A photoactive electrospun material producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon light irradiation is reported. The phototoxicity of the generated ROS is spatially restricted to the fiber-tissue interface by conjugation of the photosensitizer to a macromolecule. Photo-triggered ROS is produced on demand and repeatedly.…

In Čerenkov radiation and transition radiation, evanescent wave from motion of charged particles transfers into radiation coherently. However, such dissipative motion-induced radiations require particles to move faster than light in medium or to encounter velocity transition to pump energy. Inspired by a method to det…

We report the formation of nanostructured toroidal micellar bundles (nTMB) from a semidilute wormlike micellar solution, evidenced by both cryogenic-electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy images. Our strategy for creating nTMB involves a two-step protocol consisting of a simple prestraining process f…

Alumina–tantalum carbide (Al2O3–TaC and Al2O3–Ta2C) composites were synthesized by incorporating aluminothermic reduction into a self-propagating combustion process. The test specimens adopted were composed of Ta2O5, Al, Al4C3, and carbon powders. Experimental evidence showed that the use of Al4C3 to provide Al and ca…

Freestanding Ni(OH) 2 nanoflakes on CNT films (NNCF) electrode with high specific capacitance is effectively fabricated via a facile chemical precipitation method. The CNT films function as conductive networks and the nucleation centers of Ni(OH) 2 nanoflakes. The resulted ultrathin α-Ni(OH) 2 exhibits a high specific…

By atomistic simulations, we show that H is mainly absorbed on the surface of the crack tip in Ni and reveal that H switches from decreasing the activation energy for dislocation nucleation at low load to increasing it at high load, owing to H-reduced activation volume. This counterintuitive finding explains experimen…

We present the first spatio-temporal mapping of two simultaneously present species in a plasma used for pulsed laser deposition. We apply laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy (LIF) to map ground state populations of Al and AlO in plasma plumes generated by ablation of LaAlO 3 in an O 2 or Ar atmosphere. Around a sp…

A novel C-Ni-SiC composite using sawtooth-like SiC as support and carbon as modified material was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis and thermochemical pyrolysis. As a supercapacitor electrode, it exhibits very high specific capacitance (1780 F g(-1)) and excellent cycling performance (>96% for 2500 cycles).

Here we present a systematic study of the effects of pressure on the superconducting and spin/charge density wave (SDW/CDW) transitions of Ba$_{1-x}$Na$_x$Ti$_2$Sb$_2$O (x = 0, 0.10, and 0.15) by means of resistivity measurements. For x = 0 and 0.10, external pressure results in a decease of the SDW/CDW transition tem…

After ligand exchange with PEG, Au NPs with differently mixed surface functionalities co-exist in the as-synthesized sample. It is found that the poorly grafted nanoparticles can be simply removed using a chromatographic method, and the well grafted nanoparticles can be eluted as a function of the core size.
