Mesoporous carbons (MCs) facilitate mass transport in pore networks and enhance the performance of porous carbon. By combining a nanosilica template with KOH activation, highly porous MCs with BET specific surface areas ( S BET ) greater than 1000 m 2 /g were synthesized from unmodified commercial coal tar pitch. The…

We study the Josephson effect through a magnetic molecule with anisotropic properties. Performing calculations in the tunneling regime, we show that the exchange coupling between the electron spin on the molecule and the molecular spin can trigger a transition from the $\ensuremath{\pi}$ state to the 0 state, and we s…

We report the static magnetization measurements of a few graphene layers on hexagonal boron nitride substrates (gra/h-BN) prepared by chemical vapor deposition. No ferromagnetic signal is detected for the gra/h-BN structures at temperatures between 5 and 300 K. At high temperatures ($T>100$ K), the gra/h-BN structu…

The enzyme subtilisin from Bacillus licheniformis (4.1 nm × 7.8 nm × 3.7 nm) was easily immobilized onto a mesoporous silica (MPS) surface by a direct one-step method and the amount of subtilisin immobilized on each functionalized MPS surface was similar (approximately 0.30 mg of enzyme/mg of MPS support). The catalyt…

Ideally, graphene may be regarded as a strictly 2-D structure. However, as it exists in a 3-D world, perturbations often distort this ideal 2-D structure. Under a variety of conditions graphene has been shown to develop ripples, which may have undesirable consequences for a variety of properties of graphene, such as e…

Pressure induced insertion of liquid media was studied for graphite oxide (GO) immersed in excess amounts of aqueous copper acetate and sucrose solutions and compared to previous experiments with GO immersed in solute-free water media. Compression of GO in copper acetate solution resulted in significant enhancement of…

In order to improve the blood compatibility, poly(ether urethane) (PEU) and fluorinated phosphorylcholine polyurethane (P-HFPC) were used to prepare PU/P-HFPC blends by solution mixing. The hemocompatibility in vitro was evaluated with protein adsorption and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contact tests. It was found that…

We demonstrate guided-mode resonance filters featuring an amorphous TiO(2) layer fabricated by atomic layer deposition on a polymeric substrate. The thermal properties of such filters are studied in detail by taking into account both thermal expansion of the structure and thermo-optic coefficients of the materials. We…

Abstract The long‐term stress accelerating aging behaviour of polyamide 6 (PA6) was studied by exposure to UV irradiation. The aging behaviour and mechanism were investigated in terms of creep behaviour, mechanical properties, chemical structure, crystallization and orientation behaviour. It was found that the creep d…

In an attempt to obtain reliable first-principles phonon dispersions of random alloys, we have developed a method to calculate the dynamical matrix, with respect to the wavevector space of the ideal lattice, by averaging over the force constants of a special quasi-random structure. Without additional approximations be…
