Utilizing solar energy for environmental and energy remediations based on photocatalytic hydrogen (H2) generation and water cleaning poses great challenges due to inadequate visible-light power conversion, high recombination rate, and intermittent availability of solar energy. Here, we report an energy-harvesting tech…
CH3NH3PbI3 was found to exhibit inverse solubility at high temperatures in γ-butyrolactone. Making use of this unusual, so far unreported phenomenon, we present a facile method for the growth of freestanding crystals of CH3NH3PbI3 from solution without addition of any capping agents or seed particles. Large, strongly…
Organic electrochemical transistors are integrated on depth probes to achieve localized electrical stimulation of neurons. The probes feature a mechanical delamination process which leaves only a 4 μm thick film with embedded transistors inside the brain. This considerably reduces probe invasiveness and correspondingl…
This review paper presents the current state of the art on maleic acid synthesis from biomass-derived chemicals over homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysts. It is based on the most recent publications on the topic, which are discussed in details with respect to the observed catalytic performances. The recent developme…
The functionalization and polymerization of biobased monocyclic terpenes and their derivatives for the synthesis of sustainable polymers is described, especially in view of the synthetic routes and properties of the obtained macromolecular architectures. Comparison of these procedures and the obtained materials with "…
We report the synthesis and anode application for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) of WS2 nanowires (WS2 NWs). WS2 NWs with very thin diameter of ≈25 nm and expanded interlayer spacing of 0.83 nm were prepared by using a facile solvothermal method followed by a heat treatment. The as-prepared WS2 NWs were evaluated as anod…
Herein, we report the preparation of Pongam seed shells-derived activated carbon and cobalt oxide (∼2-10 nm) nanocomposite (PSAC/Co3O4) by using a general and facile synthesis strategy. The as-synthesized PSAC/Co3O4 samples were characterized by a variety of physicochemical techniques. The PSAC/Co3O4-modified electrod…
Acetylene, an important petrochemical raw material, is very difficult to store safely under compression because of its highly explosive nature. Here we present a porous metal-organic framework named FJI-H8, with both suitable pore space and rich open metal sites, for efficient storage of acetylene under ambient condit…
High efficiency perovskite solar cells were fabricated reproducibly via Lewis base adduct of lead(II) iodide. PbI2 was dissolved in N,N-dimethyformamide with equimolar N,N-dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and CH3NH3I. Stretching vibration of S═O appeared at 1045 cm(-1) for bare DMSO, which was shifted to 1020 and 1015 cm(-1)…
The microscopic dynamics of $CsH_2PO_4$ , with two distinct hydrogen bond lengths, are studied by static nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR. The proton dynamics of the two crystallographically inequivalent hydrogen sites were discussed in terms of the $^1H$ NMR and $^1H$ MAS NMR spectr…
δ13C values in non-irradiated natural graphite were measured. The measurements were carried out using an elemental analyzer combined with stable isotope ratio mass spectrometer (EA-IRMS). The samples were prepared with ground and non-ground graphite, the part of which was mixed with Mg (ClO4)2. The best combustion of…
A new diamine monomer 4-((4-dodecyloxy)phenyl)-2,6-di((4-amino)phenyl)pyridine (DPDAPP) was successfully synthesised and polymerised with 4,4ʹ-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) and diamine 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP) via the conventional two-step chemical imidisation method to p…
Epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide (SiC) can easily be grown by thermal decomposition. A well-defined epitaxial interface between graphene and substrate is formed, especially when the silicon face of hexagonal polytypes is employed. It is found that as-grown monolayer graphene with interfacial buffer layer provides…
Nanocrystalline Si (nc-Si) with mean size of about 4 nm embedded in amorphous SiN film was prepared by annealing Si-rich amorphous SiN film. The film compositions and microstructures were revealed by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. It was found the room tempe…
The magnetic properties of grain-oriented electrical sheets were measured under compressive stress applied in the thickness direction using a single-sheet tester with two H-coils. This apparatus can apply uniform stress throughout the specimens. Decreases in both the permeability and magnetic losse s are observed in t…
Sugar cane, renewable fiber resources, were used for roof tile production. Urea formaldehyde, phenol formaldehyde and isocyanate resin were used as binders in this study. Roof tile specimens with 400 mm wide, 400 mm long and 5 mm thick were prepared by compression molding. Physical and mechanical properties of the spe…
For the development of new strategies for reduction of energy losses and audible noise of transformer cores, the assessment of the induction distribution is essential. The results confirm that the core represents a strongly inhomogeneous 3-dimensional magnetization system. For a full understanding of distributions, me…
Proper selection of appropriate quenching media can result in improved mechanical properties of pure commercial aluminum after solution heat treatment. This paper presents the effect of heat extraction by groundnut, melon, palm kernel, shea butter and palm oils on the mechanical properties of various samples of pure c…
Protein complexes are essential components in many cellular processes. In this study, a procedure to determine the protein-complex structure from a partial molecular-replacement (MR) solution is demonstrated using a direct-method-aided dual-space iterative phasing and model-building program suite, IPCAS (Iterative Pro…
Most iron castings retain their as cast surfaces because of their geometric complexity and to minimise the machining costs. However, the mechanical properties that are documented in standards (i.e. ASTM) are tested on fully machined test bars. Therefore, the effect of the as cast surface and subsurface features (commo…
