Current synthesis methods of nanoporous Cu–C composites offer limited control of the material composition, structure, and properties, particularly for large Cu loadings of ≳20 wt%. Here, we describe two related approaches to realize novel nanoporous Cu–C composites based on the templating of recently developed carbon-…
A facile method for cross-linking organic molecules has been developed by computational modeling, instrumentation design, and experimental research. Briefly, organic molecules are hit by H2 with controllable kinetic energy in our novel apparatus where a high flux of hyperthermal H2 is generated. When a C–H bond of the…
Size-controlled Ag0.04@Co0.48@Ni0.48 core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by employing graphene (rGO) with different reduction degrees as supports. The number of C=O and C=O functional groups on the surface of rGO might play a major role in controlling the particle size. The strong steric-hindrance effect o…
Antimony telluride (Sb 2 Te 3 ) based compounds are very promising materials for thermoelectric applications at room-temperature.
A size-dependent transition from molecule-like to plasmonic behaviour is demonstrated in the case of water soluble Au:SG nanomolecules. This was achieved using PAGE separation of smaller and larger nanomolecules, resulting in an unprecedented 26 bands, in a wide-range from 10's to 1000's of Au-atoms. PAGE separation o…
TiNi shape memory alloy and its composite using δ -Al 2 O 3 nanosize particles were prepared by the powder metallurgy method, and some mechanical properties like hardness, wear, and corrosion behavior were investigated. The experimental results exhibited that the lower wear rate was obtained for the nano-Al 2 O 3 -rei…
A series of six 6-oxoverdazyl (1[10]) substituted with a total of three 3,4,5-tri(decyloxy)phenyl and/or 3,4,5-tri(decylsulfanyl)phenyl groups was investigated by thermal, XRD, spectroscopic, magnetic and photovoltaic methods. The compounds exhibit columnar hexagonal (1[10]c, Colh), columnar hexagonal ordered (1[10]b,…
Ce 3+ ion is an important activator for various phosphors, but no detailed study has been performed on KCl:Ce 3+ . A Ce 3+ -doped KCl blue phosphor is synthesized from an aqueous solution of KCl − CeCl 3 . The structural and optical properties of the KCl:Ce 3+ phosphor are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analy…
We present a density functional theory study of the oxidation of 1D periodic rods supported along the [001] direction on the rutile TiO2(110) surface. The study shows evidence for an oxidation of the interface between the supported Au and the TiO2 crystal. The added O atoms adsorb at the 5f-Ti atoms in the through und…
Polymerisation of methyl methacrylate supramolecular gels followed by removal of the gelator imprints the gel morphology into the covalent polymer.
A series of lanthanide oxyapatites, neodymium silicates ( Nd 9.33− x M 3 x /2 ( SiO 4 ) 6 O 2 ; x = 0.0 and 2.0 and M = Ca, Sr, and Ba), and lanthanum germanate ( La 10 ( GeO 4 ) 6 O 3 ) were prepared by a variety of heat treatments and characterized. High‐temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry in molten 2 PbO –…
An economical method of fabricating large‐area (up to a 100‐mm wafer) silver (Ag)‐coated black silicon (BS) substrates is demonstrated by cryogenic deep reactive ion etching with inductively coupled plasma. This method enables a simple adjustment of the spike structure (e.g., height, width, sidewall slope and density…
Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of single nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in 50-nm diamond nanocrystals at the zero-phonon line (ZPL) were directly observed using a Fabry-Perot interferometer at cryogenic temperatures. The narrowest linewidth of ZPL was 1.2 GHz (1.9 ± 0.7 GHz on average), comparable to ZPL linewidths in…
By employing smart self-assembly of 1,4-benyldicarbonxamide-phenylalanine (C2) derived supramolecular gelators, a simple way to construct nanofibrous environments with the controllable wettability is developed. The fast cell adhesion and proliferation on the least wettable fibers indicates an efficient control over ce…
Polylactide (PLA) nanocomposites were prepared by an extrusion technique using a twin‐screw extruder. Nanofil2 (N) and montmorillonite (MMT) K10 (S) were used as nanoclays. To improve the nanoclay dispersion in the PLA matrix, a compatibilizer was introduced [poly(ε‐caprolactone) (K)]. The structure and morphology of…
We present a first-principles investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of an adatom on bilayer graphene within the framework of density functional theory. In particular, we study the influence of an applied gate voltage which modifies the electronic states of the bilayer graphene as well as shifts the a…
A novel prodrug of pegylated methotrexate conjugates (PMCs) with a high drug-carrying capability and a redox sensitive drug release mechanism was reported for intracellular drug delivery. The PMC was structured in a H-shape with four molecules of anticancer drug methotrexate (MTX) linked to both ends of the PEG main c…
Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is applied to investigate aggregation behavior of an anionic conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) featuring branched carboxylate groups (PPE-(d)CO2) upon the addition of different metal ions. FCS results reveal that monovalent metal ions (Na(+), K(+)) bind to the CPE chain but d…
We present a series of non-stoichiometric cadmium sulfide quantum-dot (QD) models. Using density functional theory (DFT) and semi-empirical molecular orbital (MO) calculations, we explore the ligand binding and exchange chemistry of these models. Their surface morphology allows for these processes to be rationalized o…
In this study, aluminosilicate sol-gel coatings were deposited on Type 430 stainless steel by multiple spin casting cycles. Amorphous aluminosilicate coatings, 65 nm thick, were prepared from precursor solutions with 50, 100, and 500 mmol dm −3 total concentrations of aluminum and silicon species (molar ratio of Al/Si…
