There are so many textbooks on basic crystallography that one's first reaction on seeing yet another one appear is to wonder whether it is needed.I can say, however, from years of teaching this subject to undergraduates and graduates, that no matter how many such books there are, this is a subject that is still poorly…
Programmed nanoscaled systems are emerging that may be very useful for tumor-targeted drug delivery: novel nanoparticles are pre-programmed to alter their structure and properties during the drug delivery process to make them most effective for the different extra- and intracellular delivery steps. Programming is effe…
Three new models for the effective thermal conductivity of concentrated particulate composites are developed using the differential effective medium approach. One model predicts the relative thermal conductivity (K r ) of a particulate composite to be a function of two variables, namely thermal conductivity ratio λ (r…
Abstract In this investigation the electrochemical behaviour of the Ti‐13Nb‐13Zr, Ti‐6Al‐4V and Ti‐6Al‐7Nb alloys, for application as implant materials was evaluated in Hanks' solution by electrochemical techniques. The alloys were immersed in this solution for 410 days and periodically they were tested by electrochem…
We investigate the Fock-Darwin states of the massless chiral fermions confined in a graphitic parabolic quantum dot. In light of Klein tunneling, we analyze the condition for confinement of the Dirac fermions in a cylindrically symmetric potential. New features of the energy levels of the Dirac electrons as compared t…
Edge-to-edge interprecipitate distance distributions are critical for predicting precipitation strengthening of alloys and other physical phenomena. A method to calculate this 3D distance and the 2D interplanar distance from atom-probe tomographic data is presented. It is applied to nanometer-sized Cu-rich precipitate…
Novel group-transfer polymerization (GTP) of 4-methacryloyloxy-TEMPO for the preparation of poly(4-methacryloyloxy-TEMPO) (PTMA) has been developed. The new PTMA has been tested as an active electrode material in rechargeable organic radical battery (ORB). The advantage of the GTP method is that it affords PTMA contai…
Pairing of a Keggin or Lindqvist polyoxometalate (POM) anion with an appropriate tetraalkylphosphonium cation is shown to yield the first members of a new family of ionic liquids (ILs). Detailed characterization of one of them, an ambient-temperature "liquid POM" comprising the Lindqvist salt of the trihexyl(tetradecy…
Abstract While numerous works deal with the properties and applications of porous silicon (PS), some of the related topics are not complete or could be investigated from different aspects. The main objective of this paper is to provide novel information associated with the optical properties of nano‐ and meso‐PS by st…
In this paper, two methods for the synthesis of magnetic nanotubes inside the pores of anodic alumina membranes by atomic layer deposition (ALD) are compared. The precursors were nickelocene or cobaltocene, and H2O or O3. The first method consists of a three-step ALD cycle: First, the sample is exposed to the metal-or…
Thin mesoporous films of ZnO were prepared by electrochemical deposition using eosin Y as a structure-directing agent. After removal of the eosin from the structure, transparent porous ZnO films were obtained. The porosity and surface area of these films were determined by performing krypton BET measurements. Electroc…
Measurements of the core and ligand monolayer compositions of small gold nanoparticles (NPs) using electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry were performed by incorporating ionization tags, methoxy penta(ethylene glycol) thiolate ligands (-S-PEG), into the ligand monolayers via ligand exchange. During ESI, alkal…
A simple synthesis for highly ordered mesoporous Ce 1 - x Zr x O 2 solid solutions with various Ce/Zr ratios is achieved. Structural characterization with small-angle and wide-angle PXRD, vis−Raman spectra, and TEM methods reveals that the Ce 1 - x Zr x O 2 have a 2D hexagonal mesostructure with crystalline walls. The…
Resonant nonradiative energy transfer between close-packed PbS quantum dots is observed in continuous-wave and time-resolved fluorescence experiments. Samples of nominally a single dot size, and two dot sizes, were investigated. In both cases, the time-integrated fluorescence exhibits a substantial redshift compared t…
ZnO has received considerable attention because of its unique optical, piezoelectric, and magnetic properties. It also readily self-assembles into a family of nanocrystalline structures. We review the current status of research into ZnO tetrapod nanocrystals. These crystals consist of a ZnO core in the zinc blende str…
Materials for electromagnetic shielding are increasingly needed to protect electronic devices from interference problems and to avoid dangerous effects on human health due to electromagnetic radiation. Several shielding applications require solutions that textiles can suitably fulfill. Here the electromagnetic interfe…
The procedure has been developed for extracting homocharge and heterocharge currents from experimentally measured thermally stimulated depolarization currents of corona poled PVDF. Application of different depolarization modes supplemented with the isothermal currents allowed to obtain such parameters of relaxation pr…
A model describing the influence of torsion stress on the giant magnetoimpedance in amorphous wires with negative magnetostriction is proposed. The wire impedance is found by means of the solution of Maxwell equations together with the Landau-Lifshitz equation, assuming a simplified spatial distribution of the magneto…
From a detailed analysis of InN epilayers deposited in a close-coupled showerhead metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) system under various conditions we investigate the effect of growth parameters on the lattice constants of the InN layer. The layers are under significant internal hydrostatic stress which influe…
Four modifications of the corona triode are described for charging polar polymers with ferroelectric or non-linear optical properties. Advantages of the constant current modification of corona poling are illustrated and discussed.
