Reduction-sensitive shell-sheddable glyco-nanoparticles were designed and developed based on poly(ε-caprolactone)-graft-SS-lactobionic acid (PCL-g-SS-LBA) copolymer for efficient hepatoma-targeting delivery of doxorubicin (DOX). PCL-g-SS-LBA was prepared by ring-opening copolymerization of ε-caprolactone and pyridyl d…
Seed-mediated surfactant-assisted growth is widely used as the most effective method for gold nanorod (NR) synthesis. Using prepared nanorods as seeds for further overgrowth can increase the dimensional tunability of the final particles. However, overgrowth in usual cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant sol…
The structural and magnetic properties of nanostructured Co-rich transition-metal alloys, Co(100-x)TMx (TM = Hf, Zr and 10 ≤ x ≤ 18), were investigated. The alloys were prepared under non-equilibrium conditions using cluster-deposition and/or melt-spinning methods. The high-anisotropy HfCo7 and Zr2Co11 structures were…
Abstracts The microstructural and mechanical properties of an ultrafine‐grained (UFG) Al–Zn alloy processed by high‐pressure torsion (HPT) are investigated using depth‐sensing indentations, focused ion beam, scanning electron microscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy. Emphasis is placed on the microstru…
To minimize the toxicity of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in cancer treatment, we have developed a technique, which utilizes lesser amount of AuNPs while exhibiting increased treatment efficiency. Rifampicin (RF) is known for its ability to enhance the accumulation of anticancer drugs in multidrug resistant (MDR) cancer…
MnBi has attracted much attention in recent years due to its potential as a rare-earth-free permanent magnet material. It is unique because its coercivity increases with increasing temperature, which makes it a good hard phase material for exchange coupling nanocomposite magnets. MnBi phase is difficult to obtain, par…
We investigate the magneto-optical properties of a nanostructured metamaterial comprised of arrays of nickel nanorods embedded in an anodized aluminum oxide template. The rods are grown using a self-assembly bottom-up technique that provides a uniform, quasi-hexagonal array over a large area, quickly and at low cost.…
We report Bessel-like beam formation of acoustic waves by means of an axisymmetric grating of rigid tori. The results show that the generated beam pattern is similar to that of Bessel beams, characterized by elongated non-diffracting focal spots. A multiple foci structure is observed, due to the finite size of the len…
Based on first-principles calculations, we predict Bi${}_{2}$TeI, a stoichiometric compound that is synthesized, to be a weak topological insulator (TI) in layered subvalent bismuth telluroiodides. Within a bulk energy gap of 80 meV, two Dirac-cone-like topological surface states exist on the side surface perpendicula…
Lanthanides are vital components in lighting, imaging technologies and future quantum memory applications due to their narrow optical transitions and long spin coherence times. Recently, diamond has become a preeminent platform for realization of many experiments in quantum information science. In this work, we demons…
Reflection and implantation of low energy helium (He) ions by tungsten (W) substrate are studied using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Motivated by the ITER divertor design, our study considers a range of W substrate temperatures (300 K, 1000 K, 1500 K), a range of He atom incidence energies ($\le$100 eV) and a r…
We report on the current-induced magnetization switching of a three-terminal perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction by spin-orbit torque and its read-out using the tunnelling magnetoresistance (TMR) effect. The device is composed of a perpendicular Ta/FeCoB/MgO/FeCoB stack on top of a Ta current line. The magnetizatio…
Plasmonic metamaterials designed for optical frequency have to be shrunk down to few 10th of nanometer which turns their manufacturing cumbersome. Here, we shift the performance of metamaterial down to ultraviolet (UV) by using ultrathin nanocomposite as a tunable plasmonic metamaterial fabricated with tandem co-depos…
Quantum dots are a promising new candidate for the emissive material in light-emitting devices for display applications. The fabrication of such devices by solution processing allows considerable cost reduction and is therefore very attractive for industrial manufacturers. We report all solution-processed colloidal qu…
The fundamental aspects of spin-dependent transport processes and their interplay with temperature gradients, as given by the spin Seebeck coefficient, are still largely unexplored and a multitude of contributing factors must be considered. We used density functional theory together with a Monte-Carlo-based statistica…
CdIn 2 S 4 thiospinel was studied by means of first-principles calculations in both generalized gradient and local density approximations (GGA and LDA). One of the main results of this paper is that the controversy regarding the character of the CdIn 2 S 4 band gap previously encountered in the literature was clearly…
As a methodology for controlling the carrier transport of topological insulators (TIs), a flexible tuning in carrier number on the surface states (SSs) of three-dimensional TIs by surface modifications using organic molecules is described. The principle of the carrier tuning and its type conversion of TIs presented in…
Persistent currents can arise in normal-metal rings due to a magnetic flux threading the ring in equilibrium. However, can persistent currents arise in absence of magnetic flux in the same normal-metal rings? Yes they can but in a non-equilibrium set-up. This is known as current magnification. In this work we show tha…
We demonstrated the control of ferromagnetism in a surface quantum well containing a 5 nm-thick n-type ferromagnetic semiconductor (FMS) (In,Fe)As layer sandwiched between two InAs layers, by manipulating the carrier wavefunction. The Curie temperature (TC) of the (In,Fe)As layer was effectively changed by up to 12 K…
Solotronics, optoelectronics based on solitary dopants, is an emerging field of research and technology reaching the ultimate limit of miniaturization. It aims at exploiting quantum properties of individual ions or defects embedded in a semiconductor matrix. It has already been shown that optical control of a magnetic…
