The effect of hydrogen addition to silicon clusters Si n ( n = 11–15) is examined in terms of the change in their ground state geometry, bonding characteristics (bond lengths, bond angles and Si coordination numbers), structural stability, vibrational spectra and electronic structure. We found that addition of hydroge…

Abstract Supercritical CO 2 (ScCO 2 ) has been used to prepare molecularly imprinted polymers of poly(styrene‐ co ‐maleic acid) (PSMA) for targeted uracil (URA). The condition of ScCO 2 was on 16 MPa between 35 and 50°C. The resultant imprinted membranes prepared at 35 and 50°C bound URA with 9.2 ± 0.10 and 12.6 ± 0.0…

Reforming of diesel fuel is challenging but very attractive for hydrogen production. It can facilitate the market entrance of fuel cells due to the existing infrastructure for distribution of diesel fuel. Reforming in micro reactors enables good heat transfer and therefore small and compact fuel processing systems e.g…

We have investigated the magnetic and optical properties of chemically low temperature-synthesized Zn1– x Fe x O (x = 0.05 and 0.10) diluted magnetic semiconducting nanoparticles (∼7 nm). Observed magnetic behaviour of x = 0.05 samples showed that the net magnetic interaction was antiferromagnetic-like, a feature esta…

Abstract This article describes the use of aryl diazonium salts to attach halogenated functional groups that initiate atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) at the surface of conductive substrates. The interest of this procedure lies in the fact that aryl diazonium salts permit the grafting of high‐density initia…

Abstract Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) was applied to synthesize a new kind of star polymers of hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) core with multiarms of PS‐ b ‐PtBA and PS‐ b ‐PAA by using the “core first” technique. The HPG core was obtained by anionic polymerization of glycerol first, and then the penda…

A magnetoelectric laminate composite with electric-field-induced magnetization (EIM) effect was prepared. It was found that the phase shift of EIM in the laminate was highly sensitive to the dc magnetic field near resonance frequency. The dependence of the phase shift of EIM on the dc magnetic field was theoretically…

Magnetoelectronic properties of a two-dimensional (2D) monolayer graphene are investigated by the Peierls tight-binding model. They are dominated by the period, strength, and direction of a spatially modulated magnetic field. Such a field could induce the reduction in dimensionality, change of energy dispersions, anis…

We demonstrated highly sensitive detection of carbon monoxide (CO) down to 1 ppm at room temperature using platinum-decorated single-walled carbon nanotubes (Pt-SWNTs). The obtained sensitivity to CO was 3–4 orders higher than the values reported for functionalized SWNTs, and was achieved by the controlled deposition…
