Asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) with aqueous electrolyte medium have recently become the focus of increasing research. For high performance ASCs, selection of cathode materials play a crucial role, and core–shell nanostructures are found to be a good choice. We successfully synthesized, ZnO@MnO 2 core–shell nanofibe…

All-aqueous emulsions exploit spontaneous liquid-liquid separation and due to their water-based nature are particular advantageous for the biocompatible storage and processing of biomacromolecules. However, the ultralow interfacial tensions characteristic of all-aqueous interfaces represent an inherent limitation to t…

Since 1969, the European Union approves food-grade titanium dioxide (TiO2), also known as E171 colouring food additive. E171 is a mixture of micro-sized particles (MPs) and nano-sized particles (NPs). Previous studies have indicated adverse effects of oral exposure to E171, i.e. facilitation of colon tumour growth.

Lanthanide-doped nanocrystals are of particular interest for the research community not only due to their ability to shape light by downshifting, quantum cutting, and upconversion but also because novel optical properties can be found by the precise engineering of core–shell nanocrystals. Because of the large surface…

Temperature is important because it has an effect on even the tiniest elements of daily life and is involved in a broad spectrum of human activities. That is why it is the most commonly measured physical quantity. Traditional temperature measurements encounter difficulties when used in some emerging technologies and e…

ABSTRACT Marine mussels secret protein‐based adhesives, which enable them to anchor to various surfaces in a saline, intertidal zone. Mussel foot proteins (Mfps) contain a large abundance of a unique, catecholic amino acid, Dopa, in their protein sequences. Catechol offers robust and durable adhesion to various substr…

The zircon polymorph of GdCrO4 has a large magnetocaloric effect over a wide temperature range, with |ΔST| > 20 J/kg·K from 6 K to 34 K, for a magnetic field of 9 T. This unusual behaviour is very interesting on magnetic refrigeration applications, for liquefying H2 or natural gas. The mean-field approach explains tha…

A 3-dimensional rippled nanoshell structure (a hollow pillar with wriggly sidewall morphology) is demonstrated for superhydrophobicity. As a control group, a straight nanoshell structure without a rippled shape was also prepared. The rippled structure showed improved superhydrophobicity with a large contact angle and…

X-ray diffraction measurement at 298 K of CdMoO 4 :Dy 3+ showed that the molybdenum ions are tetrahedral coordinated and Cd/Dy – dodecahedral coordinated. The Dy 3+ ions are randomly distributed in the unit cell, substituting the Cd 2+ ones. The temperature dependence of ac and dc magnetic susceptibility showed a lack…

Light propagation algorithms in the spatial domain hold an implicit assumption that the calculation region represents a virtual aperture, i.e., the amplitude outside of the calculation region is zero. With typically bright objects on a dark background, this assumption is legitimate and the calculation is correct. With…
