A nanofabrication process has been developed for a novel critical-angle transmission grating for astronomical x-ray spectroscopy. The pitch of the gratings is 200 nm and the depth is 4 μm, which exceeds the state-of-the-art in aspect ratio by over a factor of 2 for ultrahigh aspect ratio freestanding nanoscale grating…
Zinc oxide nanostructures have been successfully prepared through dissolving of microsized zinc xide powder in ammonium hydrogencarbonate solution at 25°C, followed by calcination of the resultant precipitates at 350°C for 1 h. The influence of urea presence on morphology and particle size of the as-prepared zinc oxid…
Channel hopping: the formation of WO(3) layers with an aligned nanochannel morphology by using self-organizing anodization of a tungsten metal substrate is demonstrated. The nanochannel layers with diameters of approximately 9 nm can be grown to about 10 μm thickness. Layers optimized for length and structure are prom…
A new class of Ni(dmit)(2) anion radical salt (Et-2,5-DBrP)[Ni(dmit)(2)](2) (1) (Et-2,5-DBrP = ethyl-2,5-dibromopyridinium) was developed. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that this salt contains two crystallographically independent anion layers in the crystal with effective Br···S halogen bonds bet…
We have developed new, Mg/SiC multilayer coatings with corrosion barriers which can be used to efficiently and simultaneously reflect extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation in single or multiple narrow bands centered at wavelengths in the spectral region from 25 to 80 nm. Corrosion mitigation was attempted through the us…
Making defect-free macromolecules is a challenging issue in chemical synthesis. This challenge is especially pronounced in dendrimer synthesis where exponential growth quickly leads to steric congestion. To overcome this difficulty, proportionate branching in dendrimer growth is proposed. In proportionate branching, b…
Activation of the C–H bonds in CH4 is relatively difficult, since CH4 is a quite a stable hydrocarbon with an extremely high ignition temperature (>1600 °C), which usually causes sintering and deactivation of catalysts. It remains a challenge to find catalysts that can show both good catalytic activity and thermal sta…
The electronic characteristics of a planar covalent organic framework (COF) on graphene are investigated by means of dispersion-corrected density functional theory. The aromatic central molecule of the COF acts as an electron donor to graphene, while the linker of the COF acts as an electron acceptor. The concerted in…
BACKGROUND: Generally, chemotherapeutic drugs attack on both normal and tumor cells non-specifically causing life threatening side effects, necessitating targeted drug delivery to tumors. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to formulate albumin-based nanoparticles for tumor targeted drug delivery and noninvasive dia…
Abstract Organic montmorillonite (OMMT) and the one‐dimensional functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (FMWCNTs) were introduced into poly( L ‐lactide) (PLLA) to prepare PLLA/OMMT and PLLA/FMWCNT nanocomposites, respectively. The effects of nanofillers on melt crystallization and cold crystallization of PLLA were…
We investigated the phenomenon of incomplete wetting of a high-energy liquid subphase by drops of pure amphiphilic molecules as well as drops of amphiphile solutions that are immiscible with the subphase. We show that amphiphiles escape across the contact line of the drop, move on the subphase/vapor interface, and for…
The impact of temperature and time scale on the threshold displacement energy (${E}_{d}$) has been investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. Employing a systematic approach to simulating low energy displacement cascades, defect formation probability has been quantified and precise values of ${E}_{d}$ have been…
The electron transport through a single endohedral Ce@C${}_{82}$ metallofullerene bridging between metal electrodes was investigated with experimental (break junction) as well as theoretical (density functional theory coupled with the nonequilibrium Green's function formalism) techniques. The single Ce@C${}_{82}$ mole…
The possibility of quantitative reaction analysis on the orbital energies of long-range corrected density functional theory (LC-DFT) is presented. First, we calculated the Diels-Alder reaction enthalpies that have been poorly given by conventional functionals including B3LYP functional. As a result, it is found that t…
In order to develop the microscopic theory of the multiphoton interaction of graphene with strong laser fields of arbitrary polarization, the analytical solution of established evolutionary equation for graphene single-particle density matrix was obtained revealing the generalized Rabi oscillations of Fermi-Dirac sea…
The results of a systematic study of octahedral tilting in oxo- and fluoroperovskites by density functional theory (DFT) calculations are presented and discussed. Eleven perovskites displaying different structural, magnetic, and metallic properties have been studied by means of nine exchange-correlation functionals, r…
The first synthesis and self-organization of zinc β-phosphorylporphyrins in the solid state and in solution are reported. β-Dialkoxyphosphoryl-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrins and their Zn(II) complexes have been synthesized in good yields by using Pd- and Cu-mediated carbon-phosphorous bond-forming reactions. The Cu-…
Small organic molecules with strong intermolecular interactions have a wide range of desirable optical and electronic properties and rich phase behaviors. Incorporating them into block copolymer (BCP)-based supramolecules opens new routes to generate functional responsive materials. Using oligothiophene-containing sup…
Abstract Solid oxide fuel cell–gas turbine (SOFC‐GT) systems provide a thermodynamically high efficiency alternative for power generation from biofuels. In this study biofuels namely methane, ethanol, methanol, hydrogen, and ammonia are evaluated exergetically with respect to their performance at system level and in s…
The need of corrosion protection for metals in aggressive environments is an issue of prime importance for widespread applications. In this article, we demonstrate the properties of oxide coatings prepared in molybdate/silicate and aluminate/silicate composite electrolytes via plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) on Mg…
