The interactions between nanosized particles and living systems are commonly mediated by what adsorbs to the nanoparticle in the biological environment, its biomolecular corona, rather than the pristine surface. Here, we characterize the adhesion toward the cell membrane of nanoparticles of different material and size…

Using the usual mean-field theory approximation, the critical behaviour (i.e. the Curie temperature T c and the critical surface transverse field Ω sc ) in a multiple-surface-layer ferroelectric thin film is studied on the basis of the spin- transverse Ising model. The dependence of the Curie temperature T c on the su…

ZrO 2 impurity phase was examined by means of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy in reactive-sintered ZrB 2 –SiC–ZrC composites hot-pressed at 1600°C and 1800°C. An analytical electron microscopy study further revealed solid-solution of both Zr and O in the β-SiC phase: Zr:Si ratios were measured to be…

We have constructed an ellipsometer capable of rapid polarization measurements based on two photoelastic modulators. It is capable of simultaneously measuring all elements of the Stokes vector on a 10-ms time scale, allowing for a complete polarization analysis including any depolarization that may occur at rough and…

Measurements of the nonlinear conductivity in NbSe${}_{3}$ when the high-$T$ and the low-$T$ charge-density waves (CDWs) are simultaneously sliding have been performed. It is shown that the threshold electric field ${E}_{t1}$ for depinning the high-$T$ CDW increases 4--5 times at the temperature at which the low-$T$ C…

We report experiments on simple shear of a monolayer of bidisperse and polydisperse bubbles in a Couette device. The bubbles segregate according to their sizes, with larger ones in the middle of the gap and smaller ones closer to the walls, when the shear rate and the bubble size ratio are each above a threshold. The…

We studied the photoluminescence spectra of silicon and phosphorus co-implanted silica thin films on (100) silicon substrates as a function of isothermal annealing time. The rapid phase segregation, formation, and growth dynamics of intrinsic silicon nanocrystals are observed, in the first 600 s of rapid thermal proce…

Superconducting FeSe 0.5 Te 0.5 thin films are deposited on amorphous substrates, i.e., glass substrates by a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. Microstructural characterizations show that the films are highly textured along (00 l ) with good crystallinity. The superconducting critical transition temperature ( T…

Abstract A differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) study of miscibility in blends of the semicrystalline polyester poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and amorphous monomer epoxy DGEBA (diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A) was performed. Evidence of the miscibility of PHB/DGEBA in the mol…

We develop a device model for p-i-n tunneling transit-time diodes based on single- and multiple graphene layer structures operating at the reverse bias voltages. The model of the graphene tunneling transit-time diode (GTUNNETT) accounts for the features of the interband tunneling generation of electrons and holes and…

Theoretically, when a one-dimensional (1D) ballistic thermal conductor is mechanically bent beyond its elastic limit, nonlinear structural buckling will develop and reduce the transmission of phonons. However, because of limited mechanical strengths and short phonon mean free paths of most materials, no experimental w…
