The toxic effects from exposure to silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), which are broadly present in many consumer products, have long raised concerns. Many studies have focused on the mechanisms of nanosilver, which cause toxicity in human cells, but little is known about prevention of this type of injury. This study invest…

Density Functional Theory applying the generalised gradient approximation is used to study the phase stability of (AlxCr1−x)2O3 solid solutions in the context of physical vapour deposition (PVD). Our results show that the energy of formation for the hexagonal α phase is lower than for the metastable cubic γ and B1-lik…

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas-insulated equipment (GIE) has been widely used in extra/ultra high voltage power transmission systems. During its operation, GIE inevitably experiences partial overthermal faults caused by poor contact. In this study, the SF6decomposition characteristic of partial overthermal faults was u…

Today, the therapeutic efficacy of cancer is restricted by the heterogeneity of the response of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. Since those therapies are also associated with severe side effects in nontarget organs, the application of drugs in combination with nanocarriers for targeted therapy has been suggeste…

A scalable technique of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of ultra-thin graphitic film is proposed. Ultra-thin graphitic films grown by a one-step CVD process on catalytic copper substrate have higher crystallinity than pyrolytic carbon grown on a non-catalytic surface and appear to be more robust than a graphene…

In this study, nystatin liposomal formulation was prepared and characterized. The physicochemical properties of formulations including vesicle size, drug entrapment stability and in vitro release were studied. The highest entrapment efficiency of nystatin into liposomes was obtained about 70% when cholesterol (CHO) wa…

We present a simple, fast method for thickness characterization of suspended graphene/graphite flakes that is based on transmission electron microscopy (TEM). We derive an analytical expression for the intensity of the transmitted electron beam I 0(t), as a function of the specimen thickness t (t<<λ; where λ is the ab…

We report the electron transport properties of epitaxial graphene (EG) grown on 4H-SiC (0001) by low energy electron-beam irradiation. As-grown EG (AEG) on SiC interface exhibits rectifying current-voltage characteristics with a low Schottky barrier (SB) of 0.55 ± 0.05 eV and high reverse current leakage. The SB of AE…

We report the first experimental observation of the quenching of the superconducting state in current-voltage characteristics of an iron-based superconductor, namely, in Fe(Se,Te) thin films. Based on available theoretical models, our analysis suggests the presence of an intrinsic flux-flow electronic instability alon…

The incorporation of inorganic nano particles (TiO2, Al2O3and SiO2etc.) with polyimide (PI) greatly improves its dielectric property. The dielectric properties of PI films are largely influenced by the absorbed water and humidity. What is more, the water absorption will be affected greatly by nano particles. In this p…

The relation between ageing and space charge is a hot area, but there is little direct evidence. In this paper, oil-paper samples were exposed to 20-kV/mm DC electrical field, 130°C temperature or both 20-kV/mm DC electrical field and 130°C temperature separately. Charge transport through them was analyzed at interval…
