Particles generated from numerous anthropogenic and/or natural sources, such as crystalline α-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles, have the potential to damage lung cells. In our study we investigated the effects of these nanoparticles (12.5 µg/ml) on lipid peroxidation and the antioxidative system in MRC-5 lung fibroblast cells foll…
Abstract Polyurethane dispersions are gaining in importance due to their environmentally friendly coating system, versatile coating properties and ease of application. An enormous amount of research is focused on waterborne coatings such as waterborne alkyds, water‐reducible alkyds, alkyd–acrylic hybrids, oil modified…
BACKGROUND: Surface charge and oxidative stress are often hypothesized to be important factors in cytotoxicity of nanoparticles. However, the role of these factors is not well understood. Hence, the aim of this study was to systematically investigate the role of surface charge, oxidative stress and possible involvemen…
In this article, the impact response and failure modes of square test panels subjected to low-velocity impact were investigated. Two contrasting types of materials were used in the fabrication of the test panels, namely brittle and ductile materials. A relatively extensive experimental investigation was conducted in c…
Controlled fracture tests that ensure the full conversion of supplied energy into crack surface energy are required for the accurate determination of the toughness parameters of materials. In this work, a new experimental configuration to perform three-point-bending single-edge V-notch beam stable fracture tests contr…

We report laser filamentation in the bulk of chalcogenide glass with femtosecond laser pulses of energy on the nanojoule level. Spatially resolved measurements of the resulting refractive index modification are presented. The study of the pulse energy and focusing condition dependencies show that channels of positive…
Algal samples were collected from 37 temple-tanks in Palakkad and Thrissur district in Kerala. Collections were carried out during the month of March 2008 and May 2009. Samples were studied in the laboratory and identified. The following algae were present Pandorina cylindricum , Chlorococcum humicolo , Botryococcus b…
Abstract We have demonstrated a site‐selective deposition of uniform single‐wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) thin films on a SiO 2 /Si substrate using patterned self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs). Non‐polar octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) SAM was patterned by ultraviolet (UV) light through shadow mask. Then polar 3‐aminoprop…
The photoemission enhancement with local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) was studied by two-photon photoemission (2PPE) spectroscopy for size-selected silver (Ag) and gold (Au) metal nanoparticles (NPs) deposited on a hydrogen-terminated Si(111)-(1 × 1) [H−Si(111)] surface. At 0.0015 monolayer equivalents (MLE) of Ag…
Abstract Silver nanorods with increased surface‐enhanced Raman scattering sensitivity and detection have been synthesized in a novel, facile, and eco‐friendly way through a simple chemical reduction method using 2,3‐dihydroxyfumaric acid in aqueous solution under aerobic conditions. The structure and composition of th…
Aromatic−aliphatic copolyesters of poly(ethylene- co -diethylene terephthalate)- co -poly( l -lactic acid) (PEDLT) with different compositions were synthesized by direct melt copolyesterization of l -lactic acid oligomers and poly(ethylene- co -diethylene terephthalate) (PEDT) oligomers. Chemical structures, thermal p…
Die Trends der Bildungsenergien für 41 Perowskite AMO3 bei 298 K entsprechen denen von aus Dichtefunktionalrechnungen mit dem RPBE-GGA-Funktional (siehe Bild; A grün, M blau, O rot). Die Rechnungen erklären auch systematische Trends in den Eigenschaften der Perowskite, zeigen einen direkten Zusammenhang zwischen Zusam…
In a recent publication (T. Ergin et al., Science 328, 337 (2010)), three-dimensional broadband dielectric carpet cloaks have been fabricated and experimentally characterized by optical bright-field and dark-field microscopy using unpolarized light from an incandescent lamp. A direct comparison with theory has not bee…
Bond valence sum calculations have previously suggested that iron oxyborate exhibits charge order of the Fe ions with integer $2+/3+$ valence states. Meanwhile transition metal oxides typically show much smaller, fractional charge disproportionations. Using resonant x-ray diffraction at the iron $K$ edge, we find reso…
Abstract Composite structures of graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted great interest due to their expected distinguished properties. Here we have investigated the mechanical and electronic properties of new nanostructures based on CNT–graphene covalent‐bonded compounds. magnified image The process of th…
With the aim of obtaining light-responsive liquid-crystalline palladium complexes, six palladium complexes derived from an orthometalated imine, bearing one or two azocarboxylato bridges, have been synthesized: [Pd(2)(μ-SC(10)H(21))(μ-O(2)CAzo)(L(1,2))(2)] (7 and 8), [Pd(2)(μ-SC(10)H(21))(μ-O(2)CAzo3C(10))(L(1,2))(2)]…
Get active: Neutral TaO4 d0 complex is able to cleave dihydrogen heterolytically and spontaneously to form [HTaO(OH)(η2-O2)] in solid argon at cryogenic temperatures. Theoretical calculations predict that the hydrogen atoms in [HTaO(OH)(η2-O2)] can easily be transferred to organic compounds. Thus, TaO4 can serve as a…
We performed electric and thermoelectric transport measurements of bilayer graphene in a magnetic field up to 15 T. The transverse thermoelectric conductivity ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{xy}$, determined from four transport coefficients, attains a peak value of ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{xy,\text{peak}}$ whenever chemical po…
