A 2D supramolecular honeycomb network built on hydrogen bonding of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid diimide (PTCDI) and 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine (Melamine) has been self-assembled on Au(111) by a solution processed method. The ability of the porous network to host functional molecular oxides or polyoxometal…
The NDP-forming acyl-CoA synthetases (ACDs) catalyze the conversion of various CoA thioesters to the corresponding acids, conserving their chemical energy in form of ATP. The ACDs are the major energy-conserving enzymes in sugar and peptide fermentation of hyperthermophilic archaea. They are considered to be primordia…
Ag/Cu2O microstructures with diverse morphologies have been successfully synthesized with different initial reagents of silver nitrate (AgNO3) by a facile one-step solvothermal method. Their structural and morphological characteristics were carefully investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron…
We use aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy to track the real time atomic level torsional dynamics of subnanometer wires of MoS interconnecting monolayer regions of MoS2. An in situ heating holder is used inside the transmission electron microscope to raise the temperature of the sample to 400 °C to i…
Thermoresponsive dendronized polymers, displaying remarkable phase behavior, are currently being studied for their potential exploitation as polymeric sensors and biomaterials. Understanding the conformational transitions occurring at the LCST is essential for improved design and translation of these polymers. The com…
Solid-state fluorescence probes, without the disadvantages of the existing probe in solution or any pretreatment needed for the analytes, are in great need for the detection of abused drugs. The abused drugs exist as salts, which have low reactivity and volatility, so there is a big challenge for the detection using t…
By means of hybrid density functional theory (DFT) computations, we found that (Li,K)-codoped WO3 shows a significantly enhanced near-infrared (NIR) absorption ability for smart windows, and investigated the influence of doping through the analysis of the electronic structures of pure and doped hexagonal WO3. Furtherm…
The functions of anti‐fouling, zwitterionic polycarboxybetaine (pCB) coating, and anti‐platelet nitric oxide (NO) release replicate key anticoagulant properties of the endothelium. The two approaches, only tested separately thus far, are paired on gas permeable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membranes and evaluated for f…
The unique antiwetting properties of superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces prevent the adhesion of water and bodily fluids, including blood, urine, and saliva. While typical manufacturable approaches to create SH surfaces rely on chemical and structural modifications, such approaches are expensive, require postprocessing, an…
Atomic registry has a strong impact on the electronic structure and properties of graphene due to its localized strain and localized charge distribution. However, direct experimental evidence of a correlation between its physical structure and chemical reactivity is still lacking. Here, we report that the electron tra…
Generation of hybrid nanostructures has been attested as a promising approach to develop high-performance sensing substrates. Herein, hybrid zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorod dopants with different gold (Au) thicknesses were grown on silicon wafer and studied for their impact on physical, optical and electrical characteristics…
Abstract Various α‐amino acid (αAA) molecules were screened for their ability to retard the corrosion of AA2024 aluminum alloy substrate. The αAAs screened were L‐arginine (L‐Arg), L‐asparagine (L‐Asn), L‐cysteine (L‐Cys), L‐cystine, L‐histidine (L‐His), L‐methionine (L‐Met), L‐phenylalanine (L‐Phe), L‐serine (L‐ser),…
Here, we studied the interwall friction and sliding behaviors of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs). The interwall friction shows a linear dependence on the pullout velocity of the inner wall. The axial curvature in DWCNTs causes the significant increase of the interwall friction. The axial curvature also affects…
The effects of liquid water and 1,4-dioxane on the hydrodeoxygenation of propionic acid over Pd(211) model surfaces have been studied from first principles. A microkinetic model with parameters obtained from density functional theory and implicit solvation models was developed to study the effects of these solvents on…
Hyaluronan (HA) is a promising drug carrier for cancer therapy because of its CD44 targeting ability, good biocompatibility, and biodegradability. In this study, cisplatin (CDDP)-incorporating HA nanogels were fabricated through a chelating ligand-metal coordination cross-linking reaction. We conjugated chelating liga…
In this article, we demonstrate a model-based approach for controlling the average size of crystals produced by batch cooling crystallization. The method is distinguished most notably in the modeling strategy. Rather than developing a crystallization model within the population-balance framework, as is usually done, w…
Abstract In this study, polyetherimide‐graphene composites (PEI/G) were prepared and investigated as corrosion inhibition coatings on copper substrates. Various loadings of graphene were incorporated in the polyetherimide matrix using an in situ polymerization approach, and the composite coatings were cured by thermal…
Density functional theory calculations have been employed to probe into a comparative study of HCOOH oxidation on Pt(111) and three PtAu(111) surfaces with different Pt atomic ensembles-decorated Au(111) surfaces, denoted as Pt ML, Pt 6 Au 3, and Pt 3 Au 6, respectively. Our results show that HCOOH dehydrogenation is…
Nanodiscs are composed of scaffold protein or peptide such as apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and phospholipids. Although peptide-based nanodiscs have an advantage to modulate the size of nanodiscs by changing phospholipid/peptide ratios, they are usually less stable than apoA-I-based nanodiscs. In this study, we designed…
A series of Sb-doped Mg2Si(1-x)Sb(x) compounds with the Sb content x within 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.025 were prepared by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) combined with plasma activated sintering (PAS) method in less than 20 min. Thermodynamic parameters of the SHS process, such as adiabatic temperature, ignition te…
