In this paper we summarize our many years of experience in the preparation and optimization of stable colloids of ferroelectric nanoparticles dispersed in an isotropic carrier and in a liquid crystal host. The colloids are of interest for use in electro-optic devices, photorefractive hybrids and nonlinear optical elem…
Size-controlled, catalytically active nanoparticles are successfully encapsulated in a one-pot synthesis to form novel hierarchical macroporous core@mesoporous shell structures, where macroporous cores are connected by uniform and ordered mesoporous channels. Most importantly, the encapsulated nanoparticles can be use…
OBJECTIVE: Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a clinical syndrome linked with exposure in renal failure patients to gadolinium-based magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents (GBCAs). The pathogenesis of the disease is largely unknown. The present study addresses potential pathophysiological mechanisms. MATERIALS…
When envisioned at the relevant length scale, plasticity of crystalline solids consists in the transport of dislocations through the lattice. In this paper, transport of dislocations is evidenced by experimental data gathered from high-resolution extensometry carried out on copper single crystals in tension. Spatiotem…
Maghemite (gamma-Fe2O3) nanoparticles were obtained by the coprecipitation of Fe(II) and Fe (III) salts with ammonium hydroxide followed by oxidation with sodium hypochlorite. Solution radical polymerization of N,N-dimethylacrylamide(DMAAm) in the presence of maghemite nanoparticles yielded poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide…
We report here a novel one-step electrochemical method to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) micro−nano hierarchical porous gold films (PGFs) by the surface rebuilding of smooth gold substrates in a blank solution of NaOH with square wave potential pulse. The potential is controlled such that it involves repeated gold o…
Some Pluronics, particularly F127, are known to stabilize nanospheres and prolong their circulation time in vivo. However, these copolymers of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(propylene glycol) are not biodegradable, and despite the long history, there is no approved commercial product using F127 for parenteral ad…
We evaluate the transmission and conductance through magnetic barrier structures in bilayer graphene. In particular we consider a magnetic step, single and double barriers, $\ensuremath{\delta}$-function barriers, as well as barrier structures that have average magnetic field equal to zero. The transmission depends st…
The idea of isotropic resonant magnetism in the visible range of frequencies known from precedent publications was developed having in mind achievements of modern chemistry. Plasmonic colloidal nanoparticles covering a silica core form a cluster with resonant and isotropic magnetic responses. Two approximate models gi…
Sulforhodamine B (SRB) and dodecylbenzenesulfonate (DBS) with different molar ratios cointercalated into the interlayer region of Mg-Al-layered double hydroxide (SRB-DBS/LDH) were prepared. The structure and chemical composition of the composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermogravi…
We use molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the coupling and decoupling between translational and rotational dynamics in a glass-forming liquid of dumbbells. We find that the coupling between the translational (tau_{q;{*}};{C}) and rotational (tau_{2}) relaxation times increases with decreasing temperature T,…

The effect of Co on the structural, magnetic and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of Ni 50− x Co x Mn 38 Sb 12 ( x = 0, 2, 3, 4, 5) Heusler alloys was studied. Using x-ray diffraction, we show the evolution of the martensitic phase from the austenite phase. The martensitic transition temperature is found to decrease monoto…
We study a model thin film containing diluted bilayer structure with the RKKY long-range interaction. The magnetic subsystem is composed of two magnetically doped layers, separated by an undoped nonmagnetic spacer and placed inside a wider film modelled by a quantum well of infinite depth. We focus our study on the ra…
The rhombic dodecahedral Au nanocrystals enclosed by 12 {110} facets could be readily prepared without the use of any seeds, surfactants, or foreign metal ions but only with N,N-dimethylformamide as both reductant and solvent.
We present a comparative study of ultrafast photo-conversion dynamics in tetracene (Tc) and pentacene (Pc) single crystals and Pc films using optical pump-probe spectroscopy. Photo-induced absorption in Tc and Pc crystals is activated and temperature-independent respectively, demonstrating dominant singlet-triplet exc…
Using discrete simulations, we investigate the behavior of a model granular material within an annular shear cell. Specifically, two-dimensional assemblies of disks are placed between two circular walls, the inner one rotating with prescribed angular velocity, while the outer one may expand or shrink and maintains a c…
A heavy-metal-free luminescent quantum dot (QD) based on doped zinc sulfide (ZnS), conjugated with a cancer-targeting ligand, folic acid (FA), is presented as a promising bio-friendly system for targeted cancer imaging. Doped QDs were prepared by a simple aqueous method at room temperature. X-ray diffraction and trans…
We study catalyst−support and catalyst−carbon interactions during the chemical vapor deposition of single-walled carbon nanotubes by combining environmental transmission microscopy and in situ, time-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We present direct evidence of what constitutes catalyst functionality by comp…
Compounds (299) containing 494 symmetrically independent pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate moieties have been investigated. Among them the structures of Na(3)[Nd(Pydc)(3)].14H(2)O and Na(3)[Er(Pydc)(3)].11.5H(2)O, where H(2)Pydc is pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, while the…
