The interactions between zirconia (ZrO 2 ) powder and three Algerian hydrated kaolinitic clays were studied at high temperatures. The analysis by X‐ray diffraction of the prepared products allowed to follow the different phase developments during heat treatment and to identify the parameters controlling the zirconia c…
Chemical biology aims for a perfect control of protein complexes in time and space by their site-specific labeling, manipulation, and structured organization. Here we developed a self-inactivated, lock-and-key recognition element whose binding to His-tagged proteins can be triggered by light from zero to nanomolar aff…
Highly biocompatible luminescent superparamagnetic nanocomposites have been synthesized from Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 −QDs (IQ). Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles coated with a silica shell, Fe 3 O 4 /SiO 2 (IOS), and water-soluble CdSe−ZnS quantum dots (QDs) were assembled together by the conjugation of an SH group. X-ray diffraction (X…
Magnetoresponsive smart capsules formed with polyelectrolytes, lipid bilayers and magnetic nanoparticles were fabricated by a colloid-templating technique. Melamine-formaldehyde core particles with polyelectrolyte multilayer shell were prepared by layer-by-layer assembly. Magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) nanoparticles were selec…
BACKGROUND: Recent advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of biocompatible nanoparticles for in vivo molecular imaging and targeted therapy. Many nanoparticles have undesirable tissue distribution or unacceptably low serum half-lives. Pharmacokinetic (PK) and biodistribution studies can help inform dec…
Spectral control of the emissivity of surfaces is essential for efficient conversion of solar radiation into heat. We investigated surfaces consisting of sub-wavelength V-groove gratings coated with aperiodic metal-dielectric stacks. The spectral behavior of the coated gratings was modeled using rigorous coupled-wave…
We introduce an in-situ characterization method of resists used for e-beam lithography. The technique is based on the application of an atomic force microscope which is directly mounted below the cathode of an electron-beam lithography system. We demonstrate that patterns irradiated by the e-beam can be efficiently vi…
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the fragmentation of polymeric materials by impacting polypropylene particles of spherical shape against a hard wall. Experiments reveal a power law mass distribution of fragments with an exponent close to 1.2, which is significantly different from the known exponent…
We propose an approach to quasiparticle GW calculations which does not require the computation of unoccupied electronic states. In our approach the screened Coulomb interaction is evaluated by solving self-consistent linear-response Sternheimer equations and the noninteracting Green's function is evaluated by solving…
We study domain wall (DW) dynamics in permalloy nanowires excited by alternating spin-polarized current applied perpendicular to the nanowire. Spin torque ferromagnetic resonance measurements reveal that DW oscillations at a pinning site in the nanowire can be excited with velocities as high as 800 m/s at current dens…
Standard mixtures of tetragonal and monoclinic zirconia powders have been carefully prepared in order to cover the complete weight range from 0% to 100% of monoclinic phase, and they have been analyzed by X‐ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Several equations given in the literature for determining the compositio…
Nine samples of ochre originating from the Sentier des Ocres near Roussillon, France, were studied with Mossbauer spectroscopy and Spectro-photo-colorimetry. The former yielded a quantitative phase analysis of iron containing minerals (goethite, hematite and kaolin), and the latter enabled determination of the CIE-L*a…
A series of sigma-phase Fe_{100-x}V_x samples with 34.4 < x < 59.0 were investigated by neutron and X-ray diffraction and Mossbauer spectroscopy (MS) techniques. The first two methods were used for verification of the transformation from alpha to sigma phase and they also permitted to determine lattice parameters of t…
Complex multicomponent systems based on PbTe, SnTe, and GeTe are of great interest for infrared devices and high-temperature thermoelectric applications. A deeper understanding of the atomic and electronic structure of these materials is crucial for explaining, predicting, and optimizing their properties, and to sugge…
Thermal fluctuation of the cantilever position sets a fundamental limit for the precision of any Scanning Force Microscope. In the present work we analyse how these fluctuations limit the determination of the resonance frequency of the tip-sample system. The basic principles of frequency detection in Dynamic Scanning…
We study two reciprocal thermal effects in the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As by scattering theory: domain wall motion induced by a temperature gradient as well as heat currents pumped by a moving domain wall. The effective out-of-plane thermal spin transfer torque parameter $P_Q β_{Q}$, which governs the coupl…
Heterostructured ABA thin films consisting of two different Prussian blue analogues, where A is a ferromagnet and B is a photoinducible ferrimagnet, have been fabricated for the first time. This novel arrangement allows the magnetization to be decreased by irradiation with white light and significantly increases the o…
We report direct observation of controlled and reversible switching of magnetic domains using static (dc) electric fields applied in situ during Lorentz microscopy. The switching is realized through electromechanical coupling in thin film Fe(0.7)Ga(0.3)/BaTiO(3) bilayer structures mechanically released from the growth…
The electromagnetic (EM) enhancement in surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) is quantitatively evaluated for rhodamine molecules adsorbed on Ag nanostructures. Polarization dependence of the plasma resonance (plasmon resonance) and the SERRS spectra from single isolated Ag nanostructures was evaluated t…
Point-contact spectroscopy was originally developed for the determination of the electron–phonon spectral function in normal metals. However, in the past 20 years it has become an important tool in the investigation of superconductors. As a matter of fact, point contacts between a normal metal and a superconductor can…
