Metal-promoted oxidation reactions are a major cause of food quality deterioration. Active packaging offers novel approaches to controlling such oxidation for the purpose of extending shelf life. Herein, we report modification of the surface of polyethylene (PE) films to possess metal chelating activity. Metal chelati…
Magnetoelectric (ME) properties were investigated for an XY-like spin glass (SG) system, Ni{x}Mn{1-x}TiO{3} with an ilmenite structure. The ME effect is usually observed in systems with peculiar couplings between a crystal lattice and a magnetic order. Nonetheless, we found an antisymmetric ME effect with nonzero ME t…
An effective method was developed for synthesizing magnetite/polymer colloidal composite microspheres with controllable variations in size and shape of the nanostructures and desirable interfacial chemical functionalities, using surfactant-free seeded emulsion polymerization with magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) colloidal nanocr…
Organic cosolvent systems have been evaluated for their potential and increasing use for freeze drying of solutions to produce stabilized powders of marketed pharmaceutical products. The formulations most often investigated include tert-butanol (TBA) + water mixtures. These organic cosolvent systems present many inter…
In this paper, we describe our development of an electrochemical surface plasmon resonance (EC-SPR) measurement device based on a bottom-filled gold nanohole array. The polymer based gold nanohole array was fabricated with a UV nanoimprint technique and electron beam gold deposition. Direct reflection mode measurement…
The equilibrium conductance of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 (LAO/STO)-heterointerfaces was investigated at high temperatures (950 K-1100 K) as a function of ambient oxygen partial pressure (pO2). Metallic LAO/STO-interfaces were obtained for LAO grown on STO single crystals as well as on STO-buffered (La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O3 substrates. For…
Silver nanoparticle films were deposited by sputtering at room temperature and were annealed while monitoring by real time spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE). The nanoparticle dielectric functions (0.75 eV–6.5 eV) obtained by SE were modeled using Lorentz and generalized oscillators for the nanoparticle plasmon polariton…
Iron oxidation state and coordination geometry have been determined by Fe K-edge X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) for three sets of silicate glasses of peralkaline rhyolitic composition with different peralkalinity values. These compositions were chosen to investigate the effect of alkali content (and o…
Polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films were prepared by photochemical polymerisation with a series of (meth)acrylate monomers. The effects of monomer structure on the morphology of polymer networks in the PDLC films were studied. The acrylate monomers without sidegroup chain formed uniform polymer networks. The…
A unique class of oligothiophene-based organogelator bearing two crown ethers at both ends was synthesized. This compound could gelatinize several organic solvents, forming one-dimensional fibrous aggregates. From the observation of circular dichroism, it was confirmed that the helical handedness of the fibrous assemb…
Ion imaging is a powerful methodology to assess fundamental biological processes in live cells. The limited efficiency of some ion-sensing probes and their fast leakage from cells are important restrictions to this approach. In this study, we present a novel strategy based on the use of dendrimer nanoparticles to obta…
Sulfonated polymers are of interest as semipermeable ion-selective materials for membrane applications and as conductive materials for antistatic, electrode, and fuel cell applications. An innovative “one-pot” synthesis route was developed to produce relatively flexible systems containing a cross-linked polyacrylate e…
Colloidal III-V semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots [NQDs] have attracted interest because they have reduced toxicity compared with II-VI compounds. However, the study and application of III-V semiconductor nanocrystals are limited by difficulties in their synthesis. In particular, it is difficult to control nuclea…
Pure and silver doped nanoparticles of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) was prepared using novel, modified sol–gel method. The samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, N 2 adsorption measurement, atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), UV–vis spectroscopy (UV–vis). The antibacterial ac…
The objective of the study was to investigate physical and mechanical properties of experimental particleboard panels manufactured from oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) biomass without using any adhesives. Different parts of oil palm, including the core and mid sections of trunks, fronds, bark, and leaves, were used to ma…
Controlling and engineering chemical structures are the most important scientific challenges in material science. Precipitation patterns from ions or nanoparticles are promising candidates for designing bulk structure for catalysis, energy production, storage, and electronics. There are only a few procedures and techn…
We have synthesized citric-acid-stabilized magnetic nanoparticles with very good magnetization behavior and relatively low contribution from shape and surface magnetic anisotropies. In this work, we report also on a simple adsorption of doxorubicin onto the surface of these nanoferrites that can provide a facile prepa…
A cylindrical cloak is designed to control the bending waves propagating in isotropic thin plates. This is achieved through homogenization of a multiply perforated coating of isotropic homogeneous elastic material, which greatly simplifies the design of the multilayered cloak we proposed [Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 024301…
The native stem cell niche is a dynamic and complex microenvironment. Recapitulating this niche is a critical focus within the fields of stem cell biology, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine and requires the development of well-defined, tunable materials. Recent biomaterial design strategies seek to create…
We experimentally demonstrated a light-driven reconfigurable near perfect plasmonic absorber working at dual frequencies in infrared range. By employing nanodisks with different sizes in certain arrangement, near perfect absorption of incident electromagnetic waves can be achieved for different working frequencies due…
