Encapsulation of enzymes during the creation of an emulsion is a simple and efficient route for enhancing enzyme catalysis in organic media. Herein, we report a capsule with a shell comprising a monolayer of silica Janus particles (JPs) (referred to as a monolayer capsule) and a Pickering emulsion for the encapsulatio…

Adipic acid, which is a very important commodity chemical, is traditionally manufactured industrially by an aged and unsustainable multistep process that involves homogeneous catalysts, aggressive oxidants (concentrated nitric acid) and the production of large quantities of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide. Much resea…

Lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are highly promising candidates for bioimaging and for cellular nanothermometry as a novel diagnostic tool. Aiming for the diagnosis of diseases at very early stages in order to optimize therapy and recovery of the patient, it must be taken into account that thermal…

Many attempts have been made in the application of multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) as a 3D tumor model to investigate their biological responses upon introduction of polymeric micelles as nanocarriers for therapeutic applications. However, the micelle penetration pathways in MCTS are not yet known. In this study,…

Highly fluorescent red copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs) were synthesized in aqueous medium in the presence of dihydrolipoic acid and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). The Cu NCs, in solid form, were stable, retained their optical properties for a month, and could be redispersed for use when required. The NCs in aqueous medium…

Porous manganese dioxide (MnO 2 ) was synthesized via an ultrasound–microwave-intensified precipitation reaction with the soft template of triblock polymer P123. The MnO 2 particles prepared by combining microwave heating and ultrasonic dispersing showed a loose sphere-network structure with tiny pores 4–5 nm in diame…

In this paper, oxidation of Cu during physical sputtering deposition in a high purity and low pressure Ar atmosphere without introducing O2 gas flow was studied systemically. It was found that various flexible Cu-based films could be obtained by simply adjusting deposition parameters. Electrical and optical testing re…

Defects play a key role in determining the properties of most materials and, because they tend to be highly localized, characterizing them at the single-defect level is particularly important. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has a history of imaging the electronic structure of individual point defects in conductor…

Monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides are direct gap semiconductors with great promise for optoelectronic devices. Although spatial correlation of electrons and holes plays a key role, there is little experimental information on such fundamental properties as exciton binding energies and band gaps. We report here…

A method for deterministic control of magnetism using an electrical stimulus is highly desired for the new generation of magnetoelectronic devices. Much effort has been focused on magnetic domain-wall (DW) motion manipulated by a successive injection of spin-polarized current into a magnetic nanostructure. However, an…

We discuss the possibility of enhancing the chiroptical response from molecules uniformly distributed around nanostructures that sustain localized plasmon resonances. We demonstrate that the average optical chirality in the near field of any plasmonic nanostrucure cannot be significantly higher than that in a plane wa…

The absorption performance in the BiFeO$_3$/TiO$_2$ bilayer film prepared by simple sol-gel method has been significantly improved in the ultraviolet and visible-light region, comparing with BiFeO$_3$ and TiO$_2$ films. Terahertz-radiation emission presents a direct evidence of photon-induced electrons and holes trans…

The magnetic field response of the transport properties of novel materials and then the large magnetoresistance effects are of broad importance in both science and application. We report large transverse magnetoreistance (the magnetoresistant ratio ~ 1.3 × 10(5)% in 2 K and 9 T field, and 4.3 × 10(6)% in 0.4 K and 32…

The electronic properties of bilayer graphene strongly depend on relative orientation of the two atomic lattices. Whereas Bernal-stacked graphene is most commonly studied, a rotational mismatch between layers opens up a whole new field of rich physics, especially at small interlayer twist. Here we report on magnetotra…

Spin gapless semiconductors are known to be strongly affected by structural disorder when grown epitaxially as thin films. The magnetic properties of Mn2CoAl thin films grown on GaAs (001) substrates are investigated here as a function of annealing. This study investigates the atomic-specific magnetic moments of Mn an…

In realizing practical nontrivial topological electronic phases stable structures need to be determined first. Tin and lead do stabilize an optimal two-dimensional high-buckled phase---a hexagonal close-packed bilayer structure with ninefold atomic coordination---and they do not stabilize topological fullerenes, as de…
