Extended abstract of a paper presented at Microscopy and Microanalysis 2011 in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, August 7–August 11, 2011.
An ellagic acid (EA)-zinc layered hydroxide (ZLH) nanohybrid (EAN) was synthesized under a nonaqueous environment using EA and zinc oxide (ZnO) as the precursors. Powder X-ray diffraction showed that the basal spacing of the nanohybrid was 10.4 Å, resulting in the spatial orientation of EA molecules between the interl…
Nanomaterials often act as a double sword. On the one hand they offer exceptional new properties, but on the other hand show signs of toxicity. High aspect ratio nanomaterials (HARNs) cause more concern than isometric nanoparticles owing to their physical similarity with asbestos. Many compounds may be prepared in fib…
UNLABELLED: Quantum dots (QDs) are nanoparticles with strong fluorescent emission and are novel tools used in biomedical applications, but the toxicity and mechanism of cellular uptake are poorly understood. QD655-COOH (negative charge, 18 nm) consist of a cadmium/selenide core and a zinc sulfide shell with a carboxyl…
Today polymer/carbon nanotube (CNT) composites can be found in sports equipment, cars, and electronic devices. The growth of old and new markets in this area has been stimulated by our increased understanding of relevant production and processing methods, as well as the considerable price reduction of industrial CNT g…
The paper presents an innovative design of fast tool servo (FTS) by combining compliant mechanism (CM) and precision engineering (PE) so as to meet the stringent requirements of a one degree of freedom (1DOF) compact FTS. The design requirements of the FTS include: (a) 1 nm resolution, (b) 10–20 μm of range,…
The paper presents a design of squeeze film air journal bearing based on the design rules derived from CFX and FEA simulation study of an air film in between two flat plates, one of which was driven in a sinusoidal manner. The rules are that the oscillation frequency should be at least 15 kHz and that the oscillation…
We have reviewed the work on molecular dynamics simulation of transport properties of liquid crystals during the last 25 years. To begin with, we present the model systems that have been used in mo ...
Ishii K.-I., Iwataki M., Matsuoka K. and Imai I. 2011. Proposal of identification criteria for resting spores of Chaetoceros species (Bacillariophyceae) from a temperate coastal sea. Phycologia 50: 351–362. DOI: 10.2216/10-36.1Chaetoceros is a large, ecologically important genus of marine planktonic diatoms. Many spec…
The corrosion behavior of duplex stainless steel (DSS, Fe - 22%Cr - 9%Ni - 3%Mo) alloy after varying exposure periods in 10% H2SO4 solution was investigated. The influences of minor Ru additions, namely, 0.14%, 0.22%, and 0.28%, on the passivation of this DSS were also reported. The study was performed using open-circ…
DNA single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection has attracted much attention due to mutation related diseases. Various methods for SNP detection have been proposed and many are already in use. Here, we find that the abasic site (AP site) in the DNA duplex can be developed as a capping scaffold for the generation of…
This paper addresses the problem of consistent energy-based coupling of atomistic and continuum models of materials, limited to zero-temperature statics of simple crystals. It has been widely recognized that the most practical coupled methods exhibit large errors on the atomistic/continuum interface (which are often a…
Cathodic plasma electrolytic (CPE) techniques are new groups of coating processes, which can be used for fabrication of nanostructured layers on surface of a wide range of metallic substrates. The most exciting visible feature of these atmospheric-based plasma techniques is continuous sparking on processed surface ins…
Glass fiber-reinforced PP composites compatibilized with maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) were compounded with a twin-screw extruder and injection molded. The composite specimens were subjected to DSC, DMA, tensile, and flexural property characterizations. DSC results showed that the presence of glass fib…
In order to advance the field of single-molecule surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SM-SERS), a better understanding of colloid morphology and hot spot properties in noble metal nanoparticle aggregates is crucial. We present super-resolution optical studies of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from rhodamine 6G…
In this paper, the electrochemical degradation of polypyrrole film was studied by means of overpotential application. The overpotential was 0.58 V versus SCE, and after every 5 min of application of 0.58 V, a cyclic voltammogram was recorded in the range of -0.7 to 0.5 V as well as an electrochemical impedance spectro…
Graphene edges determine the optical, magnetic, electrical, and electronic properties of graphene. In particular, termination, chemical functionalization and reconstruction of graphene edges leads to crucial changes in the properties of graphene, so control of the edges is critical to the development of applications i…
BACKGROUND: Polymeric micelles using amphiphilic macromolecules are promising vehicles for antitumor targeting. In this study, we prepared anticancer agent-incorporated polymeric micelles using novel block copolymer. METHODS: We synthesized a block copolymer composed of dextran and poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (Dexb…
