A batch recipe for the selective crystallization of the metastable anhydrate form of an enantiotropic pseudo-dimorph system, l -phenylalanine, in a mixed solvent system (75 wt % water and 25 wt % 2-propanol) was implemented by controlled tracking of a designed trajectory in the phase diagram. The solubility curves of…

NO dissociation with and without the presence of hydrogen on the Au(321) surface was investigated using density functional theory and a periodic supercell approach. The role of hydrogen in the reaction of NO dissociation is studied by comparing four different routes (i.e. direct dissociation of NO on the clean surface…

An effective mechanism to prepare monodisperse carbon nanospheres with a regular round-ball-like shape is introduced. The route involves three steps: first, to synthesize monodisperse cross-linked polystyrene beads (CLPBs) by soap-free emulsion polymerization; second, to increase the cross-linking degree of CLPBs via…

Abstract A series of meso ‐polymethine‐substituted BODIPY compounds have been synthesized by the reaction of meso ‐methyl‐3,5‐diphenylboradipyrromethene with a number of hemicyanine derivatives. The dyes obtained exhibit intense long‐wavelength absorption, but weak fluorescence. Upon protonation of the dyes the long‐w…

A bioabsorbable nanofibrous scaffold was developed for early adhesion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Collagen nanofibers with diameters of 430 +/- 170 nm were fabricated by electrospinning. Over 45% of the MSC population adhered to this collagen nanofiber after 30 min at room temperature. Remarkably, collagen-coate…

The architecture of self-organized three-dimensionally interconnected nanocrystal fibrillar networks has been achieved by ultrasound from a solution consisting of separate spherulites. The ultrasound stimulated structural transformation is correlated to the striking ultrasonic effects on turning nongelled solutions or…

The high pH region of the phase diagram of lysozyme with NaCl as a precipitant was determined. In this region of the phase diagram, lysozyme crystallizes in one of two different orthorhombic modifications, the low and high temperature orthorhombic modifications. The solubility of two modifications was measured at diff…

Large area Ga-doped ZnO nanowire arrays have been vertically grown on transparent conducting substrate by a simple chemical vapor deposition method. Experimental results reveal the well-aligned array morphology and the uniform Ga concentration in these nanowires with individual nanowires of single crystallinity. In pa…

We report the magnetic-field-dependent Raman scattering studies on $\text{Pb}(\text{Zr},\text{Ti}){\text{O}}_{3}{\text{-CoFe}}_{2}{\text{O}}_{4}$ bilayer multiferroic system. The phonon frequencies of the nanobilayers obviously change with magnetic field, which is absent in the single $\text{Pb}(\text{Zr},\text{Ti}){\…

Quantum dots (QDs) are useful novel luminescent markers, but their embryonic toxicity is yet to be fully established, particularly in oocyte maturation and sperm fertilization. Earlier experiments by our group show that CdSe-core QDs have cytotoxic effects on mouse blastocysts and are associated with defects in subseq…

A particle size dependence for CO oxidation over rhodium nanoparticles of 1.9−11.3 nm has been investigated and determined to be modified by the existence of the capping agent poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). The particles were prepared using a polyol reduction procedure with PVP as the capping agent. The Rh nanoparticle…

We show that a second-order magnetic resonance present in the fishnet metamaterial can be enhanced so as to achieve simultaneous negative permittivity and permeability in the visible range. The double-negative behavior leads to reduced losses in this particular fishnet metamaterial. We also study the stacking of sever…
