A pair of one-dimensional enantiomers based on the versatile chiral dicyanoruthenate(III) building block have been synthesized and they are chiral single-chain magnets with the effective spin-reversal barrier of 28.2 K.
Six β-diketonate ligands were used to prepare the corresponding antenna europium(III) ternary complexes using 1,10-phenanthroline as an ancillary ligand. All the complexes exhibited high decomposition temperatures. Photophysical properties such as FT-IR spectra, UV-Vis absorption spectra, excitation and emission spect…
This paper focuses on the conductivity and transport properties of chitosan-based solid biopolymer electrolytes containing ammonium thiocyanate (NH 4 SCN). The sample containing 40 wt% NH 4 SCN exhibited the highest conductivity value of (1.81 ± 0.50) × 10 −4 S cm −1 at room temperature. Conductivity has increased to…
In recent years, there has been an increased interest in octahedral rotations in perovskite materials, particularly on their response to strain in epitaxial thin films. The current theoretical framework assumes that rotations are affected primarily through the change in in-plane lattice parameters imposed by coherent…
Biopolymer-based materials are based on re-growing resources and are attractive for biomedical applications, as they can inherently combine degradability in vivo, can offer sites of adhesion for cells and proteins, often show good biocompatibility and may additionally be used to release embedded bioactive molecules. H…
Summary In this study, polyurethane‐urea microcapsules containing fabric softener fragrance (Teddysoft TM , by EPS) as active agents were produced by interfacial polymerization. Size, shape and morphology of the microcapsules were studied by using an optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. The effectivene…
Highly luminescent carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with narrow size distributions were synthesised in reverse micelles using a simple room temperature, solution-phase synthesis. The CQDs are stabilised by covalently bound alkyl ligand to minimise surface oxidation and exhibit blue emission with a marked dependency on excit…
Chitosan scaffolds with hierarchical macroporous structures for recyclable adsorption of Cu(II) ions are prepared by templating from Pickering high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) for the first time. The liquid paraffin-in-water HIPEs are stabilized by chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs). The internal phase fraction can be…
A major challenge for a drug-delivery system is to engineer stable drug carriers with excellent biocompatibility, monodisperse size, and controllable release profiles. In this study, we used a microfluidic technique to encapsulate thermally hydrocarbonized porous silicon (THCPSi) microparticles within solid lipid micr…
Polarization insensitive metamaterial perfect absorbers were investigated through finite element numerical method and a new equivalent-circuit electric model was proposed to interpret this polarization insensitivity. The devices were fabricated to validate the model and experimental measurements were shown to be in go…
ZnO thin films were deposited using the simple, flexible and cost-effective spray ultrasonic technique at different precursor molarities values. The films were deposited on a glass substrate at 350 °C. This paper is to present a new approach to the description of correlation between electrical conductivity and optical…
CO2-responsive polymer poly(N,N-diethylaminoethylmethacrylate)-modified magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@dye/SiO2–PDEAEMA) were synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization from the surfaces of silica coated, dye-labelled iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4@dye/SiO2). TEM, FT-IR, and TGA confirmed and quantified the g…
A wide variety of optical phenomena rely on the near field manipulation and confinement of electromagnetic field in subwavelength metallic and dielectric resonators with applications ranging from the design of micro and nano scale photonic devices to super lenses and ultrasensitive sensors. In this invited paper, we p…
This paper addresses the problem of adequately protecting flying robots from damage resulting from collisions that may occur when exploring constrained and cluttered environments. A method for designing protective structures to meet the specific constraints of flying systems is presented and applied to the protection…
Undoped, nitrogen-doped and aluminumnitrogen co-doped ZnO lms were deposited on Si substrates by magnetron sputtering using layer-by-layer method of growth. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was employed to characterize electronic properties of undoped and nitrogen doped ZnO lms. The eects of N and NAl incorporation in…
Acute toxicity of silver nanoparticle (AgNP) for photosynthesis in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was studied using an M-PEA2 fluorimeter. Analysis of the fluorescence induction curves in the presence of AgNP at low concentrations revealed inhibited electron transport in the PS2 photosystem and increased content of Q(B)-no…
The eco-friendly biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), using starch as reducing agent, was addressed in this work. Starch solutions with three different concentrations (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% w/v), heated at 90°C for 12 h and stabilized with 100 µL of NaOH 0.1 M were used during the synthesis process. AgNPs were c…
We report the photoelectrode properties of an n-type β-Ga 2 O 3 single crystal in aqueous solutions. The conduction and valence band-edge potentials were found to be 1.1 V higher and 2.5 V lower than the H + /H 2 and O 2 /H 2 O redox potentials, respectively. Photocurrent drastically increased as photogenerated carrie…
Grain boundaries (GBs) are driven to migrate up a temperature gradient. In this work, we use a phase field model to investigate the impact of temperature gradients on isotropic grain growth. GB motion in 2D UO2 polycrystals is predicted under increasing temperature gradients. We find that the temperature gradient does…
Cobalt sulfide (CoS) and graphene nanocomposites were prepared from cobalt nitrate, thioacetamide, and graphene as starting materials in the presence of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) as surfactant. Furthermore, its morphology and properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron micro…
