A smart surface with wettability that can be switched between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity has been realized on a transparent and conductive SnO2 nanorod film by the alternation of UV-irradiation and dark storage.
Nonemissive fulvenes can be induced to luminesce by aggregate formation, with the crystalline aggregates emitting bluer lights more intensely than their amorphous counterparts.
An ITO electrode was coated with a nanoporous TiO2 film, and the film was loaded with Au nanoparticles with different diameters (15, 40 and 100 nm). The electrode exhibited plasmon-induced photocurrents in the presence of Fe(2+/3+) couple under visible light (lambda > 420 nm). The quantum efficiency increased with inc…
Tripeptide with redox active chemical entities based smart organogels have been used for in situ formation and stabilization of gold and silver nanoparticles within the supramolecular gel networks and the gold nanoparticles are aligned in arrays along the gel nanofibers of peptide 1-toluene gels.
The properties of piezoelectric ceramics are enhanced by the development of crystallographic texture. One of the most convenient preparation methods for textured ceramics is the sintering of green compacts containing aligned anisometric particles. This review deals with the mechanisms of texture development by examini…
Selective catalytic reduction of NO by hydrocarbons (HC-SCR) is one of the promising technologies for removal of NO in exhausts containing excess oxygen, such as diesel and lean burn gasoline engines. Supported Ag catalysts, especially Ag/Al2O3, are thought to be the promising candidates for use in diesel exhausts, as…
The high level of protection required by personal protective clothing (PPC) severely impedes heat exchange by sweat evaporation. As a result work associated with wearing PPC, particularly in hot environments, implies considerable physiological strain and may render workers exhausted in a short time. Recent development…
-based proton conductors were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and electrochemical techniques. Undoped showed overall conductivities greater than in the temperature range of . The proton transport numbers of this material…
Defect radiation has been always considered as the most important loss for an emitter based on band gap emission. Here, we propose a novel approach which goes against this conventional wisdom. Based on the resonance effect between the surface plasmon of metal nanoparticles and defect emission, it is possible to conver…

The influence of size and geometrical shape on the optical properties of randomly oriented metallic nanorods is investigated using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA). Our calculations provide a benchmark for an accurate characterisation of nanorod suspensions by frequently used optical spectroscopic techniques. O…
Micromagnetics is a continuum variational theory describing magnetization patterns in ferromagnetic media. Its multiscale nature due to different inherent spatiotemporal physical and geometric scales, together with nonlocal phenomena and a nonconvex side-constraint, leads to rich behavior and pattern formation. This v…
Hollow nanoshells of layered double hydroxide (LDH) have been fabricated using exfoliated LDH nanosheets as a shell building block and polystyrene beads as a sacrificial template.
A new n-type semiconducting perylene bisimide dye has been synthesized that gelates a broad variety of organic solvents to afford well-defined nano- and mesoscopic helical fibers and bundles.
Calixarenes are excellent surfactants for enhancing the dispersion and self-assembly of metal nanoparticles into well-defined structures, particularly those with unit length scales in the 10-100 nm size range. Particles within these ensembles are strongly coupled, giving rise to unique collective optical or magnetic p…
We have fabricated, characterized and theoretically analyzed the performance of bilayer (or stacked) metallic wire-grids. The samples with 100 nm period were fabricated with extreme-ultraviolet interference lithography. Transmission efficiency over 50% and extinction ratios higher than 40 dB were measured in the visib…
Abstract The present status of catalyst preparation using nonthermal plasma treatment has been summarized in this paper. Improved dispersion, better low-temperature activity, enhanced stability, and better anti-carbon deposition performance can be achieved with nonthermal plasma-treated catalysts. The improvement in c…
The demand for smaller and lighter capacitors with higher temperature capability is increasing in the power electronic industry and military arena. This article reviews existing capacitor technologies and the potential new capacitor technologies toward realizing these goals. Various dielectric materials beneficial to…
The effect of confinement on the solid-liquid phase transitions of water was studied by using DSC and FT-IR measurements. Enthalpy changes upon melting of frozen water in MCM-41 and SBA-15 were determined as a function of pore size and found to decrease with decreasing pore size. The melting point also decreased almos…
A hydrous ruthenium oxide ( Ru O 2 ∙ x H 2 O ) , thin-film electrode with high specific capacitance and good high rate capability was prepared by electrostatic spray deposition for an electrochemical capacitor application. The X-ray diffraction measurements indicated that the as-prepared Ru O 2 ∙ x H 2 O transformed t…
