In this paper, we report a kind of bioinspired high performance near-infrared improved transmittance silica surfaces with superhydrophobic properties by colloidal lithography, with transmittance about 99% from 1300 to 2000 nm. Meanwhile, the optical properties of such surfaces can be controlled by the antireflective s…

Competitive adsorption between nonpolar organic compounds and polar ionic organic compounds (IOCs) on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is essential for application of CNTs as superior sorbents and for environmental risk assessment of both CNTs and organic contaminants. It was observed in this study that adsorption of neutral a…

Unknown parameters critical to understanding the electron-precursor-substrate interactions during electron-beam-induced deposition (EBID) have long limited our ability to fully control this nanoscale, directed assembly method. We report here values that describe the precursor-solid interaction, the precursor surface d…

The formation of well-oriented cylinders with perpendicular morphology for polystyrene-b-polydimethylsiloxane (PS-PDMS) thin films was achieved by spin coating. The self-assembled PS-PDMS nanostructured thin films were used as templates for nanopatterning; the PDMS blocks can be oxidized as silicon oxy carbide microdo…

The competition between chemical equilibrium, for example protonation, and physical interactions determines the molecular organization and functionality of biological and synthetic systems. Charge regulation by displacement of acid-base equilibrium induced by changes in the local environment provides a feedback mechan…

Here we report the synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotube bundles by chemical vapor deposition in the presence of electron donor elements (N, P, and Si). In order to introduce each dopant into the graphitic carbon lattice, different precursors containing the doping elements (benzylamine, pyrazine, triphenylphosphi…

Bamboo fiber-reinforced HDPE composites were prepared employing melt blending technique followed by injection molding. A systematic investigation of the mechanical, dynamic, thermal, and morphological behavior of the composites was carried out. It was observed that the tensile and flexural properties increased with th…

In this Comment, using Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent-potential approximation method in the atomic-sphere approximation (KKR-ASA CPA) to describe the effects of disorder due to excess Fe in FeTe alloys, we show that (i) the rigid-band approximation is inadequate to describe the effects of disorder and its application…

We present ab initio many-body calculations of the optical absorption in bulk graphite, graphene and bilayer of graphene. Electron-hole interaction is included solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation on top of a $GW$ quasiparticle electronic structure. For all three systems, we observe strong excitonic effects at high ene…

Scanning tunneling microscopy combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveal a dislocation-mediated island diffusion mechanism for Cu on Ag(111), a highly mismatched system. Cluster motion is tracked with atomic precision at multiple temperatures and diffusion barriers and prefactors are determined from direct me…

A new strategy for integrating high-dielectric-constant (high-k) dielectrics with graphene nanoribbon (GNR) is presented. Freestanding zirconium oxide nanowires are synthesized and subsequently assembled on top of GNRs as high-k gate dielectrics for top-gated GNR transistors with unprecedented performance.

A novel porphyrin tripod (TPZn(3)) was synthesized via "click chemistry". Three porphyrin moieties of TPZn(3) are geometrically close and linked by a flexible linker. The electron-transfer oxidation of TPZn(3) results in intramolecular pi-dimer formation between porphyrin moieties as indicated by electrochemical, vis-…

Poly-l-lactide/poly-d-lactide (PLLA/PDLA) stereocomplex had much higher hydrolytic stability compared to plain PLLA, but at the same time shorter and more acidic degradation products were formed. Both materials were subjected to hydrolytic degradation in water and in phosphate buffer at 37 and 60 degrees C, and the de…

A simple solution-based method to prepare mainly flowerlike zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures using the ascorbate ion as a shape-directing/capping agent at relatively low temperature (ca. 30 and 60 degrees C) was described. However, we observed that different shapes of hierarchical ZnO nanostructures such as flowerlike,…
