Uniform diameter, horizontally aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are grown on sapphire substrate through the control of Fe nanoparticle size by annealing in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV). We find that thermal annealing in UHV reduces the Fe nanoparticle size and significantly narrows their size distribution. The…

The Fourier modal method (FMM) is a method for efficiently solving Maxwell’s equations with periodic boundary conditions. In order to apply the FMM to nonperiodic structures, perfectly matched layers need to be placed at the periodic boundaries, and the Maxwell equations have to be formulated in terms of a contrast (s…

Abstract The chloroform‐soluble products of aniline or ( 15 N)aniline oxidation in alkaline medium were analysed using one‐ and two‐dimensional 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and 15 N NMR spectroscopy. Among the products, two were found to be prominent, namely a carbonyl‐containing semiquinonoid and a phenazine‐like structure. The…

1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbondiimide hydrochloride (EDC) is commonly used as a crosslinker to help bind biomolecules, such as DNA plasmids, with nanostructures. However, EDC often remains, after a crosslink reaction, in the micro-aperture of the nanostructure, e.g., carbon nanotube. The remaining EDC shows…

Can't keep me down: Silver nanoclusters (NCs), formed by spontaneous atomic-level dispersion of non-nano silver onto Al2O3 surface, show self- regenerative properties during redox aging above 900 °C and, consequently, higher activity than state-of-the-art CO oxidation catalysts after the aging. Size-dependence of the…
