A strategy for the mild deprotection of alkyl-thiolated (6-mercaptohexanoic acid, MHA, and 3-mercaptopropanoic acid, MPA) gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) supported on hydroxyapatite (HAP) has been developed by employing a peroxide (tert-butyl hydroperoxide, TBHP, or hydrogen peroxide, H2O2) as an oxidant. The thiol ligands…
This paper describes the synthesis of Eu(III)-doped ZnB 2 O 4 (B = Al(III) or Ga(III)) nanospinels with Eu(III) concentrations varying between 1% and 15.6%. The synthesis was achieved through a microwave (MW) synthetic methodology producing 3 nm particles by the thermal decomposition of zinc undecylenate (UND) and a m…
A convenient reverse micellar one-pot reaction yields multifunctional silica nanoparticles, which can be tailored to effectively suppress non-specific adsorption and, at the same time, enable efficient specific covalent immobilization of proteins. Using two highly sensitive proteins, it is demonstrated that the new pa…
Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are promising candidates for infrared electroluminescent devices. To date, CQD-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have employed a CQD emission layer sandwiched between carrier transport layers built using organic materials and inorganic oxides. Herein, we report the infrared LEDs that use…
The inactivation of Escherichia coli and MS2 coliphage by Cu(II) is found to be significantly enhanced in the presence of hydroxylamine (HA). The addition of a small amount of HA (i.e., 5-20 μM) increased the inactivation efficacies of E. coli and MS2 coliphage by 5- to 100-fold, depending on the conditions. Dual effe…
Negative photoconductivity is observed in InAs nanowires (NWs) without a surface defective layer. The negative photoconductivity is strongly dependent on the wavelength and intensity of the light, and is also sensitive to the environmental atmosphere. Two kinds of mechanisms are discerned to work together. One is rela…
Due to a unique combination of electrical and thermal conductivity, mechanical stiffness, strength and elasticity, graphene became a rising star on the horizon of materials science. This two-dimensional material has found applications in many areas of science ranging from electronics to composites. Making use of diffe…
Abstract A simple method of one-step pulse plating was used in the fabrication of core-shell SiO 2 /Ag composite spheres. Structural characteristics and morphologies of the prepared SiO 2 /Ag composite spheres are characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and transmission electron micr…
Omniphobic surfaces are created by designing an array of overhanging microdisks on a polymer film through two steps of photolithography. Two distinct edges and the large height of the microdisks relative to their separation ensure the formation of an air mat under the microdisks, providing an omniphobic property. More…
Black phosphorus (BP) is a good candidate for studying strain effects on twodimensional (2D) materials beyond graphene and transition-metal dichalcogenides. This is because of its particular ability to sustain high strain and remarkably anisotropic mechanical properties resulting from its unique puckered structure. We…
Nanocellulose is a biogenerated and biorenewable organic material. Using a process based on 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO)/NaClO/NaBr system, a highly translucent and light-diffusive film consisting of many layers of nanocellulose fibers and wood pulp microfibers was made. The film demonstrates a combina…
A novel strategy has been adopted for the construction of a copolymer of benzene-benzylamine-1 (BBA-1), which is a porous organic polymer (POP) with a high BET surface area, through Friedel-Crafts alkylation of benzylamine and benzene by using formaldehyde dimethyl acetal as a cross-linker and anhydrous FeCl3 as a pro…
Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) are regarded as a class of promising materials for spintronic and ultrahigh-density storage devices. Tuning the magnetic dynamics of single-molecule magnets is a crucial challenge for chemists. Lanthanide ions are not only highly magnetically anisotropic but also highly sensitive to the…
The present work describes the synthesis of biobased polyesters using glycerol of different purities and sources with the aim of understanding how glycerol composition can influence the resulting structure and properties of biobased polyesters. Glycerol and succinic acid based polyesters were synthesized using crude a…
We demonstrate tuning of infrared Mie resonances by varying the carrier concentration in doped semiconductor antennas. We fabricate spherical silicon and germanium particles of varying sizes and doping concentrations. Single-particle infrared spectra reveal electric and magnetic dipole, quadrupole, and hexapole resona…
Heteroatom-doped graphitic frameworks have received great attention in energy research, since doping endows graphitic structures with a wide spectrum of properties, especially critical for electrochemical supercapacitors, which tend to complement or compete with the current lithium-ion battery technology/devices. This…
We describe the observed and quantitative signal intensity changes in the brain on baseline precontrast T1-weighted MRI data of a pediatric patient who received 35 MRI examinations with gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) between the ages of 8 and 20 years. The contrast agent this patient received belongs to a clas…
Magnesium being the lightest structural material, is being increasingly used in automotive industry but at elevated temperatures, alloys like AZ91D, AM60B, AM50A etc. exhibit poor creep resistance which hinders the powertrain applications. This article summarizes the various creep deformation mechanisms prevailing in…
The rapid clearance of circulating nanocarriers in blood during systemic drug delivery remains a challenging hurdle in cancer chemotherapy. Here, inspired by the unique features of bacterial pathogens, an original biodegradable polymer micellar system with a rod‐like shape similar to the morphology of bacterial pathog…
According to the recent high heat flux (HHF) qualification tests of ITER divertor target mock-ups and the preliminary design studies of DEMO divertor target, the performance of CuCrZr alloy, the baseline heat sink material for DEMO divertor, seems to only marginally cover the envisaged operation regime. The structural…
