Solid–liquid phase behaviors of the hexadecane–octadecane ( n -C 16 H 34 –C 18 H 38, C 16 –C 18 ) system in the bulk, and confined in controlled porous glass (CPG) are investigated using differential scanning calorimetry and temperature-dependent powder X-ray diffraction. Bulk C 16 –C 18 mixtures show the special rota…
Electron-hole symmetry is one of the unique properties of graphene that is generally absent in most semiconductors because of the different conduction and valence band structures. Here we report on the manipulation of electron-hole symmetry in the low-energy band structure of twisted bilayer graphene, where symmetric…
In this study, the hydrogen production from hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) in the presence of the catalytic properties of Ni(0), which is reduced from NiCl2.6H2O, was investigated with a dielectric barrier discharge plasma method. The hydrogen production from NaBH4 hydrolysis with Ni(0) catalyst prepared in…
To overcome instability of the lotus-inspired surfaces, slippery lubricant-infused surfaces inspired by Nepenthes pitcher plant were fabricated by the combination of fluorinated hierarchical texture and perfluoropolyether (PFPE). The hierarchical structures composed of facets, cavities, and nanoflakes were formed on t…
In this study, the effect of an atmospheric-pressure plasma treatment on the surface properties of sugar maple (Acer saccharum March.) and black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) was analyzed by contact angle measurement and a water-based coating pull-off testing. The plasma gases used were Ar, N2, CO2, and air. It was fo…
Photocatalytic disinfection of gram-negative (G−) Pseudomonas fluorescens and gram-positive (G+) Macrococcus caseolyticus spoilage bacteria by nano-TiO2 under different experimental conditions and its disinfection mechanism were investigated. The disinfection mechanism was determined by the release of cellular K+, lip…
Nanogels (NGs) are considered as one of the most suitable nanocarrier matrices for drug, gene and protein delivery. There are many methods of synthesis of NGs but polymerizable bioionic liquids are not being applied so far for the synthesis of such nanocarriers. The synthesis of a stimuli‐responsive NG system having a…
This study investigates the influence of carbon black from carbonized Jatropha seed shell as a filler that was obtained by furnace method at 600 o C on the material properties of vinyl ester based biocomposites. The biocomposites were characterized for mechanical, thermal, and morphological properties. The tensile str…
Lead zirconate titanate, Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 or PZT, is one of the most widely investigated ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials due to its superior properties. However, the intrinsic properties of PZT have not been directly measured due to the lack of fabrication of single crystals even though a basic understanding of i…
Down to the last detail: Nanostructured solid catalysts were already known in the early 20th century, but their exact structure was unclear. Nowadays, the arrangement of atoms and particles in solids can be manipulated and analyzed down to the atomic scale (see image). The use of specific highly active catalysts enabl…
We study the optical properties of gold nanorod (Au NR) dimers connected end-to-end by a thin metallic junction. The plasmonic oscillations along the long axis of the dimer gives rise to two dominant modes: a bonding dimer plasmon emerging from the dipolar mode of each individual nanorod and a charge transfer plasmon…
We report the lattice thermal conductivity (κ) of cubic boron nitride (c-BN) under pressure calculated using density functional theory. Pressure was used to manipulate the c-BN phonon dispersion and study its effect on thermal conductivity. These results were compared to c-BN's mass-equivalent, nonpolar counterpart, d…
We investigated the carrier dynamics near basal stacking faults (BSFs) in m-plane ZnO epitaxial film. The behaviors of the type-II quantum wells related to the BSFs are verified through time-resolved and time-integrated photoluminescence. The decay time of the emission of BSFs is observed to have a higher power law va…
Thermal properties of linear citronellyl diesters were studied by TG/DSC/FTIR/QMS-coupled method in inert and oxidative atmospheres. The diesters decompose in one main step in inert atmosphere. As main pyrolysis products, the formation of mainly monoterpene hydrocarbons, acid anhydrides, monoacids, cyclic ketones, ald…
We report magnetotransport properties of double heterointerfaces in LaAlO3/SrTiO3/LaAlO3/SrTiO3(001) (LAO/STO/LAO/STO). A strong nonlinearity in the Hall resistivity is found when the temperature is below 80 K. This effect is attributed to multichannel conduction of interfacial charges generated in double heterostruct…
Preparation and characterization of pure metal soaps and investigation of their effects on poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) dehydrochlorination were the objectives of the present study. Magnesium stearate (MgSt 2 ), cobalt stearate (CoSt 2 ), and copper stearate (CuSt 2 ) were prepared by a precipitation method. An aqueous…
Nanoporous gold film (NPGF) composed of gold nanoparticles was used to cover a large Si nanowire array (SiNWA) by simple metal-assisted chemical etching and metal reduction processes. Three-dimensional SiNWA/NPGF was employed as an active substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The results show that th…
The popularity of nanotechnology-based sensing technologies has rapidly expanded within the past decade. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is one such technique capable of chemically specific and highly sensitive measurements. The careful preparation of SERS-active nanoprobes is immensely vital for biological…
ABSTRACT Series of polyimide (PI)/mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) nanocomposite films with different contents of MSNs were successfully prepared via a simple wet impregnation method. The morphologies, microstructures, mechanical properties, transmittance, and thermal properties of the prepared PI and the PI/MSNs…
This work presents the first application of total-reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) spectrometry, a new and powerful alternative analytical method, to evaluation of the bioaccumulation kinetics of gold nanorods (GNRs) in various tissues upon intravenous administration in mice. The analytical parameters for develope…
