One of the factors limiting electron mobility in supported graphene is remote phonon scattering. We formulate the theory of the coupling between graphene plasmon and substrate surface polar phonon (SPP) modes and find that it leads to the formation of interfacial plasmon-phonon (IPP) modes, from which the phenomena of…
A confined workspace has its benefits in the case of a non-acid solid catalyst prepared by encapsulating [CoIII(salen)] in the nanocages of mesoporous silica. The catalytic activity and selectivity of [CoIII(salen)] were increased significantly owing to the enhanced cooperative activation effect in the nanoreactors. T…
This paper describes the formation of complex peptide-based structures by the coassembly of two simple peptides, the diphenylalanine peptide and its tert-butyl dicarbonate (Boc) protected analogue. Each of these peptides can self-assemble into a distinct architecture: the diphenylalanine peptide into tubular structure…
This paper presents a study of hybrid effect on mechanical properties of tencel blended ring-, rotor- and Murata jet spinning yarns. The tensile strength, breaking elongation, flexural rigidity and abrasion resistance of tencel-polyester and tencel-cotton blended yarns are examined and compared with the value predicte…
Well-defined ferrocene-containing triblock copolymers were synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization and self-assembled into highly ordered hexagonal arrays of cylinders via solvent annealing. The thin films were further used as a template and converted into highly ordered iron oxide nanoparticles (α-Fe2O3)…
Gallium oxide (Ga2O3) thin films were deposited by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (ALD) using trimethylgallium as the gallium precursor and oxygen plasma as the oxidant. A wide ALD temperature window was observed from 100 to 400 °C, where deposition rate was constant at ∼0.53 Å/cycle. X-ray photoelectron spec…
Abstract In this article, we report the surface modification of branched polyethyleneimine (PEI) for improved biocompatibility. PEIs with different surface functionalities were synthesized via covalent modification of the PEI amines, including neutralized PEI modified with acetic anhydride, negatively charged PEI modi…
Homochiral Dy(III) complexes: by changing the ligand-to-metal ratio, enantiomeric pairs of a Dy(III) complex of different nuclearity could be obtained. The mono- and dinuclear complexes exhibit characteristics of single-molecule magnets and different slow magnetic relaxation processes. In addition, the dinuclear compl…
The hysteresis or internal friction in the deformation of crystalline solids stressed cyclically is studied from the viewpoint of collective dislocation dynamics. Stress-controlled simulations of a dislocation dynamics model at various loading frequencies and amplitudes are performed to study the stress-strain rate hy…
We derive the extended Ginzburg-Landau (GL) formalism for a clean $s$-wave two-band superconductor by employing a systematic expansion of the free-energy functional and the corresponding matrix gap equation in powers of the small deviation from the critical temperature $\ensuremath{\tau}=1\ensuremath{-}T/{T}_{c}$. The…
A method to precisely calibrate the oscillation amplitude in Dynamic Scanning Force Microscopy is described. It is experimentally shown that a typical electronics used to process the dynamic motion of the cantilever can be adjusted to transfer the thermal noise of the cantilever motion from its resonance frequency to…
The authors critically reviewed published lists of nano-objects and their physico-chemical properties deemed important for risk assessment and discussed metrological challenges associated with the development of nanoscale reference materials (RMs). Five lists were identified that contained 25 (classes of) nano-objects…
High-pressure electrical resistance measurements have been performed on single crystal Ba0.5Sr0.5Fe2As2 platelets to pressures of 16 GPa and temperatures down to 10 K using designer diamond anvils under quasi-hydrostatic conditions with an insulating steatite pressure medium. The resistance measurements show evidence…
Nuclear quadrupole interactions were measured at 111In/Cd probe atoms in rare-earth palladium phases RPd3 having the L12 structure using the technique of perturbed angular correlation of gamma rays (PAC). Measurements were made for pairs of samples having compositions of the Pd-poorer and Pd-rich boundaries of the RPd…
Controlled, deep breathing: Polymeric vesicles that exhibit reversible pH-induced “breathing” behavior accompanied by switchable fluorescence (see picture) were prepared through the aqueous self-assembly of an amphiphilic block copolymer. Mechanistic studies showed that this jellyfish-like breathing and light-emitting…
The formation of hierarchical porous protein scaffolds from oil-in-water (o/w) high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) stabilized by bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein nanoparticles (Pickering HIPE) is reported. The route consists of three principal steps. First, a stable o/w HIPE stabilized by BSA protein nanoparticles…
Electrospun composite nanofibrous scaffolds have attracted much interest for use as drug delivery vehicles in recent years. Herein, we attempted to first encapsulate the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) using inorganic rod-like nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HA) as a carrier. Then, the DOX-loaded n-HA particles were mixed wi…
Named after the two-faced roman god, Janus particles have gained much attention due to their potential in a variety of applications, including drug delivery. This is the first book devoted to Janus particles and covers their methods of synthesis, how these particles self-assemble, and their possible uses. By following…
Renewable ABA triblock copolymers were prepared by sequential polymerization of the plant-based monomers menthide and α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone (MBL or tulipalin A). Ring-opening transesterification polymerization of menthide using diethylene glycol as an initiator gave α,ω-dihydroxy poly(menthide) (HO-PM-OH), which…
Nucleation and growth mechanisms of short chains of carbon atoms on single-layer, hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and short BN chains on graphene are investigated using first-principles plane-wave calculations. Our analysis starts with the adsorption of a single carbon adatom and examines its migrations. Once a C${}_{2…
