Abstract Kolmogorov flow in two dimensions – the two-dimensional (2D) Navier–Stokes equations with a sinusoidal body force – is considered over extended periodic domains to reveal localised spatiotemporal complexity. The flow response mimics the forcing at small forcing amplitudes but beyond a critical value develops…
Isolation of chiral molecules as pure enantiomers remains a fundamental challenge in chemical research. Enantioselective enrichment through preferential crystallization is an efficient method to achieve enantiopure compounds, but its applicability depends on the relative stability of the enantiopure and racemic crysta…
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has proven to be promising for the detection of trace analytes; however, the precise nanofabrication of a specific and sensitive plasmonic SERS-active substrate is still a major challenge that limits the scope of its applications. In this work, gold nanoparticles are self-assem…
Purpose – This paper aims to provide details of recent developments in nanosensors based on graphene. Design/methodology/approach – Following an introduction, this paper first considers some of the motivations for using graphene in sensors. It then describes a selection of recently reported graphene nanosensors for de…
Polypropylene nets are widely used as hernioplasty prostheses. The reproduction of bacteria within the net fibers intersections can occur after the application of the prosthesis causing infections. For this reason, bacteria have to be removed in the very early stage of surgical implantation. Activation of the prosthes…
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Particle–cell interactions in physiological media are important in determining the fate and transport of nanoparticles and biological responses to them. In this work, these interactions are assessed in real time using a novel atomic force microscopy (AFM) based platfo…
A green synthetic approach using olive leaf extract was optimized for preparing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Parameters affecting the formation of nanoparticles such as temperature, exposure time to extract, pH, concentration of silver nitrate, and extract (ratio of plant sample to extraction solvent) were investigat…
The way nanostructures behave and mechanically respond to high impact collision is a topic of intrigue. For anisotropic nanostructures, such as carbon nanotubes, this response will be complicated based on the impact geometry. Here we report the result of hypervelocity impact of nanotubes against solid targets and show…
Achieving supramolecular polymerization based on strong yet reversible bonds represents a significant challenge. A solution may be offered by perfluoroalkyl groups, which have remarkable hydrophobicity. We tested the idea that a perfluorooctyl chain attached to a perylene diimide amphiphile can dramatically enhance th…
We compare the Raman scattering properties of hybrid nanostructures consisting of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) in disordered and aligned arrangements on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) as a result of chemical and photoreduction methods. In the latter case, the unique structure of the very small Ag NP (from 4 to 7 nm…
ClpP is a highly conserved serine protease present in most bacterial species and in the mitochondria of mammalian cells. It forms a cylindrical tetradecameric complex arranged into two stacked heptamers. The two heptameric rings of ClpP enclose a roughly spherical proteolytic chamber of about 51 Å in diameter with 14…
The dielectric constant of indium in the deep-ultraviolet (DUV) region satisfies the conditions for localized surface plasmon resonance with low absorption loss. We report that indium acts as an agent of efficient surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) in the DUV. Indium-coated SERRS substrates were prepa…
Amide proton transfer (APT) imaging is a pH mapping method based on the chemical exchange saturation transfer phenomenon that has potential for penumbra identification following stroke. The majority of the literature thus far has focused on generating pH-weighted contrast using magnetization transfer ratio asymmetry a…
ABSTRACT Bio‐nanocomposite films based on chitosan/polyvinylpyrrolidone (CS/PVP) and graphene oxide (GO) were processed using the casting/evaporation technique. It has been found that the three components of bio‐nanocomposites can be easily mixed in controlled conditions enabling the formation of thick films with high…
This work presented controllable growth of ZnO nanostructures with different aspect ratios by the microwave irradiation method and investigated the photocatalytic degradation of methyl red (MR). X-ray diffraction (XRD), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SA…
Design and synthesis of two-dimensional (2D) materials with robust ferromagnetism and biocompatibility is highly desirable due to their potential applications in spintronics and biodevices. However, the hotly pursued 2D sheets including pristine graphene, monolayer BN, and layered transition metal dichalcogenides are…
In recent years, “green” nanomaterial synthesis methods that rely upon natural alternatives to industrial chemicals have been increasingly studied. Although the feasibility of synthesizing nanoparticles (NPs) using phytochemicals, carbohydrates, and other biomolecules is well established, environmental burdens of thes…
A series of tunable luminescence NaGdF4:Dy3+, Eu3+ nanophosphors have been synthesized for the first time by a one-step hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy were employed to…
Silicene is a two‐dimensional structure composed of a buckled hexagonal honeycomb lattice of silicon atoms. Freestanding silicene is yet to be synthesized, but epitaxial silicene monolayers have been directly observed or predicted to exist on a number of supporting substrates. Herein the atomic and electronic structur…
A novel 3D networked graphene-ferromagnetic hybrid can be easily fabricated using one-step microwave irradiation. By incorporating this hybrid material into shape memory polymers, the synergistic effects of fast speed and the enhancement of thermal conductivity and mechanical stiffness can be achieved. This can be bro…
