Abstract This study demonstrated the use of a magnetic superhydrophobic polymer nanosphere cage derived from a Pickering emulsion as a framework for miceller catalysis in biphasic media. We designed this system through the covalent stabilisation of active site (2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine 1‐oxyl)‐grafted amphiphiles…

Microcracking during service is a critical problem, which can be particularly detrimental to the durability of polymers and polymer composite structures. Materials with self-healing ability are capable to partially or completely repair damages, thus increasing the life of the structural component. One of the self-heal…

We report an enhanced conversion efficiency of femtosecond-laser treated silicon solar cells by surface modification of anisotropic-etching. The etching improves minority carrier lifetime inside modified black silicon area substantially; moreover, after the etching, an inverted pyramids/upright pyramids mixed texture…

Starch grafted with four different methacrylates was compression molded to form thermoplastic films with good strength and water stability. Starch is an inexpensive and biodegradable polymer but is nonthermoplastic and needs to be chemically modified to make starch suitable for various applications. In this research,…

ABSTRACT Over the past 15 years, block copolymer lithography has emerged as its own research field within the broader block copolymer and polymer thin film communities. This distinction is associated with the unique requirements set by the semiconductor device industry, such as low‐defect densities, precise feature re…

A method is proposed for controlling optical polarization using metasurfaces formed from arrays of planar chiral-patterned dielectric metamolecules with embedded achiral plasmonic nanostructures. At plasmon resonance, the subwavelength plasmonic nanoinclusions induce enhanced polarization of the surrounding dielectric…

From the analysis of high-resolution Si 2p photoelectron and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra, we show that core level excitations of epitaxial silicene on ZrB2(0001) thin films are characteristically different from those of sp(3)-hybridized silicon. In particular, it is revealed that the low…

Magnetic cellulosic papers have attracted considerable interest because of their potential applications in advanced information storage devices and security papers. However, these papers are often mechanically weak and structurally and magnetically in-plane isotropic, which restrict their applications especially where…

We present a metamaterial, consisting of a cross structure and a metal mesh filter, that forms a composite with greater functional bandwidth than any terahertz (THz) metamaterial to date. Metamaterials traditionally have a narrow usable bandwidth that is much smaller than common THz sources, such as photoconductive an…

Polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystals (PS-BPLC) have become an increasingly important technology trend for information display and photonics applications. BPLCs exhibit several attractive features, such as reasonably wide temperature range, submillisecond gray-to-gray response time, no need for alignment layer…

Polycrystalline BiFeO 3 was synthesized at 400°C–700°C. Distinctive difference in the magnetic and dielectric properties was observed between the samples sintered at 400°C–500°C and those sintered at 600°C–700°C. The former showed ferromagnetic‐like hysteresis loops with an increased magnetization of 0.54 emu/g, where…
