Abstract A series of dyes bearing polymethine chromophore units in boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) α‐positions were prepared by condensation of 3,5‐dimethyl boron dipyrromethene with various hemicyanines. One or two methyl groups of the starting material can react, yielding the corresponding mono‐ and disubstituted deri…

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have a great potential in wide applications but faces limitation in term of dispersion feasibility. The aggregation of MWCNTs floss has restricted its usage and thus, acid treatment is expected to promote the MWCNTs reaggregation. The functionalization process of MWCNTs involves o…

Modeling interfacial properties is a major challenge for mesoscopic simulation methods. Many-body dissipative particle dynamics (MDPD) is then a promising method to model heterogeneous systems at long time and length scales. However no rule exists to obtain a set of MDPD parameters capable to reproduce the thermodynam…

We propose a general nucleation and growth model that can explain the mechanism of the formation of CoPt(3)/Au, FePt/Au, and Pt/Au nanodumbbells. Thus, we found that the nucleation event occurs as a result of reduction of Au(+) ions by partially oxidized surface Pt atoms. In cases when Au(3+) is used as a gold precurs…
