea urchin, a well-known…
${\mathrm{TaS}}_{2}$ is a transition-metal dichalcogenide having an exceptionally rich phase diagram, which includes exotic phenomena such as a charge density wave. We analyzed the structure, bonding, ground state, and dynamical stability of $1T, 2H$, and $3R$ phases of ${\mathrm{TaS}}_{2}$, and a commensurate charge…
The physical properties of semiconductor nanocrystals can be tuned dramatically via composition control. Here, we report a detailed investigation of the synthesis of high-quality colloidal Cd1-xMnxSe nanocrystals by diffusion doping of preformed CdSe nanocrystals. Until recently, Cd1-xMnxSe nanocrystals proved elusive…
We report the enhancement of plasmonic circular dichroism (PCD) in cysteine-modified Au nanorods via Ag coating. The entrapment of cysteine at the Au-Ag interface effectively amplifies the local electromagnetic field and leads to strong enhancement of the PCD response. Ag coating on spherical nanoparticles modified wi…
In this article, the second-harmonic generation (SHG) from gold split-ring resonators is investigated using different theoretical methods, namely, Miller’s rule, the nonlinear effective susceptibility method, and full-wave computation based on a surface integral equation method. The results confirm that Miller&…
A potential bone tissue engineering material was produced from a biodegradable polymer, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), loaded with nanodiamond phospholipid compound (NDPC) via physical mixing. On the basis of hydrophobic effects and physical absorption, we modified the original hydrophilic surface of the nanodi…
Simulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy is very powerful, but still suffers from small tissue penetration depth, photobleaching of fluorescent probes and complicated imaging systems. Here, we propose an optical luminescence depletion mechanism employing upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) and explore its potenti…
This article presents a short history and the recent advancement of the development of chemical vapor deposition technologies to form thin film gas barrier coatings on PET bottles and other plastic containers in food and beverage containers. Among different gas barrier enhancement technologies, coating can show unique…
Understanding the phenomenon of droplet coalescence in nanoparticle suspensions is extremely important for the preparation of Pickering emulsions. A microfluidic platform, which can provide compulsive droplet collisions, was developed to imitate the droplet coalescence process in the early stages of emulsification. Mi…
Cu-doped Zn–In–Se QDs with color-tunable photoluminescence emissions are synthesized, and the as-fabricated QD-LEDs exhibit a luminous efficiency of 0.97 cd A <sup>−1</sup> .
This paper describes experimental data on a polycrystalline nickel subjected to compressive loads induced in a split Hopkinson pressure bar test. A perpendicular bias magnetic field with respect to the loading direction is used to orient the domains and a pick-up coil measures the magnetic response of the sample durin…
The structural and optical properties of sputter deposited nitrogen (N) doped CuO (CuO(N)) thin films are systematically investigated. It is found that the incorporation of N into CuO causes an enlargement of optical bandgap and reduction in resistivity of the CuO(N) films. Furthermore, a gradual phase transformation…
Solution properties of aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) formulations containing different xanthan gum contents were investigated first by varying the mass fraction of xanthan gum in the range of 0.1–0.5%. Foam properties and fire-extinguishing performance of the AFFF formulations were then evaluated. Results indicated…
The correlation between interfacial interparticle forces, microstructure, and rheology of particle laden interfaces is characterized for a system of polystyrene particles at an air/water interface by using both aqueous salt concentration and particle surface concentration as control parameters. Characterizing linear,…
NaAlH <sub>4</sub> doped with 9 wt% nanocrystalline TiO <sub>2</sub> @C achieves ambient temperature hydrogen storage.
Sonoluminescence spectra in relation with sonochemical activity of water sparged with Ar/N2 gas mixtures were systematically studied at two ultrasonic frequencies (20 and 359 kHz). At 20 kHz, solely the molecular emission of OH (A(2)Σ(+)-X(2)Πi) is observed in addition to a broad continuum typical for multibubble sono…
In recent years, thin, lightweight and flexible solid supercapacitors are of considerable interest as energy storage devices. Here we demonstrated all-solid supercapacitors (SSCs) with high electrochemical properties, low self-discharge characteristics based on manganese dioxide/polyaniline (MNW/PANI) coaxial nanowire…
Surface immobilised polymer brushes containing azobenzene units were prepared using a combination of microcontact chemistry and surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerisation (SI-ATRP). These brushes were investigated using AFM, XPS and UV/vis spectroscopy. It was shown that two surfaces bearing azobenzene bru…
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and molecular dynamic (MD) simulations were performed to investigate the capability of graphene membranes with H-passivated nanopores for the separation of N2/CO2 gas mixtures. We found that the graphene membrane, H-pore-13, with its appropriate pore size of 4.06 Å, can eff…
Hyperdoped black silicon fabricated with femtosecond laser irradiation has attracted interest for applications in infrared photodetectors and intermediate band photovoltaics due to its sub-bandgap optical absorptance and light-trapping surface. However, hyperdoped black silicon typically has an amorphous and polyphasi…
