A tetrafluoro-substituted fluorescein derivative covalently linked to a 9,10-diphenyl anthracene moiety has been synthesized, and its photophysical properties have been characterized. This compound, denoted Aarhus Sensor Green (ASG), has distinct advantages for use as a fluorescent probe for singlet molecular oxygen,…
Oxidative C-H bond cleavage of toluene derivatives and sulfoxidation of thioanisole derivatives by a nonheme iron(IV)-oxo complex, [(N4Py)Fe(IV)(O)](2+) (N4Py = N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-N-bis(2-pyridyl)methylamine), were remarkably enhanced by the presence of triflic acid (HOTf) and Sc(OTf)3 in acetonitrile at 298 K.…
This paper presents a study of the sensing properties exhibited by textile-based knitted strain sensors. Knitted sensors were manufactured using flat-bed knitting technology, and electro-mechanical tests were subsequently performed on the specimens using a tensile testing machine to apply strain whilst the sensor was…
A novel phenolic biosensor was prepared on the basis of a composite of polydopamine (PDA)-laccase (Lac)-nickel nanoparticle loaded carbon nanofibers (NiCNFs). First, NiCNFs were fabricated by a combination of electrospinning and a high temperature carbonization technique. Subsequently, the magnetic composite was obtai…
We have discovered that a novel chiral structured surface relief (termed 'conch'-shaped surface relief) with a height of over 1 μm can be formed in an azo-polymer film merely by employing circularly polarized optical vortex irradiation with a total angular momentum of j = ±2. The temporal evolution of the conch-shaped…
This paper examines a series of poly(3-alkylthiophene)s (P3ATs), a class of materials for which mechanical compliance and electronic performance have been observed to be in competition. P3ATs with longer alkyl side chains ( n ≥ 8) have high elasticity and ductility, but poor electronic performance (as manifested in ph…
Peptides take on an increasingly important role as therapeutics in areas including diabetes, oncology, and metabolic, cardiovascular, and infectious diseases. In addition, many peptides such as insulin have been employed for many years. A challenge in the administration of peptide drugs is their often low hydrolytic s…
The ionization potential is a fundamental key quantity with great relevance to diverse material properties. We find that state of the art methods based on density functional theory and simple diagrammatic approaches as commonly taken in the GW approximation predict the ionization potentials of semiconductors and insul…
The surface plasmon resonance of Au nanoparticle on MoS2 nanosheet is successfully measured by the electron energy-loss spectroscopy. Furthermore, Au-MoS2 composite is developed as the photoanode material in the photo-electronchemical cell (PEC) for water splitting. Compared to the pure MoS2 -based PEC, Au-MoS2 based…
Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution may provide one of the solutions to the shift to a sustainable energy society, but the quantum efficiency of the process still needs to be improved. Precise control of the composition and structure of the metal nanoparticle cocatalysts is essential, and we show that fine-tuning the Au…
Multiferroics have attracted strong interest for potential applications where electric fields control magnetic order. The ultimate speed of control via magnetoelectric coupling, however, remains largely unexplored. Here, we report an experiment in which we drove spin dynamics in multiferroic TbMnO3 with an intense few…
Nanoporous carbon particles with magnetic Co nanoparticles (Co/NPC particles) are synthesized by one-step carbonization of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) crystals. After the carbonization, the original ZIF-67 shapes are preserved well. Fine magnetic Co nanoparticles are well dispersed in the nanoporous car…
A perovskite solar cell based on ZnO nanorods was prepared, and its photovoltaic performance was investigated. ZnO nanorods were grown on the ZnO seed layer from solution, and their diameters and lengths were controlled by precursor concentration and growth time. CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 perovskite infiltrated ZnO nanorods sho…
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and IDP regions fail to form a stable structure, yet they exhibit biological activities. Their mobile flexibility and structural instability are encoded by their amino acid sequences. They recognize proteins, nucleic acids, and other types of partners; they accelerate interacti…
ZnO is used in a wide variety of applications owing to the electrical properties. Polycrystalline ZnO ceramics have long been used such as varistor, and ZnO films are currently intensively studied for transparent conductor applications. Grain boundary (GB) in ZnO varistor is believed to be the origin of nonlinear curr…
The growth and structural/optical properties of metal-oxide semiconductor nanostructures by a simple, low-cost, and large-scalable fabrication method were studied. These nanostructures were applied to energy and optoelectronic devices, such as piezoelectric nanogenerators and photodetective sensors, to improve the dev…
Prephenate dehydratase is a key enzyme of the biosynthesis of L-phenylalanine in the organisms that utilize shikimate pathway. Since this enzymatic pathway does not exist in mammals, prephenate dehydratase can provide a new drug targets for antibiotics or herbicide. Prephenate dehydratase is an allosteric enzyme regul…
ABSTRACT To provide additional functionality to the adhesive polyurethane (PU) matrices, a solution intercalation approach was used to synthesize PU nanocomposite films with layered silicate bentonites modified with different surface ammonium ions. The oxygen permeation through the composite films was correlated to th…
We investigate substrate overetch effect on resonance properties of sub-wavelength titanium oxide (TiO2) Guided Mode Resonance Filters (TiO2-GMRFs). The TiO2-GMRF is designed and fabricated to possess a non-polarizing behavior, which is strongly dependent on substrate (fused silica) overetch depth. For non-polarizing…
We propose a design methodology for systematic design of surface relief transmission gratings with optimized diffraction efficiency. The methodology is based on a gradient-based topology optimization formulation along with 2D frequency domain finite element simulations for TE and TM polarized plane waves. The goal of…
