In surfactant-induced, pseudomorphic transformations of submicrometer-sized nonporous spheres to mesoporous silica spheres, the surface morphologies of the products depend on the solvent used during the initial Stöber synthesis. After hydrothermal transformations employing cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a su…

Dilatometry experiments on low- and high-density amorphous ices up to 0.30 GPa are presented together with powder x-ray diffraction data. Repeated isobaric heating and cooling cycles reveal three competing processes: irreversible (micro)structural relaxation, reversible relaxation, and (irreversible) crystallization.…

We present an inherently reproducible route to realizing high-performance SERS substrates by exploiting a high-throughput top-down/bottom-up fabrication scheme. The fabrication route employs self-assembly of amphiphilic copolymers to create high-resolution molds for nanoimprint lithography (NIL) spanning entire 100 mm…

The solubility equilibrium of clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate (Form I) was set up without the nucleation of Form II, as the nucleation rate of Form II is very slow under the low supersaturation. Using the laser monitoring technique, solubilities of clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate (Form I) in ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol,…

Graphene wires have been fabricated from large-area multilayer graphene sheets grown by chemical vapor deposition. As the methane concentration increases, a larger percentage of thicker graphene layers are grown. The multilayer graphene sheets have an average thickness of 10-20 nm with sheet resistances between 500 an…
