Bamboo charcoal (BC) accompanied silver (Ag) nanocomposite is synthesized through sol–gel method. The produced BC/Ag nanocomposite was surface modified by air and oxygen plasma treatments. Silver ions (Ag[Formula: see text]) will serve to improve the antibacterial activity as well as the surface area of BC. Plasma tre…
The study of the photoluminescent characteristics of host–guest systems based on highly emissive trivalent rare earth complexes such as Eu3+ – tris-bipyridine-carboxylate, immobilized in solid state host matrices, is motivated by their potential applications in optoelectronic devices and bioanalytical systems. Besides…
Compression tests were performed to obtain flow stress curves of a newly developed magnesium ZE20 alloy for automobile applications. The experiments were performed in a temperature range from 200 °C to 425 °C and the strain rates from 0.01 to 15 s-1 to examine the material responses at various processing conditions. A…
Multiple exciton generation (MEG) in nanometer-sized hydrogen-passivated silicon nanowires (NWs), and quasi two-dimensional nanofilms depends strongly on the degree of the core structural disorder as shown by the perturbative many-body quantum mechanics calculations based on the density functional theory simulations.…
The effect of welding thermal cycles on the microstructure and micro-hardness of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of an experimental microalloyed steel was studied. Due to the experimental difficulties involved in acquiring the thermal cycles, these were determined by applying the solutions of Rosenthal's equations for th…
Bio-imaging and drug carriers for delivery have created a huge demand for crystals. Crystals are fascinating materials that have been grown for a long time but obtaining biocompatible fluorescent crystals is a challenging task. We report on the growth of fluorescent crystals using a carbon dot (C-dot) solution by a hy…
Currently, there is a broad interest in the control over creating ordered electroactive nanostructures, in which electron donors and acceptors are organized at similar length scales. In this article, a simple and efficient procedure is reported en-route towards the construction of 1D arrays of crystalline pristine C60…
The extraction of exchange parameters from measured spin-wave dispersion relations has severe limitations particularly for magnetic compounds such as the transition-metal perovskites, where the nearest-neighbor exchange parameter usually dominates the couplings between the further-distant-neighbor spins. Very precise…
The interfacial atomic arrangement, which is different from that in the bulk form of the heterojunction, can induce a reconstruction of electrostatic field at the interface. For conventional semiconductor heterointerfaces, it is known that such reconstruction results in band bending, creating a quantum well in which t…
A novel intumescent flame-retardant curing agent, poly-( meta-xylylenediamine spirocyclic pentaerythritol bisphosphonate) (PMXSPB), was synthesized and subsequently characterized using Fourier transform infrared, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopies. PMXSPB was used as a flame-retardant and curin…
The three-point bending strength and fracture behavior of single oriented crossed-lamellar structure in Scapharca broughtonii shell were investigated. The samples for bending tests were prepared with two different orientations perpendicular and parallel to the radial ribs of the shell, which corresponds to the tiled a…
Thermal properties of glasses from the P2O5–SiO2–K2O–MgO–CaO system modified by MnO2 addition was studied by DSC, XRD and FTIR methods. It has been found that the replacement of MgO and CaO modifiers by MnO2 in the structural network of phosphate glasses results in decrease in the glass transition temperature (T g) an…
Inverted structure heterojunction colloidal quantum dot (CQD) photovoltaic devices with an improved performance are developed using single‐step coated CQD active layers with a thickness of ≈60 nm. This improved performance is achieved by managing the device architecture to simultaneously enhance charge generation and…
We describe a simple and effective strategy to couple gold nanorods (GNRs) into end to end dimers and freeze the assembly in water. The assembly is initiated using cysteine and driven by hydrogen bonding between two cysteine. We show that the aging of GNRs samples impacts both the assembly kinetics and the final yield…
The amelioration of biofouling in industrial processing equipment is critical for performance and reliability. While conventional biocides are effective in biofouling control, they are potentially hazardous to the environment and in some cases corrosive to materials. Enzymatic approaches have been shown to be effectiv…
We report a conceptually new strategy for forming particle-stabilized emulsions. We begin with stable, dilute suspensions of highly hydrophilic nanoparticles in water and hydrophobic nanoparticles in oil. When the two suspensions are mixed, attractive interactions between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic particles caus…
Poly(urea-urethane) and polyurea microcapsules were prepared by an interfacial polymerisation using orange oil as a core material and a mixture of polymeric 4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate and toluene diisocyanate in a molar ratio of 1:0.2 as oil-soluble monomers. The membrane composition, thickness, and other pr…
Shock compaction of reactive powder mixtures to synthesize new materials is one of the oldest material processing techniques and has been studied extensively by several researchers over the past few decades. The quantitative connection between the shock energy imparted and the extent of reaction that can be completed…
The impact of water vapor and temperature on the release of tritium from stainless steel was studied. Degreased stainless steel samples loaded with tritium at room temperature following a 24-h degassing in vacuum at room temperature were subjected to increasing temperatures or humidity. In general, increasing either t…
The search for new materials that can withstand the tough demands of practical hydrogen storage for use in automotive transportation is currently receiving a great deal of attention from the scientific community because of the urgency for replacements of traditional energy resources such as fossil fuels. In this work,…
