Single-crystal diamond nanowires with well-controlled dimensions are fabricated in batches for nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS). All-single-crystal diamond NEM switches are demonstrated using these nanowires with high reproducibility, high controllability, repeated switching, and no sitction. Diamond switches not o…
Abstract Shape memory polyurethane (SMPU), flexibly crosslinked via a polyethyleneglycol (PEG) spacer attached to its side through an allophanate group, was tested for shape memory and compared with a linear SMPU. The new SMPU was composed of 4,4′‐methylenebis(phenylisocyanate) (MDI), poly(tetramethyleneglycol) (PTMG‐…
In this study, for the first time, the transverse vibrational model of a viscous-fluid-conveying single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) embedded in biological soft tissue is developed. Nonlocal Euler–Bernoulli beam theory has been used to investigate fluid-induced vibration of the SWCNT while visco-elastic behaviour of…
Local drug delivery methods allow for the opportunity to supply potent multispectrum antibiotics such as vancomycin hydrochloride to sites of infection, while avoiding systemic toxicity. In this work, layer-by-layer assembly of polymer multilayer films is applied to create vancomycin delivery coatings. By taking advan…
Dielectric functions of ultrafine silver nanoparticles with up to 586 atoms are computed using the density functional theory. A two-dimensional diagram method is developed to analyze the electronic transitions. It is found that the transitions can be categorized into intraband and interband. An analytical formulation…
This paper shows that customised broadband absorption of electromagnetic waves having arbitrary polarisation is possible by use of lossy cut-wire (CW) metamaterials. These useful features are confirmed by numerical simulations in which different lengths of CW pairs are combined as one periodic metamaterial unit and pl…
Abstract Large‐area, freestanding, two‐dimensionally ordered macroporous (2DOM) Ag thin films with adjustable periodic spacings and good mechanical robustness were fabricated via nanosphere lithography at the solution surface (NSLSS) combined with interfacial reactions. The obtained 2DOM Ag thin films exhibited typica…
High-performance $n$-type organic field-effect transistors were developed with ionic-liquid gates and N,N$^"$-bis(n-alkyl)-(1,7 and 1,6)-dicyanoperylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide)s single-crystals. Transport measurements show that these devices reproducibly operate in ambient atmosphere with negligible gate threshold…
The decomposition of malic acid in the presence of Mg and B was studied using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) which revealed that malic acid reacted with Mg but not B. Also, the addition of toluene to dissolve malic acid followed by subsequent drying resulted in no reaction…
We report about a combined structural and magnetometric characterization of self-assembled magnetic nanoparticle arrays. Monodisperse iron oxide nanoparticles with a diameter of 20 nm were synthesized by thermal decomposition. The nanoparticle suspension was spin-coated on Si substrates to achieve self-organized array…
he correct estimation of thermal properties of ultra-scaled CMOS and thermoelectric semiconductor devices demands for accurate phonon modeling in such structures. This work provides a detailed description of the modified valence force field (MVFF) method to obtain the phonon dispersion in zinc-blende semiconductors. T…
Abstract Thermal polymerization of DL ‐α‐lipoic acid (LPA) in bulk without any initiator proceeded easily above the melting point of LPA. The molecular weight polymer determined by GPC was high. From the 1 H NMR spectra of polymers, poly(LPA) obtained from polymerization of high purity LPA was to consist of cyclic str…
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNTs) have strong near-infrared and visible absorptivity and exceptional charge transport characteristics, rendering them highly attractive semiconductor absorbers for photovoltaic and photodetector technologies. However, these applications are limited by a poor under…
Several in vivo techniques have been developed to study and measure the uptake of CNS compounds into the brain. With these techniques, various parameters can be determined after drug administration, including the blood-to-brain influx constant (K(in)), the permeability-surface area (PS) product, and the brain uptake i…
We investigated the rare-earth transition-metal oxide series, $L{n}_{2}{\text{CuTiO}}_{6}$ ($Ln=\text{Y}$, Dy, Ho, Er, and Yb), crystallizing in the hexagonal structure with noncentrosymmetric $P{6}_{3}cm$ space group for possible occurrences of multiferroic properties. Our results show that while these compounds, exc…
In this study, an in situ chemical synthesis approach has been developed to prepare graphene-Au nanocomposites from chemically reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in aqueous media. UV-Vis absorption, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy were used to d…
Boltzmann transport theory fails near the linear band crossing of single-layer graphene and near the quadratic band crossing of bilayer graphene. We report on a numerical study which assesses the role of interband coherence in transport when the Fermi level lies near the band-crossing energy of bilayer graphene. We fi…
Generalized Einstein relation between the mobility and diffusion in conductors with a large built-in field near the thermodynamic equilibrium has been derived.
In this article, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a triple-mode single-transistor graphene amplifier utilizing a three-terminal back-gated single-layer graphene transistor. The ambipolar nature of electronic transport in graphene transistors leads to increased amplifier functionality as compared to amplifiers…
Accurate sizing of nanoparticles in biological media is important for drug delivery and biomedical imaging applications since size directly influences the nanoparticle processing and nanotoxicity in vivo. Using fluorescence single particle tracking we have succeeded for the first time in following the aggregation of d…
