In situ characterization of colloidal particles under hydrous conditions is one of the key requirements for understanding their state of aggregation and impact on the transport of pollutants in aqueous environments. Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) is one of the few techniques that can satisfy this need b…
We have functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes using a CF4 microwave discharge and characterized the samples through in situ FTIR spectroscopy, UV–VIS–NIR spectroscopy, FT-Raman spectroscopy, SEM and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A high degree of functionalization is achieved in a very short time frame, dem…
The Re(IV) complex [ReCl4(mal)]2-, in the form of two slightly different salts, (AsPh4)1.5(HNEt3)0.5[ReCl4(mal)] (1a) and (AsPh4)(HNEt3)[ReCl4(mal)] (1b), and the Re(IV)-Cu(II) bimetallic complexes [ReCl4(mu-mal)Cu(phen)2].CH3CN (2), [ReCl4(mu-mal)Cu(bpy)2] (3), and [ReCl4(mu-mal)Cu(terpy)] (4) (mal=malonate dianion,…
A simple and convenient method is described to produce gold nanowires. A controlled organization of Au colloids into linear assemblies was achieved without using any templates. HAuCl 4 was reduced by NaBH 4 in the presence of lysine to act as capping and bridging agent. At a molar ratio of Au/Lys = 1:0.5 and pH in the…
The reactions of Rh4(CO)12 and Ir4(CO)12 with Ph3SnH have yielded the new Rh-Sn and Ir-Sn cluster complexes M3(CO)6(mu-SnPh2)3(SnPh3)3, 1 (M=Rh) and 2 (M=Ir). Both compounds contain triangular M3 clusters with three bridging SnPh2 and three terminal SnPh3 ligands. The M-M bonds are unusually long. Molecular orbital ca…
By means of x-ray absorption fine structure and Raman scattering spectroscopies we demonstrate that the structure of amorphous GeTe is likely to be a mixture of 4(Ge):2(Te) and 3(Ge):3(Te)-coordinated structural units. Upon crystallization, a rhombohedral (distorted rocksalt) structure is established with about 10% of…
A series of pyridyl amides derived from isonicotinic acid, nicotinic acid, and benzoic acid have been synthesized. Only N-(4-pyridyl)isonicotinamide 1 is found to be an efficient hydrogelator with a minimum gelator concentration of 0.37 wt %. A wide range of concentrations (0.37-20 wt %) could be used to form hydrogel…
In this letter we report the Raman spectra of vanadate nanotubes (VONTs). The spectra present a clear signature that can be used for probing the tubular structure. The temperature effects on the structure of dodecylamine- and Cu-intercalated VONTs were studied by changing the laser power density during the Raman measu…
In the present study the catalytic activities of several TiO 2 -supported metal and metal oxide catalysts have been tested simultaneously for the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides with ammonia (NH 3 -SCR) using high-throughput-screening equipment. Two different series of various catalyst samples were ev…
Polyelectrolyte multilayer adsorption on mica was studied by the streaming potential method in the parallel-plate channel setup. The technique was calibrated by performing model measurements of streaming potential by using monodisperse latex particles. Two types of polyelectrolytes were used in our studies: poly(allyl…
The cycloreversion (ring-opening) process of one of the photochromic diarylethene derivatives, bis(2-methyl-5-phenylthiophen-3-yl)perfluorocyclopentene, was investigated by means of picosecond and femtosecond laser photolysis methods. The drastic enhancement of the reaction yield was observed only by the picosecond la…
A protein sensor based on nanostructured adaptive silver films (ASFs) is developed for soft protein adsorption and detection with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Under protein deposition, the ASFs modify their local nanostructure so that the conformational state of proteins is preserved and SERS is optimized…
The molecular radical 1,3,2-dithiazolo[4,5-b]pyrazin-2-yl (PDTA) exhibits magnetic bistability just above room temperature, undergoing a well-defined hysteretic phase change with TC downward arrow = 297(1) K and TC upward arrow = 343(1) K. The crystal structures of the two phases of PDTA have been determined by single…
We demonstrate a novel approach for the large-scale, shape-controlled synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) corrugated nanoarrays of Pb(1-x)Mn(x)Se nanocrystals (0.002 < or = x < or = 0.008) through an in-situ self-assembly without using either capping polymer or ionic surfactant. The one-step-prepared 1D nanoarrays exhib…
The monometallic precursors L1Cu and L2Cu (L1H2 standing for 1,3-bis((3-ethoxysalicylidene)amino) propane and L2H2 standing for 1,2-bis((3-methoxysalicylidene)amino) ethane) react with sodium dicyanamide (dca) (NaN3C2), a mixture of gadolinium nitrate, and sodium dicyanamide to yield heterodinuclear L2CuNa(NCNCN) and…
Abstract In contrast to the regular morphologies displayed by synthetic single crystals, biogenic single crystals frequently exhibit unusual forms and curved surfaces. Such controlled mineralization in biology occurs within restricted volumes constructed for this purpose and there is significant evidence that some cry…

A family of binary oxide compositions, including titania−zirconia, titania−alumina, alumina−zirconia, zirconia−silica, and alumina−silica, with a hierarchically bimodal mesoporous−macroporous structure has been prepared. The macropores are in one-dimensional orientation, parallel with each other, and the macroporous f…
A catalyst of copper oxide supported on cerium oxide has been characterized by XRD, Raman, XAFS, XPS, and EPR techniques. Its redox properties under CO/O 2 have been explored with XPS and EPR. The results reveal the presence of mainly CuO-related species highly dispersed over the nanosized ceria support and essentiall…
Cryptocrystal layers of ammonium silicon fluoride (NH4)2SiF6 were grown on silicon wafers by dry etching using the vapors of HF:HNO3 solution at room temperature. As-grown layers are composed of white granular crystalline film with thicknesses of up to 8 micrometer which were synthesized with growth rates of around 1…
