Bismuth-telluride-based solid solutions are unique, commercially available thermoelectric (TE) materials near room temperature for solid-state cooling, and the zone melting (ZM) technique is commonly applied to grow their commercial ingots with preferred orientation. Herein, we tailor the carrier concentration of zone…
The thermal-wet-comfort characteristic of fabrics is primary to clothing for human bodies. The comfort aptitudes in the fabrics increase the significance of attire and are gaining more interest in the global market. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of finishing patterns and fabric struc…
Based on the highly disparate reactivities of isoprene (I, r I = 25.4) and 4-methylstyrene (4MS, r 4MS = 0.007) in the anionic copolymerization in nonpolar media, a general strategy for the rapid and scalable synthesis of tapered multiblock copolymers with an extremely steep gradient has been developed. A repetitive a…
Active plasmonics is enabling novel devices such as switchable metasurfaces for active beam steering or dynamic holography. Magnesium with its particle plasmon resonances in the visible spectral range is an ideal material for this technology. Upon hydrogenation, metallic magnesium switches reversibly into dielectric m…
Abstract Surface‐supported liquid crystals (LCs) that exhibit orientational and thus optical responses upon exposure to ppb concentrations of Cl 2 gas are reported. Computations identified Mn cations as candidate surface binding sites that undergo redox‐triggered changes in the strength of binding to nitrogen‐based LC…
Recently, the critical discussion about the innovation of superior properties of engineering products that produced from natural resources has led to the renewed interest worldwide, concerning renewable and environmental issues. Rigorous study has been conducted on the natural fillers by both academicians and industri…
Knitting is not only a mere art and craft hobby but also a thousand-year-old technology. Unlike weaving, it can produce loose yet extremely stretchable fabrics with almost vanishing rigidity, a desirable property exhibited by hardly any bulk material. It also enables the engineering of arbitrarily shaped two-and three…
Abstract To achieve the accurate diagnosis of tumor with the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nanomaterials‐based contrast agents are developed rapidly. Here, a tumor targeting nanoprobe of c(RGDyK) modified ultrasmall sized iron oxide is reported with high saturation magnetization and high T 1 ‐weighted imaging capa…
Abstract The fabrication of bowl or concave particles with “asymmetric centers” has drawn considerable attentions, in which multiple scattering occurs inside the particles and the ability of light scattering is distinctly enhanced. However, the limited variety of templates, the uncontrollable dimensions such as the si…
Abstract The design and functionality of extremely flexible, foldable, and rollable microsupercapacitors (MSCs) with in-plane interdigital electrodes that consist of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) networks on an ultrathin polyimide substrate are demonstrated through experiments and finite element simulations. T…
Abstract The catalytic nature of semiconducting quantum dots (QDs) for photocatalytic hydrogen (H 2 ) evolution can be thoroughly aroused, not because of coupling with external cocatalysts, but through partially covering controlled amount of ZnS shell on the surface. Specifically, CdSe QDs, with an optimal coverage of…
In the current study, a set of urea–formaldehyde microcapsules (UFMs) were synthesized at different conditions via the in situ polymerization method. Encapsulation ability of the UFMs was studied by altering the synthesis parameters, such as formaldehyde to urea molar ratio (0.94, 1.88, 2.81), time (1, 4, 7 h), temper…
Perovskite-like materials exhibit desirable photophysical and electric properties that make them suitable for a remarkable breadth of applications in electronics and physics. In this contribution, we report on the multiphase ferroelectric and ferroelastic phenomena in a pyrrolidinium-based hybrid metal–organic materia…
A new mononuclear Ni(II) complex [NiL] ( 1 ) of an unsymmetrically dicondensed N 2 O 3 donor ligand, H 2 L ( N -α-methylsalicylidene- N ′-3-methoxysalicylidene-1,3-propanediamine), has been synthesized. Complex 1 on reaction with Mn(ClO 4 ) 2 ·6H 2 O and NaN 3 in different molar ratios yielded three novel heterometall…
Abstract Polymeric adsorbents show great potential for the replacement of activated carbon for removing a wide range of toxic organic pollutants from wastewater streams since they do not suffer from costly regeneration needs and high attrition rates. Herein, an electrochemically regenerable polymeric adsorbent based o…
Since the resurgence of multiferroics research, significant advancement has been made in the theoretical and experimental investigation of the electric field control of magnetization, magnetic anisotropy, magnetic phase, magnetic domains, and Curie temperature in multiferroic heterostructures. As a result of these adv…
Conversion of solar energy into liquid fuel often relies on multielectron redox processes that include highly reactive intermediates, with back reaction routes that hinder the overall efficiency of the process. Here, we reveal that these undesirable reaction pathways can be minimized, rendering the photocatalytic reac…
The structural, electronic, mechanic, vibrational and thermodynamic properties of Ti 2 SiB which is a hypothetical MAX phase compound, have been investigated using density functional theory calculations. The structural optimization of Ti 2 SiB has been performed and the results have been compared with Ti 2 SiC , Ti 2…
Much attention has been drawn to targeted nanodrug delivery systems due to their high therapeutic efficacy in cancer treatment. In this work, doxorubicin (DOX) was incorporated into a zwitterionic arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD)-conjugated polypeptide by an emulsion solvent evaporation technique with high drug load…
From ship hulls to bandages, biological fouling is a ubiquitous problem that impacts a wide range of industries and requires complex engineered solutions. Eliciting materials to have antibacterial or antifouling properties describes two main approaches to delay biofouling by killing or repelling bacteria, respectively…
