The synthesis of diverse nitric oxide (NO)-releasing network polyesters is described. The melt phase condensation of polyols with a calculated excess of diacid followed by thermal curing generates cross-linked polyesters containing acid end groups. Varying the composition and curing temperatures of the polyesters resu…
ABSTRACT Acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-solubilized collagen (PSC) were isolated from silver carp scales (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and some biochemical properties of scale collagens were investigated. The yields of ASC and PSC on the dry basis were 0.86% and 2.32%, respectively. Sodium dodecyl sulfate–poly…
Single wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) networks of different loadings were measured by impedance spectroscopy. The resistances of the junctions and bundles have been separated by modeling ac impedance spectroscopy data to an equivalent circuit of two parallel resistance-capacitance elements in series. The junction resista…
We describe field-induced multiaxis rotations of colloids in a nematic liquid crystal. Anchoring of the nematic director to the colloidal platelet's surface and interplay of dielectric and elastic energies enable robust control over colloid orientation that cannot be achieved in isotropic liquids. Because of the aniso…
Graphene has emerged as a promising nanoelectronic material in electronic devices applications and studying two-dimensional electron gases with relativistic dispersion near Dirac point. Nonetheless, the control of the preparation conditions for homogeneous large-area graphene layers is difficult. Here, we illustrate e…
We report on an atmospheric-pressure dc microplasma that can be used to passivate silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) in ethanol and that stabilizes their optoelectronic properties. We show that microplasma processing enhances the SiNCs photoluminescence intensity by factor of more than ten times and ∼80 nm redshift of its m…
We derive the radial distribution function and the static structure factor for the particles in model nanoparticle-organic hybrid materials composed of nanoparticles and attached oligomeric chains in the absence of an intervening solvent. The assumption that the oligomers form an incompressible fluid of bead-chains at…
We report the synthesis and characterization of five novel Mo-containing polyoxometalate (POM) bisphosphonate complexes with nuclearities ranging from 4 to 12 and with fully reduced, fully oxidized, or mixed-valent (Mo(V), Mo(VI)) molybdenum, in which the bisphosphonates bind to the POM cluster through their two phosp…
Coexistence of both magnetic ordering and ferroelectricity (with giant dielectric constant) have been observed for the first time in $\text{Co}{({\text{Fe}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{Mo}}_{x})}_{2}{\text{O}}_{4}$. The magnetization of $\text{Co}{({\text{Fe}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{Mo}}_{x})}_{2}{\text{O}}_{4}$ ($x$ r…
We report aqueous phase synthesized semiconductor nanoparticles with well-defined numbers of constituent atoms. Aqueous phase synthesis provides many advantages over organic phase synthesis for producing such high-quality semiconductor nanoparticles. We synthesized CdSe nanoparticles with excellent colloidal and optic…
A pronounced memory effect has been observed in cadmium telluride quantum dots (CdTe-QDs) doped ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLCs) by using dielectric and electro-optical methods. The memory effect has been attributed to the charge storage on the CdTe-QDs upon the application of dc bias across the sample cell. The F…
Following the achievement of superhydrophobicity which prevents water adhesion on a surface, superomniphobicity extends this high repellency property to a wide range of liquids, including oils, solvents, and other low surface energy liquids. Recent theoretical approaches have yield to specific microstructures design c…
The effect of chemical substitutions on the energetical landscape of an optical molecular switch (Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2008, 10, 1243) was studied with the aid of ab initio electronic structure methods. Series of different chemical moieties were substituted into the molecular frame of 7-hydroxyquinoline as well as…
Atomistic modeling shows that Cu–Nb and Cu–V interfaces contain high excess atomic volume due to constitutional vacancy concentrations of ∼5 at. % and ∼0.8 at. %., respectively. This finding is supported by experiments demonstrating that an approximately fivefold higher He concentration is required to observe He bubbl…
The transient differential transmission (ΔT/T) spectra of graphene were obtained from 380 (3.3 eV) to 670 nm (1.9 eV). The intraband carrier equilibration by carrier–carrier scattering occurred within 60 fs. The subsequent carrier relaxation process was governed by carrier-optical phonon scattering and had linear depe…
We investigate the plasmonic properties of gold nanorings in close proximity to a gold film. The rings have been fabricated using nanosphere lithography and are optimized to boost their near-infrared surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) effects. A SERS enhancement factor as large as 1.4×107 has been achieved by tu…
We demonstrate a novel path for the fabrication of thin-film polymer nanocomposites containing vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Liquid crystal mesophases of hexagonally packed cylindrical micelles orient with their long axes parallel to an applied magnetic field and template the alignment of…
Near edge x-ray absorption fine-structure spectra of graphenes are calculated using hybrid density-functional theory with the equivalent core hole approximation, aiming to resolve the ongoing debate on the interpretation of corresponding experimental spectra. Effects of size, stacking, edges, and defects on the spectr…
A new type of hydrogen storage material—namely, calcium borohydride diammoniate (Ca(BH 4 ) 2 ·2NH 3 ), is synthesized by reacting calcium borohydride and 2 equiv of ammonia. Structural analyses show that this complex has an orthorhombic structure (space group Pbcn ) with unit-cell parameters of a = 6.4160 Å, b = 8.390…
We report on the visible-blind deep-ultraviolet (DUV) photodetectors with metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) Schottky contacts based on individual Zn2GeO4 nanowire single-crystals. At an 8 V bias voltage, the device shows an extremely low dark current (<0.1 pA), a responsivity of 38.3 A/W (corresponding gain ∼200)…
