Abstract Microdroplet deposition is a technology that spans applications from tissue engineering to microelectronics. Our new high-speed imaging measurements reveal how sequential linear deposition of overlapping droplets on flat uniform substrates leads to striking non-uniform morphologies for moderate contact angles…
We report an efficient and adaptable method for the microencapsulation of active ingredients by a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) shell material. The core–shell microcapsules were obtained by phase separation between the core component and the PDMS shell components after repartitioning of the common solvent THF between th…
We have developed new conditions that afford regioisomerically pure trans-A2B2-, A3B-, and trans-AB2C-porphyrins bearing aryl and arylethynyl substituents. The porphyrins were prepared by the acid-catalyzed condensation of dipyrromethanes with aldehydes followed by oxidation with p-chloranil or 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyan…
This study established that elongation of the π-system in a series of hypothetical triphenylamine dyes by the judicious placement either a fluorophenyl or benzothiadiazole group, or a combination of both groups, results in improved light harvesting efficiency in DSSCs.
Polyacrylic acid (PAA) modified NaYF4:Gd/Yb/Er upconversion nanorods (denoted as PAA-UCNRs) are demonstrated for tri-modal upconversion (UC) optical, computed X-ray tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The hydrophilic PAA-UCNRs were obtained from hydrophobic oleic acid (OA) capped UCNRs (denoted as O…
can be used to adjust the release performance. All the release behaviors fit the Higuchi model very well and the release kinetics are predominated by disulfide bond degradation and mesoporous structure. With good bioactivity and targeted release performance, the system could play an important role in the development o…
This paper proposes a two-step method for phosphogypsum (PG) decomposition by circulating various atmospheres instead of a single atmosphere. To achieve a high concentration of CaO in the final product, the PG was decomposed in reducing atmosphere with CO (99.99%) at rising temperature until the mass loss changes stab…
A novel sensing system has been designed for the detection of <italic>m</italic> -phenylenediamine based on carbon quantum dots (CQDs)-improved chemiluminescence (CL) in a luminol–potassium permanganate (KMnO <sub>4</sub> ) system.
A systematic study by reversible and hysteretic electrochemical strain microscopy (ESM) in samples of cerium oxide with different Sm content and in several working conditions allows disclosing the microscopic mechanism underlying the difference in electrical conduction mechanism and related surface activity, such as w…
Graphene oxide based nanocomposites were prepared through the <italic>in situ</italic> polymerization of aniline and pyrrole to study the interaction of graphene oxide with polyaniline (PANI) and polypyrrole (PPy).
The electrical properties of the metallic interface in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO) bilayers are investigated with focus on the role of cationic defects in thin film STO. Systematic growth-control of the STO thin film cation stoichiometry (defect-engineering) yields a relation between cationic defects in the STO layer and…
Layered materials, if exfoliated effectively, will exhibit several unique properties, offering great potential for diverse applications. To this end, in this study, we develop a novel, universal, and environmentally friendly method named as 'water freezing expansion exfoliation' for producing two-dimensional nanosheet…
In this study, three-dimensional cobalt oxide microstructures were developed. Cobalt oxide microdumbbells and microspheres, assembled by nanowires and primary particles, were successfully synthesized by a multistep hydrothermal method. Of all of the structures, the cobalt oxide microdumbbell electrode possesses the la…
Montmorillonite-pillared graphene oxide was used as adsorbent with increased single- and co-adsorption towards lead ions and methylene blue.
Hierarchical porous catalysts have recently attracted increasing interest because of the enhanced accessibility to active sites on such materials. In this context, previously reported hierarchically mesoporous ASN and ASPN materials are evaluated by applying them to the dehydration of glycerol, and demonstrate excelle…
Using a controllable wet chemical approach, the polyol process, we developed a cobalt carbide nanomagnet consisting of an assembly of Co2C and Co3C nanoparticles as an alternative to rare earth permanent magnets (PMs). The thermodynamically stable mixed phase cobalt carbide nanoparticles are shown to be acicular in mo…
The thermoelectric properties of multiple core-shell nanowires are investigated by using nonequilibrium Green's function method and molecular dynamics simulations. The results show that the thermoelectric performance of multiple core-shell NWs can be improved observably with the increase of shell number compared with…
Amyloid fibrils have recently received attention due to their remarkable mechanical properties, which are highly correlated with their biological functions. We have studied the mechanical deformation mechanisms and properties of amyloid fibrils as a function of their length scales by using atomistic simulations. It is…
Hitherto unknown Au→Al interactions have been evidenced upon coordination of the geminal phosphorus-aluminum Lewis pair Mes2 PC(=CHPh)AltBu2 (Mes=2,4,6-trimethylphenyl). Four different gold(I) complexes featuring alkyl (Me), aryl (Ph, C6F5), and alkynyl (C≡CPh) co-ligands have been prepared. X-ray diffraction analyses…
We report thermal to electrical energy conversion from a 150 nm thick BaTiO3 film using pyroelectric cycles at 1 kHz. A microfabricated platform enables temperature and electric field control with temporal resolution near 1 μs. The rapid electric field changes as high as 11 × 105 kV/cm-s, and temperature change rates…
