A highly luminescent compound, stilbene-2,4-dimethyl-6-(1,2,2,4-tetramethyl-1,2-dihydroquinolin-6-yl)-1,3,5-s-triazine (MQT), exhibits solvent polarity-induced emission enhancement. A fluorescent sensor array was fabricated with MQT and porous polymer substrates. The colorimetric changes of the array exposed to VOCs c…

High level waste (HLW) originating from aqueous reprocessing of fast reactor fuels consists mainly of fission products, minor actinides and noble metals which are higher in concentration compared to that from thermal reactors. Borosilicate glass may not be an efficient matrix to fix this waste. Similarly, chloride HLW…

Patterned biohybrid films show great potential for application in biosensing, bioconversion, and biochips. Their preparation generally involves a multistep procedure including patterned film fabrication and biomolecule immobilization. Here, we report a one-step approach to well-ordered protein-containing films by the…

It is well known that the supramolecular assembly of block copolymers with associated low-molecular-weight additives leads to rich phase behaviors in both bulk and thin films. In this study, we demonstrate that the supramolecular assembly is also an efficient approach to control the microdomain orientation in block co…

In this study we investigate salt effects on bundle formation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) dispersed in an organic solvent, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). Addition of NaI salt leads to self-assembly of CNTs into well-recognizable bundles. It is possible to control the size of the CNT bundles by varying the salt concentra…

We design carbyne transistor which is integrable into the existing silicon technology and can be scaled up in a rather broad range -- starting from that prepared by us (by 0.5-mkm technology) up to the monomolecular one because the key mechanism here is the inter-chain charge transfer.

The hardenability of intercritically formed austenite and the mechanical properties of DP-980 steels were found to be strongly influenced by the state of the dissolution reaction of carbides during intercritical annealing. The carbide dissolution behavior of 0.15C–Nb–Cr–Mo–V steels was investigated.

We use Brownian dynamics (BD) simulations to investigate the formation and structural characteristics of the complex between a spherical polyelectrolyte brush (SPB) and oppositely charged surfactants. Increasing the amount of added surfactants leads to a collapsed conformation of the SPB and the number of adsorbed sur…

Mesoscale simulations are performed to study the complexes between a dendrimer and a vesicle of amphiphilic molecules. In particular, the assembled structures and dynamics of these complexes are investigated by tuning vesicle size and the surface tension of vesicle membrane. Our simulations demonstrate that a dendrime…

A synthetic rod-like smectic liquid crystal containing a rigid aromatic group and semi-fluorinated chains generates well-ordered toroidal structures called toric focal conic domains (TFCDs) as self-assembling building blocks when confined within rectangular micro-channels. However, in the case of common smectic liquid…
