The hybridization of nanoparticle-labeled DNA targets to surface-attached DNA probes has been investigated. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and Raman and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were used to elucidate surface morphology, coverage, and the presence of aggregates. The factors that affect surfa…
The resonant second-order ${G}^{\ensuremath{'}}$-band Raman spectra of isolated single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) exhibit an interesting resonance phenomenon, whereby the ${G}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ band for some special $(n,m)$ isolated SWNTs exhibits a two-peak structure, while for most SWNTs, the ${G}^{\ensuremath{'}…

In situ attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) measurements were shown to allow the online monitoring of supersaturation during solution crystallization processes, thus opening up new monitoring and control possibilities. With this aim in view, the monitoring of unseeded batch cooling solution…
I describe a class of spin models with short-range plaquette interactions, whose static equilibrium properties are trivial, but which display glassy dynamics at low temperatures. These models have a dual description in terms of free defects subject to effective kinetic constraints, and are thus an explicit realization…
Calcination of mixtures of (c-C 5 H 9 ) 7 Si 7 O 9 (OH) 3, 1, and (c-C 5 H 9 ) 7 Si 7 O 12 Fe(tmeda), 2 (tmeda = N, N, N ‘, N ‘-tetramethylethylenediamine), led to microporous amorphous Fe−Si−O materials with adjustable iron content in the range 1−11 wt %. A set of different complementary techniques including N 2 phys…
This work evaluates the effects of different variables such as MII/MIII ratio (layer charge), interlayer anion (CO32− or Cl−) and nature of the trivalent cation (Al3+ or Fe3+) in the sorption of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) by layered double hydroxides (LDH) [MII1 − xMIIIx(OH)2]An−x/n·mH2O (MII = Mg2+, MIII = Al3+ or Fe…
We determine the capillary attraction and equilibrium configurations of particles trapped at a liquid-fluid interface due to the pinning of their contact line. We calculate analytically the asymptotic interaction energy between two particles and, numerically, the multibody energy landscape for up to four contacting pa…
Vapor sensors using thin porous silicon (PS) Fabry-Pérot films were prepared and characterized. The detection method used in this work involves measurement of the intensity of reflected light from a microporous Si film as a function of analyte concentration. Analyte adsorption within the pores of the film causes the F…
We report the preparation of loadable ultrathin, multilayered polyelectrolyte/dendrimer films by the sequential electrostatic deposition of negatively charged poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS) and a positively charged fourth generation poly(amidoamine) dendrimer (4G PAMAM). Multilayers were first constructed on planar supp…
Charge distribution in the insulating phase of $\ensuremath{\theta}\ensuremath{-}(\mathrm{BEDT}\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{TTF}{)}_{2}\mathrm{RbZn}(\mathrm{SCN}{)}_{4}$ [BEDT-TTF denotes bis(ethylenedithiolo)tetrathiafulvalene] is investigated using the polarized Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Both of the Raman and I…
Multilayer films of nanoparticles were grown in a systematic and controlled manner layer-by-layer by alternating exposures of suitably functionalized substrates (glass, Au) to either poly(allylamine) and carboxylic acid-functionalized nanoparticles or to poly(styrene sulfonate) and arylamine-functionalized nanoparticl…
We report experimental measurements of the adsorption of methane and ethane, and binary mixtures of these components, on MCM-41. This adsorbent, which has a simple, regular pore structure and a chemically homogeneous surface, was used as a model system on which to evaluate methods for the prediction of adsorption equi…
We have studied the electronic structure of ${\mathrm{Zn}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{x}\mathrm{O}$ using photoemission spectroscopy measurements and configuration-interaction (CI) calculations on a ${\mathrm{MnO}}_{4}$ cluster model. It is shown that the CI calculation can give a consistent description of the p…
The aggregation behavior of protoporphyrin IX in aqueous solution, as a function of pH and ionic strength, has been studied by means of UV/vis, fluorescence emission spectroscopy, and resonant light scattering (RLS) techniques. Our experimental results agree with previous literature assignments: (i) protoporphyrin IX…
In recent years electronic structures of ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Te}}_{3}$ and related materials have been studied theoretically through ab initio band-structure calculations and experimentally through photoemission experiments, but to the best of our knowledge, a detailed comparison between experiment and theory h…
Production of stable polymer−nanotube composites depends on good wetting interaction between polymer and nanotube, which is polymer specific, and depends in particular on chain conformation. In this paper, we examine this interaction for a conjugated, semiconducting polymer by a range of microscopic and spectroscopic…
We have performed a series of ab initio calculations to determine the atomic structure, ideal work of adhesion $({\mathcal{W}}_{\mathrm{ad}\mathrm{}}),$ and bonding character of the $\mathrm{Al}(111)/\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{Al}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}(0001)$ interface. Six candidate interface geometries…
Three new molybdenyl iodates, KMoO3(IO3) (1), RbMoO3(IO3) (2), and CsMoO3(IO3) (3), have been prepared through the hydrothermal reactions of MoO3 with AIO4 (A = K, Rb, or Cs) at 180 C. These compounds are isolated as nearly colorless, air-stable crystals. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments reveal that 1 poss…
Whenever a curved surface interacts with another surface, the principles of adhesion are at work. From the cells in your body to the dust on your glasses, intermolecular forces cause materials to attract one another. Elastic deformations resulting from these adhesive interactions store strain that can be liberated dur…
