ABSTRACT Nano‐ and microfibers have a myriad of applications ranging from filtration, composites, energy harvesting, to tissue engineering and drug delivery. Electrospinning, the most common method to produce such fibers, has many limitations including low fiber output and solvent dependency. Centrifugal spinning is a…

Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) exhibit superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase mimetic activities. Therefore, based on its catalytic activities, CNPs can potentially be used to treat diseases associated with oxidative stress. The potency of CNPs can be hindered by ion interaction due to chemical modifications. The…

Heteroepitaxy of two-dimensional (2D) crystals, such as hexagonal boron nitride (BN) on graphene (G), can occur at the edge of an existing heterointerface. Understanding strain relaxation at such 2D laterally fused interface is useful in fabricating heterointerfaces with a high degree of atomic coherency and structura…

Spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (SP-STM) has been used extensively to study magnetic properties of nanostructures. Using SP-STM to visualize magnetic order in strongly correlated materials on an atomic scale is highly desirable, but challenging. We achieved this goal in iron tellurium (Fe(1+ y)Te), the no…

PURPOSE: Unresectable chest wall recurrences of breast cancer (CWR) in heavily pretreated patients are especially difficult to treat. We hypothesised that thermally enhanced drug delivery using low temperature liposomal doxorubicin (LTLD), given with mild local hyperthermia (MLHT), will be safe and effective in this p…

We present the construction of a dense, quasicrystalline packing of regular tetrahedra with icosahedral symmetry. This quasicrystalline packing was achieved through two independent approaches. The first approach originates in the Elser-Sloane 4D quasicrystal. A 3D slice of the quasicrystal contains a few types of prot…
