Small-angle neutron scattering experiments, along with positron lifetime measurements and transmission electron microscopy observations, were performed on samples of an oxide dispersion-strengthened (ODS) Fe12Cr alloy and its non-ODS counterpart in order to characterize their nano-sized features. The nuclear and magne…
BACKGROUND: The inhibitory effect of andrographolide sodium bisulphite (ASB) on jack bean urease (JBU) and Helicobacter pylori urease (HPU) was performed to elucidate the inhibitory potency, kinetics and mechanism of inhibition in 20 mM phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, 2 mM EDTA, 25 °C. METHODS: The ammonia formations, indic…
Lipid vesicles, in particular Giant Unilamellar Vesicles (GUVs), have been increasingly important as compartments of artificial cells to reconstruct living cell-like systems in a bottom-up fashion. Here, we report shape transformations of lipid vesicles induced by polyethylene glycol-lipid conjugate (PEG lipids). Stat…
Elucidating the electron transport in semiconductors via Monte Carlo simulations: an inquiry-driven learning path for engineering undergraduates, Adorno, Dominique Persano, Pizzolato, Nicola, Fazio, Claudio
ABSTRACT This note presents an elasto-capillary model of a cantilever subject to capillary stiction during drying process of removing sacrificial layers in MEMS. Similar to the dynamic analysis of the electrostatic pull-in of electrostatic micro actuators, the cantilever beam tends to be pulled down to the substrate d…
In recent years, the distributed analytical representation and iterative technique (DARIT) based on the Jacobi iteration method (Jacobi-DARIT-field) and the Gauss-Seidel iteration method (Seidel-DARIT-field) were proposed to handle the transient electromagnetic field or the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) radiated field c…
Abstract The first X‐ray single‐crystal structure of a {FeNO}8 porphyrin complex [Co(Cp)2][Fe(TFPPBr8)(NO)], and the structure of the {FeNO}7 precursor [Fe(TFPPBr8)(NO)] are determined at 100 K. The two complexes are also characterized by FTIR and UV/Vis spectroscopy. [Fe(TFPPBr8)(NO)]− shows distinct structural featu…
C66 is one of the smallest fullerenes that is able to encapsulate more than one metal atom, as in Sc2@C66, as well as to get chlorinated at a low level, C66Cl10 or C66Cl6. We show here, with the help of computations at density functional theory level, that these two means of obtaining derivatives of non-isolated penta…
Iron-catalyzed diesel particle filters (DPFs) are widely used for particle abatement. Active catalyst particles, so-called fuel-borne catalysts (FBCs), are formed in situ, in the engine, when combusting precursors, which were premixed with the fuel. The obtained iron oxide particles catalyze soot oxidation in filters.…
Electronic transitions at interfaces between MoO3 layers and organic layers of C60, SubPc, MgPc, and nano-composite layers of SubPc:C60 and MgPc:C60 have been studied by modulated surface photovoltage (SPV) spectroscopy. For all systems, time dependent and modulated SPV signals pointed to dissociation of excitons at t…
We investigate the modification of electronic properties of single cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) molecule by an extra Co atom co-adsorbed on Au (111) surface using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), joint with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. By manipulating CoPc molecules using the STM tip to contact in…
Keratins are the major structural fibrous proteins of hair, feathers, wool, and nail. Because keratin is protein based, cheap, and biocompatible, it has found applications from tissue engineering to textile industry. Simultaneous UV‐reactive electrospinning technique is used to fabricate nanofiber scaffolds with 4‐vin…
In this paper, the high performance GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on carbon-nanotube-patterned sapphire substrate (CNPSS) by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) are demonstrated. By studying the mechanism of nucleation, we analyze the reasons of the crystal quality improvement induced by carbon na…
Stress-corrosion interactions in materials may lead to early unpredictable catastrophic failure of structural parts, which can have dramatic effects. In Zr-based bulk metallic glasses, such interactions are particularly important as these have very high yield strength, limited ductility, and are relatively susceptible…
Porous titanium samples of cp Ti grade IV were obtained by space-holder technique (50%vol of NH4HCO3, 800 MPa, 1250 oC during 2h in high vacuum), producing a good balance between stiffness and mechanical strength. The samples were coated with chitosan/45S5 bioactive glass composite by electrophoretic deposition. Homog…
Oyster shell is basically made of calcium carbonate. An attempt is made to convert calcium carbonate of oyster shell to hydroxyapatite (HA), a substitute material for bone and teeth in orthopedic and dentistry field due to their chemical and biological similarity to human hard tissue. In the present work, hydroxyapati…
The microstructure, microhardness, tensile properties, deformation and fracture behaviour of the Nd:YAG laser welded dissimilar joints between 780 and 980 MPa dual phase steels over a wide strain rate range were investigated. The welded joint shows hardening in fusion zone, supercritical and intercritical heat affecte…
In this work, poly(para‐phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) paper sheets composed of PPTA fibers and PPTA fibrids filled with highly crystalline and high ratio of length to diameter potassium titanate whiskers (PTW) were investigated in view of possible employment as reinforcement and cost‐reducing materials. The morpho…
Abstract A nickel hydroxide (Ni(OH)2)/3D‐graphene composite is used as monolithic free‐standing electrode for enzymeless electrochemical detection of glucose. Ni(OH)2 nanoflakes are synthesized by using a simple solution growth procedure on 3D‐graphene foam which was grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The pore…
A liquid sizing agent containing multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was prepared for carbon fiber (CF) reinforced methylphenylsilicone resin (MPSR) composite applications. In order to improve the dispersion of MWCNTs in the sizing agent and interfacial adhesion between CF and MPSR, MWCNTs and CF were functioned by th…
