Advanced membranes that combine mechanical robustness with fast permeation are crucial to many applications such as water purification, ions selectivity, and gas separation. Graphene sheets offer a promising opportunity to fabricate thin, high-flux, and pressure-endurable membranes because of their unique 2D morpholog…
Silicone gel is widely used to encapsulate power electronic circuits. It is known that the weakness of this insulation system is the surface discharges between gel and substrate. These discharges give rise to the growth of cavities in gel, which may lead to eventual failure of the insulation. Despite the fact, surface…
The expectations of nanoparticle (NP)-based targeted drug delivery systems in cancer, when compared with convectional therapeutic methods, are greater efficacy and reduced drug side effects due to specific cellular-level interactions. However, there are conflicting literature reports on enhanced tumor accumulation of…
We have developed an in‐plane switching (IPS) liquid crystal display with a fast response time that is three times faster than that for the comparable optical performance in the conventional IPS mode. The elastic energy function under the electric field is also analyzed.
We performed detailed studies of the current–voltage (I–V) characteristics in graphene/MoS2/metal vertical field-effect transistors. Owing to its low density of states, the Fermi level in graphene is very sensitive to its carrier density and thus the external electric field. Under the application of a bias voltage VB…
The present study demonstrates that one can tune the bandgap and ferromagnetism in ZnO thin films by carbon implantation. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) study infers that at lower concentration, C ions prefer to occupy substitutional sites whereas at higher concentration it occupies partially interstitial sites. Combined…
Surface chemistry plays a pivotal role in regulating the morphology of nanoparticles, maintaining colloidal stability, and mediating the interaction with target analytes toward practical applications such as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based sensing and imaging. The use of a binary ligand mixture composed…
Recently, there have been tremendous advances in the development of various nanotechnology-based platforms for diagnosis and therapy. These nanoplatforms, which include liposomes, micelles, polymers, and dendrimers, comprise highly integrated nanoparticles that provide multiple functions, such as targeting, imaging, a…
ZnO microrods were grown by laser assisted flow deposition technique in order to study their luminescence behaviour in the near band edge spectral region. Transmission electron microscopy analysis put in evidence the high crystallinity degree and microrod's compositional homogeneity. Photoluminescence revealed a domin…
Oxygen scavenging films based on vacuum deposited palladium layers were developed to remove residual oxygen remaining in food packages after modified atmosphere packaging. Palladium (Pd) was coated on to a range of packaging films and in different thicknesses using magnetron sputtering technology. To improve the subst…
Transition-metal (TM) atoms are known to form TM-H2 complexes, which are collectively called Kubas dihydrogen complexes. The TM-H2 complexes are formed through the hybridization of the TM d orbitals with the H2 σ and σ* orbitals. The adsorption energy of H2 molecules in the TM-H2 complexes is usually within the range…
Electronic control and operation in almost all advanced devices or machines involve use of various sensors and actuators, many of which are based on piezoelectric (PE) effect. Ferroelectric (FE) materials forming a sub-group of piezoelectric materials have additional applications. Subject to success in materials and r…
Piezoelectric materials have been vastly used in ultrasonic transducers for medical imaging. In this paper, firstly, the most promising lead-free compositions with perovskite structure for medical imaging applications have been reviewed. The electromechanical properties of various lead-free ceramics, composites, and s…
Organic conducting polymers are promising electrode materials for printable organic electronics. One of the most studied conducting polymers is PEDOT: PSS, which is sufficiently conductive and transparent, but which shows some drawbacks, such as hygroscopicity and acidity. A new approach to stabilize PEDOT in aqueous…
This paper explores, develops and demonstrates a miniature heat pump based on the elastocaloric effect in shape memory alloys (SMAs). The active material is a Ti50.5Ni49.1Fe0.4foil of 30 μm thickness showing a maximum temperature change during pseudoelastic loading/unloading up to +20/-16 K. This effect is implemented…
Fluctuations confined to local regions in the structure of a glass are observed as the Johari-Goldstein (JG) relaxation. Properties of these regions and their atomic configuration are currently studied by relaxation techniques, by electron microscopy, and by high-energy X-ray scattering and extended x-ray absorption f…
In this article, we introduce a Poly adenine (Poly A)-assisted fabrication method for rationally designing surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) substrates in controllable and reliable manners, enabling construction of core-satellite SERRS assemblies in both aqueous and solid phase (e.g., symmetric core…
Abstract Organic dyes such as methylene blue (MB) are often used in the characterization of clays and related minerals, but details of the adsorption mechanisms of such dyes are only partially understood from spectroscopic data, which indicate the presence of monomers, dimers, and higher aggregates for varying mineral…
Treatment of antiaromatic nickel(II) norcorrole with potassium cyanide provided nickel(II) 3-cyanonorcorrole with perfect regioselectivity without the help of a catalyst. The reaction of the nickel(II) norcorrole with phenol or thiophenol in the presence of a base also yielded substitution products. The antiaromatic 1…
Abstract We report on the frictional properties of epitaxial graphene on SiC in ultra high vacuum. Measurements have been performed using a microtribometer in the load regime of 0.5 to 1 mN. We observed that a ruby sphere sliding against graphene results in very low friction coefficients ranging from 0.02 to 0.05. The…
