Abstract Leicht, günstig, effizient : Co 3 O 4 ‐Nanostrukturen (siehe Bild) in mesoporösem Siliciumoxid sind die ersten nanometergroßen Mehrelektronenkatalysatoren mit einem Übergangsmetalloxid der ersten Periode, die Wasser unter Bildung von Sauerstoff effizient spalten. Die sehr große Oberfläche der Nanostabbündel t…
Actinide dioxides derived from the ${A\text{O}}_{2}$ fluorite lattice are of high technological relevance due to their application in nuclear reactor fuels. In this paper we use density functional theory calculations to study the oxidation of uranium, neptunium and plutonium dioxides, ${A\text{O}}_{2}$ ($A=\text{U}$,…
Realistic dislocation network topologies were generated by relaxing an initially pinning point free dislocation loop structure using three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics simulations. Traction-free finite-sized samples were used. Subsequently, these equilibrated structures were subjected to tensile loading a…
Silver nanoparticles are known to have bactericidal effects. A new generation of dressings incorporating antimicrobial agents like silver nanoparticles is being formulated to reduce or prevent infections. The particles can be incorporated in materials and cloth rendering them sterile. Recently, it was found that aqueo…
Abstract There is increased demand for nanoparticles with a high fluorescence yield that have the desired excitation wavelength, surface functionalization, and particle size to act as biological probes. Here, a simple, rapid, and robust method, Flash NanoPrecipitation (FNP), to produce such fluorescent nanoparticles i…
The effects of isoelectronic replacement of a neutral nitrogen donor atom by an anionic carbon atom in terpyridine ruthenium(II) complexes on the electronic and photophysical properties of the resulting N,C,N'- and C,N,N'-cyclometalated aryl ruthenium(II) complexes were investigated. To this end, a series of complexes…
A new synthetic route for carbazole dendrimers was discovered using the copper-catalyzed N-arylation reaction. This synthetic route allowed synthesizing the fourth generation carbazole dendrimer and several derivatives for the first time. The crystal structure, Mark-Houwink-Sakurada plots, and UV-vis and fluorescence…
A method of using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) together with resolved grazing incidence geometry for depth profiling atomic, electronic, chemical or magnetic local structures in thin films is presented. The quantitative deconvolution of thickness-dependent spectral features is performed by fully considering bot…
We demonstrate a simple method to tailor the magnetization reversal mechanisms of Co/Pt multilayers by depositing them onto large area nanoporous anodized alumina (AAO) with various aspect ratios, A = pore depth/diameter. Magnetization reversal of composite (Co/Pt)/AAO films with large A is governed by strong domain-w…
Through detailed comparisons between embedded atom method (EAM) and first-principles calculations for Al, we find that EAM tends to fail when there are large electron-density gradients present. We attribute the observed failures to the violation of the uniform density approximation (UDA) underlying EAM. To remedy the…
We propose carbon as new resistive memory material for non-volatile memories and compare three allotropes of carbon, namely carbon nanotubes, graphene-like conductive carbon and insulating carbon for their possible application as resistance-change material in high density non-volatile memories. Repetitive high-speed s…
Responsive supramolecular gels were constructed from crown ether terminated four-arm star poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL-DB24C8) and dibenzylammonium-terminated two-arm PCL-DBAS (see scheme), exploiting the formation of pseudorotaxane linkages between crown ether and ammonium moieties. The resultant supramolecular ge…
Nanoparticles are being used in broad range of applications; therefore, these materials probably will enter the environment during their life cycle. The objective of the present study is to identify changes in properties of nanoparticles released into the environment with a case study on aluminum nanoparticles. Alumin…
Simulations were performed to understand the relative contributions of molecular parameters to longitudinal (r(1)) and transverse (r(2)) relaxivity as a function of applied field, and to obtain theoretical relaxivity maxima over a range of fields to appreciate what relaxivities can be achieved experimentally. The fiel…
Abstract Quantitative chemical state X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis of mixed nickel metal, oxide, hydroxide and oxyhydroxide systems is challenging due to the complexity of the Ni 2p peak shapes resulting from multiplet splitting, shake‐up and plasmon loss structures. Quantification of mixed nickel chemica…
A layered cobalt oxide (Ca(0.85)OH)(1.16)CoO(2) was prepared at low temperature by hydrothermal process and characterized by powder x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that plate image powders could be obtained at 453 K for 12 h. The electronic calculatio…
An in situ study was conducted using an x-ray diffractometer and a specially designed high pressure cell to examine the effects of carbon dioxide at different pressures and temperatures on three different modified montmorillonite species. These organoclays possessed organic pillars of quaternary ammonium surfactant wi…
We study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in one-dimensional chirped periodic structures composed of alternating layers of negative-index (or left-handed) metamaterial and conventional dielectric, under the condition of the zero average refractive index. We consider the case when the periodic structure has a l…
A molecular dynamics simulator coupled to a quantum semiempirical Hamiltonian model was applied to multiscale modeling of the catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbons during carbon nanotube (CNT) and carbon nanofiber (CNF) growth. It was found that catalytic decomposition of acetylene is accompanied by a large energy r…
It is possible to obtain enhanced and directional beams using subwavelength metallic structures. However, the enhanced beams throughout such structures are only directed towards the propagation direction. In this study, we design the output surface gratings asymmetrically in order to steer the beaming angle. We use a…
