We report the electronic band structure and optical parameters of X-Phosphides (X=B, Al, Ga, In) by first-principles technique based on a new approximation known as modified Becke—Johnson (mBJ). This potential is considered more accurate in elaborating excited states properties of insulators and semiconductors as comp…
The magnetization, the electrical resistivity, the magnetoresistance, and the Hall resistivity of Ni50Mn35In15 − x Si x (x = 1.0, 3.0, 4.0) Heusler alloys are studied at T = 80-320 K. The martensitic transformation in these alloys occurs at T = 220–280 K from the high-temperature ferromagnetic austenite phase into the…
We have reported new magnetic and optical properties of Mn 2 O 3 nanostructures. The nanostructures have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method combined with the adjustment of pH values in the reaction system. The particular characteristics of the nanostructures have been analyzed by employing X-Ray diffraction (…
The selective removal of vanillin in bioconversion by forming 1:2 co-crystals of phenazine–vanillin may serve as a new technology. Initial solvent screening experiments of vanillin, phenazine, and the co-crystals show that co-crystallization of phenazine and vanillin can be formed in toluene and, later, regenerated in…
This paper experimentally investigates the effects of microhole eccentricity on the slip lengths of Stokes flow in microchannels with the bottom wall made of microhole arrays. The wettability of such microhole structures fabricated by the replica molding of polydimethylsiloxane is first analyzed measuring both static…
Abstract Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are fascinating materials, with promising potential in a range of applications as actively moving polymers, which can undergo significant macroscopic deformation in a predefined manner between/among shapes in the presence of an appropriate stimulus. This work aims to present a sys…
The size control of gold nanoparticles synthesized in surfactant free water with a continuous flow mode was elucidated and used to produce higher concentration (3 mM) of stabilized gold nanoparticles. The originality of the synthesis was to finely modulate the initial pH of the reducing agent instead of the gold precu…
Microscopists demand better performance from their electron microscopes with every new instrument. With the advancement of new instrument technologies, better images, higher resolution, more precise analysis, and faster throughput are all benefits that are expected of expensive purchases. Still, in many cases, a well-…
An increase in the broad usage of Al₂O₃ nanoparticles (ANPs) in the food and agricultural sectors may produce rare hazards for human health. The objective of this study was to assess the acute toxicity of ANPs in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) in vitro. Cell viability, cellular uptake, morphology, and gene expre…
In order to reduce the volume and the radiotoxicity of the nuclear waste coming from the operation of existing pressurized water reactors, accelerator-driven systems (ADSs) have been envisioned. The Lead-Cooled (Pb) European Facility for Industrial-Scale Transmutation (EFIT) (Pb-EFIT) plant is the first ADS design tha…
Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanocrystals that possess unique optical properties including broad-range excitation, size-tunable narrow emission spectra and high photostability, giving them considerable value in various biomedical applications. The size and composition of QDs can be varied to obtain the desired…
Interest in the electromagnetic properties of loop structures has surged with the recent appearance of split-ring resonator meta-materials (SRRs) and nano-antennas. Understanding the resonances, anti-resonances, and harmonics of these loops is key to understanding their response to a wide range of excitation wavelengt…
Poly-(R)-3-hydroxybutyrates (PHB), linear polymers of (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate, are components of all biological cells in which short polymers (<200 monomer residues) are covalently attached to certain proteins and/or noncovalently associated with polyphosphates - inorganic polyphosphate (polyP), RNA, and DNA. The low co…
Abstract The detection of TNT and related nitroaromatic compounds in seawater is of great interest. Electrochemical techniques can be applied for detection purposes since nitroaromatic compounds contain easily reducible nitro groups. In this study, we investigate the performance of thermally reduced graphenes prepared…
Near-infrared (NIR) to NIR upconversion emission is investigated in Tm3+/Yb3+/Li+ triply doped Y2O3 nanocrystals. Li+ ions doped in Y2O3:Tm3+/Yb3+ nanocrystals can greatly enhance the NIR upconversion emission intensity of Tm3+ ions. The abnormal shift of the (222) diffraction peak position determined from x-ray diffr…
Tracking particles with arbitrary size distribution to obtain simultaneously reliable positions and sizes from 2D or 3D (confocal) images.
We measure the room temperature thermal conductance of interfaces between an archetypal organic semiconductor copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and several metals (aluminum, gold, magnesium, and silver) using the 3−ω method. The measured thermal boundary conductance (TBC) scales with bonding strength at the CuPc-metal inte…
Abstract This study looks at the influence of extrusion parameters such as screw speed, feed rate and barrel temperature on the nanocomposite structure (size of agglomerates, level of intercalation and exfoliation) and its consequences on final mechanical properties. Nanocomposites of polypropylene, maleated polypropy…
We have recently predicted and subsequently verified experimentally by specific heat measurements that EuTiO3 undergoes a structural phase transition at elevated temperature T S = 282 K. The origin of the phase transition has been attributed to the softening of a transverse acoustic mode stemming from an oxygen octahe…
An eco-friendly approach to the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by extracellular components of Streptomyces albogriseolus has been reported. The isolated actinobacteria were genotypically identified by 16S rRNA sequencing analysis, and the morphology was observed by high-resolution scanning electron microsco…
