Abstract Bubble dynamics near a rigid boundary are associated with wide and important applications in cavitation erosion in many industrial systems and medical ultrasonics. This classical problem is revisited with the following two developments. Firstly, computational studies on the problem have commonly been based on…
A single crystal of a novel mixed-stack donor-acceptor complex formed by a tetracyanoquinodimethane derivative with an extended π-conjugated system and a sulfur-bridged annulene displays the highest ambipolar transport behavior among donor-acceptor complexes reported with electron and hole mobilities reaching up to 0.…
A universal approach is developed to prepare three-dimensional porous graphene architectures decorated with various nanomaterials via hydrothermal co-assembly. The obtained porous hybrid architectures show enhanced performance in energy storage and conversion.
A strategy is demonstrated for simultaneous phase/size manipulation, multicolor tuning, and remarkably enhanced upconversion luminescence (UCL), particularly in red emission bands in fixed formulae of general lanthanide‐doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs), namely NaLnF 4 :Yb/Er (Ln: Lu, Gd, Yb), simply through tr…
Using covalent organic polymer pre-cursors, we have developed a new strategy for location control of N-dopant heteroatoms in the graphitic porous carbon, which otherwise is impossible to achieve with conventional N-doping techniques. The electrocatalytic activities of the N-doped holey graphene analogues are well corr…
A 2D atomic-layer-thickness phototransistor based on a graphene-MoS2 bybrid device is constructed with a photoresponse much larger than that of individual graphene or MoS2 based phototransistors. Strong and selective light absorption in the MoS2 layer creates electric charges that are transferred to graphene layers de…
We report a NaOH-mediated NaBH4 reduction method for the synthesis of mono-, bi-, and tri-thiolate-protected Au25 nanoclusters (NCs) with precise control of both the Au core and thiolate ligand surface. The key strategy is to use NaOH to tune the formation kinetics of Au NCs, i.e., reduce the reduction ability of NaBH…
A facile one-step microwave-assisted approach for the preparation of strong fluorescent carbon nitride quantum dots (g-CNQDs) by using guanidine hydrochloride and EDTA as the precursors was developed. Strong chemiluminescence (CL) emission was observed when NaClO was injected into the prepared g-CNQDs, and a novel CL…
We investigate the excitonic dynamics in MoSe${}_{2}$ monolayer and bulk samples by femtosecond transient absorption. Excitons are resonantly injected by a 750-nm and 100-fs laser pulse, and are detected by measuring a differential reflection of a probe pulse tuned in the range 790--820 nm. We observe a strong density…
Green chemistry has been an eye catching area of interest since the past few years. With the problem of energy crisis looming high and its constraint being particularly vulnerable on the developing economies, the need for giving alternative traditional chemistry a serious consideration as well as adequate room for dev…
A series of all-inorganic, abundant-metal-based, high-nuclearity cobalt-phosphate (Co-Pi) molecular catalysts [{Co4(OH)3(PO4)}4(SiW9O34)4](32-) (1), [{Co4(OH)3(PO4)}4(GeW9O34)4](32-) (2), [{Co4(OH)3(PO4)}4(PW9O34)4](28-) (3), and [{Co4(OH)3(PO4)}4(AsW9O34)4](28-) (4) were synthesized and shown to be highly effective a…
This mini-review highlights the latest advances in the chemistry and biology of Pluronic® triblock copolymers. We focus on their applications in medicine, as drug delivery carriers, biological response modifiers, and pharmaceutical ingredients. Examples of drug delivery systems and formulations currently in clinical u…
Superhydrophobic surfaces have evoked great interest in researchers for both purely academic pursuits and industrial applications. Metal corrosion is a serious problem, both economically and operationally, for engineering systems such as aircraft, automobiles, pipelines, and naval vessels. Due to the broad range of po…
Boron is an interesting element with unusual polymorphism. While three-dimensional (3D) structural motifs are prevalent in bulk boron, atomic boron clusters are found to have planar or quasi-planar structures, stabilized by localized two-center-two-electron (2c-2e) σ bonds on the periphery and delocalized multicenter-…
Density functional theory calculations are performed to unravel the nature of the contact between metal electrodes and monolayer MoS2. Schottky barriers are shown to be present for a variety of metals with the work functions spanning over 4.2-6.1 eV. Except for the p-type Schottky contact with platinum, the Fermi leve…
Phosphorene, a monolayer of black phosphorus, is promising for nanoelectronic applications not only because it is a natural p-type semiconductor but also because it possesses a layer-number-dependent direct bandgap (in the range of 0.3 to 1.5 eV). On basis of the density functional theory calculations, we investigate…
This review compiles results of experimental and theoretical studies on thin films and quantum structures of semiconductors with randomly distributed Mn ions, which exhibit spintronic functionalities associated with collective ferromagnetic spin ordering. Properties of $p$-type Mn-containing III-V as well as II-VI, IV…
Due to the recent expanding interest in two-dimensional layered materials, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been receiving much research attention. Having an ultrathin layered structure and an appreciable direct band gap of 1.9 eV in the monolayer regime, few-layer MoS2 has good potential applications in nanoelectronic…
Radionuclides (uranium, thorium, radium, radon gas etc.) are found naturally in air, water, soil and rock. Everyday, we ingest and inhale these radionuclides through the air we breathe and through food and water we take. Out of the internal exposure via ingestion of radionuclides, water contributes the major portion.…
Thin films of the bis[2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octachlorophthalocyaninate] lutetium(III) complex (LuPc2Cl32) have been prepared by the Langmuir-Blodgett and the Langmuir-Schaefer (LS) techniques. The influence of the chlorine substituents in the structure of the films and in their spectroscopic, electrochemical and sensin…
