A review is provided about the current research on magnesium/magnesium alloys corrosion in the industry. Except for reviewing the kinds of corrosion on galvanic corrosion, stress corrosion, and corrosion fatigue, its corresponding mechanisms are also explained, such as the influence of metallurgical factors, and envir…
To elucidate low-dimensional effects on thermoelectric materials, bismuth telluride film and nanowires array were fabricated by potentiostatically electrodeposition. Both materials are slightly Te-rich, n-type Bi 2 Te 3, exhibiting preferred orientation in rhombohedral strcture. For both the Seebeck coefficient S ≈ −7…
The antimicrobial effect of ethanol, aqueous and chloroform extracts of leaf and latex of Calotropis procera on six bacteria namely, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus albus, Streptococcus pyogenes,Streptococcus pneumoniae and three fungi: Aspergillus niger, Aspergillusflavus, Microsporium boulard…
Total synthesis and photophysical properties of PENB-DDAO, a photoactivatable 1,3-dichloro-9,9-dimethyl-9H-acridin-2(7)-one (DDAO) derivative of a far-red emitting fluorophore, are described. The photoremovable group of the DDAO phenolic function comprises a donor/acceptor biphenyl platform which allows an efficient (…
A single-step doping method capable of high resolution n- and p-type doping of large area graphene is presented. Thin films of hydrogen silsesquoxane on exfoliated graphene are used to demonstrate both electron and hole doping through control of the polymer cross-linking process. This dual-doping is attributed to the…
The synthesis of mannose-substituted tetraphenylethenes (TPEs) and their aggregation-induced emission (AIE) behavior, induced by interactions with concanavalin A (Con A), are reported. A mixture of the mannose-TPE conjugates and Con A in a buffer solution displays an intense blue emission on agglutination within a few…
Transparent, well-aligned TiO(2) nanotube arrays (NTAs) with controllable dimensions are grown on glass substrates via atomic layer deposition (ALD) of TiO(2) onto free-standing porous anodic alumina (PAA) templates. Photodegradation of aqueous methylene blue (MB) solution and solid stearic acid (SA) film using TiO(2)…
Rotor speed regulation in the hybrid walls of porous p-phenylenesilica can be achieved by guest uptake and removal. A graduation from slow to ultrafast motional regimes (k=104–108 s−1) can be experienced by the molecular rotors depending on guest nature and temperature, as detected by solid-state spin-echo 2H NMR spec…
Ag-coated CNTs hybrid nanoparticles (Ag/CNTs) were prepared by ultrasonic irradiation of dimethylformamide (DMF) and silver (I) acetate precursors in the presence of CNTs. The morphology of Ag/CNTs was characterized using x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The Nylon-6 powder and 1…
A series of six low-molecular-weight elastomers with hydrogen bonding end groups have been designed, synthesized, and studied. The poly(urethane)-based elastomers all contained essentially the same hard block content (ca . 11%) and differ only in the nature of their end groups. Solution-state 1 H NMR spectroscopic ana…
We show that it is possible to reach one of the ultimate goals of organic electronics: producing organic field-effect transistors with trap densities as low as in the bulk of single crystals. We studied the spectral density of localized states in the band gap (trap DOS) of small molecule organic semiconductors as deri…
p-Type ZnO microwires were first synthesized by a simple chemical vapor deposition method using Na as the dopant source. p-Type doping was confirmed by the electrical transport in single-wire field-effect transistors and low-temperature photoluminescence. The carrier mobility of the microwires was estimated to be appr…
We study spacing selection in directional solidification of Al-Cu alloys under transient growth conditions. New experimental results are presented which reveal that dendritic spacing versus solidification rate evolves in an almost step-wise fashion, consistent with previous theoretical predictions of Langer and co-wor…
We study the electrical and transport properties of monoatomic Mo wires with different structural characteristics. We consider first periodic wires with inter-atomic distances ranging between the dimerized wire to that formed by equidistant atoms. We find that the dimerized case has a gap in the electronic structure w…
We compare chemical solution deposition (CSD), and pulsed-laser-deposition (PLD), specimens of the new room-temperature, single-phase, multiferroic magnetoelectric, [PbFe2/3W1/3O3]x[PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3]1-x (PZTFWx ~ 0.40
We implement a bottom-up multiscale approach for the modeling of defect localization in $C_{6n^2}H_{6n}$ islands, i.e. graphene quantum dots with a hexagonal symmetry, by means of density functional and semiempirical approaches. Using the \textit{ab initio} calculations as a reference, we recognize the theoretical fra…
In this letter we discuss basal-plane hydrogenation of graphene, in the extent of intercoupling between strain and electronic structure. Our first-principles calculations reveal that the atomic structures, binding energies, mechanical and electronic properties of graphene are significantly modified by applying strain.…
Phonon dynamics, charge response and the phonon density of states are calculated for the high-temperature superconductors HgBa$_{2}$CuO$_{4}$ and Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CuO$_{6}$ within a microscopic model for the electronic density response. The results are compared with previous calculations for La$_{2}$CuO$_{4}$ and Nd$_{…
A common goal in tissue engineering is to attain the ability to tailor specific cell-scaffold interactions and thereby gain control over cell behavior. The tunable nature of protein-engineered biomaterials enables independent tailoring of a range of biomaterial properties, creating an attractive alternative to synthet…
Fluorescent quantum dots (QDs) have great potential for in vivo biomedical imaging and diagnostic applications. However, these nanoparticles are composed of heavy metals and are very small in diameter, and their possible toxicity must therefore be considered. As yet, no studies have reported the transfer of QDs betwee…
