Ferroelectric HfO2 is an attractive candidate for future ferroelectric random access memory devices due to its compatibility with the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor process, conformal deposition, and scaling ability. Crystallization of HfO2 with different dopants and annealing conditions can produce the stabi…
We report the extraordinary performance of an Li-ion battery (full-cell) constructed from one-dimensional nanostructured materials, i.e. nanofibers as cathode, anode, and separator-cum-electrolyte, by scalable electrospinning. Before constructing such a one-dimensional Li-ion battery, electrospun materials are individ…
Protein-protein complexes orchestrate most cellular processes such as transcription, signal transduction and apoptosis. The factors governing their affinity remain elusive however, especially when it comes to describing dissociation rates (koff). Here we demonstrate that, next to direct contributions from the interfac…
Bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3), a new topological insulator, has attracted much attention in recent years owing to its relatively simple band structure and large bulk band gap. Compared to bulk, few-layer Bi2Se3 is recently considered as a highly promising material. Here, we use a liquid-phase exfoliation method to prepare…
Tumor-derived exosomes mediate tumorigenesis by facilitating tumor growth, metastasis, development of drug resistance, and immunosuppression. However, little is known about the exosomes isolated from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in patients with lung neoplasm. Exosomes isolated in plasma and BAL from 30 and 75 patient…
Powder and single crystal Raman spectra of the two most common phases of calcium carbonate are calculated with ab initio techniques (using a "hybrid" functional and a Gaussian-type basis set) and measured both at 80 K and room temperature. Frequencies of the Raman modes are in very good agreement between calculations…
Transparent electrodes have been widely used in electronic devices such as solar cells, displays, and touch screens. Highly flexible transparent electrodes are especially desired for the development of next generation flexible electronic devices. Although indium tin oxide (ITO) is the most commonly used material for t…
With Au nanocages as an example, we recently demonstrated that radioactive (198)Au could be incorporated into the crystal lattice of Au nanostructures for simple and reliable quantification of their in vivo biodistribution by measuring the γ radiation from (198)Au decay and for optical imaging by detecting the Cerenko…
Polymeric micelles, self-assembling nano-constructs of amphiphilic copolymers with a core-shell structure have been used as versatile carriers for delivery of drugs as well as nucleic acids. They have gained immense popularity owing to a host of favorable properties including their capacity to effectively solubilize a…
Spintronics is one of the emerging research fields in nanotechnology and has been growing very rapidly.Studies of spintronics were started after the discovery of giant magnetoresistance in 1988, which utilized spin-polarized electron transport across a non-magnetic metallic layer.Within 10 years, this discovery had be…
In today's world, the use of high voltage cables is increased day by day. High voltage cables are used for the transmission and distribution of electric power. XLPE insulation is widely used now a day. Stress distribution in the insulation is the important factor for the determination of the life of the cable. Grading…
An oblique angle electron beam co-deposition technique was used to fabricate nanostructured Sn based thin films: Sn, Cu-Sn and Cu-Sn-C. The morphological and structural properties of the films were observed via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thin film X-ray diffraction methods (XRD). The cyclic voltammetry (CV…
Recent experiments in serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) have demonstrated the feasibility of obtaining structural information from nanoscale crystals using X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs). However, millions of crystals are required to determine one reliable structure. Here, an improved integration algorithm…
Most commercial white LED lamps use blue chip coated with yellow emitting phosphor. The use of blue excitable red and green phosphors is expected to improve the CRI. Several phosphors, such as $SrGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ and $(Sr,Ba)SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ , have been suggested in the past as green components. However, there are issue…
Few-layer graphene (FLG) and carbon nanotube (CNT) hybrid is prepared by in situ growth of FLG on the walls of CNTs, using PECVD, without catalyst. The amount and size of FLG can be controlled by total gas pressure and growth time. The field emission (FE) characteristics of CNTs coated with different-density FLG were…
We report a strategy for controlling nanoscopic electronic domains to produce gigantic Mott metal–insulator transition phenomena in strongly correlated oxides by fabricating oxide micro-nano-wires, nanowalls, nanoboxes. We investigated the dependence of spatial dimensionality on wire width for a disordered configurati…
This study introduces a numerical tool to generate virtual diffraction peaks from known elastic displacement or strain fields arising in the presence of discrete straight or curved dislocations in continuous media. The tool allows for the generation of diffraction peaks according to three methods: the displacement-bas…
One material that has found particular favor for use in biomedical endovascular stents is the near equi-atomic NiTi alloy, Nitinol. One remarkable trait exhibited by this superelastic material is the improvement of its fatigue performance with increasing mean strain (Ref 1 , 2 ). Clarification into this phenomenon sti…
ABSTRACT Controlling the chain orientation of polyimide is important because it affects the physical and electrical properties of the film. When a polyimide film is thick, the chain orientation has an inhomogeneous distribution along the thickness direction. In this study, poly(amic acids), the precursor of polyimide,…
This article studied the influence of silica (SiO2) particles on the crosslinked network and the molecular mobility of ethylene-propylene-diene (EPDM) rubber chains by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). When SiO2 fraction is lower than 8 phr, the chain segments that participate in the glass-rubber transition (α transi…
