Au/Ag core/shell bipyramids were used as surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates to determine the thiram. The metallic substrates showed high SERS performance and are very suitable for the analytical sensors. The fabrication and characterization of the Au/Ag core/shell bipyramids were described. The influe…

Synthetic approaches based on deep eutectic solvents allow the preparation of phophate-functionalized carbon monoliths with a hierarchical structure. Both functionalization and hierarchy—combining macropores and high surface areas while preserving high monolith densities—are critical for the ahievement of remarkable e…

θ' (Al2Cu) precipitates in Al-Cu-Ag alloys were examined using high angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM). The precipitates nucleated on dislocation loops on which assemblies of γ' (AlAg2) precipitates were present. These dislocation loops were enriched in silver prior to θ' p…

This study investigates the strong photoluminescence (PL) and X-ray excited optical luminescence observed in nitrogen-functionalized 2D graphene nanoflakes (GNFs:N), which arise from the significantly enhanced density of states in the region of π states and the gap between π and π* states. The increase in the number o…
