Gallia (gallium oxide) has been proved to enhance the performance of metal catalysts in a variety of catalytic reactions involving methanol, CO and H(2). The presence of formate species as key intermediates in some of these reactions has been reported, although their role is still a matter of debate. In this work, a c…
ZnO/(La, Sr) CoO3 (ZnO/LSCO) core-shell composite nanorod arrays have been successfully synthesized by a sequential combination process of a hydrothermal synthesis followed by a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process (or a colloidal deposition process). Compared to the colloidal deposition process, PLD produces a more…
We report a very simple and novel one-step method to synthesize silver-core-gold-shell or silver-gold alloy nanoparticles by in situ sunlight-reduction in AgNO3 solution and NaAuCl4 solution in the presence of DNA. It was found that the DNA acted as template and reducing agent in the formation of the novel nanostructu…
Five new complexes were obtained from solution or hydrothermal reactions of M(OAc)(2) (M = Mn, Cu and Cd) or CuCl(2) with 4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole (abpt) and NaN(3) or 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (btcH(3)) in different molar ratios. Structural analysis reveals that Cd(abpt) units in [Cd(abpt)(m…
Bolaamphiphilic fluorene-based oligomers self-assemble in water to form fluorescent nanoparticles with tuneable emission colours covering the entire visible range, even including white.
The layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly of polyelectrolytes has emerged as a powerful and versatile strategy for engineering (bio)surfaces with active compounds. One possibility to engineer such films is to dope them with nanoparticles or with intact vesicles as carriers filled with the compounds of interest. In our pr…
Mechanical stirring of ammonia borane with CuCl2 in the solid state resulted in the release of hydrogen at room temperature through the intermediacy of [NH4]+[BCl4]−.
Silica nanotubes with mesoporous walls of 30 nm thickness and various internal morphologies are produced using hard/soft dual templates; this hierarchical pore structure shows faster mass transportation in catalysis.
The behavior of Au nanorods and Ag nanocubes as analytical sensors was evaluated for three different classes of herbicides. The use of such anisotropic nanoparticles in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) experiments allows the one to obtain the spectrum of crystal violet dye in the single molecule regime, as wel…
The role of dispersive interactions on the structure, energetic and vibrational features of brucite [Mg(OH)2], portlandite [Ca(OH)2] and kaolinite [Al2Si2O5(OH)4] layered materials has been addressed for the first time. Dispersion contribution is included with a −C6/R6 empirical correction to the B3LYP functional (B3L…
The one-step synthesis and spectroscopic characterizations of size-controlled silver nanoparticles are described. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermal gravimetric-mass analysis (TGA-MS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscop…
One-pot reactions between 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol (DFMP) and 2-aminoethanol (AE) in the presence of cobalt(II) salts [Co(ClO4)2, CoCl2, Co(CH3CO2)2, Co(NO3)2] and sodium azide result in the self-assembly of novel one-dimensional single chain mixed-valence cobalt coordination polymers {[Co2(II)Co2(III) (HL)2(OCH3)2…
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are widely used as T2-contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Herein we develop various antibiofouling amphiphilic polymer-coated SPIONs using a one-step nanoemulsion method. This methodology yielded ultrasmall polymer-coated SPIONs, of average diameter…
The effect of oxygen content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Ti-29 mass%Nb-13 mass%Ta-4.6 mass%Zr (TNTZ) alloy was investigated in this study. The microstructural observation of TNTZ alloys, containing 0.1–0.4 mass% oxygen, subjected to solution treatment shows the presence of a single β phase.…
The conductivity behaviour and structure of CaH2 and SrH2 have been studied and compared to the behaviour of samples reacted with a monovalent hydride, NaH. The created hydride ion vacancies are expected to enhance hydride ion conductivity and give more insight into the conduction mechanism. The observed conductivity…
A platinum(II) complex of 5,5'-bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)-2,2'-bipyridine displays unusually reversible colour and luminescence changes when exposed to specific organic vapours, correlated well with Pt...Pt distances as well as pi-pi and C-H...(C[triple bond]C) interactions in the stacking of square-planar platinum(II…
We develop a facile approach to fabricating multifunctional dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles (Au DSNPs) for cancer cell targeting and imaging. In this work, amine-terminated generation 5 (G5) poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers pre-functionalized with folic acid (FA) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FI) are comp…
Highly ordered periodic mesoporous organosilica synthesized from a newly designed 9(10H)-acridone bridged organosilane precursor exhibited efficient light-harvesting antenna properties for visible light, at wavelengths up to 450 nm.
Due to remarkable rolling structure and distinct rolling direction, the chirality-dependent Raman spectra of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) show two characteristic features: the radial breathing mode (RBM) and the G-band. Rich information about SWNTs presented by these Raman features makes Raman spectroscopy a…
We report for the first time the synthesis of colloidal Ln3+/Yb3+ co-doped KY3F10nanocrystals (Ln = Er or Eu) viathermal decomposition. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies indicated that the average size of the nanocrystals was approximately 15 nm. The nanocrystals crystallized in the cubic Fmm space gr…
