A new two-phase route has been developed to synthesize high-quality CdS nanocrystals with a narrow size distribution and a high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY). In the two-phase system, toluene and water were used as separate solvents for cadmium myristate (CdM2) and thiourea, which served as cadmium source…
We describe the three-dimensional structure of sinapyl alcohol dehydrogenase (SAD) from Populus tremuloides (aspen), a member of the NADP(H)-dependent dehydrogenase family that catalyzes the last reductive step in the formation of monolignols. The active site topology revealed by the crystal structure substantiates ki…
Engineered from the inside out: Polyelectrolyte-multilayered colloids were prepared employing the layer-by-layer technology. A lipid bilayer was then added, and finally rubella-like particles were fused. Immunofluorescence studies demonstrate that the colloidal biocomposites have a virus-like surface. Indeed, they wer…
The excitation-energy-hopping (EEH) times within two-dimensional cyclic zinc(II)-porphyrin arrays 5 and 6, which were prepared by intermolecular coordination and ring-closing metathesis reaction of olefins, were deduced by modeling the EEH process based on the anisotropy depolarization as well as the exciton-exciton a…
Photoinduced fluorescence enhancement (PFE) behavior in mono- and multilayer films of CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots (QDs) on glass substrates was investigated using various intensities and wavelengths of excitation light. CdSe/ZnS QDs capped with tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) were produced using colloidal chemi…
Ti and Sr nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of 18O enriched SrTiO3 (STO-18) provide direct evidence for Ti disorder already in the cubic phase and show that the ferroelectric transition at T(C)=24 K occurs in two steps. Below 70 K rhombohedral polar clusters are formed in the tetragonal matrix. These clusters subsequ…
Elastomeric nanofibers composed of cross-linked poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) are synthesized via a reactive electrospinning process. In this process, the photoinduced polymerization and cross-linking of polymers take place simultaneously during the electrospinning process. The produced nanofibers are mostly withi…
Mono- and di-alkylated polyethylenimines (PEI-1R, PEI-2R) were synthesized and used as both reductants, by exploiting the functionality of the polyethylenimine's (PEI) amino groups, and stabilizers able to protect nascent gold nanoparticles generated from hydrogen tetrachloroaurate (HAuCl4). From TEM images of the sta…
Large-scale synthesis of single-crystal CdS microbelts was achieved by a modified thermal evaporation method, in which an adiabatic layer was used to provide abrupt temperature decrease and high gas concentration for the microbelt growth. The synthesized CdS microbelts were usually several micrometers in width, 70 nm…
A series of subphthalocyanine-phthalocyanine dyads has been prepared by means of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions between a monoalkynylphthalocyanine and different monoiodosubphthalocyanines. Electronic coupling between the two photoactive units is ensured by a rigid and pi-conjugated alkynyl spacer. In ad…
Temperature dependent synchrotron powder diffraction and single crystal neutron diffraction data are used for probing the vibrational states and disorder in type I clathrates ${\mathrm{Ba}}_{8}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{16}{\mathrm{Si}}_{30}$, ${\mathrm{Ba}}_{8}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{16}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{30}$, ${\mathrm{Ba}}_{8}{\mathrm{In}…
We study the current flow paths between two edges in a random resistor network on a $L\times L$ square lattice. Each resistor has resistance $e^{ax}$, where $x$ is a uniformly-distributed random variable and $a$ controls the broadness of the distribution. We find (a) the scaled variable $u\equiv L/a^ν$, where $ν$ is t…
Structural and solid-state changes of piroxicam in its crystalline form under mechanical stress were investigated using cryogenic grinding, powder X-ray diffractometry, diffuse-reflectance solid-state ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, variable-temperature solid-state (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and…
We present a theoretical study on the band structures of the electron constrained to move along triply-periodic minimal surfaces. Three well known surfaces connected via Bonnet transformations, namely P-, D-, and G-surfaces, are considered. The six-dimensional algebra of the Bonnet transformations [C. Oguey and J.-F.…
The growth of ultra-thin layers of Fe on the vicinal Pt(997) surface is studied by thermal energy He atom scattering (TEAS) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) in the temperature range between 175K and 800K. We find three distinct regimes of qualitatively different growth type: Below 450K the formation of a smooth f…
In this paper we report studies on the correlation between the presence and distribution of cation vacancies in doped manganites (La,M)MnO3+delta (where M = Na, Ca) and their magnetic properties. Results indicate that cation vacancies are distributed differently for the different crystal structures and dopant ion type…
Two different ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transitions are detected in $(\mathrm{Ga},\mathrm{Mn})\mathrm{As}/\mathrm{GaAs}(001)$ epilayers from ac susceptibility measurements: transition at a higher temperature results from $(\mathrm{Ga},\mathrm{Mn})\mathrm{As}$ cluster phases with [110] uniaxial anisotropy and that at…
We report the chemical synthesis of Fe-core/Au-shell nanoparticles by a reverse micelle method, and the investigation of their growth mechanisms and oxidation-resistant characteristics. The core-shell structure and the presence of the Fe & Au phases have been confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, energy dispe…
The effective pair potentials of liquid nickel have been derived by means of the inverse self-consistent method from the experimental diffraction data. The potentials provide highly accurate coincidence of experimental and simulated structural properties. The statistical analysis of Voronoi polyhedral and Delaunau sim…
The most important property of a fluid is its viscosity, it determines the flow properties. If one simulates a fluid using a particle model, calculating the viscosity accurately is difficult because it is a collective property. In this article we describe a new method that has a better signal to noise ratio than exist…
