Nanoscale islands of Cu2O have been synthesized on single-crystal SrTiO3 (100) substrates using oxygen plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). Island growth location has been controlled by using an ex situ Ga+ focused ion beam (FIB) to modify the growth surface in discrete locations prior to island synthesis. Th…

Biocomposite thin films assembled on colloidal particles by means of layer-by-layer adsorption have been suggested as drug carriers and diagnostic devices. Protamine (PRM)/dextransulfate (DXS) and protamine/bovine serum albumine (BSA) multilayers were fabricated on colloidal silica and subsequently investigated by mea…

The first singlet excited state lifetimes (τs) of asymmetric pentaazadentate porphyrin-like complexes, [(R-APPC)M]Cln, were measured by the time-correlated single photon counting method. Fluorescent decays of the first singlet excited state for all [(R-APPC)M]Cln were found to be shorter than 0.5ns. The intersystem cr…

This article describes a novel biomimetic strategy for the synthesis of CaCO 3 crystals with different structures by a supported liquid membrane containing a mobile carrier, and first reports the abnormal structure conversion of CaCO 3 from calcite to vaterite. Furthermore, we found that the sub-micron-sphere vaterite…

A novel poly(vinyl chloride)-based polymer ( 1 ) containing Mo−Mo bonds along the backbone was prepared by the reaction of carboxylated PVC (ca. 1.8 wt % −COOH) with (HOCH 2 CH 2 Cp) 2 Mo 2 (CO) 6 . When irradiated with visible light, this polymer photodegrades, even in the absence of oxygen. Infrared spectroscopic an…

[structure: see text] Novel porphyrin perylene dyad and triad dyes have been prepared by the coupling of aminophenyltrisphenylporphyrin and tetraphenoxy-substituted perylenetetracarboxylic acid bisanhydrides in a one-step synthesis. Fluorescence spectra of these compounds reveal features that are attributable to emiss…

UV-ozone cleaning prior to metal deposition of either e-beam Pt contacts or sputtered W contacts on n-type single-crystal ZnO is found to significantly improve their rectifying characteristics. Pt contacts deposited directly on the as-received ZnO surface are Ohmic but show rectifying behavior with ozone cleaning. The…

A novel functionally PEGylated quantum dot (QD) was prepared by a coprecipitation method in the presence of the biotin-PEG/polyamine block copolymer. When CdCl2 and Na2S were mixed in aqueous media in the presence of the biotin-PEG-b-poly(2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) [biotin-PEG/PAMA], a CdS QD with a size…

4-Chlorobenzoate:CoA ligase (CBAL) is a member of a family of adenylate-forming enzymes that catalyze two-step adenylation and thioester-forming reactions. In previous studies, we have provided structural evidence that members of this enzyme family (exemplified by acetyl-CoA synthetase) use a large domain rotation to…

The role of polar nanoregions in relaxor ferroelectrics of lead magnesium niobate type is investigated in the framework of the spherical random bond--random-field model. Assuming that the interaction between polar nanoregions is modified by a homogeneous lattice stress, an expression for the macroscopic electrostricti…

We investigate the reaction between selenosulfate and (noncomplexed) Cd ions in aqueous solution to form CdSe. The resulting precipitate, which is initially white (mainly CdSO 3 ), turns yellow and finally orange. The initial precipitate is CdSO 3, which gradually reacts with selenosulfate to give CdSe. The CdSe forms…
