The Red Queen remains (700 A.C.) found at Palenque, México, are examples of cinnabar (HgS) application to royal remains during pre-Hispanic times. The Red Queen remains are those of a ca. 30–35-yr-old female and present a striking similarity to the remains of another Mayan woman found at Copan, Honduras. Thus, coverin…

Background: Engineered nanomaterials such as metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) offer unique physico-chemical properties and are widely used in sunscreen formulations and personal care products. NPs become coated with proteins when exposed to biological fluids, forming the 'nanoparticle-protein corona' (NP-PC), which may…

The possibility of making an optically large (many wavelengths in diameter) object appear invisible has been a subject of many recent studies. Exact invisibility scenarios for large (relative to the wavelength) objects involve (meta)materials with superluminal phase velocity [refractive index (RI) less than unity] and…

Notably enhanced Mn 2+ yellow emission is observed in CsCl modified and Eu 2+ / Mn 2+ codoped Ge – Ga – S glasses under near‐ultraviolet ( NUV ) excitation. The plausible efficiency of energy transfer ( ET ) from Eu 2+ to Mn 2+ is as high as 91%, which is obtained by measurement of luminescence decay of Eu 2+ in sampl…

Sintering temperature dependences of specific surface area, pore size distribution, and pore volume of La Ni 0.6 Fe 0.4 O 3 ceramics prepared using the Pechini method have been evaluated from the adsorption isotherms of N 2 gas at −195.8°C. The specific surface area decreased almost linearly with increasing sintering…
