Transition-metal chalcogenide (TMC) nanoflakes of composition MX2 (where M=Ti, Zr and Hf; X=S and Se) crystallize preferentially in equilateral hexagons and exhibit a pronounced lateral quantum confinement. The hexagonal shape of octahedral (1T) TMC nanoflakes is the result of charge localization at the edges/vertices…

The nonlinear refractive index n2 of SiO2-Al2O3-La2O3 (SAL) glasses of 10 to 24 mol% La2O3 is determined via Z-scan technique at 800 nm in the sub-100 fs time regime. n2 (5.8 to 9.3 × 10−16 cm2/W) correlates linearly with the La2O3 concentration scaling by the factor (0.264 ± 0.007)×10−16 cm2/W per mol% of La2O3. The…

In the present work, a highly sensitive chemiluminescence (CL) system for determination of trace bisphenol A (BPA) was established. The method was based on the inhibitory effect of luminol CL by BPA on the Cu NCs-enhanced luminol–KMnO4 CL system for the first time. Water-soluble Cu NCs capped with BSA were synthesized…

macrocycles by protonation led to the generation of unconventional Ag-S nanoparticles with a large energy gap. Theoretical calculations by a hybrid DFT method demonstrated that the silver sulfide clusters with high Ag/S ratio exhibited more localized HOMO-LUMO orbitals, which consequently enlarged their band gap energ…

Fabrication and characterization in the THz frequency range of silk foams and silk foam‐based waveguides using lyophilisation and casting techniques are reported. The lack of biocompatible and biofriendly waveguides for low‐loss, low‐dispersion guidance of THz waves motivates the work for applications in remote and st…

Abstract Multifunctional glass windows that combine energy storage and electrochromism have been obtained by facile thermal evaporation and electrodeposition methods. For example, WO 3 films that had been deposited on fluorine‐doped tin oxide (FTO) glass exhibited a high specific capacitance of 639.8 F g −1 . Their co…

ABSTRACT The nucleation parameter K g of filled PP, HDPE, and PA6 is determined through nonisothermal DSC measurements. A novel method is proposed for the determination of the size distribution of critical nuclei, where the most commonly found fraction was obtained as a peak value. The models are tested at different c…

Abstract Cu–Al spinel oxide, which contains a small portion of the CuO phase, has been successfully used in methanol steam reforming (MSR) without prereduction. The omission of prereduction not only avoids the copper sintering prior to the catalytic reaction, but also slows down the copper‐sintering rate in MSR. Durin…
