The thermal reshaping of gold nanorods (NRs) in a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanocomposite film is investigated by UV-vis and TEM. To ensure dispersion, the NRs are modified with PEG brushes, and then dispersed in PMMA. Thermal annealing of the PMMA–NR film results in a blue shift of the longitudinal plasmon res…
Due to their ability to microphase separate into well ordered structures with periodicities on the nanometre scale, block copolymers have received widespread attention as building blocks for the fabrication of nanomaterials. In particular, thin films of block copolymers promise new technological breakthroughs in e.g.…
A careful choice of the pyrrole building blocks allows the synthesis of a wide range of monohalogenated BODIPY dyes with excellent reactivity in palladium catalyzed coupling reactions.
The reaction of Co(ClO4)2·6H2O with a disodium 2-[(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-enzylidene)-amino]-ethanesulfonic acid (Na2L) in a mixture solution (methanol : acetonitrile = 1 : 1 (v/v)) or an acetonitrile solution under microwave and controlled pressure/temperature, or solvothermal conditions leads to the formation of two co…
Brief introductions to spin crossover (SCO), single molecule magnetism (SMM) and single chain magnetism (SCM) are provided. Each section is illustrated by selected examples that have contributed significantly to the development of these fields, including recent efforts to produce materials (films, attachment to surfac…
A semianalytical model based on the method of eigenfunction expansions and domain decomposition is developed for Stokes shear flow over a grating composed of a periodic array of parallel slats, with finite slippage on solid surfaces and infinite slippage on the bottom of troughs mimicking a no-shear liquid-gas interfa…
Abstract Pt nanoparticles (NPs) with the average size of 3.14 nm well dispersed on N-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) without any pretreatment have been demonstrated. Structural properties show the characteristic N bonding within CNTs, which provide the good support for uniform distribution of Pt NPs. In electrochemical…
Abstract Tin nitride (Sn x N y ) nanowires have been grown for the first time by chemical vapour deposition on n-type Si(111) and in particular by nitridation of Sn containing NH4Cl at 450 °C under a steady flow of NH3. The Sn x N y nanowires have an average diameter of 200 nm and lengths ≥5 μm and were grown on Si(11…
Abstract Magnesium borate hydroxide (MBH) nanowhiskers were synthesized using a one step hydrothermal process with different surfactants. The effect surfactants have on the structure and morphology of the MBH nanowhiskers has been investigated. The X-ray diffraction profile confirms that the as-synthesized material is…
Abstract Worm-like nanorods and nanospheres of silver have been synthesized by photochemical decomposition of silver oxalate in water by UV irradiation in the presence of CTAB and PVP, respectively. No external seeds have been employed for the synthesis of Ag nanorods. The synthesized Ag colloids have been characteriz…
Abstract In this paper, ZnS one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures including tetrapods, nanorods, nanobelts, and nanoslices were selectively synthesized by using RF thermal plasma in a wall-free way. The feeding rate and the cooling flow rate were the critical experimental parameters for defining the morphology of the fi…
Abstract Highly ordered mesoporous CdS nanowire arrays were synthesized by using mesoporous silica as hard template and cadmium xanthate (CdR2) as a single precursor. Upon etching silica, mesoporous CdS nanowire arrays were produced with a yield as high as 93 wt%. The nanowire arrays were characterized by XRD, N2adsor…
Abstract Dispersed nanosphere lithography can be employed to fabricate gold nanostructures for localized surface plasmon resonance, in which the gold film evaporated on the nanospheres is anisotropically dry etched to obtain gold nanostructures. This paper reports that by wet etching of the gold film, various kinds of…
Abstract Reddish Au condensates, predominant atom clusters and minor amount of multiply twinned particles and fcc nanoparticles with internal compressive stress, were produced by pulsed laser ablation on gold target in de-ionized water under a very high power density. Such condensates were self-assembled as lamellae a…
Abstract Lamellar nanocondensates in partial epitaxy with larger-sized multiply twinned particles (MTPs) or alternatively in the form of multiple-walled tubes (MWTs) having nothing to do with MTP were produced by the very energetic pulse laser ablation of Au target in vacuum under specified power density and pulses. T…
Abstract Using scanning tunneling microscopy, the influence of a thin Au layer on the diffusion of Fe adatoms and the subsequent island nucleation on a Si(111) surface is investigated. The adsorbate induces the structure that increases the surface mobility of subsequently deposited Fe atoms, resulting in the formation…
Abstract As a fast developing alternative of traditional therapeutics, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an effective, noninvasive, nontoxic therapeutics for cancer, senile macular degeneration, and so on. But the efficacy of PDT was compromised by insufficient selectivity and low solubility. In this study, novel multifun…
Abstract We report on the observation of the size effect of thermal magnetization in Au nanoparticles. The thermal deviation of the saturation magnetization departs substantially from that predicted by the Bloch T3/2-law, indicating the existence of magnetic anisotropic energy. The results may be understood using the…
Abstract We report a unique growth of platelet-shaped nanoscale tips of transparent dielectric using femtosecond laser radiation at MHz pulse repetition rate with nitrogen background gas flow under ambient condition. The tips grew with sharp nanoscale apex while their base and lengths are of the order of few hundred n…
Abstract A semiconductor/metal nanocomposite is composed of a porosified silicon wafer and embedded ferromagnetic nanostructures. The obtained hybrid system possesses the electronic properties of silicon together with the magnetic properties of the incorporated ferromagnetic metal. On the one hand, a transition metal…
