Chromium thin films are prepared by magnetron sputtering using the glancing angle deposition (GLAD) method. The electrical conductivity of the films exhibiting an inclined columnar structure is investigated. An analytical three-dimensional model is proposed in order to predict the evolution of the electrical conductiv…
A key step during the synthesis of collagen constructs is the incubation of monomeric collagen in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) to promote fibrillogenesis in the collagen network. Optimal PBS-treatment conditions for monomeric collagen solutions to induce gelation are well established in the literature. Recently, a re…
Arrays of planar symmetric gold quadrumers consisting of a central nano-disc surrounded by three similar nano-discs belonging to the D(3h) point group were designed and fabricated. Since the geometrical configuration of quadrumers is the same as planar trigonal molecules, nano-discs can play the roles of artificial at…
Motivated by the experimentally observed high mobility of gold atoms on graphene and their tendency to form nanometer-sized clusters, we present a density functional theory study of the ground state structures of small gold clusters on graphene, their mobility and clustering. Our detailed analysis of the electronic st…
60P₂O₅-20CaO-(20-x) Na₂O-xAg₂O and 60P₂O₅-30CaO-(10-x) Na₂O-xAg₂O glasses, x = 0, 0.5,1, and 2 mol % were prepared using normal glass melting technique. The antibacterial activity of pressed disks of powdered glass (undoped and silver-doped glass) was investigated against S.aureus, P.aeruginosa, and E.coli micro-organ…
The conventional Gibbs energy minimization methods apply elemental amounts of system components as conservation constraints in the form of a stoichiometric conservation matrix. The linear constraints designate the limitations set on the components described by the system constituents. The equilibrium chemical potentia…
Over the last ten years, signatures of high temperature ferromagnetism have been found in thin films and nanoparticles of various materials which are non-ferromagnetic in bulk, from semiconductors to superconductors. These studies often involve state-of-the-art magnetometers working close to the limits of their sensit…
A second generation of empirical potentials is produced for α-Fe within the framework of the magnetic potential formalism (Dudarev and Derlet 2005 J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 17 7097). A materials database that, in addition to ab initio-derived point defect formation energies, now includes third-order elastic constant a…
We studied the effect of pressure on LiMn 2 O 4 commercial powders and well-characterized nanorods using angle-dispersive synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) in diamond anvil cells and found that spinel LiMn 2 O 4 is extremely sensitive to deviatoric stress induced by external applied pressure. Under nonhydrostatic co…
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) is a long known but still not fully understood transport effect. Most theory papers focus on the influence of one particular contribution to the AHE. Actual measured experimental data, however, often are not in accord with idealized assumptions. In this work we discuss the data analysis…
Charge packet has been observed on many occasions but its physical mechanisms have never been properly understood. One of the models proposed by Lewis et al shows the presence of negative differential mobility with an electric field in semicrystalline polyethylene. In this paper we have observed the negative different…
Hierarchically structured flower leaves (petals) of many plants are superhydrophobic, but water droplets do not roll-off when the surfaces are tilted. On such surfaces water droplets are in the "Cassie impregnating wetting state", which is also known as the "petal effect". By analyzing the petal surfaces of different…
Abstract In this work, porous lamellar chitosan‐alginate membranes were developed without the use of freeze‐drying methods or other vacuum‐based approaches. The effects of two different surfactants, Tween 80 and Pluronic F68, on the properties of the membranes were evaluated, aiming at the production of stable consist…
The interaction between two TEMPO spin centers connected to a photoswitchable overcrowded alkene changes from noncoupled (three-line EPR spectrum) in the trans state, where the two spin centers are separated by ∼22 Å, to strongly coupled (five-line EPR spectrum) in the cis state, where the separation is ∼7 Å, upon pho…
In this work, Raman signals from crystal violet (CV) molecules on n -layer graphenes are clearly observed while these signals are invisible on SiO 2 /Si substrate under the same deposition condition with the same concentration of CV solution. This indicates that n -layer graphenes can be used as substrates for enhanci…
To gain insight into the hierarchical self-assembly of peptides and the surface effect on assembly formation, an aromatic peptide of diphenylalanine (FF) was used in this study as the model peptide. We found that the diphenylalanine peptide could self-assemble into a core-branched nanostructure through non-covalent in…
Silver nanoparticles were constructed by using triple helical polysaccharide (lentinan) dissolved in water as matrix for the first time. The structure, morphology, and size of the nanocomposites in the polysaccharide aqueous solutions were investigated with UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), transmission electron micro…
The main problem with polymeric heart valves (which are already biocompatible) is that they usually fail in the long term owing to tearing and calcification of the leaflets under high dynamic tensile bending stress and oxidative reactions with blood. To overcome this shortcoming, it is hypothesized that synthetic valv…
Acetobacter pasteurianus HBB6 and Acetobacter lovaniensis HBB5 strains used in this study was isolated from vinegar in Turkey. Bacterial cellulose was produced from HS (Hestrin-Scharmm) medium and beet molasses using A. pasteurianus HBB6 and A. lovaniensis HBB5. In this study, the effects of different pH (2.5, 3.5, 4.…
Surface-mediated drug delivery is a recent concept, where active surface coatings are employed to deliver therapeutic cargo to cells. Herein, we explore the potential of liposomes embedded in polydopamine (PDA) coatings to serve as drug deposits stored on planar substrates. We quantify the PDA growth rate on glass by…
