Methods are presented to synthesize suspensions of chemically and shape anisotropic colloids on submicrometer length scales. Particles are synthesized through seeded emulsion polymerization where a weakly cross-linked seed is swollen with monomer that phase separates at the reaction temperature resulting in a protrusi…

A demonstration of magnetization reversal via the application of electric field across a multiferroic heterostructure, consisting of a FeCoV ribbon bonded to a lead magnesium niobate-lead titanate crystal, is presented. The magnetization switching occurs by an abrupt change in magnetization near ferromagnetic coercivi…

Channel your energy: Bodipy dyes were linked covalently by a method involving three key steps, including a carboformylation reaction. All multichromophoric dyes exhibited highly efficient photoinduced energy transfer to the terminal Bodipy modules, which fluoresced at 652 nm with 57 % quantum efficiency (see absorptio…

The formation of a shish kebab (SK) structure, where carbon nanotubes (CNTs) serve as shish and polymer lamellae serve as kebab, is particularly interesting and provides a novel way to enhance the polymer-CNT interface. A fine SK structure is achieved through melt spinning. High density polyethylene and pristine CNTs…

We propose a model to calculate the electronic structure of hydrotalcite-like compounds by using periodic boundary conditions and ab initio density functional theory (DFT). The proposed method to build up layered double hydroxides (LDHs) was tested for Zn 2/3 Al 1/3 (OH) 2 Cl 1/3 · 2 / 3 H 2 O, Zn 2/3 Al 1/3 (OH) 2 (C…

This Perspective describes studies aimed at effective excitation of molecules by localized surface plasmon polaritons. Recently developed bottom-up and top-down techniques allow the controlled fabrication of well-defined metal structures exhibiting desirable localization of plasmon energy. Under certain conditions, mo…

Boron-doped diamond is a promising transducer material for numerous devices which are designed for contact with electrolytes. For optimized electron transfer the surface of diamond needs to be hydrogen terminated. Up to now H-termination of diamond is done by plasma chemical vapor deposition techniques. In this paper,…

This paper presents a "one-spot" procedure to fabricate polystyrene/silica (PS/SiO(2)) hybrid hollow spheres. In this approach, when poly(vinylpyrrolidone)-stabilized PS colloids were deposited by sol-gel derived silica layer under acidic medium, it was interesting to find that the PS/SiO(2) core-shell colloids gradua…

Thin films of polyaniline (PANi) and PANi:titanium oxide (TiO2) composites have been synthesized by sol—gel spin coating technique. The TiO2 powder of particle size 50–60 nm was synthesized by sol–gel technique and the polyaniline was synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline. The composite films wer…

We accomplished a facile and scalable route to linearly stacked, one-dimensional metal nanowire assembly via soft graphoepitaxy of block copolymers. A one-dimensional nanoscale lamellar stack could be achieved by controlling the block copolymer film thickness self-assembled within the disposable topographic confinemen…

Recent experiments on hydrogenated amorphous silicon using infrared absorption spectroscopy have indicated the presence of mono- and divacancy in samples for concentration of up to 14\% hydrogen. Motivated by this observation, we study the microstructure of hydrogen in two model networks of hydrogen-rich amorphous sil…

Stable cross sections of multiwalled carbon nanotubes subjected to electron-beam irradiation are investigated in the realm of the continuum mechanics approximation. The self-healing nature of $s{p}^{2}$ graphitic sheets implies that selective irradiation of the outermost walls causes their radial shrinkage with the re…

We use a string of confined $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ions to measure perturbations to a trapping potential which are caused by light-induced charging of an anti-reflection coated window and of insulating patches on the ion-trap electrodes. The electric fields induced at the ions' position are characterised as a function of dista…
