We present a molecular dynamics simulation study of nanocomposites containing homopolymer-grafted particles in a homopolymer matrix, where the graft and matrix chemistries are identical, to elucidate the effect of polymer flexibility on the wetting of the grafted layer by the matrix and the nanocomposite morphology. D…
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were melt-mixed with polyamide6 (PA6) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer (ABS) to obtain electrically conducting composites. MWNTs were noncovalently modified with sodium salt of 6-aminocaproic acid (MWNTs-m1) and 3-pyrenealdehyde (MWNTs-m2) to 'deagglomerate' MWNTs. Ram…
Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to investigate the conformation and dynamics of an aspartic acid molecule near the {104} and {110} planes of a CaCO 3 calcite crystal, near the acute and obtuse [114̅] step edges on the {104} plane, and near kinks formed at the step edges. The simulations indicate that the…
The SO 2 -poisoning on a Cu-supported Ti–Zr mixed oxide catalyst (Cu/Ti 0.7 Zr 0.3 O 2−δ ) in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x with C 3 H 6 was investigated, and the different effects of SO 2 at varying reaction temperatures were clarified by in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy combined w…
Magnetization measurements and magnetotransmission spectroscopy of the solid oxygen α phase were performed in ultrahigh magnetic fields of up to 193 T. An abrupt increase in magnetization with large hysteresis was observed when pulsed magnetic fields greater than 120 T were applied. Moreover, the transmission of light…
As chiral metamaterials become increasingly more technologically relevant, scalable, yet proficient nanofabrication methods will be needed for their production. Dynamic shadowing growth (DSG) that takes advantage of the vapor shadowing effect during physical vapor deposition is a simple and powerful tool to produce ch…
Helium implantation from transmutation reactions is a major cause of embrittlement and dimensional instability of structural components in nuclear energy systems. Development of novel materials with improved radiation resistance, which is of the utmost importance for progress in nuclear energy, requires guidelines to…
Abstract We experimentally investigate the effect of surface-absorbed colloidal particles on the dynamics of a leaky dielectric drop in a uniform DC electric field. Depending on the particle polarizabilty, coverage and the electrical field intensity, particles assemble into various patterns such as an equatorial belt,…
Oxidation of CO over size-selected Ptn clusters (n = 1, 2, 4, 7, 10, 14, 18) supported on alumina thin films grown on Re(0001) was studied using temperature-programmed reaction/desorption (TPR/TPD), X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS/UPS), and low energy ion scattering spectroscopy (ISS). The activi…
Various solid Cu-containing catalysts were prepared. Their performance in the selective catalytic reduction of NO x using propene as reducing agent from 150 to 450 °C in an O 2 -rich model exhaust gas in the presence of water vapor was investigated. This research aimed at the development of a catalytic NO x to N 2 (De…
The Raman spectrum of NaAlSi2O6 jadeite is simulated and compared with two recent experimental data sets. In one experiment, only 17 (out of 30 symmetry allowed) peaks and a qualitative estimate of the intensities are provided. In the second case, the digitalized spectrum is available, from which we have been able to…
The first example of cell imaging using two independent emission components from a dinuclear d/f complex is reported. A water-stable, cell-permeable Ir(III) /Eu(III) dyad undergoes partial Ir→Eu energy transfer following two-photon excitation of the Ir unit at 780 nm. Excitation in the near-IR region generated simulta…
Iron is an important redox-active element that is ubiquitous in both engineered and natural environments. In this study, the retention mechanism of Fe(II) on clay minerals was investigated using macroscopic sorption experiments combined with Mössbauer and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy.…
Ba0.70Ca0.30TiO3-(BCT),Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3-(BZT) ceramics were fabricated by conventional mixed oxide route to develop inorganic dielectric materials suitable for use as an insulator with high dielectric constant and low energy loss for capacitor applications. The structural phase transition, ferroelectric, dielectric an…
We propose a comprehensive scheme for the efficient design of graded optical metasurfaces capable of rerouting the impinging energy at will in a flexible way. We show that carefully designed conjoined optical nanoelements may be used as basic building blocks to arbitrarily shape the reflected phase front, while provid…
The present study demonstrates exopolysaccharide production by an osmotolerant marine isolate and also describes further application of the purified polysaccharide for production of colloidal suspension of silver nanoparticles with narrow size distribution. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S r RNA gene sequencing reve…
Multicomponent self-assembly, wherein two unique donor precursors are combined with a single metal acceptor instead of the more common two-component assembly, can be achieved by selecting Lewis-basic sites and metal nodes that select for heteroligated coordination spheres. Platinum(II) ions show a thermodynamic prefer…
We demonstrate that catalyst-assisted hydrogen spillover doping of VO2 thin films significantly alters the metal-insulator transition characteristics and stabilizes the metallic rutile phase at room temperature. With hydrogen inserted into the VO2 lattice, high resolution X-ray diffraction reveals expansion of the V-V…
Water-soluble fluorescent N-doped carbon dots (N-C dots) obtained by enzyme catalyzed degradation of C3N4 show high stability, good biocompatibility, and can be promising candidates for bioimaging.
Super liquid-repellent layers need to have a high impalement pressure and high contact angles, in particular a high apparent receding contact angle. Here, we demonstrate that to achieve both, the features constituting the layer should be as small as possible. Therefore, two models for super liquid-repellent layers are…
