An approach based on a solution-based synthesis that produces a thermally stable Ag/oxide/S₂ Te₃ -Te metal-semiconductor heterostructure is described. With this approach, a figure of merit of zT = 1.0 at 460 K is achieved, a record for a heterostructured material made using wet chemistry. Combining experiments and the…

The utilization of smectite clay, swelling layered silicate, as scaffolds for designing functional nanostructures was overviewed. Surface modification of smectites with organoammonium ions has given hydrophobic and microporous nature to uptake nonionic organic contaminants from environments. The states of the adsorbed…

We propose an approach to disperse long single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in a manner that is most suitable for the fabrication of high-performance composites. We compare three general classes of dispersion mechanisms, which encompass 11 different dispersion methods, and we have dispersed long SWCNTs, short multi-…

The intricate hierarchical architectures in natural creatures are usually derived from assembly of molecular building blocks into nanoscale structures that then organize into micro- and macroscopic sizes. An example is the complex structure in arthropods (crustaceans, insects) constructed primarily of chitin. Because…

In this Study, Mg(2+) and Ba(2+) act to enhance the maximum emission of Sr2.97SiO5:0.03Eu(2+) significantly and redshift the emission band to the orange-red region in Sr(2.97-x-y)Mg(x)Ba(y)SiO5:0.03Eu(2+). Size mismatch between the host and the doped cations tunes the photoluminescence spectra shift systematically. A…

Glasses are usually brittle, seriously limiting their practical usage. Recently, the intrinsic ductility of glass was found to increase with the Poisson's ratio (v), with a sharp brittle-to-ductile (BTD) transition at vBTD = 0.31-0.32. Such a correlation between far-from-equilibrium fracture and near-equilibrium elast…
