Direct measurements are presented of the Schottky barrier (SB) heights of carbon nanotube devices contacted with Pd electrodes. The SB barrier heights were determined from the activation energy of the temperature-dependent thermionic emission current in the off-state of the devices. The barrier heights generally decre…

Carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation on Pd(111) surfaces has been studied by molecular beam methods with mixed molecular beams (CO + O 2 ) between 400 and 900 K and a CO:O 2 ratio of 7:1 to 1:10. A new aspect of the above reaction observed in the transient kinetics regime is the evidence for oxygen diffusion into Pd(111) su…

A new class of 120 degrees dendritic di-Pt(II) acceptor subunits has been designed and synthesized, from which six-component hexagonal metallodendrimers were easily formed with 120 degrees dendritic dipyridine donors via [3 + 3] coordination-driven self-assembly. The structures of all metallodendrimers are confirmed b…

Here, a fluorescent switch is constructed combining hemin, hemin aptamer, and a newly synthesized anionic conjugated polymer (ACP), poly(9,9-bis(6'-phosphatehexyl) fluorenealt-1,4-phenylene) sodium salt (PFHPNa/PFP). In the "off-state", the fluorescence of PFP is sensitively quenched by hemin, with a high K(sv) value…

A number of fully functional proteins have been identified to exist in a partially or fully disordered state. These intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) are recognized as an important sequence class that fulfill many roles. A number of biomineral-associated proteins, particularly those which possess polyelectrolyte…

Density functional calculations have been performed on initial copper deposition and its growth over ZnO nonpolar (101̅0) and (112̅0) surfaces. On (101̅0), our results demonstrate that copper atoms first interact with dangling bonds or bonding orbital above ZnO. As the deposition increases, they form a zigzag structur…

In this work, we introduce a new and potentially general method of assay of proteins in solution. In addition, the method could distinguish conformations of protein (native and denatured forms). The method is based on the changes in visible absorption spectra of citrate-stabilized Au nanoparticles (NPs) upon addition…

The optical properties of (8, 0) single walled carbon nanotubes alloyed with nitrogen (N) have been examined using relaxed carbon-carbon (C-C) bond length ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations in the long wavelength limit. The maximum value of the absorption coefficient is shown to depend strongly on…

The recombination dynamics of defect states in zinc oxide nanowires has been studied by developing a general expression for time-resolved photoluminescence intensity based on a second-order approximation for the radiative and non-radiative recombination rates. The model allows us to determine the parameters that chara…

We report on the electrical performance of field effect transistor (FET) nanodevices based on suspended single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) grown by our 'all-laser' synthesis process. The attractiveness of the proposed approach lies in the combination of standard microfabrication processing with the in situ 'all-las…

In 1832, Friedrich Wöhler and Justus von Liebig described the existence of polymorphism in molecular crystals for the first time in the case of benzamide. 175 years later, the crystal structure of this historical polymorph could be finally solved. Surprising similarities regarding the packing motifs between all three…
