Antireflective phosphor coatings having disordered surface nanostructures were fabricated by a sol-gel dip coating method and a subsequent hot water treatment. Thin films of a Bi(3+),Eu(3+)-codoped YVO4 red phosphor were first prepared and effects of the addition of an aluminum source to precursor solutions on their m…
This investigation is done to select the best composite on bending strength and stiffness derived from different parts of sugar palm fibre reinforced unsaturated polyester composites. Sugar palm tree is one of the most popular natural fibres. The fibre was obtained from the sugar palm tree and mixed with unsaturated p…
Using the discrete dipole approximation method, two visible extinction peaks are found for Ag nanohelixes. Both of them redshift periodically in an approximate half pitch with the helix height and redshift linearly with the helix diameter and pitch height. At the two absorbance peaks, an integer number of E-field maxi…
We report a method to predict the frequency dependence of coercive fields in ferroelectric films. The deduction of this method as well as the analysis are based on investigations of intrinsic switching kinetics of high-quality, single-crystal-like, epitaxial Pb(Zr 0.2 Ti 0.8 )O 3 thin films with extended defect-free s…
Increasing worldwide environmental awareness is an encouraging scientific research into the development of cheaper, more environmentally friendly and sustainable construction and packaging materials. Kenaf fibre is a natural fibre which is growing in popularity due environmental issues and its properties as filler. Ep…
We have found that there is a narrow but distinct window in oxygen pressure for growing phase-pure epitaxial EuO films by a pulsed laser deposition. With finely decreasing the oxygen pressure, the electrical property is varied from insulating to metallic with an enhancement in Curie temperature from 70 to 120 K. The a…
Cellulose and lignocellulose have great potential as nanomaterials because they are abundant, renewable, have a nanofibrillar structure, can be made multi¬functional and self-assemble into well-defined architectures. New methods for liberating these materials, including nanodimensional cellulose fibrils, macromolecule…
Nanostructured porous silicon (nanoPS) basically consists in a network of silicon nanocrystals with high specific surface. Its intrinsic high surface reactivity makes nanoPS a very suitable material for the development of biosensors. In this work, the surface of nanoPS was functionalized by the use of (3-aminopropyl)t…
Clusters of EuS nanocrystals formed through the thermal assembly of 2.5 nm nanocrystal monomers by varying the annealing temperature from 300 to 340 °C. Below 310 °C, oleate ligands stabilized on the surface of the EuS nanocrystals, giving rise to their low solubility in triethanolamine while facilitating monomer–mono…
The effect of electron beam (EB) irradiation on the optical properties of cadmium chloride (CdCl 2 )-doped polyethylene oxide (PEO) is studied. The films are characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) in KBr medium. The morphology study of the films is conducted using a scanning electron micros…
Nanoscale Gold colloidal dimers are built thanks to the convective capillary force assembly (CFA) technique. CFA efficiently demonstrates precise dimer localization, particle separation control, and object reproducibility. Darkfield microspectroscopy measurements combined with numerical modeling exhibit a redshift in…
The preparation and characterization of Schottky contacts on differently grown n-type ZnO crystals was studied. We demonstrate that depending on the crystal growth process different procedures of surface treatment should be used to achieve good Schottky contacts. A treatment in a dc-hydrogen plasma enables us to fabri…
La 0.8 Ca 0.2 MnO 3 (LCMO) thin films have been epitaxially grown on ferroelectric 0.67Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.33PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) substrates. The substrate-induced strain effects on the transport and photoinduced demagnetization in LCMO films were investigated. The photoinduced resistances (PRs) of LCMO systematically chang…
Low molecular weight gelators are an important class of molecules. The supramolecular gels formed by carbohydrate derived low molecular weight gelators are interesting soft materials that show great potential for many applications. Previously, we have synthesized a series of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-α-D-glucopyranosid…
We investigate theoretically the transmission properties through a p-n-p junction on graphene. Here, we show that the electronic transport property presents deep analogies with light propagation. It originates from the similarity between the linear spectra of the Dirac fermions and photons that obey the Maxwell’s equa…
Abstract Environmentally benign‐solvent free plasma process is employed to produce nanostructured PFDA‐ co ‐DEGDME amphiphilic coatings via plasma co‐polymerisation of 1 H ,1 H ,2 H ,2 H ‐perfluorodecyl acrylate (PFDA) and diethyleneglycol dimethyl ether (DEGDME) precursors in a low pressure‐RF‐inductively excited tub…
The synthesis of dodecasubstituted porphycenes has not been reported, to date. Herein, the preparation of tetramethyloctaethylporphycene by a McMurry-type coupling of 3,3',4,4'-tetraethyl-5,5'-diformyl-2,2'-bipyrrole was attempted at first, but dodecasubstituted porphycene was not successfully obtained and only pyrrol…
Preparation of a liquid-crystalline ionic-liquid (IL)-based interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) is described. The IPN is prepared sequentially by first photopolymerizing a self-assembled aqueous mixture of an IL monomer (1-(10-(acryloyloxy)decyl)-3-methylimidazolium chloride) that possesses an acryloyl moiety at th…
Electron spin resonance study of unzipped graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) reveals a specific carbon-related signal, denoted GC, at g=2.0032, attributed to GNRs periphery centers. The signal is observed to be readily quenched upon O2 adsorption, which appears to be fully reversible upon room temperature vacuum treatment. I…
Articular cartilage has limited repair and regeneration potential, and the scarcity of treatment modalities has motivated attempts to engineer cartilage tissue constructs. The use of chondrocytes in cartilage tissue engineering has been restricted by the limited availability of these cells, their intrinsic tendency to…
