The electron dynamics of gold nanorods were systematically studied by using femtosecond transient absorption experiments. Two different excitation wavelengths (400 and 800 nm) have been used as the excitation sources to selectively excite transverse and longitudinal modes. The transient absorption spectra were found t…

We describe the fabrication of polymer nanofibers with entrapped molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) nanoparticles and study their possible use in a fluorescence-based biosensor application. The MIP was imprinted with the fluorescent amino acid derivative dansyl-L-phenylalanine. Poly(vinyl alcohol) was used as a suppo…

The distinctive properties of graphene sheets may be significantly influenced by the presence of corrugation structures. Our understanding of these graphene structures has been limited to the mesoscopic scale. Here we characterize angstrom-scale periodic buckling structures in free-standing graphene bilayers produced…

Abstract We examined ring‐opening polymerizations (ROPs) of ε‐caprolactone in toluene at 25–50 °C catalyzed by perfluoroalkanesulfonates and perfluoroalkanesulfonimides as organic catalysts. The ROPs proceeded quickly using these super Brönsted acids as catalysts. We synthesized poly(ε‐caprolactone)s ( M n = 4.8 × 10…

We propose a method for adaptive waveguide bends using homogeneous, nonmagnetic, and isotropic materials, which simplifies the parameters of the bends to the utmost extent. The proposed bend has an adaptive and compact shape because of all the flat boundaries. The nonmagnetic property is realized by selecting OB'/OC =…
