Abstract Collagen–chitosan scaffolds of different compositions were developed using emulsion air‐drying method. The scaffolds prepared adding 10–30 wt% of chitosan to collagen improved the mechanical properties of the composite scaffold, and 7:3 ratio (collagen :chitosan) was found to be a better composite having a te…

RATIONALE: Due to the low resistance of forms of pesticides to environmental conditions, agrochemicals frequently do not reach their objective, which may cause environmental pollution. The minimisation of the adverse effects of pesticides requires the development of a system for their long-term controlled release. In…

CdTe and CdTe/CdS quantum dots (QDs) were prepared in aqueous solutions using thioglycolic acid as a stabilizing agent. The photoluminescence (PL) wavelength of the QDs depended strongly on the size of CdTe cores and the thickness of CdS shells. Being kept at room temperature for 130 days, the PL wavelength of CdTe an…

Thin absorber defects called residual-type defects are etching residues that tend to become more discernible as the pattern size of the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) mask shrinks. Projection electron microscope (PEM) images of the residual-type defects with various thicknesses were investigated using Monte Carlo simulatio…

A fabrication method is developed for superhydrophilic surfaces with high capillary pressure and fast spreading speed. The fabrication method consists of electrophoretic deposition (EPD) and breakdown anodization (BDA). Nanopores and micropores were produced on titanium plates by EPD and BDA, respectively. In EPD, TiO…

Abstract It is demonstrated that magnesium and carbonate ions can form pre-nucleation clusters in analogy to calcium carbonate. If a mixed calcium and magnesium solution is brought in contact with carbonate ions, mixed pre-nucleation clusters form. The equilibrium constants for their formation are reported revealing t…

The ZnO films were deposited on GaN and with an interlayer of InGaN by atomic layer deposition. The orientation of the ZnO films was 〈0001〉 on InGaN, whereas it was 〈707¯4〉 (perpendicular to (101¯0) plane) on GaN. The lattice mismatch between ZnO and InGaN was about 0.3%, which is lower than that between ZnO and GaN (…
