The authors suggest a way to manipulate electromagnetic waves by introducing a rotation mapping of coordinates that can be realized by a specific transformation of the permittivity and permeability of a shell surrounding an enclosed domain. Inside the enclosed domain, the information from the outside will appear as if…
Mollusk shell nacre is known for its superior mechanical properties and precisely controlled biomineralization process. However, the question of how mollusks control the morphology of nacre lamellae remains unresolved. Here, a novel 38-kDa extrapallial fluid (EPF) protein, named amorphous calcium carbonate-binding pro…
The temperature dependence of saturation and spin-flop fields for artificial ferrimagnets (AFi) based on antiparallel coupled CoFeB/Ru/CoFeB trilayers has been investigated in a temperature range between 80K and 600K. The results presented in this paper are relevant for magnetic devices using this system, e.g. magneti…
The layered double hydroxide of Mg with Al decomposes below 600 degrees C with the loss of nearly 48% mass, resulting in the formation of an oxide residue having the rock salt structure and nanoparticulate morphology. However, this product reconstructs back into the parent LDH, owing to its compositional and morpholog…
CNT-encapsulated CeF3 nanowires have been made by arc discharge with CeF3 powder as the starting material and with polyetherimide (PEI) as the carbon precursor, in which carbon nanotubes formed in situ function as a nanotemplate. The carbon sheath of the as-made CNT-encapsulated CeF3 nanowires could be removed by air…
We report here the synthesis and characterization of two new conjugated polymers: poly{2,5-bis[3-(N,N-diethylammonium acetate)-1-oxapropyl]-1,4-phenylenevinylene} (P1') and poly{2,5-bis[3-(N,N,N-triethylammonium bromide)-1-oxapropyl]-1,4-phenylenevinylene} (P2). Both polymers exhibit unique pH-dependent optical proper…
Abstract Poly(amide‐imide), PI, hybrid films are prepared by using sol–gel techniques. First, the poly(amide amic acid) with controlled block chain length of 5000 and 10,000 g/mol and uncontrolled chain length are synthesized by condensation reaction with 4,4′‐diaminodiphenyl ether (ODA), 3,3′,4,4′‐benzophenonetetraca…
In the present work, we explored the structure evolution of preformed aqueous quantum dots (QDs) of metallic chalcogenides upon variation of the QD concentration, the incubation temperature, and the stabilizing ligands. The variation of the surrounding media was found to efficiently facilitate diffusion of the monomer…
The construction of highly stable and efficiently assembled multilayer films of purely water soluble gold nanoparticles is reported. Citrate-stabilized nanoparticles (CS-NPs) of average core diameter of 10 nm are used as templates for stabilization-based exchange reactions with thioctic acid to form more robust aqueou…
A model to assess the performances of an annular photocatalytic reactor has been developed by investigating different operational conditions through an analysis based on the proper dimensionless parameters (namely, the optical thickness, the Thiele modulus and two among the well-known Damköhler and Peclet numbers, whi…
The electronic structure of some substituted, four-coordinate iron(II) porphyrins has been investigated with DFT methods. These systems include iron tetraphenylporphine (FeTPP), iron octamethyltetrabenzporphine (FeOTBP), iron tetra(alpha,alpha,alpha,alpha-orthopivalamide)phenylporphine (FeTpivPP, also called "picket f…
Tetraarylbiladien-ab-ones bearing various substituents (R) in the para position of the phenyl groups were preprared by coupled oxidation of tetraarylporphyrin iron complexes. The yields of 5,10,15-triaryl-19-aroyl-15-hydroxybiladien-ab-ones were 74% (R=H), 85% (R=OMe), 44% (R=COOMe), and 28% (R=CN). Kinetic studies of…
Semiconductor CdX (X=Te, Se, S) hollow structures have been successfully prepared by using Cd(OH)Cl precursors as a sacrificial template. The hollow structures can be hollow spheres or tubes by controlling the shape of the sacrificial template. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electro…
Abstract Gold nanoparticles prepared by trisodium citrate reduction of HAuCl 4 in poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) ethanol solution were dispersed into PVP nanofibers by electrospinning. The optical property of Au nanoparticles before and after electrospinning was measured by UV‐Vis. The morphology and distribution of gol…
Basic carbonates of nickel (Ni(CO 3 ) x (OH) y · z H 2 O, abbreviated hereafter as NBC) are uniquely reactive in absorption with reaction of dilute hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) in nitrogen gas (N 2 ). The rate is fast at ambient temperature and the very high conversion is unusual, by comparison with other oxide and carbon…
Abstract Stabilizer effects of two types (homopolymer and copolymer) of commercially available polyoxymethylenes containing two different stabilizer packages under various aging conditions have been studied by the application of thermogravimetric analysis coupled with mass spectrometry. Increasing yellowness during th…
We present an in situ high-temperature nuclear magnetic resonance study on the structural changes in aluminophosphate glasses occurring in the temperature range between the glass transition temperature Tg and the crystallization temperature Tc, Tg < T < Tc. Decisive changes in the network organization between Tg and T…
Abstract Rutile TiO2 support is effective for increasing the formation rate as well as selectivity to H2O2. A great enhancement in the H2O2 formation rate and selectivity is achieved by controlling the particle size of Pd–Au (7:3 in weight ratio) alloy, and the average size of 18 nm exhibits the high selectivity to H2…
The origin and stability of photoluminescence (PL) are critical issues for silicon nanoparticles to be used as biological probes. Optical and electronic properties of propionic-acid (PA) -terminated silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) were studied using the density-functional tight-binding method. We find that the adsorbed P…
The present work represents the seminal study on the local properties of the grain boundaries of polycrystalline TiO 2 at elevated temperatures corresponding to the equilibrium with the gas phase of well-defined oxygen activity. These local properties have been determined from two sets of data obtained in two parallel…
