Various approaches for the synthesis of mesoporous silicate nanoparticles (MSN) with large pore (LP) diameters (in the range of 3-50 nm) are reviewed in this article. The work also covers the construction of magnetic analogues of large pore-mesoporous silica nanoparticles (LPMMSN) and their biomedical applications. Th…
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) metabolism has been traditionally considered as a futile cycle involved in carbon and energy storage. The use of cutting-edge technologies linked to systems biology has improved our understanding of the interaction between bacterial physiology, PHA metabolism and other cell functions in mode…
Hexagonal boron nitride (BN) is widely used as a substrate and gate insulator for two-dimensional (2D) electronic devices. The studies on insulating properties and electrical reliability of BN itself, however, are quite limited. Here, we report a systematic investigation of the dielectric breakdown characteristics of…
It is a dream that future synthetic chemistry can mimic living systems to process multistep cascade reactions in a one-pot fashion. One of the key challenges is the mutual destruction of incompatible or opposing reagents, for example, acid and base, oxidants and reductants. A conceptually novel strategy is developed h…
Multifunctional molecular ferroelectrics are exciting materials synthesized using molecular chemistry concepts, which may combine a spontaneous electrical polarization, switched upon applying an electric field, with another physical property. A high-temperature ferroelectric material is presented that is based on a ch…
Nanoscience emerged in the late 1980s and is developed and applied in China since the middle of the 1990s. Although nanotechnologies have been less developed in agronomy than other disciplines, due to less investment, nanotechnologies have the potential to improve agricultural production. Here, we review more than 200…
We report on how the transition from the bulk structure to the cluster-specific structure occurs in n-dodecanethiolate-protected gold clusters, Au(n)(SC12)m. To elucidate this transition, we isolated a series of Au(n)(SC12)m in the n range from 38 to ∼520, containing five newly identified or newly isolated clusters, A…
The completion of a crystal structure determination is often hampered by the presence of embedded solvent molecules or ions that are seriously disordered. Their contribution to the calculated structure factors in the least-squares refinement of a crystal structure has to be included in some way. Traditionally, an atom…
The improvements in the crystal structure refinement program SHELXL have been closely coupled with the development and increasing importance of the CIF (Crystallographic Information Framework) format for validating and archiving crystal structures. An important simplification is that now only one file in CIF format (f…
Transport and photoresponse properties of the heterostructure consisting of a Pr 0.5 Ca 0.5 CoO 3 film and a Nb-SrTiO 3 substrate were investigated. The Pr 0.5 Ca 0.5 CoO 3 film exhibits semiconducting behavior and the resistances are decreased when irradiated by a 532 nm laser. The rectifying behaviors are observed i…
ABSTRACT Phase separation of block copolymer films is a perspective technique for the creation of nanostructured templates. The phase separation can be induced by thermal or vapor solvent annealing. However, a standardized and reproducible technique of the phase separation is still missing, even though many papers des…
We developed an analytical theory for the many-body potential of mean force (POMF) between N spheres immersed in a continuum chain fluid. The theory is almost exact for a Θ polymer solution in the protein limit (small particles, long polymers), where N-body effects are important. Polydispersity in polymer length accor…
Anomalous transformations of conductivity, photoconductivity and photovoltaic response were discovered in TlGaSe2 crystals after its treatment within an external electric field. To investigate the effect samples were cooled from room temperature down to ~80 K under the external electric field. After the cooling proces…
Ethylene‐vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH)/exfoliated graphite (EFG) nanocomposite films were prepared by precoating EFG on the EVOH surface and conducting a successive melt‐extrusion process. Their physical properties were strongly dependent on the EFG content and the mixing method, which strongly affected the morpholog…
The use of superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) is now emerging as an attractive platform for the realization of one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures with potential applications in many nanotechnological and biotechnological fields. To this purpose, a strict control of the nanostructures size and their spatial arrangement…
Objective: Nanotechnology opens new applications in many fields including medicine, material science and various technologies. The aim of the current study is to synthesise nanoparticles of Brassica oleraceae by green chemistry approach which provides advancement over physical and chemical methods. Methods: Silver nan…
One of the intriguing potentials of metamaterials is the possibility to realize a nonlocal electromagnetic reaction, such that the effective medium response at a given point is fundamentally entangled with the macroscopic field distribution at long distances. Here, it is experimentally and numerically verified that a…
The electrostrain behavior through reversible domain switching in aged acceptor-doped ferroelectric ceramics has been widely investigated in the past decade. However, previous works were focused on unpoled ceramics, which could only utilize part of domains to exchange nonequal crystalline axis to generate strain under…
The dispersibility and liquid crystal formation of a self-assembled lipid nanotube (LNT) was investigated in a variety of aqueous solutions. As the lipid component, we chose a bipolar lipid with glucose and tetraglycine headgroups, which self-assembled into an LNT with a small outer diameter of 16 to 17 nm and a high…
