Two types of room temperature detectors of terahertz laser radiation have been developed which allow in an all-electric manner to determine the plane of polarization of linearly polarized radiation and the Stokes parameters of elliptically polarized radiation, respectively. The operation of the detectors is based on p…
We report results of investigations of the structural and transport properties of GaAs/Ga 1− x In x As/GaAs quantum wells (QWs) having a 0.5–1.8 monolayer (ML) thick Mn layer, separated from the QW by a 3 nm thick spacer. The structure has hole mobility of about 2000 cm 2 (V s) −1 , being by several orders of magnitud…
In the present paper, a new spirobenzopyran derivative was synthesized and applied in simultaneously colorimetric and fluorescence ratiometric detections of Cu2+. In contrast to the virtually photochromic character of the common spirobenzopyrans in most organic solvents, this spirobenzopyran is colorless in organic aq…
Abstract Biocompatible and green luminescent monodisperse silver/phenol formaldehyde resin core/shell spheres with controllable sizes, in the range of 180 to 1000 nm, and interesting architectures (centric, eccentric, and coenocytic core/shell spheres) have been synthesized by a facile one‐step hydrothermal approach.…
Fe(3)O(4)@SiO(2) core-shell structure nanoparticles were first prepared and characterized by TEM, FTIR, XPS and XRD. Subsequently the widely used anticancer agent doxorubincin (DOX) was successfully grafted to the surface of the core-shell nanoparticles via an amide bond with the aid of a spacer arm we synthesized. Th…
Carbon nanotubes comprise a class of nanomaterials having demonstrated promise for broad ranges of potential applications. Because of difficulties associated with quantifying these materials in environmental media, however, their behaviors therein and associated potential risks are yet largely unknown. To address this…
The electronic structure, bonding and magnetism in graphene containing vacancies are studied using density-functional methods. The single-vacancy graphene ground state is spin polarized and structurally flat. The unpolarized state is non planar only for finite segments. Systems containing periodic arrays of vacancies…
The electronic and lattice dynamical properties of compressed solid SiH$_{4}$ have been calculated in the pressure range up to 300 GPa with density functional theory. We find that structures having a layered network with eight-fold SiH$_{8}$ coordination favor metallization and superconductivity. SiH$_{4}$ in these la…
The adsorption of a metal monolayer or submonolayer for the systems Ag/Au(100), Au/Ag(100), Ag/Pt(100), Pt/Ag(100), Au/Pt(100), Pt/Au(100), Au/Pd(100) and Pd/Au(100) was studied by means of lattice Monte Carlo simulations, in the presence of surface defects.
Nanocatalysts that possess large amounts of atoms on sharp corners and edges and high indexed sites are known to be more catalytically active. We report here on a novel yet simple method to synthesize in large yields a very active platinum nanocatalyst; the multiarmed nanostar single crystal. We utilize a seed mediate…
As greater quantities of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) enter the environment, they will have an increasingly important effect on the availability and transport of aqueous contaminants. As a consequence of purification, deliberate surface functionalization, and/or exposure to oxidizing agents after release to the environment…
A bioinspired foam in which cellulose nanofibrils are used to reinforce cell walls (ca. 3 µm) is presented. The nanocomposite foams are prepared by a lyophilization technique and show composite structure at the cell-wall scale. The nanocellulosic network shows remarkable mechanical performance, expressed in much-impro…
The structure and electronic properties of single-layered carbon nitride graphenes are examined computationally with hybrid-exchange functionals in periodic density functional theory calculations. Unlike pure carbon graphene that provides a metallic nanomaterial, carbon nitride graphenes form semiconductors with band…
Here, we theoretically suggest the possibility of employing a multilayered plasmonic shell as a cloak for reducing the total scattering cross section of a particle, simultaneously at different frequencies in the optical domain. By exploiting the frequency dispersion of plasmonic materials and their inherent negative p…
Enhanced kinetics for hydrogen exchange in LiBH 4 incorporated within nanoporous carbon scaffolds are described. Dehydrogenation rates up to 50 times faster than those in the bulk material are measured at 300 °C in a nanostructured hydride formed by filling a porous carbon aerogel host with LiBH 4 . Furthermore, the a…
Plasmonic nanoparticle pairs known as "dimers" embody a simple system for generating intense nanoscale fields for surface enhanced spectroscopies and for developing an understanding of coupled plasmons. Individual nanoshell dimers in directly adjacent pairs and touching geometries show dramatically different plasmonic…
Solid state and solution evidence confirms the embedding of an adamantane-like, Ru4O6 fragment by the divacant, gamma-decatungstosilicate ligand. The resulting complex catalyzes water oxidation to oxygen with TON up to 500 and TOF > 450 h-1.
The α-, β-, γ-, and δ-MnO 2 nanorods were synthesized by the hydrothermal method. Their catalytic properties for CO oxidation were evaluated, and the effects of phase structures on the activities of the MnO 2 nanorods were investigated. The activities of the catalysts decreased in the order of α- ≈ δ- > γ- > β-MnO 2 .…
Single-stranded oligonucleotides stabilize highly fluorescent Ag nanoclusters, with emission colors tunable via DNA sequence. We utilized DNA microarrays to optimize these scaffold sequences for creating nearly spectrally pure Ag nanocluster fluorophores that are highly photostable and exhibit great buffer stability.…
