Nanohybrids with magnetic iron-oxide nanoparticles (FeNPs) embedded in the multilayered silicate clay were synthesized by in situ Fe(2+)/Fe(3+) coprecipitation. The natural clay, sodium montmorillonite (Na(+)-MMT), was first modified with hydrophobic poly(oxypropylene)amine salts (POP at 2000 and 4000 g/mol M(w)). The…
Microcrystals of cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) samples exhibiting different morphologies such as rods, hexapods, octahedra, and truncated octahedra with hollows were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method and were then characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was observ…
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), functionalized by a cycloaddition reaction, were studied by ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images provided evidence for partial or total unzipping of the outer CNT layer. The formation of graphene ribbons was triggered by the STM tip, under specific operating con…
Commercial magnetic recording media employ magnetic-field-induced two different magnetization states ±M to write data. In this paper, we present a magnetic memory cell in which electric-field-induced two different coercive-field Hc states (i.e., low-Hc and high-Hc) rather than ±M are served as writing data bits. A mul…
New organic−inorganic hybrid materials that combine a bent π-conjugated aromatic core with one linear or branched carbosilane unit have been synthesized and investigated, with respect to their self-assembly in liquid crystalline (LC) phases, by means of polarizing microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X…
The activity of Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts for methanol synthesis is determined by the microstructural arrangement of the oxides among other factors. A large metal/oxide interface area seems to enhance the intrinsic activity of Cu. A novel type of Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst demonstrates the potential of this positive effect, w…
To our knowledge, this is the first description of the material properties of a high molecular weight linear polyester prepared from the methyl ester of 9-hydoxynonanoic acid (HNME). The HNME of high purity was prepared by ozonolysis of castor oil, followed by methanolysis of triglycerides. High molecular weight polye…
High thermoelectric performance of a single crystal layered compound In4Se3 was reported recently. We present here an electrical and thermal transport property study over a wide temperature range for polycrystalline samples of In4Se3 and In4Te3. Our data demonstrate that these materials are lightly doped semiconductor…
Systematic studies are presented on the effects of cantilever buckling in vector piezoresponse force microscopy (V-PFM) imaging of polarization domains in thin-film based (001)-oriented BiFeO3 nanostructures, as observed through the coupling of out-of-plane and in-plane PFM images. This effect is a strong function of…
The Heusler compound Co2FeSi is a prospective half-metallic material for spintronic applications. Defects and antisite disordering play a crucial role among the factors reducing spin polarization in such materials. To clarify effects of possible off-stoichiometry, a continuous series of model solid solutions Co3−xFexS…
We have investigated the origin of antiferromagnetism of CoO in the rocksalt structure using spin-polarized density functional theory calculations. We find that in the rocksalt structure, the superexchange interaction between the occupied and unoccupied eg states plays the dominant role, which leads to an antiferromag…
In this study, we present the preparation of zinc oxide (ZnO) and zinc hydroxide (Zn(OH) 2 ) single nanosheets for the first time. ZnO nanosheet was prepared by delamination of layered ZnO film intercalated with the dodecyl sulfate (DS − ) ion which was synthesized by cathodic electrodeposition process. In this case,…
Nanolaminates consisting of Al2O3 and TiO2 oxide sublayers were synthesized by using atomic layer deposition to produce individual layers with atomic scale thickness control. The sublayer thicknesses were kept constant for each multilayer structure, and were changed from 50 to 0.2 nm for a series of different samples.…
In this work, preparation of cereal-like architectures Y V O(4) and Y V O(4):Ln(3 + ) (Ln = Eu, Sm, Dy, Tb) was initiated using a hydrothermal method. During the formation reaction, Na(3)C(6)H(5)O(7).2H(2)O was used to effectively adjust the concentration of Y(3 + ) species necessary for cereal-like architectures. Pha…
Crystallographically anisotropic SmCo5 nanoflakes were fabricated directly by one-step surfactant-assisted high energy ball milling (HEBM) of Sm17Co83 ingot powders for 5 h in heptane and oleic acid (OA) without preprocessing or further annealing. The SmCo5 nanoflakes have a strong [001] out-of-plane texture. The thic…
The complementary use of spectroscopy and microscopy sheds light onto mutual interactions between semiconducting single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) and either a strong dendritic electron acceptor-perylenediimide-or a strong dendritic electron donor-phthalocyanine. Importantly, the stability of the perylenediimide/SWN…
Hsp104 is a ring-forming AAA+ machine that recognizes both aggregated proteins and prion-fibrils as substrates and, together with the Hsp70 system, remodels substrates in an ATP-dependent manner. Whereas the ability to disaggregate proteins is dependent on the Hsp104 M-domain, the location of the M-domain is controver…
The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond are amongst the most promising candidates for quantum information applications. Up to now the creation of such defects was highly probabilistic, requiring many copies of the nanodevice. Here we show that by employing a two step implantation process which includes low dose N…
A series of luminescent lanthanide coordination complexes, [Eu 2 (hqc) 6 (H 2 O) 4 ]·8H 2 O ( 1 ), [Ln 2 (hqc) 6 (H 2 O) 2 (DMF) 2 ]·2H 2 O (Ln = Eu ( 2 ), Dy ( 3 ), Ho ( 4 )), and [Ln 2 (hqc) 6 (H 2 O) 4 ]·2H 2 O·2DMF (Ln = Ce ( 5 ), La ( 6 ), Pr ( 7 ); Hhqc =2-hydroxyquinoline-4-carboxylic acid), have been synthesiz…
We present a quantitative analysis of the steady state electronic transport in a resistive switching device. The device is composed of a thin film of Ag$_{2}$S (solid electrolyte) contacted by a Pt nano-contact acting as ion-blocking electrode, and a large area Ag reference electrode. When applying a bias voltage both…
