Anisotropic growth of nanocrystalline PbS with a variety of morphologies was achieved via hot colloidal synthesis in the presence of Au nanoparticles. Synthesis using Au nanoparticles produced more uniform diameter nanowires than could be obtained in their absence. A variety of other morphologies, such as nanorods, na…

Abstract The novel nanostructures are fabricated by the spatial chemical modification of nanowires within the anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template. To make the nanowires better dispersion in the aqueous solution, the copper is first deposited to fill the dendrite structure at the bottom of template. During the process…

A different method is proposed to evaluate the electrostatic potential and electric field from x-ray diffraction data by using maximum entropy method. The efficiency of the method is revealed in the application to a ferroelectric material ${\mathrm{PbTiO}}_{3}$. Visualized electrostatic potential and electric field on…

Temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) is used to determine the oxidation reactivity of carbonaceous deposits formed on different substrates via the thermal stressing of jet fuel samples. The multiple CO 2 peaks in TPO profiles are attributed to differences in the oxidation reactivity of the deposits, which is related…

One possible strategy for creating three-dimensional (3D) tissue-engineered organs in vitro is to develop a vasculature for sufficient transport of oxygen and nutrients within these constructs. Here, we describe a novel technique to fabricate endothelialized tubes with predetermined 3D configuration, as a starting poi…

We present a study of the factors that influence the adsorption of CO on a Pt(111) surface. Coadsorption of O and OH, as well as alloying of Ru is investigated. We find that coadsorption of CO either with O or OH on Pt weakens the strength of the Pt-CO bond, through a largely strain mediated interaction. Alloying Pt w…

ABSTRACT The effects of hydrogen charge on cyclic stress–strain properties, slip band morphology and crack behaviour of annealed medium carbon steels (JIS‐S45C) were studied. The total strain range of the stress–strain hysteresis loop in the hydrogen‐charged specimen was smaller than that in the uncharged specimen. Lo…

Pt/gamma-Al2O3 catalysts were prepared using hydroxyl-terminated generation four (G4OH) PAMAM dendrimers as the templating agents and the various steps of the preparation process were monitored by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The EXAFS results indicate that, upon hydrolysis, chlorine…
