We have used density functional theory to investigate the sensing property of a hydrogenated graphene sheet (graphane) towards CO, H2O and NO2 gas molecules. Though the pristine graphane sheet is found not to have sufficient affinity towards the mentioned gas molecules, the defected sheet (removing few surface H atoms…
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies have reached a level of quality that justifies considering rapid manufacturing for medical applications. Herein, we introduce a new approach using 3D printing to simplify and improve the fabrication of human heart valve scaffolds by tissue engineering (TE). Custom-made huma…
We predict and demonstrate that a disorder-induced carrier density inhomogeneity causes magnetoresistance (MR) in a two-dimensional electron system. Our experiments on graphene show a quadratic MR persisting far from the charge neutrality point. Effective medium calculations show that for charged impurity disorder, th…
This reported research analyses and compares the bandwidth and absolute frequency response of a multi‐layer graphene nanoribbon (MLGNR) and a multi‐walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) at local, semi‐global and global interconnect lengths. The transfer function of the driver‐interconnect‐load system is obtained by represent…
We propose a third-order time-dependent perturbation theory approach to describe the chemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy of molecules interacting with two-dimensional (2D) surfaces such as an ideal 2D metal and graphene, which are both 2D metallic monolayers. A detailed analysis is performed for all the possi…
We report a detailed investigation of magnetic relaxation and memory effects in ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.9}$${\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.1}$${\mathrm{CoO}}_{3}$ single crystal from dc magnetization measurements. The analysis of magnetic relaxation at different temperatures and magnetic fields below the freezing temperature ${T}_{f}$ re…
In order to capture savings in energy and ambitious environmental targets, biodegradable composite foams of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) supported by cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were prepared through unidirectional freeze-drying technology. Effects of the content of CNF, the solid content of the precursor suspension, and…
Molecular simulations of poly(styrene- co -vinylbenzyl chloride) hyper-cross-linked polymers (HCPs) are prepared using a “virtual synthesis” approach with vinylbenzyl chloride contents ranging from 25 to 100%. The trends in porosity from the simulations are in good agreement with experimental data, where surface areas…
Charging of a conducting tubular nanopore in a nanostructured electrode is treated using an exactly solvable 1D lattice model, including ion correlations screened by ion-image interactions. Analytical expressions are obtained for the accumulated charge and capacitance as a function of voltage. They show that the mecha…
The surfaces of ambient-temperature superhydrophilic tilting silicon nanowires (TSNWs) exhibit an anisotropic wetting performance at high temperature and a deposited drop moves directionally on this surface. A vapor film forming beneath the drop after spreading reduces the surface friction and the heat transfer effici…
Zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been used historically for evaluating the toxicity of environmental and aqueous toxicants, and there is an emerging literature reporting toxic effects of manufactured nanoparticles (NPs) in zebrafish embryos. Few researches, however, are focused on the neurotoxicity on adult zebrafish after…
Two-phase Cu-Ni magnetic metallic foams (MMFs) with tunable composition have been prepared by electrodeposition taking advantage of hydrogen co-evolution as a source of porosity. It is observed that Ni tends to deposit inside the porous network defined by the Cu building blocks. Contact angle measurements reveal that…
The emergence of the nematic order and fluctuations has been discussed as a central issue in Fe-based superconductors. To clarify the origin of the nematicity, we focus on the shear modulus C(66) and the Raman quadrupole susceptibility χ(x)(2)-y(2))(Raman). Because of the Aslamazov-Larkin vertex correction, the nemati…
Construction of porous organic polymers (POPs) as asymmetric catalysts remains as an important but challenging task. Herein, we exploit the "bottom-up" strategy to facilely synthesize an α,α,α',α'-tetraaryl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanol (TADDOL)-based chiral porous polymer (TADDOL-CPP) for highly efficient asymmetric c…
The interaction between graphene and Ni(111) surface has been investigated systematically by density functional theory calculations, in which two different functionals PBE and optB88-vdW are used. PBE calculation indicates no binding between graphene and Ni(111) surface, while optB88-vdW, which is evidenced to conside…
Tests were conducted to investigate the influence of using nanomaterials in the modification and stabilization of soft soil. The soft soils were collected from two sites and treated with three nanomaterial types (nano-copper, nano-clay and nano-magnesium). Nanomaterials were added in small amount (≤1.0%) by dry weight…
The straightforward synthesis of a series of 3-cyanoformazanate boron difluoride dyes is reported. Phenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl and 4-cyanophenyl N-substituted derivatives were isolated and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, cyclic voltammetry, and UV/Vis spectroscopy. The compounds were demonstrated to…
Three pairs of inorganic–organic hybrid compounds respectively based on [Mo 6 O 19 ] 2– /[Mo 8 O 26 ] 4–, [PW 12 ] 3– and [P 2 W 18 ] 6– anions were obtained at different pH values under hydrothermal conditions, namely, [H 2 bib][Mo 6 O 19 ] ( 1 ), Cu II (bib) 1.5 (H 2 O)(β-Mo 8 O 26 ) 0.5 ( 2 ), [Hbib] 2 [HPW 12 O 40…
Self-healing of polymer films often takes place as the molecules diffuse across a damaged region, above their melting temperature. Using molecular dynamics simulations we probe the healing of polymer films and compare the results with those obtained for thermal welding of homopolymer slabs. These two processes differ…
Flexible integrated circuits with complex functionalities are the missing link for the active development of wearable electronic devices. Here, we report a scalable approach to fabricate self-aligned graphene microwave transistors for the implementation of flexible low-noise amplifiers and frequency mixers, two fundam…
