An unprecedented guest-host redox strategy is developed to generate strong basicity on mesoporous silica, which breaks the tradition of thermally induced decomposition of precursors. New materials possessing ordered mesostructure, strong basicity, and excellent catalytic activity are thus successfully fabricated at a…

We correlate the localization of silver nanoparticles inside cells with respect to the cellular architecture with the molecular information in the vicinity of the particle surface by combining nanoscale 3D cryo-soft X-ray tomography (cryo-SXT) with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The interaction of the silve…

Understanding of the influence of nanotextured surface topographies on surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is still rather limited, even after intensive research in recent years; this is mainly due to the absence of a synthesis system to control the surface morphologies on metal meso-/nanoparticles. Here, a facil…

We report a self-assembled metallo suprapolymer gel exhibiting remarkable self-healing features. The Ni2BTC metallo suprapolymer gels result from the complexation of Ni(2+) metal ions by a tritopic ligand (bis-terpyridine cyclam) in dimethylformamide (DMF) and an annealing step at 50 °C for 24 hours. The self-healing…

A commercial aluminum alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformation through equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). The alloy contains a low volume fraction of α -AlFeSi located essentially at the grain boundaries. The corrosion behavior of the ECAP’ed alloy was investigated in NaCl solution using potentiodynamic p…

Abstract. Controlling the growth of zinc oxide nanowires is necessary to optimize the performances of nanowire-based devices such as photovoltaic solar cells, nano-generators, or light-emitting diodes. In this view, we investigate the nucleation and growth mechanisms of ZnO nanowires grown by metalorganic vapor phase…

This paper reports facile and cost effective methods for fabricating MoS 2 nanosheets and for assembling layered MoS 2 -graphene nanocomposites. The MoS 2 nanosheets were obtained by ultrasonicating commercial MoS 2 powder in N-methyl-pyrrolidinone (NMP). The MoS 2 -graphene nanocomposites were assembled by the vacuum…

A number of cyclic peptides including [FR]4, [FK]4, [WK]5, [CR]4, [AK]4, and [WR]n (n = 3–5) containing L-amino acids were produced using solid-phase peptide synthesis. We hypothesized that an optimal balance of hydrophobicity and charge could generate self-assembled nanostructures in aqueous solution by intramolecula…

We synthesized uniform crimped microfibers with controlled dimensions using a microfluidic approach, whereby a liquid jet flows from a narrow channel into a wider channel. The liquid jet, sheathed by an immiscible non-reacting liquid, undergoes ultraviolet (UV)-initiated gelation upstream of the channel widening. At t…
