In this work, we report a monodisperse bifunctional nanoparticle system, MIO@SiO2 -RITC, as an MRI contrast agent [core, manganese iron oxide (MIO); shell, amorphous silica conjugated with rhodamine B isothiocyanate (RITC)]. It was prepared by thermal decomposition and modified microemulsion methods. The nanoparticles…
A series of phosphorus-containing copolyester prepolymers were first sythesized from dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), ethylene glycol (EG), and 2-carboxyethyl (phenyl)phosphinic acid (CEPPA) by molten transesterification and polycondensation, and then solid-state polymerization (SSP) was conducted for different reaction…
Manganese selenide (MnSe) possesses unique magnetic properties as an important magnetic semiconductor, but the synthesis and properties of MnSe nanocrystals are less developed compared to other semiconductor nanocrystals because of the inability to obtain high-quality MnSe, especially in the metastable wurtzite struct…
The accuracy of thermal conductivity measurements by the micro-Raman technique for suspended multi-layer graphene flakes has been shown to depend critically on the quality of the thermal contacts between the flakes and the metal electrodes used as the heat sink. The quality of the contacts can be improved by nonlocal…
An efficient and economic approach is proposed for the fast and direct recovery of silica materials from photonic waste powder. Unlike the conventional alkaline fusion method for the extraction of silica from waste materials, this method possesses advantages of a rapid and low-energy-consumed process with total recove…
Macromolecular crystallography is a very powerful tool to investigate three-dimensional structures of macromolecules at the atomic level, and is widely spread among structural biology researchers. Due to recent upgrades of the macromolecular crystallography beamlines at the Photon Factory, beamline throughput has impr…
Si nanocrystals, terminated with cyclohexane and allylamine, were analyzed using analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy. We found that AUC yielded equivalent particle size distribution data to other nanoparticle characterization techniques, while also…
Electro‐sintering, i.e., electrically enhanced densification without the assistance of Joule heating, has been observed in 70% dense 8 mol% Y 2 O 3 ‐stabilized ZrO 2 ceramics at temperatures well below those for conventional sintering. Remarkably, full density can be obtained without grain growth under a wide range of…
PROXIMA 2 is the first canted beamline at the French National Synchrotron Source SOLEIL, and it will provide two independent and tunable experimental stations, PX2-A & PX2-B, dedicated to macromolecular crystallography. The first station, PX2-A, is currently under construction. The source is an in-vacuum U24 undulator…
We are interested in the in vitro engineering of artificial vocal fold tissues via the strategic combination of multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), physiologically relevant mechanical stimulations, and biomimetic artificial matrices. We have constructed a vocal fold bioreactor that is capable of imposing vibrat…
Conjugated metallic nanoparticles are a promising means to achieve ultrasensitive and multiplexed sensing in intact three-dimensional samples, especially for biological applications, via surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). We show that enhancement and extinction are linked and compete in a collection of metallic…
Nontoxic bioresorbable polymersomes have been developed that efficiently and site-selectively tether targeting peptides under mild conditions with no toxic catalysts. The binding and release properties of these polymersomes have been evaluated when targeting DLD-1 human colon cancer cells overexpressing the α(5)β(1) i…
Diamond nanocrystals containing nitrogen–vacancy (NV) color centers have been used in recent years as fluorescent probes for near-field and cellular imaging. In this work, we report that an infrared (IR) pulsed excitation beam can quench the photoluminescence of a NV color center in a diamond nanocrystal (size <50 nm)…
This paper deals with the problem of loss evaluation in Soft Magnetic Composites (SMCs), focusing on the classical loss component. It is known that eddy currents can flow in these granular materials at two different scales, that of the single particle (microscopic eddy currents) and that of the specimen cross-section…
Using a sol‐gel method Pb 0.8 Ba 0.2 ZrO 3 ( PBZ ) thin film with a thickness of ~320 nm was fabricated on Pt (111)/ TiO x / SiO 2 / Si substrate. The analysis results of XRD , SEM , and dielectric properties revealed that this thin film is a (111)‐oriented nano‐scaled antiferroelectric and ferroelectric two‐phase coe…
We present the evolution of the initial (up to $\ensuremath{\sim}$10 kbar) hydrostatic pressure dependencies of ${T}_{c}$ and of the ambient pressure jump in the heat capacity associated with the superconducting transition as a function of K doping in the Ba${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$K${}_{x}$Fe${}_{2}$As${}_{2}$ family o…
A strategy to light-trigger ionic cross-linking of alginates by incorporating a photosensitive Ca2+ cage (nitr-T) is presented. Upon irradiation, free Ca2+ was released, and this caused gelation of the alginate solution. Addition of Ca2+ "on-demand" allowed us to obtain homogeneous alginate (ALG) gels using concentrat…
Controlling the nonlamellar and bicontinuous nanostructures through changing volume fraction is a well-developed technique for coil–coil block copolymer, but it is not always effective for rod–coil block copolymer due to strong rod–rod interaction. Versatile self-assembly morphology of rod–coil copolymer can be achiev…
Powders of Y2O3 co-doped with Yb3+ and Er3+ composed of well-crystallized nanoparticles (30 to 50 nm in diameter) with no adsorbed ligand species on their surface are prepared by polymer complex solution method. These powders exhibit up-conversion emission upon 978-nm excitation with a color that can be tuned from gre…
In order to study the effects of nanoparticles (NPs) with different physicochemical properties on cellular viability and structure, Saccharomyces cerevisiae were exposed to different concentrations of TiO2-NPs (1-3 nm), ZnO-NPs (<100 nm), CuO-NPs (<50 nm), their bulk forms, Ag-NPs (10 nm) and single-walled carbon nano…
