Three immobilization strategies of cryptophane derivatives onto core–shell γ-Fe 2 O 3 /silica magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are reported. Immobilization of a cryptophane bearing five methoxy substituents and an alkanethiol chain, 1, was performed onto MNPs coated with a gold nanoshell. Likewise, immobilization of a cr…

Porous silicon (pSi) exhibits strong, visible photoluminescence (PL) at room temperature. To stabilize the pSi PL and simultaneously impart chemical functionality we oxidize pSi (ox-pSi) and then contact pin-print organically modified silanes onto the ox-pSi surface. This strategy allows rapid microarray production fo…

The dynamics of evaporation of water molecules from a single-walled carbon nanotube were investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. A single-barrier macro-statistical model was proposed to account for the interactions between water molecules and the single-walled carbon nanotube. Besides, the study found that the…

The electrons in graphene exhibit unusual behaviours, which can be described by massless Dirac quasiparticles. Understanding electron scattering in graphene has been of significant importance for its future application in electronic devices because electron scattering determines electrical properties such as resistivi…

The characteristics of the near-ultraviolet (NUV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with wide (14-nm-thick) and narrow (2-nm-thick) wells under the situations of different numbers of wells and degree of polarization are systematically investigated. The simulation results show that the Auger recombination can be efficiently…

We have studied the transport of light through phosphor diffuser plates that are used in commercial solid-state lighting modules (Fortimo). These polymer plates contain YAG:Ce+3 phosphor particles that both elastically scatter and Stokes shift light in the visible wavelength range (400–700 nm). We excite the phosphor…

Two-dimensional phase-field simulations of void swelling in the Austenitic stainless steel were performed for irradiated materials. A numerical model was established for void swelling with an implementation of the elasticity effect, and we examined the roles of the applied stress and grain boundary sink strength and F…

In L10 (fct)-FePt thin films, both tuning Fe and Pt concentrations and substitution with third-metal were studied for magnetic characteristic optimization. We investigated single-crystalline FePt-X (X = Mn, Ni, Cu) thin films grown epitaxially on MgO(001) substrates at a substrate temperature of 350 °C by changing Fe,…

Supramolecular polymers are polymers in which the individual subunits self-assemble via noncovalent and reversible bonds. An important axis of control for systems of mixed subunit composition is the order in which the subunit types assemble. Existing ordering techniques, which rely on pairwise interactions through the…

The topological charge of an electromagnetic vortex beam depends on its wavefront helicity. For mixed vortex beams composed of several different coaxial vortices, it is significant to investigate the local topological charges. Fourier transform based methods are restrained by the uncertainty principle and cannot achie…
