Effects of pressure on the structures and magnetic properties of three types of 3-D cyanide-bridged bimetallic coordination polymer magnets, MnIICrIII ferrimagnet [Mn(en)]3[Cr(CN)6]2.4H2O (1; en = ethylenediamine), NiIICrIII ferromagnet [Ni(dipn)]3[Cr(CN)6]2.3H2O (2; dipn = N,N-di(3-aminopropyl)amine), and NiIIFeIII f…
Using Monte Carlo simulations and mean field calculations for a cell model of water we find a dynamic crossover in the orientational correlation time tau from non-Arrhenius behavior at high temperatures to Arrhenius behavior at low temperatures. This dynamic crossover is independent of whether water at very low temper…
We present a novel and effective food-borne bacteria detection method. A hetero-structured silicon/gold nanorod array fabricated by the glancing angle deposition method is functionalized with anti-Salmonella antibodies and organic dye molecules. Due to the high aspect ratio nature of the Si nanorods, dye molecules att…
Two double-cysteine mutants of a small protein judiciously modified so that the cysteines appear at axially opposite sides of the native fold were prepared such that different axes were defined in the two mutants. Upon reduction, the disulfide bonds are broken, and the proteins act as bifunctional ligands toward Ag na…
Abstract In the present work, the kinetics of the epoxidation of soybean oil (SBO) by peroxyacetic acid (PAA) generated in situ in the presence of sulfuric acid as the catalyst was studied at various temperatures (45, 65 and 75 °C). It was found that epoxidation with almost complete conversion of unsaturated carbon an…
Recently, a gene cluster involving a phosphorylase specific for lacto-N-biose I (LNB; Galbeta1-3GlcNAc) and galacto-N-biose (GNB; Galbeta1-3GalNAc) has been found in Bifidobacterium longum. We showed that the solute-binding protein of a putative ATP-binding cassette-type transporter encoded in the cluster crystallizes…
In this study, we investigated the microstructural transformations that take place during carbonate formation in the earthworm's calciferous gland by analysing the evolution from the precursor fluid of the solid phases (spherulites) to the final carbonate concretions released by the gland. Results from HREM and electr…
Using a one-step procedure we have prepared magnetic fluids comprising of polyelectrolyte stabilized magnetite nanoparticles. These nanocomposites are comprised of linear, chain-like assemblies of magnetic nanoparticles, which can be aligned in parallel arrays by an external magnetic field. We have shown the potential…
An original all-dielectric design that performs cloaking at 0.58 THz is demonstrated. The cloak consists of radially positioned micrometer-sized ferroelectric cylinders which exhibit under Mie theory a strong magnetic resonance. Full-wave simulations coupled with a field-summation retrieval technique were employed to…
We report the observation of room temperature ferromagnetism in high quality, single crystalline dilute Fe-doped $\mathrm{Ba}\mathrm{Ti}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$. The large equilibrium solubility of Fe ions in the matrix refutes uncertainties about secondary phase magnetism, which has often eclipsed this interesting field of…
We describe the fabrication of a patterned, hydrophobic silicon substrate that can pin a water droplet despite its large contact angle. Arrays of nm tips in silicon were fabricated by reactive ion etching using polymer masks defined by photolithography. A droplet sitting on one class of these substrates did not fall e…
Abstract The solution approach was employed to yield multifunctional amorphous Gd 2 O(CO 3 ) 2 · H 2 O colloidal spheres by reflux of an aqueous solution containing GdCl 3 · 6H 2 O and urea. By elongating the reaction time, crystalline rhombus‐ shaped Gd 2 O(CO 3 ) 2 · H 2 O with at least 87% yield could be formed and…
We present a detailed analysis of the incident-photon-energy and polarization dependences of the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra at the Cu $K$ edge in La$_{2}$CuO$_{4}$. Our analysis is based on the formula developed by Nomura and Igarashi, which describes the spectra by a product of an incident-pho…
Abstract A facile method is developed to synthesize aligned arrays of open‐ended carbon nanotubes (CNTs) via in situ glucose polymerization in the inner pores of anodic aluminum oxide templates under hydrothermal conditions, followed by carbonization at high temperature. Pt nanoparticles are decorated on the surfaces…
A facile patterning method for the functionalization of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes is described. Modification of the surface of nanotube forests with hydrophilic, hydrophobic, or polymerizable small molecules was achieved via UV-triggered attachment of perfluoroarylazides. Multiple functionalizations of the t…
Abstract Novel quaternary gallium‐doped phosphate‐based glasses (1, 3, and 5 mol % Ga 2 O 3 ) were synthesized using a conventional melt quenching technique. The bactericidal activities of the glasses were tested against both Gram‐negative ( Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ) and Gram‐positive ( Staphylococ…
We have studied the adsorption of gas molecules (CO, NO, NO2, O2, N2, CO2, and NH3) on graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) using first principles methods. The adsorption geometries, adsorption energies, charge transfer, and electronic band structures are obtained. We find that the electronic and transport properties of the GN…
The (001) surfaces of polar perovskites $\mathrm{Ba}\mathrm{Ti}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ and $\mathrm{Pb}\mathrm{Ti}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ have been studied from first principles at $T=0\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$. For both cases of polarization, the most stable TiO-terminated interfaces show intrinsic ferroelectricity.…
The propagation of a head-to-head magnetic domain-wall (DW) or a tail-to-tail DW in a magnetic nanowire under a static field along the wire axis is studied. Relationship between the DW velocity and DW structure is obtained from the energy consideration. The role of the energy dissipation in the field-driven DW motion…
The activated surface diffusion of interacting adsorbates is described in terms of the so-called interacting single adsorbate approximation, which is applied to the diffusion of Na atoms on Cu(001) for coverages up to 20% in quasielastic He atom scattering experiments. This approximation essentially consists of solvin…
