Water-soluble phthalocyanines are promising photosensitizers for application in cancer therapy and in the photoinactivation of viruses. The water-soluble zinc(II) phthalocyanines 5 and 6 were synthesized by converting the corresponding ester derivative 4 into the sodium carboxylate and carboxylic acid species. Compoun…
Optical transitions in single-wall boron nitride nanotubes are investigated by means of optical absorption spectroscopy. Three absorption lines are observed. Two of them (at 4.45 and 5.5 eV) result from the quantification involved by the rolling up of the hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) sheet. The nature of these lines…
A bolaform Schiff base, N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-1,10-decanediamine (BSC10), has been synthesized and its interfacial hydrogen bond formation or molecular recognition with barbituric acid was investigated in comparison with that of a single chain Schiff base, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde-octadecylamine (HBOA). It has been foun…
Abstract The chemical phase content, crystal structure, and magnetization for the doped anion‐deficient La 1– x Sr x MnO 3– x /2 ( x = 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30) manganites have been studied. The samples undergo the structural phase transition from the O′‐orthorhombic to the rhombohedric unit cell at x > 0.10. As d…
The dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulation method is applied to study the mesoscopic phase formation of cyclic diblock copolymer c-A m B n ( m + n = 20). The phase diagram is constructed by simulating at different interaction parameters and composition fractions. The resulted phase diagram is similar to that o…
This paper reports a DSC and FTIR study of blends of poly( l -lactide) (PLLA) with poly(vinylphenol) (PVPh). According to the single T g criterion, miscibility has been found in all the compositions range for the blends obtained by solution/precipitation in a dioxane/hexane pair. However, phase separation has been obs…
Biomedical devices and modified biomaterial surfaces constitute an expanding research domain in the dental field. However, such oral applications have to face a very particular environment containing specific physiological conditions and specific enzymes. To evaluate their suitability in the development of novel oral…
Density-functional theory calculations have been carried out in order to study the structural, electronic, and optical properties of oxidized silicon clusters and silicon nanocrystals embedded in $\mathrm{Si}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$. For the isolated clusters, different $\mathrm{Si}∕\mathrm{O}$ bonding geometries and various…
Abstract Ab initio calculations have been performed on the structural and electronic properties of perovskite‐type compounds BaZrO 3 and SrZrO 3 ceramics. The Kohn–Sham equations were solved by applying the full‐potential linearized augmented‐plane‐wave (FP‐LAPW) method. In this approach, the generalized gradient appr…
Light alkali metals have usually been considered as simple metals due to their monovalency and high conductivity. In these metals ionic pseudopotentials are weak and the nearly free electron model (NFE) becomes quite accurate at normal conditions. However, very recent experiments have shown that at high pressures thei…
Ab-initio simulations of quantum transport commonly focus on a central region which is considered to be connected to infinite, periodic leads through which the current flows. The electronic structure of these distant leads is normally obtained from an equilibrium calculation, ignoring the self-consistent response of t…
The crystal and magnetic structure of ${\mathrm{La}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{1+x}\mathrm{Mn}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ $(0\ensuremath{\leqslant}x\ensuremath{\leqslant}0.6)$ has been studied by diffraction techniques and high resolution capacitance dilatometry. There is no evidence for a structural phase transition rel…
We study competition between different phases in a strongly correlated nano-structure with an edge. Making use of the self-consistent Green's function and density matrix renormalization group methods, we study a system described by the t-Jz and t-J models on a strip of a square lattice with a linear hole density n_||.…
As is well known the absorption of circularly polarized light in semiconductors results in optical orientation of electron spins and helicity-dependent electric photocurrent, and the absorption of linearly polarized light is accompanied by optical alignment of electron momenta. Here we show that the absorption of unpo…
A Cu2N2 diamond core structure, {(PNP)CuI}2 (2), supported by a [PNP]- ligand (1) ([PNP]- = bis(2-(diisobutylphosphino)phenyl)amide) has been prepared. 2 is highly emissive at ambient temperature in both the solid and solution states and is characterized by a relatively long-lived excited state (tau > 10 mus) and an u…
Subnanometer Pd clusters stabilized within micelles of random copolymers were formed by direct immobilization of Pd(0) via ligand exchange. The clusters were estimated to contain approximately seven Pd atoms on average (cluster diameter approximately 0.7 nm). Several Pd-containing micelle morphologies could be obtaine…
Abstract The coupling efficiency of seven coupling agents in wood–polymer composites (WPC) was investigated in this study. The improvement on the interfacial bonding strength, flexural modulus, and other mechanical properties of the resultant wood fiber/high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) composites was mainly related to…
Metal membranes play a vital role in hydrogen purification. Defect-free membranes can exhibit effectively infinite selectivity but must also provide high fluxes, resistance to poisoning, long operational lifetimes, and low cost. Alloying offers one route to improve on membranes based on pure metals such as palladium.…
We investigate the magnetic properties of epitaxial GaN:Gd layers as a function of the external magnetic field and temperature. An unprecedented magnetic moment is observed in this diluted magnetic semiconductor. The average value of the moment per Gd atom is found to be as high as $4000\text{ }\text{ }{\ensuremath{\m…
Research on fluorescent semiconductor nanocrystals (also known as quantum dots or qdots) has evolved over the past two decades from electronic materials science to biological applications. We review current approaches to the synthesis, solubilization, and functionalization of qdots and their applications to cell and a…
