The ferromagnetic response from Co-doped CeO2 epilayers is shown to be linked to the formation of Co metallic nanowires (diameters in the 3–7 nm range) within the oxide matrix. These results (i) illustrate the key role of the shape anisotropy of metallic inclusions in diluted magnetic oxides (DMO), (ii) stress the imp…
Magnesium borate hydroxide (MBH) nanowhiskers were synthesized using a one step hydrothermal process with different surfactants. The effect surfactants have on the structure and morphology of the MBH nanowhiskers has been investigated. The X-ray diffraction profile confirms that the as-synthesized material is of singl…
Effect of growth orientation on charge- and orbital-ordering (CO-OO) phenomena has been studied for Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3 epitaxial thin films fabricated on (LaAlO3)0.3–(SrAl0.5Ta0.5O3)0.7 (LSAT) substrates by means of resistivity, synchrotron x-ray diffraction, and polarized optical microscopy measurements. CO-OO transition…
The authors report on the field emission from controlled selective grown zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorod arrays by hydrothermal reaction. With the combined effect from a ZnO seed layer and a passivation layer for nanorod growth, ZnO nanorods could only grow on the edge of a 4 μm diameter circle. The ZnO nanorods hollow array…
Magnesium-based alloys are promising candidates as potential hydrogen storage materials due to their inherent high hydrogen contents. Small particle size which can be achieved by milling and small amounts of transition-metal compounds as catalysts result in increased hydrogen release/uptake kinetics. In this work, we…
CdS-based nanocrystals (NCs) have attracted extensive interest due to their potential application as key luminescent materials for blue and white LEDs. In this research, the continuous synthesis of monodisperse CdS NCs was demonstrated utilizing a capillary microreactor. The enhanced heat and mass transfer in the micr…
Highly luminescent Ag-ion-doped Cd1-xZnxS (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) alloy nanocrystals were successfully synthesized by a novel wet chemical precipitation method. Influence of dopant concentration and the Zn/Cd stoichiometric variations in doped alloy nanocrystals have been investigated. The samples were characterized by X-ray diff…
A novel composition using 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxyl (TEMPO) and dicumyl peroxide (DCP) for scorch delay and control of the final network topology of polydimethylvinylmethylsiloxane (vinyl-PDMS) at high temperatures has been proposed. The evolution of linear viscoelasticity during cross-linking reaction was ca…
The combination of physisorption experiments with simultaneous in situ small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering (SAXS/SANS) was used to elucidate the porosity in mesoporous silica with a trimodal pore structure. The material ("KLE-IL") contains spherical mesopores of 14 nm in diameter, worm-like mesopores (2-3 nm), an…
An alternative diffraction technique, based on grazing incidence scattering of high energy atoms, is applied to surface structure determination of crystalline surfaces. This technique, named GIFAD for grazing incidence fast atom diffraction, uses the same geometry as reflection high energy electron diffraction but is…
Ultrafast transient absorption experiments have been performed on single CdTe and CdSe nanowires with close to diffraction-limited spatial resolution. The traces for the CdTe nanowires show fast picosecond time scale dynamics, which is assigned to charge carrier trapping at surface states. The time constants vary for…
Nowadays, the market demand for environmentally friendly materials is rapidly increasing. Biodegradable fibers and biodegradable polymers, mainly extracted from renewable resources, are expected to be a major contribution to the production of new industrial high performance biodegradable composites, partially solving…
Using an atomic force microscopy, we have measured the separation dependence of the force between an atomically flat mica sheet and a micrometer-sized glass sphere immersed in the nematic liquid crystal. As the mica surface induces a strong parallel alignment and the treated glass sphere induces a strong perpendicular…
A rapid, water-soluble enzyme-mediated radical chain initiation system involving glucose oxidase and Fe(2+) generated hydrogels within minutes at 25 degrees C and in ambient oxygen. The initiation components were evaluated for their effect on polymerization rates of hydroxyethyl acrylate-poly(ethylene glycol)(575) dia…
In this paper, a systematic study on preparation of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-supported nickel catalyst is pursued. Functional groups are introduced on the surface of MWCNTs using nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and partial oxidation in air. Nickel oxide nanoparticles are formed on the surface of functionalized…
This paper reports the evaluation of the cubic B site cation-ordered double perovskite system Ba 2 Co 2− x (Mo 1/2 Nb 1/2 ) x O 6, resulting in the single phase composition Ba 2 CoMo 0.5 Nb 0.5 O 6−δ (BCMN) with a mixed Co charge state stabilized by a combination of Mo and Nb doping as a new mixed conductor with poten…
We investigate the energetics and electronic structure of multiatomic vacancies in hexagonal boron nitride $(h\text{-BN})$ based on the local-density approximation in the density-functional theory. We find that the energetics of vacancies strongly depends not only on the environmental condition of boron and nitrogen c…
Two novel recombinant proteins An16 and Dros16 have recently been generated. These recombinant proteins contain, respectively, sixteen copies of an 11 amino acid repetitive domain (AQTPSSQYGAP) observed in a resilin-like gene from Anopheles gambiae and sixteen copies of a 15 amino acid repetitive domain (GGRPSDSYGAPGG…
Strain glass has recently been reported in Ti50−xNi50+x (x≥1.5 at %) alloys and caused by the existence of point defects. This strain glass alloy, being nonmartensitic, exhibits shape memory effect (SME) and superelasticity (SE) around the freezing temperature T0. However, the T0 of Ti50−xNi50+x (x≥1.5 at %) strain gl…
Abstract Compact and uniform superhydrophobic films were prepared on copper substrates using one‐step solution‐immersion process, and the appropriate preparation conditions were selected for mixed solutions. SEM shows that the hybrid film of 1‐dodecanethiol and tetradecanoic acid on copper substrate is more compact wi…
