The feasibility and mechanism of five molecular sieves-supported palladium catalysts in elimination of benzene, toluene, and ethyl acetate were investigated. The experimental results indicate that Pd particles are well dispersed on these porous supports with size of 2−10 nm, while mesoporous supports with a larger spe…

Gesprengte Ketten: Ein biogesteuertes Pfortenmaterial entstand durch Aufpfropfen eines Lactosederivats auf die Porenausgänge eines mesoporösen Trägers. Die Galactosidase-induzierte Hydrolyse der β1→4-glycosidischen Bindung der Lactose-Einheit (roter Rahmen im Bild) führt zur Freisetzung eines in den Poren des Hybridma…

Abstract Periodic TiO 2 nanorod arrays with hexagonal nonclose‐packed (hncp) arrangements are synthesized by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) using polystyrene colloidal monolayers as templates and with subsequent annealing in air. The hncp‐array formation is governed by in situ volume shrinkage of amorphous TiO 2 nanoro…

A hydrogen-bonded layer-by-layer (LbL) technique was used to build multilayers of neutral, temperature-responsive polymers such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM), poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PVCL), poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME), or poly(acrylamide) (PAAm) with a polycarboxylic acid such as poly(acrylic acid) (PA…

Electronic correlation effects, usually associated with open d or f shells, have so far been considered in p orbitals only sporadically for the localized 2p states of first-row elements. We demonstrate that the partial band occupation and the metallic band-structure character as predicted by local density calculations…

The directed self-assembly of block copolymer (BCP) offers a new route to perfect nanolithographic patterning at sub-50 nm length scale with molecular scale precision. We have explored the feasibility of using the BCP approach versus the conventional electron beam (e-beam) lithography to create highly dense dot patter…

Besides the classical atom/ion/molecule based mechanism, nonclassical crystallization provides a nanoparticle-based crystallization pathway toward single crystals. However, there is a lack of experimentally established strategies for engineering a range of crystalline microstructures from common nanoparticles by noncl…

Using ab-initio calculations, we study the electronic structure of gallium-doped germanium, which was found recently to be a superconductor, with a critical temperature of 0.5 Kelvins, and a particularly low density of Cooper pairs. The calculations of the electronic properties reveal that no sign of an impurity band…

We consider the roughening of small angle grain boundaries consisting of arrays of dislocations and found two transitions, corresponding to fluctuations of the dislocations along and perpendicular to the boundaries. The latter contributes to a large scale fluctuation of the orientation of the crystal but the former do…

Surface and size effect on the order parameter fluctuations and critical phenomena in the intensively studied 3D-confined nanosized systems with long-range order was not considered theoretically, while the calculations for bulk samples and thick films were performed long ago. Since widely used magnetic resonance, diff…

Applications of nanoparticles in biology require that the nanoparticles remain stable in solutions containing high concentrations of proteins and salts, as well as in cell culture media. In this work, we developed simple protocols for the coating of sub-10 nm nanoparticles and evaluated the colloidal stability of disp…

Micelles of a diblock copolymer composed of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(2-tetrahydropyranyl methacrylate) (PEO-b-PTHPMA) in aqueous solution could be disrupted by high-frequency ultrasound (1.1 MHz). It was found that, upon exposure to a high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) beam at room temperature, the pH value…

Dissipative spin-tunneling transitions at biased resonances in molecular magnets such as ${\text{Mn}}_{12}$ Ac are controlled by the dipolar field that can bring the system on and off resonance. It is shown that this leads to spin relaxation in form of propagating fronts of tunneling, with the dipolar field adjusting…

We present a facile and effective route to fabricate monolithic nanoporous silver (NPS) ribbons through chemical dealloying of melt-spun Al−Ag alloys comprising α-Al(Ag) and Ag 2 Al under free corrosion conditions. The microstructure of the NPS ribbons was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron…

We report on high-field magnetization measurements for a number of layered vanadium phosphates that were recently recognized as spin-1/2 frustrated square lattice compounds with ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor couplings (J_1) and antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor couplings (J_2). The saturation fields of the mate…

We present the quantitative interpretation for the glass-like behavior of thermal conductivities $κ(T)$ for type-I clathrate compounds involving off-centered guest ions. It is shown that the dipole-dipole interaction generated in cage/guest-ion systems is crucial to reproduce the characteristics of thermal conductivit…

We introduce a novel and versatile approach to the corrosion protection by use of "smart" laser-controllable coating. The main advantage of the proposed technique is that one could terminate the corrosion process by very intensive healing after an appearance of corrosion centers using local laser irradiation. It is al…

An interplay between the increase in the number of carriers and the decrease in the scattering time is expected to result in a saturation of the in-plane resistivity, $ρ_{ab}$, in graphite above room temperature. Contrary to this expectation, we observe a pronounced increase in $ρ_{ab}$ in the interval between 300 and…
