The nature of the dendrimer-mycophenolic acid (MPA) complex was investigated by (1)H NMR and 2D NOESY spectroscopy. The (1)H NMR analysis proved that the water-soluble supramolecular structure of the complex was formed based on ionic interactions between dendrimers and MPA molecules on the surface as well as hydrophob…

Arrays of ZnO nanowires with different lengths (0.5–2 μm) and diameters (100–330 nm) were electrodeposited to study the influence of the nanowire dimensions on light scattering. The nanowire length and diameter were found to be major parameters in modifying the intensity and the wavelength of the scattered radiation,…

We demonstrate the rapid optical characterization of large numbers of individual metal nanoparticles freely diffusing in colloidal solution by confocal laser spectroscopy to guide nanoparticle engineering and optimization. We use ratios of the Rayleigh and Raman scattering response and rotational diffusion timescales…

This paper presents the formation of low temperature colloidosomes from colloidal poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate) particles for both water-in-oil and oil-in-water systems. An investigation into the sintering conditions examines the ultimate shell morphology formed, with longer sintering times and higher sintering temp…

The effects of chemical order on the phase stability and magnetic properties of the metamagnetic shape memory alloy Ni45Co5Mn36.7In13.3 were investigated. Alloys quenched from the B2 and L21 phase regions were found to transform to the L10 and 6M martensite phases, respectively. For alloys quenched from the B2 region…

Lubricants can affect quasicrystalline coatings surfaces by modifying commensurability of the interfaces. We report results of the first computer simulation studies of physically adsorbed hydrocarbons on a quasicrystalline surface: methane, propane, and benzene on decagonal Al-Ni-Co. The grand canonical Monte Carlo me…

The adsorption and dissociation of O$_{2}$ molecules at the Be(0001) surface is studied by using density-functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation and a supercell approach. The physi- and chemisorbed molecular precursor states are identified to be along the parallel and vertical channels, respect…

We report results of non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of a one-component glassy system under the influence of a shear flow, with the aim of investigating shear induced ordering of this system. In spite of the very low temperature, the system transforms into a strained crystalline state through well defin…

We investigated magnetic and magnetocaloric properties in Sm1−xSrxMnO3(x=0.3–0.5). We report a magnetic field-driven first-order metamagnetic transition in the paramagnetic state in x=0.4 and 0.5 and a second-order transition in x=0.3. The highest magnetic entropy (−ΔSm=1.41 J/mol K for ΔH=5 T at T=125 K) that occurs…

We demonstrate trench channeling of mono- and multilayer graphenes with silver nanoparticles with high speed in ambient environment and at elevated temperatures. A silver nanoparticle located at a graphene edge catalyzes oxidation of neighboring carbon atoms, thereby burning a trench into the graphene layer. High-reso…

Biodegradable poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)(pHEMA) hydrogels for engineered tissue constructs were developed by the use of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), a degradable cross-linker, and a macroinitiator. Hydrogels are appropriate materials for tissue engineering scaffolds because of their tissue-like…

Abstract Triple‐shape polymers can move from a first shape (A) to a second shape (B) and from there to a third shape (C), where both shape changes are induced by temperature increases. This triple‐shape capability is obtained for multiphase polymer networks after application of a complex thermomechanical programming p…

Electrons in graphene, behaving as massless relativistic Dirac particles, provide a new perspective on the relation between condensed matter and high-energy physics. We discuss atomic collapse, a novel state of superheavy atoms stripped of their discrete energy levels, which are transformed into resonant states. Charg…

Past research in the field of shape memory polymers has led to significant advancements in the areas of so-called one-way and two-way (reversible) shape memory. While one-way shape memory polymers allow indefinite fixing of a temporary shape until triggered thermally to recover to an equilibrium shape, two-way shape m…

In this work a μ=−1 metamaterial (MM) lens for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is demonstrated. MRI uses surface coils to detect the radio frequency (rf) energy absorbed and emitted by the nuclear spins in the imaged object. The proposed MM lens manipulates the rf field detected by these surface coils so that the coi…

The electronic origin of the huge magnetostructural effect in layered Fe-As compounds is elucidated using LiFeAs as a prototype. The crucial feature of these materials is the strong covalent bonding between Fe and As, which tends to suppress the exchange splitting. The bonding-antibonding splitting is very sensitive t…

Self organizing anisotropic nematic liquid crystals (LCs) induce self-assembly on quantum dots (QDs) to form one-dimensional chains along the nematic director. Spatial ordering of QDs, achieved in the nematic LC matrix, can be controlled in a preferred direction on application of electric fields, gaining better self-a…
