Abstract A key advantage of protein‐based materials is the potential to directly incorporate novel functions via gene fusion to produce a single chimeric polypeptide capable of both self‐assembly and the desired activity. However, facile production of functionalized protein materials is frequently hampered by the need…

We discuss the Brownian dynamics of colloids in confinement with special emphasis on the influence of the solvent dynamics. We review the derivation of a dynamic density functional theory (DDFT) including some aspects of hydrodynamic interactions and its application to the micro-rheology of suspensions. In particular…

We develop an electromagnetic theory of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) from coated nanoparticles with spherical anisotropy in the quasistatic limit. The multipolar polarizability of the spherically coated nanoparticle is derived on the basis of the first-principles approach, and then we employ the Gersten–Ni…

The equilibrium and flow of polymer films and drops past a surface are characterized by the interface and surface tensions, viscosity, slip length and hydrodynamic boundary position. These parameters of the continuum description are extracted from molecular simulations of coarse-grained models. Hard, corrugated substr…

High and large capacitance base–metal–electrode multilayer ceramic capacitors (BME MLCCs) for future application require much thinner dielectric layers (<l μm) than ever before, which means that grain size uniformity of BME MLCC powder should be effectively controlled. In this paper, high‐performance nanosized BME…

In this paper, highly pure Na 0.5 K 0.5 NbO 3 nanopowder was prepared from an economical sol–gel method. Using the nanopowder, dense Na 0.5 K 0.5 NbO 3 ceramics with ultrafine grain sizes in the range of 200–600 nm were fabricated successfully by low‐temperature solid‐state sintering at 1085°C for 4 h. The ultrafine‐g…

Herein we report the synthesis of propanoic acid functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) with various lengths of alkyl chain on the imidazole ring. The synthesized propanoic acid functionalized ILs were used to dissolve Eu(2)O(3) (or Tb(4)O(7)) due to the formation of europium(III) (or terbium(III)) carboxylate, aimed to g…

Größer ist nicht immer besser: Rhodiumpartikel unter 2.5 nm werden auf reduzierbaren Trägern wie Cerdioxid unter CO-Oxidationsbedingungen oxidiert und stabilisiert, während Metallpartikel über 4 nm metallisch bleiben. Die sehr kleinen Rhodiumoxidpartikel sind in der CO-Oxidation zwei Größenordnungen aktiver als die me…

Mechanical properties of ultrathin zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires of about 0.7-1.1 nm width and in the unbuckled wurtzite (WZ) phase have been carried out by molecular dynamics simulation. As the width of the nanowire decreases, Young's modulus, stress-strain behavior, and yielding stress all increase. In addition, the yi…
