Macrophages are effector cells in the innate and adaptive immune systems and in situ exist within three-dimensional (3-D) microenvironments. As there has been an increase in interest in the use of 3-D scaffolds to mimic natural microenvironments in vitro, this study examined the impact on cultured mice peritoneal macr…
We performed investigations of the atomic-scale surface structure of epitaxial La 5/8 Ca 3/8 MnO 3 thin films as a model system dependent on growth conditions in pulsed laser deposition with emphasis on film growth kinetics. Postdeposition in situ scanning tunneling microscopy was combined with in operando reflective…
Most classical dendrimers are frequently built-up from identical repeating units of low valency (usually AB2 monomers). This strategy necessitates several generations to achieve a large number of surface functionalities. In addition, these typical monomers are achiral. We propose herein the use of sugar derivatives co…
This study investigates the effect of modified wheat straw on the physical and mechanical properties of modified wheat straw/high-density polyethylene (MWS/HDPE) straw-plastic composites. Wheat straw fibers with particle sizes in the range of 0.25 to 0.50 mm were modified with caprolactam (CPL). A Fourier transform in…
The electrical properties of highly conductive ITO/Ag/ITO multilayer film at cryogenic temperatures have been presented in the paper for the first time. A good electrical conductivity and high thermal resistance of ITO/Ag/ITO are desirable features at cryogenic temperatures. Elements in ITO/Ag/ITO (AgHT™) were pattern…
Aluminum oxide nanoparticles (AlO NP) have been widely utilized in a variety of areas, including in the optical, biomedical and electronic fields and in the overall development of nanotechnologies. However, their toxicological profiles are still not fully developed. This study compared the distribution and immunotoxic…
ABSTRACT Through the development of nanotechnology it has been widely studied the morphology and size control in nanopowders synthesis. However, most of these techniques are successful to synthesize nanopowders in a small scale. In this research, a large semi‐industrial scale synthesis method is proposed, named contin…
The potential use of a layered double hydroxide (magnesium aluminum nitrate (Mg-Al)-LDH) to suppress the leaching of nitrate from a calcareous sandy loam soil and to enhance the nitrogen utilization efficiency of maize was assessed. The results of column studies showed that nitrate leaching efficiently decreased by 24…
ABSTRACT Polycarbonate (PC)/ultrafine polyhedral oligomeric octaphenyl silsesquioxane (OPS) composites were prepared by melt mixing method. The morphology and rheological behavior of PC/ultrafine OPS composites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) melt indexer, high pressure capillary rheometer, and…
Gold nanoparticles distinguish themselves from other nanoparticles due to their unique surface plasmon resonance properties that can be exploited for a multiplicity of applications. The promise of plasmonic heating in systems of Au nanoparticles on transition metal oxide supports, for example, Au/TiO2, rests with the…
Hybrid grating (HG) reflectors with a high-refractive-index cap layer added onto a high contrast grating (HCG) provide a high reflectance close to 100% over a broader wavelength range than HCGs. The combination of a cap layer and a grating layer brings a strong Fabry-Perot (FP) resonance as well as a weak guided mode…
We first show that the currently accepted statistical mechanics for granular matter is flawed. The reason is that it is based on the volume function, which depends only on a minute fraction of all the structural degrees of freedom and is unaffected by most of the configurational microstates. Consequently, the commonly…
We study a thermoelectric ratchet consisting of an array of disordered nanowires arranged in parallel on top of an insulating substrate and contacted asymmetrically to two electrodes. Transport is investigated in the Mott hopping regime, when localized electrons can propagate through the nanowires via thermally assist…
Liquid‐assisted plasma‐enhanced chemical vapor deposition (LA‐PECVD) provides a convenient approach toward the preparation of functional surfaces. In this work, the LA‐PECVD approach is reported for the high deposition rate of tuneable catechol and quinone‐functionalized coatings from plasma polymerization of vinyltri…
Control of resonance dynamics and gap plasmons of coupled nanostructures beyond commonly used parameters such as the dimer gap has a paramount importance in practical applications where a fixed feed-gap is needed. In this report, we show control of resonance peak shift and gap plasmon intensity of a closely spaced nan…
Controlling magnetic and electronic properties with electric fields, rather than magnetic fields, is of keen interest for a new generation of energy-efficient, high-speed, nonvolatile logic devices, among other applications. The authors exploit ferroelastic domain switching via the magnetoelectric effect to achieve co…
Synthesis, thermal stability, and flame retardancy of PA66, treated with derivatives of dichlorophenylphosphine, are reported. With an aim to improve the thermal stability and flame retardancy of PA66, along with improving its consistency, several new derivatives of dichlorophenylphosphine, namely bis-(4-carboxyanilin…
Sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy was employed to investigate the surface structures of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) constructed by sequentially alternating adsorption of poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) and poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS). It was found that the surface structures…
SiGe thin films are desirable candidates for many thermoelectric applications because of their low cost, low toxicity, and high compatibility with microelectronics fabrications. Currently, their applications are limited by their very poor thermoelectric performance. In this study, phosphorus-doped SiGe thin films with…
Submerged cutting of AZ31 Mg alloy was studied with ns-pulsed green fiber laser and three different submersion liquids, namely, water, alcohol-water solution, and paraffin based oil. Compared to conventional laser cutting with coaxial process gas, differences due to optical, chemical, and mechanical effects were ident…
