Abstract Transparent glass‐ceramics with composition of 95SiO 2 –5LaF 3 doped with 0.1 mol% of Ho 3+ or co‐doped with 0.1 mol% of Ho 3+ and 0.3 mol% of Yb 3+ were synthesized by thermal treatment of precursor sol–gel glasses. Segregation of LaF 3 nanocrystals in the matrix was confirmed from a structural analysis by m…

We demonstrate the versatility of anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering (ASAXS) to investigate the morphology of bulk multicomponent composites comprising poly(stryrene- b -2-vinylpyridine) (PS−PVP) and Au nanoparticles. Contrast variation near the L 3 absorption edge of Au enables the separation of the partial scatt…

Abstract A novel nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon with well-ordered two-dimensional (2D) structure has been successfully prepared for the first time using aniline as a source for both carbon and nitrogen, and SBA-15 as a template. The above material has been unambiguously characterized by various sophisticated techniq…

Selective hydrogenation of acetylene in rich ethylene was investigated over uncalcined, air plasma, and H 2 plasma Pd/TiO 2 and Pd−Ag/TiO 2 catalysts. Air and H 2 plasma treatments have different modifying effects on Pd/TiO 2 catalyst for selective hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene. With additional Ag loadings, 1…

The arylamine N-acetyltransferases (NATs) are xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes that catalyze the N-acetylation of arylamines and their N-hydroxylated metabolites. These enzymes play a key role in detoxication of numerous drugs and xenobiotics. We report here the cloning, functional expression, and characterization of t…
