Sensors based upon surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) are attractive because they have narrow, vibrationally specific spectral peaks that can be excited using red and near-infrared light which avoids photobleaching, penetrates tissue, and reduces autofluorescence. Several groups have fabricated pH nanosensors…
When the rare earth mononitrides (RENs) first burst onto the scientific scene in the middle of last century, there were feverish dreams that their strong magnetic moment would afford a wide range of applications. For decades research was frustrated by poor stoichiometry and the ready reaction of the materials in ambie…
We report the synthesis efficiency of few-layer graphene (FLG) in an external magnetic field modulated DC carbon arc in different non-reactive buffer gases. The effects of buffer gases on the anode erosion rate and the cathode deposit (CD) formation rate have been investigated during the synthesis of FLG. The constitu…
GaFeO3, AlFeO3 and related oxides are ferrimagnetic exhibiting magnetodielectric effect. There has been no evidence to date for ferroelectricity and hence multiferroicity in these oxides. We have investigated these oxides as well as oxides of the composition Al1-x-yGaxFe1+yO3 (x = 0.2, y = 0.2) for possible ferroelect…
Description Seventeen peer-reviewed papers focus on the latest research on the effects of radiation on nuclear materials. These papers focus on: Light Water Reactor Sustainability Issues and Programs that address the multiple challenges of extended reactor life, including detailed coverage of irradiation embrittlement…
Description Twenty-two peer-reviewed papers cover the latest information on the performance of protective clothing for government and industrial workers, first responders, and civilians. Topics cover
Abstract To develop a rubber composite with excellent electrical properties, a sort of synthetic rubber, acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) with CN dipoles as matrix, multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as filler, was synthesized. NBR composites reinforced with 0.5, 1.5, 3, 10, and 20 phr MWCNT contents were fab…
As-cast Ti-xGe (x = 2, 5, 10, 20 wt %) binary alloys were produced in this work, and various experiments were carried out to investigate the microstructure, mechanical properties, in vitro electrochemical and immersion corrosion behaviors as well as cytotoxicity with as-cast pure Ti as control, aiming to study the fea…
Abstract Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, a thermoplastic semicrystalline polymer, has been blended with barium titanate submicrometric particles (BaTiO 3 ) by means of high‐energy ball milling (HEBM) for obtaining composites in the form of films by hot pressing. Two different milling conditions have been considered:…
The "doping" of carbon nanotubes with heteroatoms is an established method of controlling their properties. However, variations in heteroatom concentration in multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) tend to produce nanotubes with different morphologies, and hence varying properties, within the same sample. Electron ener…
Abstract New polymer composites containing polyaniline‐carboxymethyl cellulose (PANI‐CMC) were prepared via the polymerization of aniline hydrochloride using different concentration (wt%) of sodium CMC using ammonium persulfate as an oxidant. The thermal stability and embedded crystallinity of the composites were inve…
Abstract The oriented carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/polylactic acid (PLA) composite fibers was prepared by the modified electrospinning technology, and characterized by Raman, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and thermogravimetric (TG)/differential scanning calo…
Abstract The nylon 6‐based composite materials containing untreated and surface‐treated TiO 2 particles with 3‐aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTEOS), as coupling agent were prepared by in situ anionic polymerization of ε‐caprolactam in the presence TiO 2 as a filler using the rotational molding technique. The thermal be…
Abstract Paper mill sludge (PMS) is a waste material from pulping. In this article it was used to replace part of a wood fiber (WF) filler to reinforce high‐density polyethylene (HDPE). The properties of the PMS/WF/HDPE composites were investigated. When half of WF was replaced with PMS, the bending strength and modul…
A strong ligand effect was observed for the aqueous-phase growth of ZnSe quantum dots (QDs) in the Ostwald ripening (OR) stage. The QDs were made by injecting Se monomer at room temperature followed by a ramp to 100 °C. The ramp produced a second, more gradual increase in the concentrations of both Zn and Se monomers…
DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) are emerging sets of fluorophores that are widely applicable because of high brightness, good photostability, and visible to near-infrared emissions tunable using the DNA sequence and length to change the NC size. We find that fluorescent Ag NCs can be size-selectively grown…
The effect of reaction temperature on the synthesis of graphitic thin film on nickel substrate was investigated in the range of 400°C to 1,000°C. Amorphous carbon (a-C) film was obtained at 400°C on nickel foils by chemical vapor deposition; hybrid films of multilayer graphene (MLG) and a-C were synthesized at a tempe…
Plasmonics and chirality in metal nanomaterials are intriguing and inspiring phenomena. Nanoscale chirality of metal nanomaterials has emerged as a hot topic in the past several years. Generally, most plasmon-induced circular dichroism (CD) responses of nanomaterials (> 10 nm) have been artificially created by modifyi…
Ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy was used to investigate the nature of photoinduced charge transfer processes taking place in ZnSe/CdS/Pt colloidal heteronanocrystals. These nanoparticles consist of a dot-in-a-rod semiconductor domain (ZnSe/CdS) coupled to a Pt tip. Together the three components are designe…
Low-field (6-110 mT) magnetic resonance of bismuth (Bi) donors in silicon has been observed by monitoring the change in photoconductivity induced by spin dependent recombination. The spectra at various resonance frequencies show signal intensity distributions drastically different from that observed in conventional el…
