We report on a method for the large-scale production of graphene micropatterns by a self-assembly mediated process. The evaporation-induced self-assembly technique was engineered to produce highly ordered graphene patterns on flexible substrates in a simplified and scalable manner. The crossed stripe graphene patterns…
Pure crystals: Ion exchange of semiconductor nanocrystals yielded materials with poor optoelectronic properties such as low photoluminescence quantum yields. The reason for the low quantum yields of these nanocrystals are impurities at the level of a few atoms per nanocrystal. Cation-exchanged nanostructures, however,…
Poly(polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate-co-methacrylic acid)-block-poly(methyl methacrylate) P(PEGMEMA-co-MAA)-b-PMMA block copolymer were prepared via RAFT (reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer) polymerization and subsequently self-assembled into micelles as a drug delivery carrier for albendaz…
The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential of a shape-memory-polymer (SMP)-based particulate composite to heal structural-length scale damage with small thermoplastic additive contents through a close-then-heal (CTH) self-healing scheme that was introduced in a previous study (Li and Uppu 2010 Comput. S…
Graphene nanosheets (GNS) supporting Pt nanoparticles (PNs) are prepared using perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) as a functionalization and anchoring agent. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) results indicate that the prepared Pt NPs are uniformly deposited on GNS with a narrow particle size ranging from 1 to 4 nm in…
Edible films and coatings have received considerable attention in recent years because of their advantages including use as edible packaging materials over synthetic films. This could contribute to the reduction of environmental pollution. By functioning as barriers, such edible films and coatings can feasibly reduce…
Ternary metal oxide, Zn2GeO4, In2Ge2O7, have potential applications in many research areas. Using a single chemical vapor deposition method, high-quality single crystalline Zn2GeO4 nanowire (NW) mats and In2Ge2O7 NW mats were synthesized on a large scale. Nanowires mats based ultraviolet photodetectors were fabricated…
Graphene, which has a linear electronic band structure, is widely considered as a semimetal. In the present study, we combine graphene with conventional metallic surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates to achieve a higher sensitivity of SERS detection. We synthesize high-quality, single-layer graphene shee…
From a simple model for the driven motion of a planar interface under the influence of a diffusion field we derive a damped nonlinear oscillator equation for the interface position. Inside an unstable regime, where the damping term is negative, we find limit-cycle solutions, describing an oscillatory propagation of th…
An ab initio equation of motion method is introduced to calculate the temperature-dependent mean-square vibrational amplitudes ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{2}$ which appear in the Debye-Waller factors in x-ray absorption, x-ray scattering, and related spectra. The approach avoids explicit calculations of phonon modes, and…
Using single-molecule microscopy of fluorogenic reactions we studied Pt nanoparticle catalysis at single-particle, single-turnover resolution for two reactions: one an oxidative N-deacetylation and the other a reductive N-deoxygenation. These Pt nanoparticles show distinct catalytic kinetics in these two reactions: on…
Neutron powder diffraction and inelastic measurements were performed examining the 5d pyrochlore Y$_2$Ir$_2$O$_7$. Temperature dependent measurements were performed between 3.4 K and 290 K, spanning the magnetic transition at 155 K. No sign of any structural or disorder induced phase transition was observed over the e…
Abstract Die Natur erzeugt Materialien durch chemische Synthese und molekulare Selbstorganisation unter Beteiligung nichtkovalenter Kräfte. Wissenschaftler haben von diesen Phänomenen gelernt und dieses Wissen genutzt, um selbstorganisierte künstliche Materialien vielfältiger Größen, Formen und Eigenschaften für ein b…
A rapid, direct sonochemical method has successfully been developed to synthesize cryptomelane-type manganese octahedral molecular sieve (OMS-2) materials. Very high surface area of 288 ± 1 m 2 /g and small particle sizes in the range of 1–7 nm were produced under nonthermal conditions. No further processing such as c…
The photocatalytic activity of meso-tetraphenylporphyrins with different metal centers (Fe, Co, Mn and Cu) adsorbed on TiO(2) (Degussa P25) surface has been investigated by carrying out the photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible and ultraviolet light irradiation. The photocatalysts were characterized by…
Motivated by a recent photochlorination experiment [B. Li et al., ACS Nano 5, 5957 (2011)], we study theoretically the interaction of chlorine with graphene. In previous theoretical studies, covalent binding between chlorine and carbon atoms has been elusive upon adsorption to the graphene basal plane. Interestingly,…
A study based on density functional theory calculations was performed for the three charge states of interstitial hydrogen in Yttria. The present calculations were carried out by employing the GGA-PBE and the HSE06 exchange-correlation functional. It is observed that the ground state H$^0$ and H$^-$ configurations are…
The correlation of odd electrons in graphene turns out to be significant so that the species should be attributed to correlated ones. This finding profoundly influences the computational strategy addressing it to multireference computational schemes. Owing to serious problems related to the schemes realization, a comp…
Through direct nanoparticle nucleation and growth on nitrogen doped, reduced graphene oxide sheets and cation substitution of spinel Co3O4 nanoparticles, a manganese-cobalt spinel MnCo2O4/graphene hybrid was developed as a highly efficient electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline conditions. Ele…
A comparative study on as cast and annealed rare earth bulk metallic glass (BMG) with composition Tb36Sm20Al24Co20 has been carried out by magnetization measurements. The as cast amorphous sample shows non-ergodic magnetization but does not show the behavior expected from magnetic glass. After annealing, the partially…
