The alteration of the electronic interface properties of iron phthalocyanine (FePc) on Ni(111) by graphene interlayers is studied using both photoemission techniques (XPS and UPS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). Both XPS and XAS clearly indicate a charge transfer from Ni(111) to the Fe ion of FePc. In contras…

Nanoparticles' phase transfer behaviors at the oil-water interface have many respects in common with lipid bilayer crossing behavior and the Pickering emulsion formation. Hence, the interfacial behavior and phase transfer behavior are intuitive indicators for the application potential of nanoparticle materials, e.g.,…

The BiFeO3 (BFO) thin film was deposited by pulsed-laser deposition on SrRuO3 (SRO)-buffered (111) SrTiO3 (STO) substrate. X-ray diffraction pattern reveals a well-grown epitaxial BFO thin film. Atomic force microscopy study indicates that the BFO film is rather dense with a smooth surface. The ellipsometric spectra o…

BACKGROUND: The soil worm Enchytraeus crypticus (Oligochaeta) is an ecotoxicology model species that, until now, was without genome or transcriptome sequence information. The present research aims at studying the transcriptome of Enchytraeus crypticus, sampled from multiple test conditions, and the construction of a h…

A hierarchical host-guest nanostructured photoanode is reported for dye-sensitized solar cells. It is composed of ZnO nanowires grown in situ into the macropores of a 3D ZnO inverse opal structure, which acts both as a seed layer and as a conductive backbone host. Using a combination of self-assembly, hydrothermal or…
