Abstract Functionalization of polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) polymers with hydrogen‐bonding ureidopyrimidinone (UPy) groups leads to supramolecular thermoplastic elastomers. In previous studies, no lateral stacking of UPy dimers was observed in UPy‐functionalized polymers, unless additional urethane or urea groups were…
Functionalized, dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles (Au DSNPs) are of scientific and technological interest for biological applications. In this work, we show that acetamide-functionalized Au DSNPs can be formed by acetylation of amine-terminated poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers of generation 5 (G5.NH(2)) compl…
The electronic structure of the oxygen vacancy in ZnO has been found to be sensitive to the corrections applied to the local (spin) density approximation (LSDA) band gap underestimate. Here, the ``$\mathrm{LSDA}+U$'' approach, in which Hubbard-$U$ corrections are added to the local density approximation, is applied to…
Low-coordinate Ti (III) fragments with controlled geometries designed specifically for sigma-H2 binding were grafted onto mesoporous silica using tri- and tetrabenzyl Ti precursors. The hydrogen storage capacity was tested as a function of precursor and precursor loading level. At an optimal loading level of 0.2 mol e…
This review critically examines the experimental aspects of dynamic wetting, considering extant data for different geometries. Both partial wetting and complete wetting are considered for cases that include droplets, fibers, tubes, and plates. The wetting of porous materials is also considered, along with the new fiel…
In this article mixed CuInP$_2$(S$_x$Se$_{1-x}$)$_6$ crystals were investigated by broadband dielectric spectroscopy (20 Hz - 3 GHz). The complete phase diagram has been obtained from these results. The phase diagram of investigated crystals is strongly asymmetric - the decreasing of ferroelectric phase transition tem…
Substitution of F-Bodipy with alkynylaryl residues at boron, at the pyrrolic core or at the meso position, provides unique tri-, tetra-, and pentasubstituted dyes. Substitution at the (pyrrolic) 2,6-positions provides substantial red shifts with quantum yields in the 40-90% range and excited-state lifetimes of 3-7 ns.…
Combinatorial materials science offers an exciting experimental strategy for rapidly surveying a wide array of materials chemistries and process variables coupled to the screening of structure and properties. Adapting approaches used in synthetic organic chemistry for applications such as pharmaceutical sciences and c…
A simple approach for the aqueous room temperature synthesis of marigold shape single crystalline fluorescent gold nanoflowers without using seeds or structure-regulating reagent and their SERS and electrocatalytic activity is described.
Because of the severe increase of mortality by cardiovascular diseases, there has been rising interest among the tissue-engineering community for small-sized blood vessel substitutes. Here we present small diameter vascular grafts made of slow degradable poly(epsilon-caprolactone) nanofibers obtained by electrospinnin…
Based on Monte Carlo calculations, multipolar ordering on the Penrose tiling, relevant for two-dimensional molecular adsorbates on quasicrystalline surfaces and for nanomagnetic arrays, has been analyzed. These initial investigations are restricted to multipolar rotors of rank one through four - described by spherical…
By studying the fluorescence and optical properties of a three-level system, we propose a new point of view on the coherent control of these spectra. With the definite phase difference between the fields of the air band and dielectric band in photonic band gap (PBG) reservoirs, the spectra of spontaneous emission, abs…
Discrete models of dislocations in cubic crystal lattices having one or two atoms per unit cell are proposed. These models have the standard linear anisotropic elasticity as their continuum limit and their main ingredients are the elastic stiffness constants of the material and a dimensionless periodic function that r…
The rapidly rising fields of spintronics and quantum information science have led to a strong interest in developing the ability to coherently manipulate electron spins. Electron spin resonance (ESR) is a powerful technique to manipulate spins that is commonly achieved by applying an oscillating magnetic field. Howeve…
We propose a spin current diode which can work even in a small applied bias condition (the linear-response regime). The prototypal device consists of a hornlike electron waveguide with Rashba spin-orbit interaction, which is connected to two leads with different widths. It is demonstrated that when electrons are incid…
The suitability of the Green--Kubo method for predicting the thermal conductivity of nanocomposites is assessed by studying model Lennard-Jones superlattices. Good agreement is found when comparing the predicted cross-plane thermal conductivities to independent predictions from the direct method. The link between the…
Surfaces exhibiting complex topographies, such as those encountered in biology, give rise to an enormously rich variety of interfacial morphologies of a liquid to which they are exposed. In the present article, we elaborate on some basic mechanisms involved in the statics and dynamics of such morphologies, focusing on…
Luminescent perovskite nanosheets were prepared by exfoliation of single- or double-layered perovskite oxides, K2Ln2Ti3O10, KLnNb2O7, and RbLnTa2O7 (Ln: lanthanide ion). The thickness of the individual nanosheets corresponded to those of the perovskite block in the parent layered compounds. Intense red and green emiss…
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is a powerful tool for surface and interface analysis, providing the elemental composition of surfaces and the local chemical environment of adsorbed species. Conventional XPS experiments have been limited to ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions due to a short mean free path of elec…
We have investigated the paraelectric-to-ferroelectric phase transition of various sizes of nanocrystalline barium titanate (BaTiO3) by using temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). Synchrotron X-ray scattering has been used to elucidate the room temperature structures of particles…
