We report on the modification of the thermoelectric properties of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxylthiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) thin films by means of a simple post treatment of the solid thin films realized by drop-coating. We show that the organic polar solvents, dimethyl sulfoxide and ethylene glycol as seco…

Polyoligosilsesquioxanes (POSS) are a large family of Si–O cage molecules that have diameters of 1–2 nm and can be viewed as perfectly monodisperse silica nanoparticles. POSS can be synthesized with a wide variety of functional ligands attached to their surfaces. Here we report the results of a comprehensive study of…

Abstract The chirality of a gold nanocluster can be generated from either an intrinsically chiral inorganic core or an achiral inorganic core in a chiral environment. The first structural determination of a gold nanocluster containing an intrinsic chiral inorganic core is reported. The chiral gold nanocluster [Au 20 (…

Diarylethenes (DAEs) have rarely been used in the design of photoresponsive supramolecular assemblies with a well-defined morphology transition owing to rather small structural changes upon photoisomerization. A supramolecular design based on the parallel conformation of DAEs enables the construction of photoresponsiv…

(1−x)(Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3-x(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (BZT-xBCT) Pb-free piezoceramic has been reported showing ultrahigh piezoelectric performance in its morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region. However, the crystal structure characteristic for the MPB composition of BZT-xBCT is still under debate—between single orthorhombic pha…

In this study, we report on multimodal temperature-responsive chymotrypsin-poly(sulfobetaine methacrylamide)-block-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (CT-pSBAm-block-pNIPAm) protein-polymer conjugates. Using polymer-based protein engineering (PBPE) with aqueous atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), we synthesized thre…

Investigations that probe defects one at a time offer a unique opportunity to observe properties and dynamics that are washed out of ensemble measurements. Here we present confocal fluorescence measurements of individual defects in Al-doped ZnO nanoparticles and undoped ZnO sputtered films that are excited with sub-ba…

In this work, we performed tight binding calculations of the electronic structure of III-V semiconductors compounds and their alloys based on the Extended Hückel Theory (EHT), where the Hückel parameters for the binary compounds were generated following a simulated annealing procedure. In particular, this article is f…

Ionic transport in conventional ionic solids is generally considered to proceed via independent diffusion events or "hops''. This assumption leads to well-known Arrhenius expressions for transport coefficients, and is equivalent to assuming diffusion is a Poisson process. Using molecular dynamics simulations of the lo…

We have performed a comparative study of resonance Raman scattering in transition-metal dichalcogenides 2H-MX2 semiconductors (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se) and single-layer MoS2. Raman spectra were collected using excitation wavelengths 633 nm (1.96 eV), 594 nm (2.09 eV), 532 nm (2.33 eV), 514 nm (2.41 eV), and 488 nm (2.54…

The discovery of novel properties, effects or microscopic mechanisms in modern materials science is often driven by the quest for combining, into a single compound, several functionalities: not only the juxtaposition of the latter functionalities, but especially their coupling, can open new horizons in basic condensed…

Far from resonance, the coupling of the G-band phonon to magnetoexcitons in single layer graphene displays kinks and splittings versus filling factor that are well described by Pauli blocking and unblocking of inter- and intra-Landau level transitions. We explore the nonresonant electron-phonon coupling by high-magnet…

In this paper, we present interesting results on the quantification of photodarkening (PD), photobleaching (PB) and transient PD (TPD) in a-Ge(x)As(35-x)Se65 thin films as a function of network rigidity. Composition dependent light-induced responses of these samples indicate that there exist two parallel competing mec…

CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ceramics are potential candidates for capacitor applications due to their large dielectric permittivity (e') values of up to 300 000. The underlying mechanism for the high e' is an internal barrier layer capacitor (IBLC) structure of insulating grain boundaries (GB) and conducting grain interiors (b…
