High-spin molecules have been proposed as candidates for the storage of information at the molecular level. The electronic structure of two complex magnetic molecular systems, Mn 10 and Mn 19, is characterized by means of a computational study based on density functional theory. All the exchange interactions in the re…
This paper presents the use of the multiobjective particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique for the identification of Jiles-Atherton model parameters. This approach, implemented for the first time in order to solve this kind of problem, is tested for two magnetic materials: NO 3% SiFe and NiFe 20-80. The results are…
Porous titania networks containing gold nanoparticles have been synthesized and tested in photocatalytic applications. The porous structure was controlled using a templating technique, while a range of gold concentrations and a variety of routes were investigated to incorporate the gold nanoparticles. The influence of…
Abstract New method of synthesis of water‐soluble polymer‐drug conjugates, exhibiting remarkable anticancer activity in mice models, has been developed. In the conjugates, an anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) is attached to a polymer carrier based on N ‐(2‐hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymer via a hydrolytic…
We present a fast and efficient tight-binding (TB) method for simulating scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging of adsorbate molecules on ultrathin insulating films. Due to the electronic decoupling of the molecule from the metal surface caused by the presence of the insulating overlayer, the STM images of the fr…
We report for the first time on the controlled hydrothermal synthesis of barium titanate nanostructures using Na 2 Ti 3 O 7 nanotubes and nanowires as synthetic precursors. A variety of nanostructured BaTiO 3 have been prepared, exhibiting either simple shapes of nanowires, nanosheets, nanocubes, and hexagonal nanopar…
Angle-resolved photoemission spectra of a monolayer of Yb on W(110) reveal energy splittings and dispersion of the Yb 4f states that are obviously due to their hybridization with W-derived valence bands. These effects occur at well defined points of the surface Brillouin zone although a smearing over reciprocal space…
The commensurate phase of multiferroic ${\text{HoMn}}_{2}{\text{O}}_{5}$ was studied by x-ray magnetic scattering, both off-resonance and in resonant conditions at the $\text{Ho}\text{ }{L}_{3}$ edge. Below 40 K, magnetic ordering at the Ho sites is induced by the main Mn magnetic order parameter, and its temperature…
This paper describes the preparation of superhydrophobic surfaces that have been selectively patterned with circular hydrophilic domains. These materials mimicked the back of the stenocara beetle and collected drops of water if exposed to mist or fog. Under the effect of gravity, the drops dewetted from the hydrophili…
A facile synthesis route for preparing SBA-15 silica of platelet shape and very short mesochannels (150−350 nm) was developed by introducing a small amount of Zr(IV) ions in the synthesis solution. The synthesis route can be easily extended to prepare platelet SBA-15 materials with various organic functional groups up…
We characterize experimentally a compact dielectric particle that can be used to design very low-loss artificial electromagnetic materials (metamaterials). Focusing on magnetic media, we show that the particle can behave almost identically to the well-known split-ring resonators (SRRs) widely used in present designs,…
The intragrain pinning in high-$T_c$ superconductor compounds Y$_{1-x}$RE$_{x}$Ba$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-δ}$ with low concentration of RE (La, Ce, Pr) was investigated. Magnetic and transport measurements reveal that the pinning is maximal for the concentration of heterovalent RE such that the average distance between the…
The difference in colour between emerald (Be3Si6Al2O18:Cr3+, green) and the Cr3+-doped spinel MgAl2O4 (red) is striking, considering that in both systems colour is due to CrO69- complexes with D3 symmetry and the measured Cr3+-O2- distance is practically the same (1.98 and 1.97 angstroms, respectively). By means of de…
Using a continuum model, expressions for the elastic energy, defect energy, structure entropy, and mixing entropy of carbon nanocones are proposed analytically. The optimal conformation of carbon nanocones is studied by imposing minimization of free energy and analyzing the effects that the buckling of a nanocone's wa…
In this paper we derive the general equilibrium equations of a polymer chain with a noncircular cross section by the variation of the free energy functional. From the equilibrium equation of the elastic ribbon we derive analytically the equilibrium conformations both of the helical ribbons and the twisted ribbons. We…
The optical properties of bulk $λ/2$ GaN microcavities working in the strong light-matter coupling regime are investigated using angle-dependent reflectivity and photoluminescence at 5 K and 300 K. The structures have an Al$_{0.2}$Ga$_{0.8}$N/AlN distributed Bragg reflector as the bottom mirror and either an aluminium…
Self-organizable dendronized helical polymers provide a suitable architecture for constructing molecular nanomachines capable of expressing their motions at macroscopic length scales. Nanomechanical function is demonstrated by a library of self-organized helical dendronized cis-transoidal polyphenylacetylenes ( cis-PP…
We report a general and facile approach for the fabrication of a new class of monodispersed, single-component and thick-walled polymer nanocapsules via the single-step assembly of macromolecules in solid core/mesoporous shell (SC/MS) silica particle templates, followed by cross-linking of the macromolecules and remova…
Our understanding of the biologic effects (including toxicity) of nanomaterials is incomplete. In vivo animal studies remain the gold standard; however, widespread testing remains impractical, and the development of in vitro assays that correlate with in vivo activity has proven challenging. Here, we demonstrate the f…
Magnesium-aluminum-chloride-layered double hydroxides (MgAl-Cl-LDHs) intercalated with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) were prepared for the first time by the coprecipitation method and then characterized by XRD, elemental analysis, FTIR, SEM, and TEM. MgAl-LDH was studied as the drug carrier for LMWH, a widely us…
