A two-dimensional chiral structure with an h-shape and H-shape on opposing sides of a dielectric layer is proposed that can realize simultaneously dual-band asymmetric transmission of linearly and circularly polarized waves in the near-infrared band. Meanwhile, the structure realizes a maximum asymmetric transmission…

We investigate support effects on the CO oxidation reaction on graphene–supported Pt 13 nanoclusters using first-principles density functional theory calculations. As CO adsorption on Pt 13 clusters is found to be substantially stronger than O adsorption, we focus on understanding CO oxidation kinetics on CO-saturated…

ABSTRACT We report here a simple strategy for fabricating asymmetrically superhydrophobic cotton fabric via a mist copolymerization of three monomers, 2,2,2‐trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFMA), 2‐isocyanatoethyl methacrylate (IEM), and divinylbenzene (DVB). The copolymer layer on the cotton surface was confirmed by X‐r…

Polysiloxanes are the most studied inorganic and semi-inorganic polymers because of their many medical and commercial uses. The Si-O backbone endows polysiloxanes with intriguing properties: the strength of the Si-O bond imparts considerable thermal stability, and the nature of the bonding imparts low surface free ene…

ABSTRACT In this article, we report on the process for creating microcellular and nanocellular polysulfone (PSU) foams. Microcellular foams with cell size up to 8 µm and nanocellular foams with cell size in the range of 20–30 nm were created. A range of CO 2 concentration was achieved by varying saturation temperature…

In this Letter, we disclose a fast switchable Fresnel zone lens (FZL) by confining the ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLCs) in multiple microscopically defined photo-aligned alignment domains. The photo-alignment (PA) offers good control on the anchoring energy (W) by mean of irradiation doses (ID) and thus excellent…

Long lifetimes of hot carriers can lead to qualitatively new types of responses in materials. The magnitude and time scales for these responses reflect the mechanisms governing energy flows. We examine the microscopics of two processes which are key for energy transport, focusing on the unusual behavior arising due to…

We use first-principles density functional theory to investigate the effect of both tensile and compressive strain on the work functions of various metal dichalcogenide monolayers. We find that for all six species considered, including MoS2, WS2, SnS2, VS2, MoSe2 and MoTe2, that compressive strain of up to 10% decreas…

Graphene-enhanced Raman scattering (GERS) spectra and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) of thymine molecules adsorbed on a single-layer graphene were studied. The enhancement factor was shown to depend on the molecular groups of thymine. In the GERS spectra of thymine, the main bands are shifted with respec…

Brain tumor is one of the most challenging diseases to treat. The major obstacle in the specific drug delivery to brain is blood-brain barrier (BBB). Mostly available anti-cancer drugs are large hydrophobic molecules which have limited permeability via BBB. Therefore, it is clear that the protective barriers confining…
