Abstract Clay‐polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites (NCs) were prepared by melt processing. Two types of PP with different levels of crystallinity were used. Mixtures of the two PPs were made at different ratios that generate a varying degree of crystallinity for the final NC samples. The level of micro‐ and nanodispersio…

A manganocolumbite with nominal composition MnNb 2 O 6 has been prepared under air in order to characterize its electrical behavior. Although powder X-ray diffraction indicates the presence of a single phase, electrical and microscopic characterization reveals two different bulk responses. The origin of these two bulk…

Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (GRGDS) was modified by conjugation to lauric acid (LA) to facilitate incorporation into the matrix of a poly(carbonate-urea)urethane (PCU) used in vascular bypass grafts. GRGDS and LA-GRGDS were synthesized using solid phase Fmoc chemistry and characterized by high performance liquid chromatograph…

Farbwechsel: Goldnanopartikel (GNPs), die mit einem Kronenether und Liponsäure funktionalisiert sind, eignen sich für den raschen Nachweis von Analyten mit dem bloßen Auge. Beim Brechen der Wasserstoffbrücken zwischen aggregierten GNPs unter Bildung einer Dispersion tritt eine Farbänderung ein. So lässt sich beispiels…

Direct neutral metal emission from MgO nanostructures is induced using laser light tuned to excite specific surface sites at energies well below the excitation threshold of the bulk material. We find that near UV excitation of MgO nanocrystalline films and nanocube samples desorbs neutral Mg atoms with hyperthermal ki…

The neutralization reaction between the meso -tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TPPC) and O -(2-aminopropyl)- O ‘-(2-methoxyethyl)poly(propylene glycol) (Jeffamine M-600) in 1:4 stoichiometric ratio affords a stable supramolecular adduct (TPPC@Jeffamine). This species has been characterized in aqueous and chloroform…

There have been many recent experimental studies of rare earth (RE) phosphate glasses, (RE 2 O 3 ) x (P 2 O 5 ) 1− x , but only two previous reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modelling studies. The current study reports the first molecular dynamics model of an RE phosphate glass, for Tb metaphosphate glass, with x = 0.25. The…

The carbon nanotube (CNT) is a promising reinforcement material for manufacturing metal-or ceramic-based composites. However, CNTs are prone to interact with the matrix in a reactive atmosphere that often alters the structure and properties of CNTs and depresses their reinforcing effect. To overcome this problem, a pr…

We carry out systematic molecular mechanics (MM) analyses to study the effect of the displacement increment on the critical buckling strain of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under axial compression. The SWCNT geometric parameters, such as the tube length, diameter, and chirality, are varied in the numerical s…

Abstract We have investigated the temperature dependence of temporal behaviors of the A X and A T luminescence bands in NH 4 Cl:Tl + single crystals under an ArF excimer laser excitation. The time‐resolved A X luminescence spectra reveal the existence of two luminescence bands which are attributed to the radiative tra…

Optical vortices are shown to be generated in the near-field through interference between a propagating wave and the amplified evanescent field in a slab of lossy left-handed material. While small loss adversely impacts the sub-wavelength performance in the lens application, the vortex character shown relies on some d…
