The self-ordering behavior of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) has been investigated for anodization of aluminum in malonic acid (H 4 C 3 O 4 ) solution. In the present study it is found that a porous oxide layer formed on the surface of aluminum can effectively suppress catastrophic local events (such as breakdown of the…
Abstract The synthesis of a new cyclic carbonate monomer containing an allyl group was reported and its biodegradable amphiphilic block copolymer, poly(ethylene glycol)‐ block ‐poly( L ‐lactide‐ co ‐5‐methyl‐5‐allyloxycarbonyl‐propylene carbonate) [PEG‐ b ‐P(LA‐ co ‐MAC)] was synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization…
We report here the synthesis and self-assembly of a series of asymmetric dumbbell-shaped rod amphiphiles containing hydrophilic oligoether dendrons at one end and hydrophobic alkyl dendrons at the other end of the stiff rod segment with systematic variation in the length of the hydrophobic alkyl chain ranging from eth…
Volatilization of Sb during the fabrication of CoSb3 by mechanical alloying and then spark plasma sintering has been successfully compensated by adding excess Sb. The average grain size increases apparently with excess Sb content, abnormally grown by about 100 times as the excess Sb is up to 4 at.%. A liquid-phase-rel…
We present an instrument for performing correlation spectroscopy on single fluorescent particles while tracking their Brownian motion in three dimensions using real-time feedback. By tracking CdSe/ZnS quantum dots in water (diffusion coefficient approximately 20 microm2/s), we make the first measurements of photon ant…
The full three dimensional dispersion of the pi-bands, Fermi velocities and effective masses are measured with angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy and compared to first-principles calculations. The band structure by density-functional theory strongly underestimates the slope of the bands and the trigonal warping…
The nature of the cooperative Jahn-Teller (JT) transition accompanied by orbital order-disorder in Nd1-xCaxMnO3 has been studied by high temperature (300 - 1200K) synchrotron and laboratory X-ray powder diffraction in the low doping region (0
Nitrogen embedded ZnO : N films prepared by pulsed laser deposition exhibit significant ferromagnetism. The presence of nitrogen ions contained in ZnO is confirmed by the secondary ion microscopic spectrum and by Raman experiments, and the embedded nitrogen ions can be regarded as defects. According to the experimenta…
A qualitative and rapid measurement technique based on multiple light scattering was employed to analyze the dispersion stability of black multiwalled carbon nanotube (CNT) suspensions. Pristine and chemically oxidized CNTs were dispersed in various polar and nonpolar solvents. The change in the transmission of near-i…
In order to elucidate the nature of ferromagnetic signatures observed in (Zn,Co)O, we have examined experimentally and theoretically magnetic properties and spin-dependent quantum localization effects that control low-temperature magnetoresistance. Our findings, together with a through structural characterization, sub…
A dual functional lithium–lead (DFLL) test blanket module (TBM) concept has been proposed for testing in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) and the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) in China to demonstrate the technologies of the liquid lithium–lead breeder blankets with emp…
This paper presents an experimental study of the fretting crack nucleation threshold, expressed in terms of loading conditions, with a cylinder/plane contact. The studied material is a damage tolerant aluminium alloy widely used in the aerospace application. Since in industrial problems, the surface quality is often v…
We use high content cell analysis, live cell fluorescent imaging, and transmission electron microscopy approaches combined with inhibitors of cellular transport and nuclear import to conduct a systematic study of the mechanism of interaction of nonfunctionalized quantum dots (QDs) with live human blood monocyte-derive…
We show an effective experimental method to prepare hierarchically porous zinc oxide (ZnO) spherical nanoparticles through a self-assembly pathway using surface-modified colloidal ZnO nanocrystallites as the building blocks and P-123 copolymers as the template in aqueous solution. Copolymers are thoroughly removed by…
Cellulose nanocrystals are promising candidates for applications in nanomedicine. To enable the use of fluorescence techniques in in vitro and in vivo studies, cellulose nanocrystals were labeled with fluorescein-5‘-isothiocyanate (FITC) via a three-step reaction, involving epoxy activation of the nanocrystal surface,…
BACKGROUND: The study aims at revealing the fate of nanoparticles administered intravenously and intraperitoneally to adult female mice, some of which were pregnant. Gold nanoparticles were chosen as a model because these particles have been found to be chemically inert and at the same time are easily traced by autome…
Piezoelectricity is inherent only in noncentrosymmetric materials, but a piezoelectric response can also be obtained in centrosymmetric crystals if subjected to inhomogeneous deformation. This phenomenon, known as flexoelectricity, can significantly affect the functional properties of insulators, particularly thin fil…
Growth kinetics and temporal size/shape evolution of gold nanocrystals by citrate reduction in boiling water were studied systematically and quantitatively. Results reveal that the size variation and overall reaction mechanism were mostly determined by the solution pH that was in turn controlled by the concentration o…
Gas desorption in vacuum from electron irradiated ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (PE) is measured with a high sensible mass quadrupole spectrometer. Measurements are performed in thick PE irradiated with 5 MeV electron beams at doses of the order of tens of kGy. The irradiation modifies the PE molecules prod…
The effect of impurities on the properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was investigated with multiple analytical techniques. Charge transfer is believed to occur between the impurities and the SWNTs as observed by combining the Raman scattering and x-ray photoelectron measurements. The impurity condition (…
