A versatile means for preparing (nano)porous materials from arbitrary colloids and resins is presented. Aqueous gelation under mild conditions followed by ambient drying gives robust organic (image shown) and hybrid monoliths, with independent variations in structure and composition demonstrated. Novel, previously ina…

Since the discovery of WS2 nanotubes in 1992 ( Nature 1992, 360, 444), there have been significant research efforts to synthesize nanotubes and fullerene-like hollow nanoparticles (HNPs) of inorganic materials ( Nat. Nanotechnol. 2006, 1, 103) due to their potential applications as solid lubrications ( J. Mater. Chem.…

We present a study on the hydrophobization of spin-on Silicalite-1 zeolite films through silylation with trimethylchlorosilane. Microporous and micro-mesoporous Silicalite-1 films were synthesized by spin coating of suspensions of Silicalite-1 nanozeolite crystallized for different times. Ellipsometric porosimetry wit…

The homogeneous surface coating of multiwalled carbon nanotubes with linear low-density polyethylenes, containing from 3 to 34 branches per 1000 carbon atoms, has been achieved for the first time by combining the polymerization-filling technique (PFT) with tandem copolymerization catalysis. This method, which takes ad…

35 GHz electron paramagnetic resonance experiments on a powder sample of the magnetic molecule Mn 19 with a high-spin ground state S = 83/2 are presented. At low temperatures, the data are well described by the simulated spectra for an isolated spin with a zero-field-splitting parameter D = 0.004 cm (-1), which is, in…

A series of three ligands designed for the formation of water-soluble luminescent lanthanide complexes is described. All ligands are based on a 6''-carboxy-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine framework linked via a methylene bridge to n-butylamine. The second negatively charged arm consists of a 6-carboxy-2-methylenepyridine for…

Four compositions in the Sr 1–3 x /2 Ce x TiO 3 homologous series, corresponding to x = 0.1333, 0.1667, 0.25, and 0.4, have been produced by conventional solid-state processing. The structure of these compounds was analyzed by X-ray, electron, and neutron diffraction. While no superlattice can be observed via X-ray di…

While the polarization sensitivity of single or aligned NW ensembles is well-known, this article reports on the existence of residual photocurrent polarization sensitivities in random NW networks. In these studies, CdSe and CdTe NWs were deposited onto glass substrates and contacted with Au electrodes separated by 30-…

We prepared a Au/CeO 2 (111) model catalyst by depositing a thin cerium oxide film on a Ru(0001) surface and subsequently depositing gold. This model system was investigated using high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy. Gold forms metallic nanoparticles on CeO 2 with an average particle size that depends on the Au…

Colloidal GaAs quantum wires with diameters of 5-11 nm and narrow diameter distributions (standard deviation = 12-21% of the mean diameter) are grown by two methods based on the solution-liquid-solid (SLS) mechanism. Resolved excitonic absorption features arising from GaAs quantum wires are detected, allowing extracti…

A method is described for assembling gold nanorods into one-, two-, and three-dimensional superstructures. The addition of dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) into the nanorod solution was found to induce self-assembly of the latter to one-dimensional "tapelike", two-dimensional "sheetlike" and three-dimensional "superlatt…

We study a doubly-degenerate orbital model on a honeycomb attice. This is a model for orbital states in multiferroic layered iron oxides. The classical and quantum models are analyzed by spin-wave approximation, Monte-Carlo simulation and Lanczos method. A macroscopic number of degeneracy exists in the classical groun…

We report the direct observation of the spin-singlet dark excitonic state in individual single-walled carbon nanotubes through low-temperature micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy in magnetic fields. A magnetic field up to 5 T, applied along the nanotube axis, brightened the dark state, leading to the emergence of a n…

We present spin wave dispersions in MnO, NiO, and $α$-MnAs based on the quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ method (\qsgw), which determines an optimum quasiparticle picture. For MnO and NiO, \qsgw results are in rather good agreement with experiments, in contrast to the LDA and LDA+U description. For $α$-MnAs, we find…
