The reaction of single-component molecular crystal nanorods with a second species to form cocrystal nanorods is described. Single-component crystalline nanorods, composed of 9-methylanthracene (9-MA), are grown in a porous anodic aluminum oxide template. These templated rods are then exposed to a suspension of 1,2,4,5…

Colloidal particles that have nonuniform bulk or surface compositions are of emerging interest because of their potential applications involving advanced chemical storage and delivery and the self-assembly of novel functional materials. Experimental realization of anisotropic particles is much more difficult than that…

The surface melting and lamella rearrangement process that happen in commercially available linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) were studied with special emphasis on conformational and crystal structural changes during the process. The thermal melting behavior of the specimens was examined by using differential sc…

A study of the magnetoexciton binding energy in graphene bilayers embedded in a dielectric is presented. The calculations are based on the relativistic Bethe-Salpeter equation assuming a strong magnetic field regime where the lowest Landau-level approximation takes place. It is shown that in graphene bilayer structure…

Polypyrrole (PPy) nanotubes have been synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization of pyrrole within the pores of polycarbonate membrane using the technology of diffusion of solutes. The nanotubes array prepared by the proposed method can be considered as nanoelectrode ensembles (NEEs). An amperometric uric acid s…

Random copolymers of styrene and 4-vinylpyridine P(S 1− x - co -4VP x ) were synthesized to study the effect of the random copolymer “repulsion” on the self-assembly in hydrogen-bonded complexes with pentadecylphenol (one PDP molecule per 4VP group). The major trends observed as a function of the fraction of styrene m…

Using in situ synchrotron x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we obtained high-resolution $\text{As}\text{ }3d$ and $\text{Se}\text{ }3d$ spectra of Se-rich ${\text{As}}_{36}{\text{Se}}_{64}$ glassy films during illumination with band-gap light. We report direct experimental evidence of the chemical origin of the light-…

Electrical conductivity switching is induced by photoirradiation in single crystals of α-(BEDT-TTF) 2 I 3 below 135 K. Photoirradiated crystals show differential negative resistance (DNR), and bistability is observed in the electrical conductivity as a function of applied voltage. The threshold in voltage, which induc…

A novel nanometer titanium dioxide (nanoTD)/silk fibroin (SF) blend membrane was prepared and characterized by AFM, FTIR, DSC, and XRD. The strength, solubility and thermal properties and the antibacterial activity of the blend membrane were then investigated. The results show that at a nanoTD/SF weight ratio of 0.1%,…

By analogy with hydrogen-bonded molecular capsules, self-assembled nanotubes are of interest because they can temporarily isolate guest molecules from the solution. We show here that the stability of a particular bis-urea based dynamic self-assembled nanotube is related to the possibility for solvent molecules to fit…

We investigate the influence of directional or bonding interactions on the structure and phase diagram of complex fluids. Using a generalization of the theory of associating fluids we study the interplay between the self-assembly process, driven by the bonding interactions, and the isotropic-nematic transition, driven…

Abstract With the ever decreasing characteristic lengths of nanomaterials, nonequilibrium electron-phonon scattering can be affected by additional scattering processes at the interface of two materials. Electron-interface scattering would lead to another path of energy flow for the high-energy electrons other than ele…
