Highly innovative multimodal perfluorocarbon (PFC) nanoemulsions are presented. They serve simultaneously as dual-mode imaging reagents (NIR and 19F MRI), and drug delivery vehicles for water insoluble cyclooxgenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors. These features qualify them as theranostic. Cancer progression and metastasis are…

NOx gases affect the diurnal rise and fall of tropospheric ozone. By removing NOx gases through the use of titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalytic materials, tropospheric ozone concentrations could be reduced. Recent developments related to the photocatalytic pollution reduction capabilities of TiO2 have led a movement…

The dependence of the magnetic properties of epitaxial Fe50Pt50 films on order parameter (S) was investigated. It was demonstrated that the magnetic anisotropy could be tuned by controlling S which can be controlled by the growth temperature. Based on this result, two kinds of multilayered structures, each with a 13 n…
