The lithium-air (Li-O$_2$) battery has received enormous attention as a possible alternative to current state-of-the-art rechargeable Li-ion batteries given their high theoretical specific energy. However, the maximum discharge capacity in nonaqueous Li-O$_2$ batteries is limited to a small fraction of its theoretical…
Temperature-dependent crystallographic and magnetic studies on stoichiometric single crystals of LiCu2O2 are reported. The magnetic properties are similar to earlier findings demonstrating antiferromagnetic ordering below 25 K. Evidence of magnetoelastic coupling is observed in the thermal expansion along the c-direct…
Mn$_3$O$_4$ is a spin frustrated magnet that adopts a tetragonally distorted spinel structure at ambient conditions and a CaMn$_2$O$_4$-type postspinel structure at high pressure. We conducted both optical measurements and \emph{ab} \emph{initio} calculations, and systematically studied the electronic band structures…
Engineering surfaces that promote rapid drop detachment is of importance to a wide range of applications including anti-icing, dropwise condensation6, and self-cleaning. Here we show how superhydrophobic surfaces patterned with lattices of submillimetre-scale posts decorated with nano-textures can generate a counter-i…
Defects in the surface region of a reducible oxide, as TiO2, have a profound effect on applications, while their nature is very much influenced by the possibility of small polaron formation. Here, we probe rutile (110) and anatase (101) single crystals via high-resolution ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and res…
Magnetic nanowires supporting field- and current-driven domain wall motion are envisioned for new methods of information storage and processing. A major obstacle for their practical use is the domainwall velocity, which is traditionally limited due to the Walker breakdown occurring when the forcing field or current re…
Valence band onset (Ev), valence band tail (VBT) and valence plasmons (VPs) have been studied as a function of sputtering of SnO2 and In2-xSnxO3 (ITO) thin films, using ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). Decrease in Ev with respect to the Fermi level and increase in the density of energy levels of VBT have…
Integral-type nonlocal damage models describe the fracture process zones by regular strain profiles insensitive to the size of finite elements, which is achieved by incorporating weighted spatial averages of certain state variables into the stress-strain equations. However, there is no consensus yet how the influence…
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) confined along metal-dielectric interface have attracted a relevant interest in the area of ultracompact photonic circuits, photovoltaic devices and other applications due to their strong field confinement and enhancement. This paper investigates a novel cascade neural network (NN) ar…
Heterojunctions between three-dimensional (3D) semiconductors with different bandgaps are the basis of modern light-emitting diodes, diode lasers, and high-speed transistors. Creating analogous heterojunctions between different two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors would enable band engineering within the 2D plane and o…
Constructing three-dimensionally interconnected nanoscale networks is critical for porous materials to achieving enhanced pore accessibility and fast mass transport. Currently, development of facile and effective methods for fabrication of three-dimensional polymeric and carbonaceous networks with a well-defined nanos…
Abstract The potential of modern methods for X‐ray diffraction Line Profile Analysis can be fully exploited with data collected at synchrotron radiation beamlines, provided that optics and experimental set‐up are suitably designed and characterized. The Material Characterization by X‐ray Diffraction beamline, MCX, at…
The present work reports the synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures produced either under microwave irradiation using low cost domestic microwave equipment or by conventional heating, both under hydrothermal conditions. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, roo…
Zwitterionic carboxybetaine and sulfobetaine materials have shown an excellent ability to resist nonspecific protein adsorption. It is desirable to obtain a better understanding of zwitterionic materials based on their molecular structures. This work aims to understand the roles of charged groups in zwitterionic moiet…
In this work, a new MoS2/CoOOH hybrid material was successfully synthesized by a facile wet chemical method, and its structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. A morphological study showed that, due to the different sizes of the two components, the resulting MoS2/CoOOH hybrid displayed a diso…
The article presents a review of new techniques being used for the preparation of liposomes. A total of 28 publications were examined. In addition to the theories, characteristics and problems associated with traditional methods, the advantages and drawbacks of the latest techniques were reviewed. In the light of deve…
CeO 2 cubes with {100} facets, octahedra with {111} facets, and wires with highly defective structures were utilized to probe the structure-dependent reactivity of acetaldehyde. Using temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), temperature-programmed surface reactions (TPSR), and in situ infrared spectroscopy, it was det…
The hydration of graphene oxide (GO) membranes is the key to understand their remarkable selectivity in permeation of water molecules and humidity-dependent gas separation. We investigated the hydration of single GO layers as a function of humidity using scanning force microscopy, and we determined the single interlay…
In this study, we developed a simple and powerful method to fabricate flexible and lightweight graphene-based composites that provide high electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance. Electrospun waterborne polyurethane (WPU) that featured sulfonate functional groups was used as the polymer matrix, which…
Abstract While much research has been aimed at new approaches to the healing of cross-linked polymers, there is a dearth of effort in the healing of renewable cross-linked polymers. In this study, the healing ability of renewable polylactide-based vitrimers containing Sn(Oct)2 was investigated. The vitrimers were prep…
