Characteristics and Electrochemical Performance of Supercapacitors with Manganese Oxide-Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposite Electrodes, Lee, Chia Ying, Tsai, Huei Mei, Chuang, Huey Jan, Li, Seu Yi, Lin, Pang, Tseng, Tseung Yuen
Soil organic matter (SOM) is a fundamental component of soil and the global C cycle. We used C (1s) near‐edge x‐ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) and synchrotron‐based Fourier transform infrared‐attenuated total reflectance (FTIR‐ATR) spectroscopy to speciate C and investigate the influence of land use on the com…
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have unique mechanical properties that make them close to ideal reinforcing materials. Single walled CNT have a modulus of elasticity of approximately 1 TPa, yield strengths measured at between 20 and 60 GPa, and measured elastic strains at yield that are greater than 10%. In addition, CNT typic…
We report near infrared broadband emission of bismuth-doped barium-aluminum-borate glasses. The broadband emission covers 1.3microm window in optical telecommunication systems. And it possesses wide full width at half maximum (FWHM) of ~200nm and long lifetime as long as 350micros. The luminescent properties are quite…
Bio-nanocomposites are an emerging group of hybrid materials derived from natural polymers and inorganic solids interacting at the nanometric scale. These nanostructured organic–inorganic materials could be designed and prepared using a wide type of biopolymers and also inorganic solids with different compositions and…
To protect solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) from chromium poisoning and improve metallic interconnect stability, manganese cobaltite spinel protection layers with a nominal composition of Mn 1 . 5 Co 1 . 5 O 4 were thermally grown on Crofer22 APU, a ferritic stainless steel. Thermal, electrical, and electrochemical inve…
Polycrystalline aggregates are comprised of three microstructural features: grain centers, grain boundaries, and regions affected by grain boundaries. It is these features that determine the mechanical properties, and any advanced understanding of microstructure-property relations requires their quantitative descripti…
Ni(OH)2 hollow microspheres with beta-Ni(OH)2 nanosheets as the in situ formed building units were fabricated via a novel template-free approach in a strong alkaline solution of glycine, and can be converted into NiO hollow microspheres by a thermal decomposition process.
Well-ordered mesoporous alumina materials with high surface area and a narrow pore size distribution were synthesized using a sol-gel based self assembly technique.
Sol–gel derived hybrid organic–inorganic materials present several advantages to the design of materials for optical applications: they have versatile and relatively facile chemistry; are easy to shape and pattern, and they have good mechanical and excellent optical properties. Their nanocomposite structure gives oppo…
The shape of gold nanoparticles has been successfully tuned among penta-twinned decahedrons, truncated tetrahedrons, cubes, octahedrons, hexagonal thin plates by introducing a small amount of salt into a N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution containing poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP), and changing the temperature or the…
The term 'textile composites' is often used to describe a rather narrow range of materials, based on three-dimensional reinforcements produced using specialist equipment. In Design and manufacture of textile composites, however, the term is used to describe the broad range of polymer composite materials with textile r…
A layered double hydroxide (LDH) with nitrate as the counter anion (LDH–NO3 with Mg/Al = 3) was, for the first time, successfully delaminated in formamide under ultrasonic treatment. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) images showed that a large part of the LDH was delaminated into single and double brucite layers (0.7–1.4…
This article describes recent achievements made by us and other groups in targeted synthesis of porphyrin-based framework solids by various non-covalent mechanisms of molecular recognition. The self-assembly processes are effected in a tunable manner either by direct association of suitably designed porphyrin building…
Pore size and thickness of pore walls in macroporous polyacrylamide gels, so-called cryogels (pAAm-cryogels), were controlled by varying the content of monomers in the initial reaction mixture and the cross-linker used. The thickness of pore walls in pAAm-cryogels increased with increasing concentration of monomers in…
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a group of carbon andenergy storage compounds that are accumulated during suboptimal growth by many bacteria, and intracellularly deposited in the form of inclusion bodies. Accumulation of PHAs is thought to be used by bacteria to increase survival and stress tolerance in changing envi…
Conducting polymers are excellent candidates for applications in displays, mirrors, windows, light-emitting diodes, photovoltaics, near-infrared devices and electrochromic devices. From these potential applications, in this article, we will focus on the electrochromic polymers and devices. Although several objective s…
Tetranuclear [Mn(III)2Ln(III)2] complexes formed using tripodal ligands display frequency dependent out-of-phase ac susceptibility signals and temperature and sweep rate dependent hysteresis loops.
Carbon nanofibers and nanotubes are promising to revolutionise several fields in material science and are a major component of nanotechnology. Further market development will depend on material availability at reasonable prices. Nanotubes have a wide range of unexplored potential applications in various technological…
A new set of ANSYS coupled-field elements enables users to accurately and efficiently analyze thermoelectric devices. This paper reviews the finite element formulation, which, in addition to Joule heating, includes Seebeck, Peltier, and Thomson effects. Examples of steady-state and transient simulations of a thermoele…
