We performed a visualization of membrane proteins labeled with 10-nm gold nanoparticles in cells, using an all-optical method based on photothermal interference contrast. The high sensitivity of the method and the stability of the signals allows 3D imaging of individual nanoparticles without the drawbacks of photoblea…
Carbonization of aromatic sources in an aluminosilicate mesoporous template yields mesoporous carbon materials with highly graphitic framework structures and excellent mechanical strength and thermal stability (see picture). TEM analysis shows discoid graphitic layers that are packed so that the most preferred orienta…
A brief overview is provided of recent developments in the use of block copolymer self-assembly to create morphologies that may be used to template the fabrication of nanostructures in other materials. The patterning of semiconductor surfaces using block copolymer film masks and the production of high-density arrays o…
Small-angle scattering (SAS) of x-rays and neutrons is a fundamental tool in the study of biological macromolecules. The major advantage of the method lies in its ability to provide structural information about partially or completely disordered systems. SAS allows one to study the structure of native particles in nea…
We investigate cases where one can argue that sufficient conditions exist for Direct Methods to work with swift electrons. In addition to simple cases where kinematical scattering holds (e.g., surfaces in plan view), we identify three other configurations: (a) when 1s channeling holds and kinematical scattering is sta…
The EGSnrc Monte Carlo system has been used to calculate the energy response of LiF-TLDs of different sizes around 125I permanent brachytherapy sources. The source model includes the effects of an encapsulation, self-absorption within the source and in the welded ends of the encapsulation. The LiF-TLD material has cyl…
Abstract A range of continuous mixing machines were used as continuous reactors for grafting maleic anhydride onto polypropylene. The machines used were (1) a nonintermeshing modular counterrotating twin‐screw extruder, (2) an intermeshing modular corotating twin‐screw extruder, (3) intermeshing modular counterrotatin…
Abstract Carbohydrate‐functional siloxanes (CHFSs) that exhibit high intermolecular interactions and good environmental friendliness have successfully been synthesized by acid‐catalyzed transacetalation between an acetal‐functional siloxane and glucose in dimethylformamide/dioxane mixed solvents. Activated clay has pr…
A classical pair potential, augmented by three-body interactions, for the modeling of borosilazane ceramics has been derived on the basis of both experimental and ab initio data. The primary goals were a good description of structural parameters and applicability in molecular dynamics. Furthermore, major challenges we…
Electron excitation and relaxation in chromium are probed with 20-fs time resolution using an ultrafast optical technique. We obtain good fits to the data for the transient reflectivity and transmittivity changes in a thin film using a simple model of electron relaxation, suggesting the existence of an efficient elect…
The response field of a half-space anisotropic superconductor is evaluated for an arbitrary weak external field source. Example sources of a point magnetic moment and a circular current are considered in detail. For the penetration depth $\ensuremath{\lambda}\ensuremath{\ll}L$ with L being any other relevant distance…
Novel molecular energy and electron transfer assemblies in vesicular form, which are made of self-organized amphiphilic porphyrins bearing phospholipid-like substituents (lipid-porphyrins), have been photochemically characterized. Tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) derivatives with four dialkylphosphocholine groups [free-base…
Template-based electrochemical methods for the synthesis of nanostructures on the basis of new redox polymers poly[M(Schiff)] (M = Ni, Pd; Schiff = tetradentate Schiff bases) with nanowire diameters in the range of 20−200 nm were developed. Polymeric nanostructures were characterized by means of electron microscopy, c…
The interactions of Stöber silica nanospheres having diameters of ca. 40, 100, and 200 nm were studied at the water−air interface with a Wilhelmy film balance. The particle sizes and size distribution functions were determined from TEM measurements. According to in situ Brewster angle microscopy investigations and the…
Abstract Recently a method that uses water droplets at the air–solution interface as an ordered template was reported for the preparation of ordered micrometer‐size honeycomb structures. Here we show that the method can also be used for formation of honeycomb‐like porous films from random copolymers with certain hydro…
The electron-phonon interaction is calculated for electrons states in single wall carbon nanotubes. Explicit results are presented for armchair and zig-zag tubes. The scattering by acoustical phonons confirm earlier results, while the scattering by optical phonons is new.
Abstract The electronic and structural properties of LiB 3 O 5 (LBO) surfaces have been studied by X‐ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and reflectance high‐energy electron diffraction (RHEED). The as‐grown (110) crystal face and mechanically polished (001) surfaces have been investigated comparatively. Electronic s…
The same Bragg reflection in TiO2 from 12 different (CBED) patterns (from different crystals, orientations, and thicknesses) are analyzed quantitatively to evaluate the consistency of the quantitative CBED method for bond-charge mapping. The standard deviation in the resulting distribution of derived X-ray structure f…
Accurate low-order structure factors for copper metal have been measured by quantitative convergent beam electron diffraction (QCBED). The standard deviation of the measured structure factors is equal to or smaller than the most accurate measurement by any other method, including X-ray single crystal Pendellösung, Bra…
Abstract A novel aromatic amine organo‐modifier synthesized in our previous work was used to treat montmorillonite (MMT) and the organo‐modified MMT was used to prepare poly(etherimide) (PEI)/MMT nanocomposites by a melt intercalation method. MMT treated by this amine exhibited large layer‐to‐layer spacing and a high…
