Two-component amphiphiles based on hydrogen-bonded complexes between terephthaloylbisalanine (H(2)TBA) and dodecylamine (DA) are able to self-assemble into nano- and microsized superstructures in an aqueous solvent. It is possible to modulate the morphology of these self-assembled superstructures by modifying the comp…

We report efficient and long-lived exciton photoluminescence (PL) from inverted core/shell ZnSe:Mn/CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) at room temperature. Contrary to low temperature-sensitivity of Mn2+ PL from ZnSe:Mn/ZnSe NCs, the Mn2+-assisted excitonic PL from the ZnSe:4%Mn/CdSe NCs exhibits unusually high temperature-sensit…

Abstract Immiscible blends of cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) and isotactic polypropylenes (iPPs) with different melting index were extruded through a two‐strand rod die. The extrudates were hot‐drawn at the die exit at different draw ratios by controlling the drawing speed. The morphologies of iPP fibers extracted f…

This study reveals that the Ce4+ to Ce3+ ratio in CeO2 nanoparticles (<20 nm) increases with increasing temperature under a hydrogen atmosphere. Such anomalous behavior is due to the physical effect of nanoparticle sizes on increasing the oxidation state of Ce ions in CeO2, which is stronger than the chemical e…
