In the present study, densely dispersed silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were rapidly green synthesized in the presence of Rumex dentatus aqueous extract, followed by UV-irradiation reduction. The Ag NPs were characterized using UV-vis spectroscopy, FTIR, XRD, and TEM. Then, the Ag NPs were incorporated into interpenetra…
Carbon nanomembranes (CNMs) prepared from aromatic self-assembled monolayers constitute a recently developed class of 2D materials. They are made by a combination of self-assembly, radiation-induced cross-linking and the detachment of the cross-linked SAM from its substrate. CNMs can be deposited on arbitrary substrat…
Absorption based microscopy measurements are emerging as important tools for studying nanomaterials. This review discusses the three most common techniques for performing these experiments: transient absorption microscopy, photothermal heterodyne imaging, and spatial modulation spectroscopy. The focus is on the applic…
We develop a gradient phase discontinuities ultrathin planar metasurface based on chiral branched gammadion structure (CBGS) that provides extreme control of electromagnetic wavefronts across single-sheet design. The introduction of the branch can provide antiparallel magnetic moment, which tunes the chirality of the…
The mineral tetrahedrite Cu$_{12}$Sb$_{4}$S$_{13}$ exhibits a first-order metal--insulator transition (MIT) at $T_{\rm MI}$ = 85 K and ambient pressure. We measured the $^{63}$Cu-NMR at ambient pressure and the resistivity and magnetic susceptibility at high pressures. $^{63}$Cu-NMR results indicate a nonmagnetic insu…
Hemilabile ligands, which have one donor that can reversibly bind to a metal, are widely used in transition-metal catalysts to create open coordination sites. This change in coordination at the metal can also cause spin-state changes. Here, we explore a cobalt(I) system that is poised on the brink of hemilability and…
Unique dispersion states of nanoparticles in polymeric matrices have the potential to create composites with enhanced mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. The present work aims to determine the state of dispersion from the melt-state rheological behavior of nanocomposites based on carbon nanotube and graphe…
For the evaluation of new magnesium-based alloys, many different in vitro and in vivo methods are used. It was the aim of the current study to perform in vitro and in vivo corrosion studies of the new alloy Mg-La-Nd-Zr for its evaluation as a promising new degradable material and to compare commonly used evaluation me…
Abstract We report a renewable display platform based on bipolar electrochemistry that uses bipolar electrochromic electrode (BP‐EC‐E) arrays for high‐throughput screening applications. Prussian blue (or another electrochromic material) is electrodeposited on one end of the bipolar electrode (BPE) as the signal report…
This study mainly investigated the impact of small amounts of yttrium (Y: 0.1–1.5 wt%) on in vitro corrosion behavior of Mg‐5Zn bioimplant alloy in simulated body fluid. Optical and scanning electron microcopies, energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction analysis were used to assess the microstructure…
Metallic Zn thin films were electrodeposited on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrates and oxidized under air by conventional radiant and microwave post-annealing methods to obtain ZnO thin film electrodes. The temperature of each post-annealing method was varied systematically and the photoelectrochemical (P…
It was shown that topography and surface chemistry of materials influence cell behaviors. In this study, the effects of chemistry and topography of scaffold surface on adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of Wharton's Jelly mesenchymal (WJMSCs) stem cells into motor neurons were investigated. WJMSCs were cultiv…
Peptide therapeutics hold great promise for the treatment of cancer due to low toxicity, high specificity, and ease of synthesis and modification. However, the unfavorable pharmacokinetic parameters strictly limit their therapeutic efficacy and clinical translation. Here, we tailor-designed an amphiphilic chimeric pep…
ABSTRACT Rubber nanocomposites containing one type of nanofiller are common and are widely established in the research field. In this study, nitrile rubber (NBR) based ternary nanocomposites containing modified silicate (Cloisite 30B) and also nano‐calcium carbonate (nano‐CaCO3) were prepared using a laboratory intern…
Type 1 pili are filamentous protein assemblies on the surface of Gram-negative bacteria that mediate adhesion to host cells during the infection process. The molecular structure of type 1 pili remains elusive on the atomic scale owing to their insolubility and noncrystallinity. Herein we describe an approach for hybri…
The first example of Raman analysis of various surfaces using hollow-silver (h-Ag) and hollow-gold (h-Au) nanoparticles protected by the silica layer has been reported. Synthesized h-Ag@SiO 2 and h-Au@SiO 2 nanoparticles are efficient electromagnetic resonators, which locally enhance the electric field of the incident…
Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly on nano- and microparticles is of interest for a range of applications, including catalysis, optics, sensors, and drug delivery. One current limitation is the standard use of manual, centrifugation-based (pellet/resuspension) methods to perform the layering steps, which can make scalable,…
In this study, the dynamic viscoelastic properties of three structurally modified poly(lactic acid) (PLA) samples processed through reactive extrusion (REX) were analyzed. While classical chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques exhibited limited sensitivity to the presence of topological changes, rheological meas…
It is important to understand the conformational changes of both the crystalline and the noncrystalline domains of Bombyx mori silk fibroin as they are stretched from soluble Silk I to the mature Silk II fiber, to be able to design man-made strong and tough silk fibers. Here, the Ser, Tyr, and Ala Cβ of silk fibroin w…
