Photonic miniaturization requires seamless integration of linear and nonlinear optical components to achieve passive and active functions simultaneously. Among the available material systems, silicon photonics holds immense promise for optical signal processing and on-chip optical networks. However, silicon is limited…
We present results on the fabrication of chemiresistive nanocomposite NiO:Pd hydrogen sensors, which are able to detect hydrogen concentrations as low as 300 ppb in air, operating at temperatures in the 115-145 C range. Thin NiO films were deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on silicon and quartz substra…
ZnCoO is one of the most studied and promising semiconductor materials for spintronics applications. In this work we discuss optical and electrical properties of ZnCoO films and nanoparticles grown at low temperature by either Atomic Layer Deposition or by a microwave driven hydrothermal method. We report that doping…
We report on the electrochemical charge storage behavior of few-layered flakes of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) obtained by liquid phase exfoliation of bulk MoS2 powder in 1-dodecyl-2-pyrrolidinone. The specific capacitances of the exfoliated flakes obtained using a 6 M KOH aqueous solution as an electrolyte were found…
The synthesis of air-stable and homogeneous gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) employing tert-butyl(naphthalen-1-yl)phosphine oxide as supporting ligand is described via NaBH4 reduction of a Au(I) precursor, [(tert-butyl(naphthalen-1-yl)phosphine oxide)AuCl]2. This highly reproducible and simple procedure furnishes small (1.2…
Cellular microenvironments are important in coaxing cells to behave collectively as functional, structured tissues. Important cues in this microenvironment are the chemical, mechanical and spatial arrangement of the supporting matrix in the extracellular space. In engineered tissues, synthetic scaffolding provides man…
Electrospun nanofibers with uniaxial alignment have recently gained its popularity as scaffolds for neural tissue engineering. Many studies have demonstrated that the nanofibers could guide the neurites to extend along the direction of alignment, resembling the native hierarchy of the nerve tissue. However, the contac…
Investigating the interactions between nanoscale materials and microorganisms is crucial to provide a comprehensive, proactive understanding of nanomaterial toxicity and explore the potential for novel applications. It is well known that nanomaterial behavior is governed by the size and composition of the particles, t…
Monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) produced by controlled vapor-phase synthesis is a commercially promising new two-dimensional material for optoelectronics because of its direct bandgap and broad absorption in the visible and ultraviolet regimes. By tuning plasmonic core-shell nanoparticles to the direct bandgap o…
Binary metal oxides with three-dimensional (3D) superstructure have been regarded as desirable electrode materials for the supercapacitor due to the combination of the improved electrical conductivity and effective porous structure. 3D hierarchical flower-shaped nickel cobaltite (NiCo2O4) microspheres have been fabric…
Zwitterionic polymers are generally viewed as a new class of nonfouling materials. Unlike their poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) counterparts, zwitterionic polymers have a broader chemical diversity and greater freedom for molecular design. In this Minireview, we highlight recent microbiological applications of zwitterioni…
In support of efforts to develop multiscale models of a variety of materials, we have performed a set of eleven gas gun impact experiments on 2169 steel, a high-strength austenitic stainless steel. These experiments provided carefully controlled shock, reshock, and release velocimetry data, with initial shock stresses…
Abstract Produced (oilfield) brines are rich in dissolved salts and thus have high ionic strength as well as conductivity. Further, they are in contact with ferrous metals used for oil- and gasfield installations. Thus, the potential for electro-chemical corrosion reactions in these environments is high. The latent co…
Swedish steel producers are particularly interested in the recovery of vanadium oxide from the steelmaking slag because of its high content in the LD‐converter slag. Hence, optimization of the vanadium recovery has strong economic and environmental impact. Solving the problem with vanadium recovery from the slag requi…
The present work is an investigation of AC impedance behaviour of poly( meta -aminophenol). The polymer was prepared by oxidative chemical polymerization of meta -aminophenol in aqueous HCl using ammonium persulfate as an oxidant at 0–3°C. The synthesized polymer was characterized by GPC, Elemental analysis, UV-VIS-NI…
Dielectric behavior and diffuse phase transition have been investigated in Sb doped lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) ceramics to understand the role of La and Sb in ferroelectric-to-relaxor crossover. Rayleigh and Curie–Weiss type law fittings show that the La substitution gradually transforms the PLZTs from f…
The use of ferroelectric materials as adsorbents or catalysts could be a promising way to control surface chemical reactions by tuning the ferroelectric polarization. In this context, the oxidation of carbon monoxide over well‐defined SrTiO 3 (100) and BaTiO 3 /SrTiO 3 (100) perovskite surfaces was investigated under…
The influence of 3-methylpyridine and 3-nitropyridine on the corrosion rate of aluminium in 1 mol L −1 potassium hydroxide solution was investigated using weight loss method. It was observed that both investigated derivatives behave as inhibitors. It was found that the inhibition efficiency increases with increasing i…
Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) can be used in targeted drug delivery systems for localized cancer treatment. MNPs coated with biocompatible polymers are useful for delivering anticancer drugs. Iron oxide MNPs were synthesized via co-precipitation method then coated with either chitosan (CS) or polyethylene g…
The important role of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), X‐ray photo electron spectroscopy (XPS) and time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS) to characterize different phosphor materials is pointed out with examples. AES is used to monitor surface reactions during electron bombardment and also to dete…
