The authors show that superhydrophilic TiO2 can be obtained without irradiation of the surface with ultraviolet (UV) light and concomitant excitation of electron-hole pairs. The authors demonstrate that the treatment of TiO2 surfaces with reactive oxygen species generated by air plasma removes the surface organic cont…

CONTEXT: Triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) is a ubiquitous enzyme that has been targeted for the discovery of small molecular weight compounds with potential use against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease. We have identified a new selective inhibitor chemotype of TIM from T. cruzi (TcTIM), 1,2,4-th…

A selective liquid/solid displacement reaction has been used, for the first time, to convert non‐oxide ceramic solid solutions into composites comprised of intragranular metal nanoparticles embedded within non‐oxide ceramic microcrystals. The reaction of ( Zr x W 1− x ) C microparticles with a Zr – Cu liquid at 1300°C…

Ordered phases on curved substrates experience a complex interplay of ordering and intrinsic curvature, commonly producing frustration and singularities. This is an especially important issue in crystals as ever-smaller scale materials are grown on real surfaces; eventually, surface imperfections are on the same scale…

The pressure dependence of bulk properties for the group 12 chalcogenides MX (M = Zn, Cd, Hg; X = S, Se, Te) from density functional theory are presented. Energy-volume and corresponding enthalpy-pressure relationships are determined to obtain the transition paths and properties of various high-pressure phases. The in…

Two new coordination polymers, [Zn(p-CH3C6H5SO3)2(bpp)2] n (1) and [Cu2(SCN)2(NO3)2(bpp)4] n (2) (bpp = 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane), have been synthesized and characterized. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that 1 and 2 exhibit 2-D layer networks composed of alternate left-handed and right-handed bpp-c…

We examine the complexation behavior of polyelectrolyte stars on oppositely charged colloidal particles with similar sizes by means of computer simulations employing the molecular dynamics approach. In particular the overcharging phenomenon is considered and its dependence on the charge and functionality of the stars.…

4-Alkylaryl layers were electrodeposited on Au surface via formation in situ of diazonium cations and the subsequent electroreduction in solution of 4-alkylanilines (4-CH 3 (CH 2 ) n C 6 H 4 NH 2, n = 5–13). The electrodeposited layers were characterized with X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), an atomic force microsco…

The second osmotic virial coefficient is in principle obtained from the second-order term in the expansion of the osmotic pressure Π or solute activity z(2) in powers of the solute density ρ(2) at fixed solvent activity z(1) and temperature T. It is remarked that the second-order terms in the analogous expansions at f…

It is well known that the Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) theory and the classical Gouy-Chapman theory are inconsistent at a high applied voltage. For solving this problem, we propose an ion-conserving Poisson-Boltzmann theory, which shows remarkable agreement with the numerical PNP solutions, even at a high applied volta…
