The absolute photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY) of multilayers of Silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) separated by SiO2 barriers were thoroughly studied as function of the barrier thickness, excitation wavelength, and temperature. By mastering the plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition growth, we produce a series o…
In this paper we show how surface coordination chemistry can elucidate one of the reproducibility issues related to the classical synthesis of gold nanoparticles by the Turkevich method.
A superior degree of functionality in materials can be expected, if two or more operational entities are related in a cooperative form. It is obvious that, for this purpose, one is seeking materials with complex design comprising bi- or multiple functional groups complementing each other. In the current paper, it is d…
CaCO3 acts as a gasification agent during magnesiothermic reduction of graphene oxide, thus preventing the newly formed graphene from restacking. The surface area of the obtained graphene increases from 66 m(2) g(-1) to 603 m(2) g(-1) by adding CaCO3 with a high yield of ∼70% based on the carbon content in graphene ox…
We establish a quantitative analogy between polymer grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) and patchy nanoparticles (NPs). Over much of the experimentally relevant parameter space, we show that PGNPs behave quantitatively like Janus NPs, with the patch size having a universal dependence on the number of grafts and the ratio of…
Although many studies reporting the organ-level biodistribution of nanoparticles (NPs) in animals, very few have addressed the fate of NPs in organs at the cellular level. The liver appears to be the main organ for accumulation of NPs after intravenous injection. In this study, for the first time, the in vivo spatiote…
Perfectly lattice-matched magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) consisting of a Heusler alloy B2-Co2FeAl (CFA) electrode and a cation-disorder spinel (Mg-Al-O) barrier were fabricated by sputtering and plasma oxidation. We achieved a large tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratio of 228% at room temperature (RT) (398% at 5 K)…
Three types of commercially derived methylsilicone materials, Sylgard-184, Q(V)Q(H) (an MQ-based silicone containing no dimethylsiloxane, D units), and D(V)D(H) (a D-based silicone with no additives), were judiciously chosen to study the conditions under which long-lasting hydrophilicity after oxygen plasma treatment…
We report photoluminescence measurements performed on monolayer- and two-layer-MoS2 placed on two types of mixed self-assembled monolayers (mSAMs) of photoswitchable azobenzene molecules. The two mSAMs differ via the electronegative character of the azobenzene derivatives. Thin layers of a transition metal dichalcogen…
In this study, a dual-ligand polymer-lipid hybrid nanoparticle drug delivery vehicle comprised of an anti-HER2/neu peptide (AHNP) mimic with a modified HIV-1 Tat (mTAT) was established for the targeted treatment of Her2/neu-overexpressing cells. The resultant dual-ligand hybrid nanoparticles (NPs) consisted of a poly(…
Nitrogen doped carbon fluorescent quantum dots (NDCFDs) with downconversion fluorescent and upconversion fluorescence properties were prepared by an ultrasonic one-step process. The raw materials and reagents were inexpensive and easy to obtain. The effect of ultrasonic time and reaction temperature on the fluorescent…
Epidemiological data on central nervous system disorders call for a focus on the major hindrance to brain drug delivery, blood-central nervous system barriers. Otherwise, there is little chance of improving the short-term survival of patients with diseases such as glioblastoma multiforme, which is one of the brain dis…
Carbon dots (CDs) are novel bioimaging tools with fascinating fluorescence properties. We report here the development of novel CDs decorated on a silver-zinc oxide (CD-Ag@ZnO) nanocomposite (NC) consisting of highly fluorescent CDs and Ag@ZnO. The CD-Ag@ZnO NC was characterized by various analytical techniques. Our wo…
Interfaces and stress transfer between cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) dictate the mechanical properties of hierarchical cellulose materials such as neat films and nanocomposites. An interesting question that remains is how the behavior of these interfaces changes due to environmental stimuli, most notably moisture. We…
and small ring structures. This occurrence of hydrolysis (and thus formation of P-OH groups, which can be deprotonated) caused the pH decrease and explains the variation in solution pH with structure.
Magnetostructural transitions from low-temperature TiNiSi-type phases to high-temperature Ni2In-type phases had been observed in some MnCoGe-based and MnNiGe-based intermetallic systems. In this work, the TiNiSi-to-Ni2In-type magnetostructural transitions, which are associated with large changes in magnetization and l…
Lead-free (Na0.52K0.48)(Nb1−ySby)O3 (NKNSy) ferroelectric ceramics were reported to exhibit an ultrahigh electrostrain (dynamic d33* (=S/E) of 800–1100 pm/V) in a relatively low driving electric field range (1–4 kV/mm). As evidenced by in-situ synchrotron x-ray diffraction and dielectric measurements, the mechanism of…
A fluorescent C-dots/Fe <sup>3+</sup> nanosensor with an off–on switch was established for ascorbic acid detection.
This study evaluates the influence of hybridization on the flammability, thermal, dynamic mechanical and impact properties of bamboo–glass hybrid polypropylene composites. Flammability tests using cone calorimetry show that the hybrid composites performed better than the glass–polypropylene (GPP) composites, exhibitin…
Dual endosomal pH-sensitive micelles were designed and fabricated to deliver doxorubicin (DOX) for treating breast cancer based on a poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEOz)-DOX (PEOz-hyd-DOX) conjugate. PEOz-hyd-DOX was successfully synthesized by connecting DOX to PEOz via an acid cleavable hydrazone linker and self-assembl…
