Nanocomposites of encapsulated silica nanoparticles were prepared by in situ emulsion polymerization of acrylate monomers. The synthesized material showed good uniformity and dispersion of the inorganic components in the base polymer, which enhances the properties of the nanocomposite material. A nonionic surfactant w…
In order to search a gate dielectric with high permittivity on hydrogenated-diamond (H-diamond), LaAlO3 films with thin Al2O3 buffer layers are fabricated on the H-diamond epilayers by sputtering-deposition (SD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD) techniques, respectively. Interfacial band configuration and electrical p…
Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber membranes functionalized with calix[8]arenes (C[8]) were successfully prepared by electrospinning of PAN solutions with addition of various calixarenes. Uniform electrospun C[8]/PAN nanofibers were obtained by incorporating three types of calix[8]arenes into the PAN matrix and charact…
Spin doctor: A mononuclear ferric complex [Fe(H-5-Br-thsa)(5-Br-thsa)]⋅H2O (1) (H2-5-Br-thsa = 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamide) was synthesized and its magnetic properties and structure were investigated by DFT calculations. This complex shows unprecedented reversible, six/five-step spin-crossover…
Organic nonlinear optical materials combining high luminescence quantum yields and large two-photon absorption cross-sections are attractive for both fundamental research and practical applications, such as up-converted lasers and two-photon fluorescence microscopy. Herein, we reported a series of conjugated dendrimer…
Next-generation electrochemical energy storage for integrated microsystems and consumer electronic devices requires novel electrode materials with engineered architectures to meet the requirements of high performance, low cost, and robustness. However, conventional electrode fabrication processes such as doctor bladin…
Supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) have been proposed for applications necessitating photon emitting properties; however, two critical characteristics, facile tunability and high emission quantum yields, have yet to be demonstrated on SCC platforms. Herein, a series of functionalized D2h [D2A2] rhomboids (D…
Metallic nanoparticles (NPs) appear as promising materials to be used in biomedicine, as efficient catalysts and electrocatalysts, and as active elements in electronic and sensing devices. The most common strategy to protect these NPs is by using thiolate self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), a strategy that has proved to…
Colloidal plasmonics is a rapidly developing field, with applications of metal nanoparticles that range from biosensing to photocatalysis. Historically, Au- or Ag-only nanoparticles have been investigated for these uses. However, there is emerging interest in multifunctional plasmonic colloids as well as a desire to e…
This study has focused on the ionic conductivity (of impurities) and the changes in relaxation behavior of semicrystalline poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) around its melting temperature of the crystalline regions. Our main aim was to understand the implications of nucleation and growth of spherulitic structures on the gene…
We predict the contribution of eddy currents to power losses in polycrystalline Mn-Zn ferrites and apply it to experimental results obtained on a broad frequency range in different commercial materials and differently sized ring samples. It is verified by theory and experiment that the eddy currents can, in sufficient…
Cellulose, being the major cell wall component and the most abundant organic matter, produced by living organisms, is not uniformly distributed within plant tissues. There are numerous cells, like the parenchyma ones, which even at maturity have thin cell wall. Thick cell walls are characteristic for the tissues with…
Common dispersion methods such as ultrasonic sonication, planetary centrifugal mixing and magnetic dispersion have been used extensively to achieve moderate exfoliation of nanoparticles in polymer matrix. In this study, the effect of adding three roll milling to these three dispersion methods for nanoclay dispersion i…
Size‐controlled porous silicon‐based nanoparticles are prepared by pulsed electrochemical etching of single crystal silicon wafers, followed by ultrasonic fracture of the freestanding porous layer. When high‐current density pulses are applied periodically during the porous layer etching process, a porous multilayer re…
We consider magnetic properties of a long, thin-walled ferromagnetic nanotube. We assume that the tube consists of isotropic homogeneous magnet whose spins interact via the exchange energy, the dipole-dipole interaction energy, and also interact with an external field via Zeeman energy. Possible stable states are the…
Being the main structural component in plants, cellulose is by far the most abundant organic polymer on earth. The highest quantity of cellulose is found in the secondary walls of higher plants, such as wood, were the polymer is incorporated in a matrix of lignin and shorter heteropolysaccharides such as hemicellulose…
A combination of vertical polyaniline (PANI) nanowire arrays and nitrogen plasma etched carbon fiber cloths (eCFC) was fabricated to create 3D nanostructured PANI/eCFC composites. The small size of the highly ordered PANI nanowires can greatly reduce the scale of the diffusion length, allowing for the improved utiliza…
We assess the performance of a recently proposed renormalized adiabatic local density approximation (rALDA) for \textit{ab initio} calculations of electronic correlation energies in solids and molecules. The method is an extension of the random phase approximation (RPA) derived from time-dependent density functional t…
GeTe is a narrow-band gap semiconductor, where Ge vacancies generate free charge carriers, holes, forming a self-dopant degenerate system with p-type conductivity, and serves as a base for high-performance multicomponent thermoelectric materials. There is a significant discrepancy between the electronic and thermal tr…
An inline chalcogenide phase-change radio-frequency (RF) switch using germanium telluride and driven by an integrated, electrically isolated thin-film heater for thermal actuation has been fabricated. A voltage pulse applied to the heater terminals was used to transition the phase-change material between the crystalli…
