Crystals of the single-component molecular conductor [Cu(dmdt)(2)] (dmdt = dimethyltetrathiafulvalenedithiolate) were prepared as a molecular system, with three-dimensionally arranged magnetic moments embedded in "sea" of π conduction electrons. [Cu(dmdt)(2)] had fairly large room-temperature conductivity (110 S cm(-1…
The high temperature p-type thermoelectric material Yb(14)MnSb(11) has been of increasing research interest since its high temperature thermoelectric properties were first measured in 2006. Subsequent substitutions of Zn, Al, and La into the structure have shown that this material can be further optimized by altering…
During the solidification of metal alloys, chemical heterogeneities at the scale of the product develop. It is referred to as "macrosegregation". Numerical simulation tools exist in the industry. However, their predictive capabilities are not validated and are still limited. A 2D numerical benchmark is presented, base…
Over recent years innovative nanomolecules in a form of dendrimers have been gaining increasing interest. These compounds can be designed and modified in many ways giving a molecule which meets required expectations. For this reason dendrimers are the object of intensive studies in many fields of nanoscience including…
As nanomaterials are developed and applied, their potential for health hazards needs to be determined. In the present study, we used commercial nude multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) trimmed to a short length (50-200 nm; s-MWCNTs) and synthesized functionalized MWCNTs with polyethylene glycol (PEG) (s-MWCNTs-PEG)…
Iron(II) complexes of the macrocyclic ligands 1,4,7,10-tetrakis(carbamoylmethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (TCMC) and (1S,4S,7S,10S)-1,4,7,10-tetrakis(2-hydroxypropyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (STHP) contain a highly stabilized Fe(II) center in the high-spin state, which is encapsulated by an octadentate ma…
In order to identify the basic conditions for thermal rectification we investigate a simple model with nonuniform, graded mass distribution. The existence of thermal rectification is theoretically predicted and numerically confirmed, suggesting that thermal rectification is a typical occurrence in graded systems, whic…
A core-shell structured multifunctional carrier with nanocrystalline silicon (ncSi) as the core and a water-soluble block copolymer as the shell based on a poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) inner shell and polyethylene glycol (MPEG) outer shell (ncSi-MPM) was synthesized for drug delivery. The morphology, composition, and…
Advanced organocatalytic synthesis methods were employed to prepare linear poly(carbonate)s with control over functional group incorporation and molecular weight. Pendant allyl or epoxide groups served as reaction partners in thiol–ene click or epoxide–amine reactions with ethylene oxide-containing cross-linking group…
Using [Mo(2)S(2)O(2)(H(2)O)(6)](2+) and squarate dianion, we synthesized the thiometalate ring compounds [(Mo(2)S(2)O(2))(x)(OH)(y)(C(4)O(4))(z)(Mo(2)O(8))(o)(H(2)O)(p)](n-), where [x,y,z,o,p,n] = [7,14,2,0,2,4] for 1, [6,8,2,2,4,8] for 2, and [4,6,1,1,0,4] for both 3a and 3b, which are chiral and nonchiral isomers, r…
Nanostructured inverse hexagonal polyoxometalate composite films were cast directly from solution using poly(butadiene-block-2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PB-b-PDMAEMA) diblock copolymers as structure directing agents for phosphomolybdic acid (H(3)[PMo(12)O(40)], H(3)PMo). H(3)PMo units are selectively incorpo…
The cattail fiber assembly used as a sorbent for the sorption of engine and vegetable oils was investigated. The internal factors governing the oil sorption of cattail fibers were discussed. The analysis for the adsorption mechanism of cattail fiber assembly indicated that the tuft of cattail fibers has a down-like st…
Using the NO2adsorption and Al2O3passivation technique, we improved the thermal stability of hydrogen-terminated diamond field-effect transistors (FETs) and then demonstrated stable operation at 200 °C in a vacuum for the first time. At 200 °C, the drain current IDSof a passivated diamond FET remained constant for at…
Supported Pd nanowire and cuboctahedron catalysts have been synthesized in an ethylene glycol–poly(vinylpyrrolidone)–KBr system using a precipitation–reduction method. KBr plays a critical role in controlling the morphology of Pd: with a variety of relatively low KBr concentrations, Pd nanowires with different lengths…
Abstract The devulcanization reactions of ground tire rubber (GTR) and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) mixtures performed during the melt‐extrusion process through the induction of high shear stress by increases in the screw rotation speeds and reaction temperatures were investigated in this study. The results show that…
Lightly cross-linked natural rubber (NR, cis-1,4-polyisoprene) was found to be an exceptional cold programmable shape memory polymer (SMP) with strain storage of up to 1000%. These networks are stabilized by strain-induced crystals. Here, we explore the influence of mechanical stress applied perpendicular to the elong…
Abstract Multifunctional high performance functionalized graphene sheets (FGSs) based epoxy nanocomposites were investigated to understand the feasibility that these FGSs‐epoxy nanocomposites can be applied to cryotank composite applications. The FGSs were successfully synthesized from graphite flakes through preparin…
A two-dimensional array of gold optical antennas integrated with a one-dimensional array of gold strips and mirrors is introduced and fabricated. The experimental results show that this design achieves average surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement factors as high as 1.2 × 10(10) , which is more than two…
This feature article highlights the recent developments of energy transfer processes of Au-nanoparticle-based assemblies. Many recent studies reveal that the energy transfer from dye to Au nanoparticle is a surface energy transfer process as established from 1/d 4 distance dependence. Such distance dependent energy tr…
In mononitrosyl complexes of transition metals two long-lived metastable states corresponding to linkage isomers of the nitrosyl ligand can be induced by irradiation with appropriate wavelengths. Upon irradiation, the N-bound nitrosyl ligand (ground state, GS) turns into two different conformations: isonitrosyl O boun…
