We report a rational approach to fabricate graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with sub-10 nm width by employing chemically synthesized nanowires as the physical protection mask in oxygen plasma etch. Atomic force microscopy study shows that the patterns of the resulted nanoribbons replicate exactly those of mask nanowires so…

Here we systematically examined the effect of nanoparticle size (10-100 nm) and surface chemistry (i.e., poly(ethylene glycol)) on passive targeting of tumors in vivo. We found that the physical and chemical properties of the nanoparticles influenced their pharmacokinetic behavior, which ultimately determined their tu…

X-ray micro-tomography (XMT) was used to characterise the pore structure of two open-cell biopolymer foams (starch extrudates). A three-dimensional watershed algorithm was applied to XMT images to segment pore structure. Distributions of pore sizes and interconnecting pore aperture sizes were determined and pore geome…

We find a giant nonlinear conduction in the charge-ordered organic salt $\ensuremath{\theta}\text{\ensuremath{-}}{(\text{BEDT-TTF})}_{2}\text{RbZn}{(\text{SCN})}_{4}$ in a rapidly cooled state from 34 to 99 K, which cannot be ascribed to a simple Joule heating. The observed voltage-current characteristics are essentia…

Abstract The mechanical properties of poly(1‐butene) reinforced by pristine multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and polypropylene‐grafted MWNTs (PP‐ g ‐MWNTs) were evaluated. The incorporation of pristine MWNTs to PB led to an improvement in stiffness, but not in strength, ductility, and toughness. In comparison, PP‐…
