NO reduction by CO was investigated over CuO/γ-Al2O3, Mn2O3/γ-Al2O3, and CuOMn2O3/γ-Al2O3 model catalysts before and after CO pretreatment at 300 °C. The CO-pretreated CuO-Mn2O3/γ-Al2O3 catalyst exhibited higher catalytic activity than did the other catalysts. Based on X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spec…

Graphite oxide was synthesized by the oxidation of graphite via a modified Hummers approach. The oxygen content of graphite oxide was tuned by changing the oxidation time. The saturated ratio of oxygen to carbon is 0.47. Furthermore, the effect of oxygen content on the structures of graphite oxide was evaluated by usi…

A microscopic magnetic model for alpha-Cu2P2O7 is evaluated in a combined theoretical and experimental study. Despite a dominant intradimer coupling J1, sizable interdimer couplings enforce long-range magnetic ordering at T_N=27 K. The spin model for alpha-Cu2P2O7 is compared to the models of the isostructural beta-Cu…

We show that the numerical results contained in a recent paper are affected by a non optimal implementation of the methods which have been used to obtain these results. A careful analysis done using the Rayleigh-Ritz method provides a rigorous upper bound for the energy of the ground state of an electron in a two dime…

We show that a coherent picture of the dc conductivity of monolayer and bilayer graphene at finite electronic densities emerges upon considering that strong short-range potentials are the main source of scattering in these two systems. The origin of the strong short-range potentials may lie in adsorbed hydrocarbons at…

A new type of biodegradable micelles for glutathione-mediated intracellular drug delivery was developed on the basis of an amphiphilic hyperbranched multiarm copolymer (H40-star-PLA-SS-PEP) with disulfide linkages between the hydrophobic polyester core and hydrophilic polyphosphate arms. The resulting copolymers were…

We present a calculation of the thermal conductivity of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), based on solving the Boltzmann transport equation with the full phonon dispersions, a momentum-dependent model for edge roughness scattering, as well as three-phonon and isotope scattering. The interplay between edge roughness scatter…

Transitions associated with orientational order–disorder phenomena are found in a wide range of materials and may have a significant impact on their properties. In this work, specific heat and 1 H NMR measurements have been used to study the phase transition in the metal-organic framework (MOF) compound [(CH 3 ) 2 NH…

We report the synthesis of multifunctional hybrids in both films and bulk form, combining electrical and ionic conductivity with porosity and catalytic activity. The hybrids are synthesized by a two-step process: (a) ice templation of an aqueous suspension comprised of Nafion, graphite oxide, and chloroplatinic acid t…

The intrinsic and extrinsic doping properties of BiVO${}_{4}$, i.e., the formation energies and transition energy levels of defects and impurities, have been studied systematically by first-principles density-functional theory. We find that for doping caused by intrinsic defects, O vacancies are shallow donors and Bi…

Various hybrid functionals combined with both plane wave and localized basis sets have been used for a systematic study of the structural and electronic properties of all phases of WO 3 . It is found that hybrid functionals work at least as well as the standard DFT/GGA functional in predicting lattice constants and eq…

We demonstrate highly efficient electroluminescence from silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs). In an optimized nanocrystal-organic light-emitting device, peak external quantum efficiencies of up to 8.6% can be realized with emission originating solely from the SiNCs. The high efficiencies reported here demonstrate for the fir…

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major impediment to the success of cancer chemotherapy. Through the development of a drug delivery system that tethers doxorubicin onto the surface of gold nanoparticles with a poly(ethylene glycol) spacer via an acid-labile linkage (DOX-Hyd@AuNPs), we have demonstrated that multidrug r…

Topological insulators (TIs) have been found in strained binary HgTe and ternary I-III-VI2 chalcopyrite compounds such as CuTlSe2 which have inverted band structures. However, the non-trivial band gaps of these existing binary and ternary TIs are limited to small values, usually around 10 meV or less. In this work, we…

Carrier and phonon dynamics in Bi2Se3 crystals are studied by a spatially resolved ultrafast pump-probe technique. Pronounced oscillations in differential reflection are observed with two distinct frequencies, and are attributed to coherent optical and acoustic phonons, respectively. The rising time of the signal indi…

We show that thin sheets under boundary confinement spontaneously generate a universal self-similar hierarchy of wrinkles. From simple geometry arguments and energy scalings, we develop a formalism based on wrinklons, the transition zone in the merging of two wrinkles, as building-blocks of the global pattern. Contrar…
