The next generation of diesel emission control devices includes 4-way catalyzed filtration systems (4WCFS) consisting of both NOx and diesel particulate matter (DPM) control. A methodology was developed to simultaneously evaluate the NOx and DPM control performance of miniature 4WCFS made from acicular mullite, an adv…
This article investigates the dehydrogenation behavior of the LiBH 4 –YH 3 composite under various early-stage Ar back-pressure conditions. It is clearly observed that a minute change in early-stage atmosphere greatly affects the overall dehydrogenation reaction of the composite. Free boron and Li 2 B 12 H 12 start to…
In this article, multi-walled carbon nanotubes were noncovalently functionalized with different metal phthalocyanines by π–π stacking method. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes were dispersed by sonication into the phthalocyanines solution in chloroform or N, N-dimethyl formamide before refined purification by centrifugati…
The atomic and electronic properties of the Cs/SrTiO${}_{3}$ heterostructure are investigated using density functional theory. Our results suggest that an antiferrodistortive (AFD) or a ferroelectric (FE) like distortion could be induced in SrTiO${}_{3}$ (STO) by a Cs layer, depending on the interface bonding geometry…
(75)As NMR investigation of a single crystal of superconducting LiFeAs is presented. The Knight shift and the in situ ac susceptibility measurements as a function of temperature and external field are indicative of two superconducting (SC) transition temperatures, each of which is associated with its own upper critica…
Li3 PO4 phosphor was prepared using a modified solid-state diffusion technique. In this work, photoluminescence, lyoluminescence and mechanoluminescence studies were carried out in a Li3 PO4 microcrystalline powder doped with different rare earths. In photoluminescence studies, characteristic emission of Ce and Eu was…
Liquid crystals (LCs) are often known as electronic displays and have become ubiquitous in our daily life, apart from that, in the past 10 years, LCs have been investigated as exquisitely sensitive reporters for developing new molecular sensing and detection tools. The unique and primary advantage of this class of int…
The stabilization of peptide's active conformation is a critical determinant of its target binding efficiency. Here we present a structure-based self-assembly strategy for the design of nanostructures with multiple and thermostable α-helices using bioinspired peptide amphiphiles. The design principle was inspired by t…
Magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of cubic Laves phase RCoNi (R = Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho) compounds have been studied. The RCoNi (R = Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho) compounds order ferromagnetically at ∼200 K, ∼113 K, ∼68 K, and ∼42 K (TC), respectively. Field dependent magnetization data of RCoNi at 5 K in fields up to 7 T rev…
Cross-linking of biocompatible ligand shells significantly improves the stability of nanocrystals in the biological environment. We report a detailed spectroscopic study of radical initiated reactions on poly(isoprene)- b -poly(ethelene glycol) encapsulated CdSe/CdS/ZnS core–shell–shell quantum dots. It was found that…
NiTi is promising for the use as bone scaffold, because the pseudoelasticity or the one- and two-way shape memory effect in the physiological window can mechanically stimulate the adherent cells. Such stimuli can enhance osseointegration and might reduce stress shielding associated with load bearing implants. The pres…
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have extensive potential industrial applications due to their unique physical and chemical properties; yet this also increases the chance of human and environment exposure to SWCNTs. Due to the current lack of hazardous effect information on SWNCTs, a standardized genotoxicity b…
Unicellular algae called diatoms morph biomineral compounds into tough exoskeletons via complex intracellular processes about which there is much to be learned. These exoskeletons feature a rich variety of structures from submicroscale to milliscale, many that have not been reproduced in vitro. In order to help unders…
We show that in the presence of a rapidly modulated dielectric permittivity with a large modulation depth (Kapitza medium) a novel and robust regime of diffractionless electromagnetic propagation occurs. This happens when the mean value to depth ratio of the dielectric profile is comparable to the small ratio between…
A simple and effective route to improve the fluorescence of carbon dots is reported. A weak fluorescent solution was obtained by a diminution step to obtain tiny particles from bagasse-based carbonaceous blocks. This solution was subjected to hydrothermal treatment under alkaline conditions to improve its fluorescent…
The continuous development of science and technology in all industrial sectors means connecting and usage of a wide range of new knowledge together with implementation of new modern technologies for production of materials with high functional, specific and special properties. Intermetallic compounds TiNi with shape-m…
Anomalous trends in nanoparticle correlation and motion are reported in soft nanoparticle suspensions using static and dynamic x-ray scattering measurements. Contrary to normal expectations, we find that particle-particle correlations decrease and particle dynamics become faster as volume fraction rises above a critic…
An active elastodynamic cloak destructively interferes with an incident time harmonic in-plane (coupled compressional/shear) elastic wave to produce zero total elastic field over a finite spatial region. A method is described which explicitly predicts the source amplitudes of the active field. For a given number of so…
This paper reports a systematic investigation of corrosion in 0.6 mol/l NaCl of freshly polished 1050‐H24, 6082‐T6, 2024‐T3 and 7075‐T6 Al alloys by single‐cycle anodic polarization using different anodic current limits for scan reversal (i rev ). For all alloys but Al 1050‐H24, an inflection point was repeatedly iden…
The characterization of energy influxes from plasma to substrate during sputter deposition of ZnO films is presented and discussed. Measurements were carried out in a triple rf magnetron sputter deposition system using calorimetric probes in various Ar/N 2 and Ar/H 2 mixtures at typical substrate positions. By variati…
