The electrons in undoped graphene behave as massless Dirac fermions. Therefore, graphene can serve as a unique condensed-matter laboratory for the study of various relativistic effects, including quantum electrodynamics (QED) phenomena. Although theoretical models describing electronic properties of graphene have been…

In the past three decades, the use of polymeric materials has increased dramatically for biomedical applications. Many α-amino acids derived biodegradable polymers have also been intensely developed with the main goal to obtain bio-mimicking functional biomaterials. Polymers derived from α-amino acids may offer many a…

Surface faceting on sidewalls is ubiquitously observed during crystal growth of semiconductor nanowires. However, predicting the thermal transport characteristics of faceted nanowires relevant to thermoelectric applications remains challenging. Here, direct molecular dynamics simulations show that thermal conductivity…

The effect of solvent permittivity on the fibre morphology of PCL electrospun membranes for tissue engineering applications is studied. Morphological results indicate that polar solvents with higher permittivity are able to promote the formation of sub-micrometric fibres, while apolar solvents yield microfibres with a…

Mit Diarylbibenzofuranon-Einheiten quervernetzte Polymere wurden durch Polyaddition synthetisiert. Der Bindungsaustausch der Gele und ihre makroskopische Selbstheilung wurden an Luft bei Raumtemperatur im Dunkeln erreicht. Die makroskopische Verbindung komplett getrennter Teile war erfolgreich (siehe Bild).

Nanoscale complexes of recombinant silk molecules containing THPs with DNA are designed as less cytotoxic and highly target-specific gene carriers. Genetically engineered silk proteins containing poly(L-lysine) domains to interact with pDNA and the THP to bind to specific tumorigenic cells for target-specific pDNA del…

We demonstrated the fabrication of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) as narrow as 35 nm created using scanning probe lithography to deposit a polymer mask(1-3) and then fluorinating the sample to isolate the masked graphene from the surrounding wide band gap fluorographene. The polymer protected the GNR from atmospheric ads…

Cluster formation and gelation are studied in a colloidal model system with competing short-range attractions and long-range repulsions. In contrast to predictions by equilibrium theory, the size of clusters spontaneously formed at low colloidal volume fractions decreases with increasing strength of the short-range at…

The role of 5-fold twin boundary on the structural and mechanical properties of fcc Fe nanowire under tension is explored by classical molecular dynamics. Twin-stabilized fcc nanowire with various diameters (6-24 nm) are examined by tension tests at several temperatures ranging from 0.01 to 1100 K. Significant increas…

A simple and one-pot method for the synthesis of water-soluble, red-emitting, highly fluorescent gold nanoparticles has been reported using 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid (11-MUA) as the protecting group. We found that the fluorescent gold nanoparticles could selectively detect copper ions in aqueous solution, with a limi…
