Sol-gel-driven ZnGa2O4:Mn2+ phosphors are annealed at various temperatures. As an increase of the annealing temperature of as-grown ZnGa2O4:Mn2+ phosphors, their lattice constants and crystallinities are increased. The resonance signal intensity of Mn2+ ions on Td sites is drastically increased whereas that of Mn2+ io…
Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers of different generations with various terminal groups were analyzed, for the first time, using a combination of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), size exclusion chromatography (SEC), and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) techniques. Se…
Forming an orderly line: Au nanoparticles can be aligned in one dimension by their incorporation into the helical structure of a natural polysaccharide, schizophyllan (s-SPG, see picture). The hydrophobic inner cavity of the helix hosts the hydrophobic nanoparticles and aligns the guests along its length (≈200 nm).
This work describes the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOD) in mesostructured silica. The enzyme is incorporated into the silica framework via a direct one-step immobilization method. Results obtained by SAXS and nitrogen adsorption−desorption analysis clearly show that the channel arrangement of the recovered mat…
Unidirectional energy transfer is achieved in bilayers of CdTe nanocrystals of two different sizes produced by electrostatic assembly of oppositely charged particles without the need for an intermediate linker. Within these planar structures with reduced inter-layer distance, transfer rates up to (50 ps)−1 are demonst…
The optical properties of Ba2TiSi2O8 nanocrystals in transparent crystallized glasses were investigated. The transparent nanocrystallized glass with Ba2TiSi2O8 crystals having a particle size of ∼200nm was fabricated by crystallization (at 760 °C for 1 h) of a glass with the stoichiometric composition of Ba2TiSi2O8, i…
A dynamic coordinative-directed solubilization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in aqueous solutions has been achieved through a combination of a Zn(II) metalloporphyrin complex and a cis-protected Pd(II) complex, which are believed to form charged acyclic and/or cyclic adducts on or around the side walls of…
Despite all prophecies of its end, silicon-based microelectronics still follows Moore's Law and continues to develop rapidly. However, the inherent physical limits will eventually be reached. Carbon nanotubes offer the potential for further miniaturization as long as it is possible to selectively deposit them with def…
Ordered organic functionalized mesoporous silica containing covalently bonded diphenylphosphinoethyl ligands was synthesized using a surfactant-templating approach. Briefly, hydrolysis and condensation reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 2-(diphenylphosphino)ethyl triethoxysilane (PPETS) in an acidic cond…
Polyphosphazene polyelectrolytes are potent immunostimulants. Their in vivo performance has been demonstrated for various antigens in a number of animal models. To improve understanding of the mechanism of action, we performed a comparative study in a model system: bovine serum albumin, BSA-poly[di(carboxylatophenoxy)…
Graphitic carbon nanotubes that comprise graphene layers aligned perpendicular to the tube axis (see image; arrow indicates tube axis) were obtained by stepwise carbonization of preorganized disclike molecules in a porous alumina template. The alignment, size, wall thickness, and shape of the tubes were all controlled…
Pickering emulsions are used as a template to investigate the multiphase interactions and self-assembled structure of nanoparticles at a trichloroethylene-water interface. The dodecanethiol-capped silver nanoparticles of 1-5 nm form randomly distributed multilayers at the liquid/liquid interface, with an interparticle…
Anodized alumina membranes (AAMs) were synthesized by a three-step electrochemical anodization of aluminum. The anodization results in a hexagonally pseudo-ordered 2D array of nanochannels. The AAMs were used as templates to grow Ni, Co, and Fe nanowires, with diameters in the range of 250−300 nm, by electrodeposition…
A single crystal of Cs(I)2Cu(II)7[Mo(IV)CN8]4.6H2O was electrochemically prepared on a Pt wire electrode with a constant potential of +500 mV vs Ag/AgCl electrode. X-ray single-crystal structural analysis showed that this compound consists of a three-dimensional cyano-bridged Cu-Mo bimetallic assembly with a tetragona…
The preparation of a series of multidentate pyridyl-imine ligands, L1-L3, and their reactivity with the Mn(II)/N3- system is described (L1 = [N,N-bis(pyridine-2-yl)benzylidene]ethane-1,2-diamine; L2 = [N,N-bis(pyridine-2-yl)benzylidene]propane-1,3-diamine, and L3 = [N,N-bis(pyridine-2-yl)benzylidene]butane-1,4-diamine…
The photoluminescence (PL) property of crystalline silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) in silicon nitride grown by using ammonia and silane gases is reported. The peak position of PL could be controlled in the wavelength range from 450 to 700 nm by adjusting the flow rates of ammonia and silane gases. The PL intensity of Si…
We have used 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction to study the magnetic and vibrational properties of FeAl2. FeAl2 is an ordered intermetallic with a large Fe local moment, and a complex crystal structure with site-occupation disorder on some sites. This material exhibits spin-glass freezing below 35 K. F…
The polarization switching kinetics of epitaxial Pb(Zr0.4Ti0.6)O3 thin films were investigated by measuring write pulse-width dependences of switched polarization ΔP(t) under various applied electric fields. It was found that ΔP(t) follows the predictions of the Kolmogorov–Avrami–Ishibashi model quite well. However, t…
Photoelectron spectroscopy has been used to study the products resulting from high temperature phase transformation of nanodiamonds (ND). Depending on the temperature of annealing various particles with a diamond core covered by nanometer sized fullerene-like shells, and onionlike carbon (OLC) were formed. Analysis of…
In this letter we present a calculation of the temperature-pressure phase diagram of Si in a range of pressures covering from -5 to 20 GPa and temperatures up to the melting point. The phase boundaries and triple points between the diamond, liquid, $β$-Sn and ${Si}_{34}$ clathrate phases are reported. We have employed…
