Electro-redox-induced heterogeneous fluorescence of an individual single-layer graphene sheet was observed in real time by a total internal reflection fluorescence microscope. It was found that the fluorescence intensity of an individual sheet can be tuned reversibly by applying periodic voltages to control the redox…

Cubosomes are self-assembled nanostructures that often form on dispersion of polar lipids in aqueous environments. The nanoparticles are analogous to liposomes but contain a complex internal self-assembled structure providing a point of difference to relatively simple liposomes. They exhibit a range of attractive prop…

We show that the interaction of an oil-dispersed colloidal particle with an oil-water interface is highly tunable from attractive to repulsive, either by varying the sign of the colloidal charge via charge regulation or by varying the difference in hydrophilicity between the dissolved cations and anions. In addition,…

The biomineralization of calcium carbonate is masterfully directed by organic macromolecules present in many organisms. In this biomimetic study, absorbance measurements accompanied by microscopy and infrared spectroscopy are used to evaluate the superposed effect of organic additives and surface chemistries on the ki…

ABSTRACT: mbar pressure range was studied in situ on individual high-Miller-index domains of a polycrystalline Rh foil by PEEM (photoemission electron microscopy) and on a Rh nanotip by FIM/FEM (field-ion/field-emission microscopy). The activity, particularly the tolerance to poisoning by oxygen, was found to strongly…

The transformation of an inert structure into a catalytically active conformation has immense potential from a structural engineering point of view. In the present work, we explored methods of achieving such a transformation through a density-functional-based study. Au 20 is known be one of the most stable and catalyt…

The properties of hydrophilic shell in micelles significantly affect the interaction between micelles and cells. Compared with frequently used polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the hydrophilic block, polyphosphoesters (PPEs) are superior in functionality, biocompatibility, and degradability.

BACKGROUND: Capecitabine, an anti cancer drug, has a very short drug elimination half-life (0.49 to 0.89 h). High doses and absence of targeting ability in the colon region may lead to more side effects to the patients with colon cancer. PURPOSE: To develop and optimize sustained release nanoparticles for effective tr…

Endless rayon fibres (Cordenka®) were used to reinforce polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) nanocomposites containing 2.5 wt.% nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) to create truly green hierarchical composites. Unidirectional (UD) composites with 50–55% fibre volume fraction were produced using a solvent-free continuous wet powder i…

Pennate diatoms are important contributors to primary production in freshwater and marine habitats. But the extent of their diversity, ecology, and evolution is still largely unknown. This is particularly evident among the clades of pennate diatoms without raphe slits, whose diversity is likely underestimated due to t…

The multifunctional (ferromagnetic and ferroelectric) response at room temperature that is elusive in single phase multiferroic materials can be achieved in a proper combination of ferroelectric perovskites and ferrimagnetic spinel oxides in horizontal heterostructures. In this work, lead-free CoFe2O4/BaTiO3 bilayers…

The mechanical properties of colloidal nanocrystal superlattices can be tailored through exposure to low-pressure plasma. The elastic modulus and hardness of the ligand-free 3.7 nm ZrO2 superlattice are found to be similar to bulk yttria-stabilized tetragonal polycrystals of the same relative density but without any d…

Abstract Recently, it has been shown that the superatom concept is intimately connected to relevant tools of great chemical significance, such as the Lewis structure model and the VSEPR theory, which has been employed to understand hybridized and dimeric‐like molecules. This suggests a potential rational construction…
