The ability to provide large electric field enhancements renders triangular nanoprisms and branched nanoparticles very attractive for applications in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Theoretical studies on the optical properties of triangular prisms in a water solution are presented in this paper to determi…
An on/off SERS aggregation system has been designed to investigate carbohydrate-lectin interactions. Detection of the lectin ConA was achieved at pico molar levels. Discrimination was also demonstrated between two different carbohydrate moieties demonstrating the specific interaction between the carbohydrate and speci…
Nanoporous antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO) coatings with high surface area, optical transparency and electron transfer properties have been prepared using an interpenetrating inorganic–organic hybrid sol–gel approach. UV-Vis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies were carried out on the prepared materials in add…
Columnar stacks of N, N ′-di(2-(trimethylammoniumiodide)ethylene) perylenediimide (TAIPDI) n can host meso -tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin zinc tetrapotassium salt (ZnTPPSK 4 ) molecules at different ratios through the ionic and π–π interactions prompted by an aqueous environment. Photoexcitation of this host–gu…
The calculation results show that the bonding energy and electronic states of silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) are different on various curved surfaces (CS), for example, a Si-O-Si bridge bond on curved surface provides the localized levels in band gap and its bonding energy is shallower than that on facet. Curved surfac…
Blends of polypropylene (PP) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with and without ethylene-propylene-diene (EPDM) terpolymer as a compatibilizer were studied. Mechanical properties were chosen to estimate the compatibilization efficiency of EPDM. The interactions between phases were valued through glass transition shi…
Abstract In this study, we investigated the potential antibacterial properties of nanocrystalline diamond. In particular, we tested the effect of diamond nanoparticles (DNPs) on growth of the model gram‐negative bacterium Escherichia coli on solid, nutrient‐rich growth medium. We found that the presence of DNPs on aga…
The coupling and reconstruction of electronic degrees of freedom (such as charge, spin and orbital) at a heterointerface can lead to unexpected and exotic states of matter. In this study, using model systems consisting of multiferroic BiFeO(3) and ferromagnetic La(0.7)Sr(0.3)MnO(3), we review the current understanding…
Natural oils have been used in the production of plastics for a long time. However, the number of studies dedicated to polyurethane research has shown an increase only recently. Usually, petrochemical components are used in polyurethane synthesis. Nowadays, there have been attempts made to replace polyols in polyureth…
We have derived and implemented analytical gradients for broken-symmetry unrestricted density functional calculations (BS-UDFT) with removal of spin contamination by Yamaguchi's approximate spin projection method. Geometry optimizations with these analytical gradients (AGAP-opt) yield results consistent with those obt…
By dispersing aqueous precipitant in liquid paraffin to prepare a W/O emulsion then adding chitosan (CS) solution, CS microcapsules have been successfully prepared. It is a facile way to prepare polymer microcapsules by using aqueous precipitant or nonsolvent as template, which avoids the removal of template and would…
We report the occurrence of superconductivity, with maximum T${}_{c}=40$ K, in superlattices (SLs) based on two insulating oxides, namely CaCuO${}_{2}$ and SrTiO${}_{3}$. In these (CaCuO${}_{2}$)${}_{n}$/(SrTiO${}_{3}$)${}_{m}$ SLs, the CuO${}_{2}$ planes belong only to CaCuO${}_{2}$ block, which is an antiferromagnet…
Ashworth M.P., Ruck E.C., Lobban C.S., Romanovicz D.K., and Theriot E.C. 2012. A revision of the genus Cyclophora and description of Astrosyne gen. nov. (Bacillariophyta), two genera with the pyrenoids contained within pseudosepta. Phycologia 51: 684–699. DOI: 10.2216/12-004.1The araphid pennate diatom genus Cyclophor…
Ian Murdoch's Physical Foundations of Continuum Mechanics will interest engineers, mathematicians, and physicists who study the macroscopic behaviour of solids and fluids or engage in molecular dynamical simulations. In contrast to standard works on the subject, Murdoch's book examines physical assumptions implicit in…
Conducting polymers-based gas sensors have attracted increasing research attention these years. The introduction of inorganic sensitizers (noble metals or inorganic semiconductors) within the conducting polymers-based gas sensors has been regarded as the generally effective route for further enhanced sensors. Here we…
Water permeation is an important issue in both fundamental research and industrial applications. In this work, we report a novel strategy to realize the controllable water permeation on the mixed thiol (containing both alkyl and carboxylic acid groups) modified nanostructured copper mesh films. For acidic and neutral…
Abstract NiX 2 @SWCNT (X = Cl, Br) nanostructures were prepared by capillary filling of single‐walled carbon nanotube channels with nickel halogenide melts with slow cooling down to room temperature for better crystallization. The HRTEM data indicated formation of well‐ordered 1D NiBr 2 crystals, with the experimental…
The aim of this study was to evaluate the regenerative capacity of a newly developed nerve guidance conduit using electrospun silk fibroin (SFNC) implanted in a 10-mm defect of the sciatic nerve in rats. After evaluating the physical properties and cytocompatibility of SFNC in vitro, rats were randomly allocated into…
In this study, we present the novel isocyanate microcapsule preparation of poly(urea-formaldehyde) (PUF) embedded with oxygen plasma treated carbon nanotubes (OPCNTs) to improve the micromechanical behavior of microcapsule shells significantly. Isophorone diisocyanate was encapsulated by PUF through in situ polymeriza…
The Schiff base compound (E)-N-{2-[(2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino]phenyl}benzenesulfonamide has been synthesized and characterized by IR, NMR and Uv-vis spectroscopies, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique. In addition, quantum chemical calculations employing density functional theory (DFT) method with the 6–31…
