This paper addresses the origin of the decrease in the external electrical bias required for water photoelectrolysis with hematite photoanodes, observed following surface treatments of such electrodes. We consider two alternative surface modifications: a cobalt oxo/hydroxo-based (CoO(x)) overlayer, reported previously…
Conjugates of DNA and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) typically exploit the strong Au-S chemistry to self-assemble thiolated oligonucleotides at AuNPs. However, it remains challenging to precisely control the orientation and conformation of surface-tethered oligonucleotides and finely tune the hybridization ability. We her…
We report on the optical properties of plasmonic hole arrays as they apply to requirements for plasmonic color filters designed for state-of-the-art Si CMOS image sensors. The hole arrays are composed of hexagonally packed subwavelength sized holes on a 150 nm Al film designed to operate at the primary colors of red,…
Recent advances in polymer synthesis have significantly enhanced the ability to rationally design block copolymers with tailored functionality. The self-assembly of these macromolecules in the solid state or in solution allows the formation of nanostructured materials with a variety of properties and potential functio…
The template carbonization method is a powerful tool for producing carbon materials with precisely controlled structures at the nanometer level. The resulting templated nanocarbons exhibit extraordinarily unique (often ordered) structures that could never be produced by any of the conventional methods for carbon produ…
CO 2 photoreduction with water vapor has been studied on three TiO 2 nanocrystal polymorphs (anatase, rutile, and brookite) that were engineered with defect-free and oxygen-deficient surfaces, respectively. It was demonstrated that helium pretreatment of the as-prepared TiO 2 at a moderate temperature resulted in the…
The results of a microscopy, SEM-EDS, XRD, FTIR, and Raman spectra study of the nacres of the Pinctada martensii pearls from Zhanjiang city, China shows that they can be classified as the high-quality, medium-quality, and inferior-quality pearls. Aragonite, the main inorganic mineralogy in the nacres, was crystallized…
We present the experimental evidence of RF demodulation by a graphene monolayer embedded in a coplanar structure. The demodulator was tested in the frequency range from 100 MHz to 25 GHz using amplitude modulated input signals. An input power of 0 dBm (1 mW) was used, which is the typical power emitted for short range…
Abstract The accessibility of functional groups of 3,6‐O‐chitosansulfate in water is studied using conductometric and polyelectrolyte titration techniques. These studies reveal the good accessibility of protonated amino groups following conductometric titrations and pH dependency on the accessibility of negatively cha…
Using combined density functional theory and nonequilibrium Green’s function techniques, we demonstrate that hydrogenated armchair single-walled carbon nanotubes (H-CNTs) can exhibit electronic, magnetic, and transport properties remarkably similar to zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs). Hydrogen atoms break the circu…
利用掺锑的纳米SnO 2 和水性聚氨酯(WPU)制备了透明隔热的复合涂层. 实验发现涂层的隔热起因于涂层中掺锑的纳米SnO 2 粒子对红外线的吸收. 隔热测试结果表明在阳光的照射下, 涂层表面的温度升高, 而测试箱内的温度最大下降17.5℃. 实验制备的掺锑的纳米SnO 2 /WPU复合隔热涂层具有许多优点, 如成本低、化学性能稳定、制作方便等, 是一种性价比较高的隔热涂层.
This paper presents a realistic design of a three-dimensional invisibility full cloak device at Terahertz frequency, consisting of radially arranged polymer slabs covered with III-V semiconductor materials featuring Drude-like resonance. By applying high order optical transformation, it is possible to constrain the se…
Growth of Ge2Sb2Te5 phase-change films on flexible polyimide substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is demonstrated. The effect of annealing temperature on the crystalline nature of the films was studied. A decrease of (200) lattice plane distance with the increase of annealing temperature was revealed for the fi…
SUMMARY In order to develop polymer‐clay nanocomposites with reduced flammability by incorporation of char‐forming conventional nitrogen and phosphorus based flame retardants at low loading levels, the polypropylene‐clay nanocomposites were prepared by melt blending method with Cloisite 15A (15A), organic phosphinate…
Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of adsorbed molecule on colloidal gold nanoparticles of different shapes, namely nanospheres (NSs), nanorods (NRs), and nanoprisms (NPs) as well as the three NPs arrays of different interstice prepared by NS lithography, are studied with incident wavenumbers in the near‐dipole…
Heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol)s can be used for many biomedical applications ranging from solubility enhancement of hardly soluble compounds to surface modification of medical devices. In order to modify gold nanoparticles as model particles for drug targeting applications, PEG derivatives are synthesized th…
In this study, we develop a detailed numerical approach towards the theoretical calculation of the phonon contribution to the dimensionless figure of merit $ZT$ that parameterizes the efficiency of the thermoelectric effect, and apply it to the case of an $n$-doped Si${}_{0.754}$Ge${}_{0.246}$ alloy sample. This is ac…
The reaction of either V(2)F(6)·4H(2)O or a mixture of 60 wt % VF(2)·4H(2)O and 40 wt % VF(3)·3H(2)O with a water-saturated gaseous mixture of 15-20 vol % hydrogen in argon leads to the formation of a new polymorph of V(3)O(5) crystallizing in the orthorhombic anosovite-type structure. Quantum-chemical calculations sh…
The α(4) atropoisomer of a tetraaryl porphyrin and its Pd(II) complex, both bearing four hydroxyquinolinyl chelating units pre-organised on the same face of the porphyrin backbone, bind a Nd(III) centre thus affording either a mononuclear or a heterobinuclear anionic species, respectively. The near-infrared emission o…
Abstract The capability of UVM‐7 silicas to work as supports for drug storage and delivery is investigated using ibuprofen as a model. UVM‐7 silicas are surfactant‐assisted synthesised mesoporous materials displaying a characteristic bimodal pore architecture related to their nanoparticulate texture. Strict control of…
