Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized using AgNO 3 as the metallic source and onion-type multilamellar vesicles (MLV) as the microreactor, where the Genamin T020 organic component is acting as the reductant. Silver ions were introduced into MLV either by diffusion from the dispersion medium, or directly by mixing…
Density functional theory (DFT) is used to study the static electronic dipole moments, polarizabilities, polarizability anisotropies, and first- and second-order hyperpolarizabilities of azoles. These properties are obtained with a finite field approach implemented in the DFT program ALLCHEM. The calculations were of…
The temperature dependent thermoelectric power (TEP) of boron- and nitrogen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotube mats has been measured showing that such dopants can be used to modify the majority conduction from p-type to n-type. The TEP of boron-doped nanotubes is positive, indicating hole-like carriers. In contrast, t…
Here we report a new type of nanocluster superlattice in which each four-connected cluster ([M4In16S31],6- M = Fe, Co, Zn, and Cd) alternates with a three-connected sulfur anion (S2-) to form a rare and yet theoretically important non-centrosymmetric and non-interpenetrating (3,4)-connected net topologically identical…
The adsorptions of hydrogen both on square-packed single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) arrays and on isolated nanotubes were investigated by a combination of a classical potential and density functional theory (DFT) method. Excess adsorption of hydrogen on the SWCNT with diameters of 1.225, 2.04, and 2.719 nm at 77 K…
The assembly of aqueous gold nanoparticles on the surface of polyurethane (PU) spheres leading to [gold nanoparticle shell]−[polyurethane core] structures is demonstrated. The assembly of gold nanoparticles on the polymer microspheres occurs through interaction of the nitrogens in the polymer with the nanoparticles. S…
Mo-substituted triple perovskite superconducting samples with the stoichiometric composition La(1.5)Nd(0.5)Ca(1)Ba(2)[Cu(1-x)Mo(x)](5)O(z), [LNCBCuMO] with x = 0.00, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05 and 0.10, have been investigated using X-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, magnetization and oxygen cont…
As a result of recent advances in molecular cloning, protein expression, and X-ray crystallography, it has now become feasible to examine complicated protein structures at high resolution. For those enzymes with multiple catalytic sites, a common theme is beginning to emerge; the existence of molecular tunnels that co…
Silica mesoporous thin films have been synthesized with a self-assembling process using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as an organic template and tetraethyl orthosilicate as the silica source. Mesoporous films with Pm 3 n cubic phase have been obtained and the films have been thermally treated in air with a progressiv…
Lattice parameters and the structural phase transition of La(0.68)(Ti(0.95),Al(0.05))O(3) have been investigated in situ in the temperature range 301-689 K by the synchrotron radiation powder diffraction (SR-PD) technique. High-angular-resolution SR-PD is confirmed to be a powerful technique for determining precise la…
Collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases catalyze the hydroxylation of -X-Pro-Gly- sequences and play an essential role in the synthesis of all collagens. They require Fe(2+), 2-oxoglutarate, molecular oxygen and ascorbate, and all vertebrate collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases are alpha(2)beta(2) tetramers. The alpha-subunits conta…
Theoretical spectra for the magneto-optical Kerr effect have been obtained for the Heusler-related alloys AuMnSb and AuMnSn, and repeated calculations are performed for the isostructural PtMnSb phase. Using experimental lattice constants, our calculations predict a Kerr rotation exceeding −1° in the 0.5–0.8 eV region…
The epitaxial requirement for the selection of metastable arogonite among the polymorphs of calcium carbonate has been studied. Under calcite‐favorable conditions, the critical epitaxial strain with aragonite‐type inorganic substrates was found to be in the range 5–7 %. The Figure shows aragonite “fuzz” grown on SrCO…
The structural and electronic properties of Eu 3+ -doped Y 2 O 3 films coated on spherical alumina nanoparticles are studied using transmission electron microscope, x-ray diffraction, and laser spectroscopic techniques. It is observed that the coated films crystallize at temperatures higher than 600°C and may be compl…
We examine the linear elasticity of the bcc and gyroid phases of block copolymer melts with self-consistent field theory (SCFT). Linear elastic moduli for single crystals are predicted by calculating the free energies for slightly deformed crystal structures. Predicted Voight and Reuss bounds for the shear modulus of…
Abstract A series of novel rod–coil diblock copolymers on the basis of mesogen‐jacketed liquid‐crystalline polymer were successfully prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization from the flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) macroinitiator. The hybrid diblock copolymers, poly{2,5‐bis[(4‐methoxyphenyl)oxycarbonyl]st…
Single-crystalline diamond nanoparticles (∼5 nm in scale) have been deposited onto molybdenum needles (with radii <100 nm), and their effects on field emission behavior were measured. Combined transmission electron microscopy observations, field emission measurements, and diamond depositions allowed for direct…
Transparent sol-gel hybrid films doped with erbium tris 8-hydroxyquinoline were prepared using methyltriethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, and phenyltrimethoxysilane as precursors. We obtain a strong 1.53-μm Er3+ luminescence with a wide full width at half-maximum and no thermal quenching. Comparison of absorption of…
The adsorption of long flexible chains from dilute solution is studied by Monte Carlo simulation of a coarse-grained bead-spring model, and the results are interpreted in terms of phenomenological theories, using both mean field approaches and scaling concepts. It is shown that the surface excess, i.e., the integral o…
A series of Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) films with tetragonal/rhombohedral multilayered structures has been grown on Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates by rf magnetron sputtering at a relative low temperature. All the films comprise 12 periodicities of Pb(Zr20Ti80)O3/Pb(Zr80Ti20)O3 in constant thickness of 40 nm, but the layer thicknes…
