Hydrophobically coated anatase TiO(2) nanorods can assist the reduction of AuCl(4) (-)ions at aqueous/nonpolar solvent interfaces, which results in the generation of organic-soluble Au nanoparticles with tunable size in the absence of any metal ligands and/or phase-transfer agents. The titania-nanorod-driven modulatio…
The use of nanoporous host materials for luminescent guests has been extended into the near-infrared (NIR) regime using sodalite derivatives containing rare earth ions and the tungstate group (see Figure). The emission intensities obtained for Nd3+ meet or even surpass commercial Nd glasses. While Nd3+-tungstate-modif…
The formation of nanoporous TiO2 by anodization of titanium films deposited on silicon substrates was investigated. Films with homogeneously distributed pores having an average pore diameter of 25 nm and interpore distance of 40 nm were obtained by anodization in an aqueous HF electrolyte solution after a comprehensiv…
We have used the molecular-dynamic method for the calculation of the structural, dynamic and elastic properties of group BeS , BeSe and BeTe compounds for temperature ranging from 300 to 1200 K. Tersoff potential has been used to model the interaction between the groups II–VI compound atoms. The structural properties…
A variational model is formulated that accounts for the localization of deformation due to buckling under pure bending of thin-walled elastic tubes with circular cross-sections. Previous studies have successfully modelled the gradual process of ovalization of the cross-section with an accompanying progressive reductio…
Acute spines and cones of calcite similar to biominerals in mollusks were grown in an aqueous solution system containing low- and high-molecular-weight poly(acrylic acid). The tapering morphologies consisting of polymer-mediated calcite bricks with a preferred crystallographic orientation were produced by the self-org…
A thick layer of pure boron nitride (BN) nanowires with a uniform diameter of 20 nm was synthesized for the first time using a CVD process with a new precursor of boron triiodide (BI 3 ). Transmission electron microscopy revealed a nanocrystalline structure in the BN nanowires and the absence of any catalyst particle.…
A novel spontaneous ion replacement route based on the solubility difference as the driving force to synthesize a number of metal oxides has been established. We present a comprehensive study on the ion replacement reaction for chemical synthesis of micro- and nanostructured Mn2O3, ZnO, CuO, CdO, Al2O3, and CaO sample…
ZnO/Zn0.8Mg0.2O coaxial nanorod heterostructures were prepared by employing catalyst-free metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy, and their structural and photoluminescent (PL) properties were investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and temperature-dependent PL spectroscopy. TEM images show that ZnO/Zn0.8…
Spatially and temporally resolved energy-dispersive EXAFS (EDE) has been utilised in situ to study supported Rh nanoparticles during CO oxidation by O2 under plug-flow conditions. Three distinct phases of Rh supported upon Al2O3 were identified by using EDE at the Rh K-edge during CO oxidation. Their presence and inte…
Abstract Summary: New polyindolocarbazoles (PIC) and polydiindolocarbazoles (PDIC) have been synthesized using Yamamoto polymerization reaction. These polymers have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry, UV‐Vis‐NIR spectroelectrochemistry, electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance, in situ electron spin resonance,…
Silica films containing various concentrations of Ag nanoparticles were deposited on glass slides using a sol–gel process and then heat-treated in air at different temperatures. The films were analysed by using UV–visible spectrophotometry, atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmissio…
Hydrogen adsorption on the recently discovered boron nanotubes, BNTs, and on boron sheets is investigated by density functional calculations. Both molecular physisorption and dissociative atomic chemisorption are considered. The geometric and electronic structures of BNTs and boron sheets have been elucidated. These t…
Au nanocages were synthesized via a galvanic replacement reaction. The extinction peak of these hollow structured particles is shifted into the near-IR compared with the Ag nanocube templates. Energy transfer from the Au nanocages into the surrounding environment (water) as well as the coherently excited vibrational m…
Two new azido-bridged polyoxometalate compounds were synthesized in acetonitrile/methanol media and their molecular structures have been determined by X-ray crystallography. The [[(gamma-SiW10O36)Mn2(OH)2(N3)(0.5)(H2O)(0.5)]2(mu-1,3-N3)](10-) (1 a) tetranuclear Mn(III) complex, in which an end-to-end N3- ligand acts a…
Abstract The electronic and magnetic structure of the low‐temperature phase of ScMnO 3 was studied theoretically from first principles. The solid phase was modeled with periodic supercells using three different methods: unrestricted Hartree–Fock, B3LYP and BLYP. The magnetic coupling constants obtained with these meth…
Nanocrystalline CaWO4 and Eu3+ (Tb3+)-doped CaWO4 phosphor layers were coated on non-aggregated, monodisperse and spherical SiO2 particles by the Pechini sol?gel method, resulting in the formation of SiO2@CaWO4, SiO2@CaWO4:Eu3+/Tb3+ core?shell structured particles. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared s…
Heterodiamond ${\mathrm{BC}}_{2}\mathrm{N}$, as a kind of superhard material expectable, is studied using the ab initio pseudopotential density functional method. All the calculations are performed after geometric optimization starting from an eight-atom zinc-blende structure unit cell. For all the structures possible…
Abstract High‐strain, high‐force mechanical actuation technologies are desirable for numerous applications ranging from microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) to large‐scale “smart structures” that are able to change shape to optimize performance. Here we show that electrochemical intercalation of inorganic compounds o…
