The power conversion efficiency of polymer solar cells today has passed 10%, the commonly acceptable value for commercial usage. However, in general labs, the power conversion efficiency routinely achievable is only at 3–5% because of the lack of effective tools to optimize the device design and the fabrication proces…
This paper reports a modeling study on sprite streamer formation at subbreakdown conditions, i.e., the initiation of sprite streamers in a lightning field below the breakdown threshold field Ek. Successful formation of streamers is observed for a variety of electric fields with the lowest field of 0.3Ekwhen an appropr…
Although o-phenylene oligomers (OP(n)R) made of dimethoxyphenylene units are thought to be intrinsically dynamic due to π-electronic repulsion, we show that they fold into a regular helical geometry in CH(3)CN when they carry terminal groups such as CH(3), CH(2)OH, Br, CO(2)Bn, and NO(2). We evaluated their helical in…
Molecular dynamics with an embedded-atom method potential is used to simulate the nanoindentation of Cu[subscript 63.5]Zr[subscript 36.5] metallic glasses. In particular, the effects of cyclic loading within the nominal elastic range on the overall strength and plasticity of metallic glass are studied. The simulated r…
A series of oxide supported mono-, bi-, and trimetallic nanoparticle catalysts were synthesized and screened for catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of mono-, poly-, and heteroaromatic substrates. Seventy-two different catalysts were screened for catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of toluene, naphthalene, p…

A strong polyelectrolyte hydrogel was graft copolymerized on a polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration (UF) membrane using vinyl sulfonic acid (VSA) as the functional monomer, and N,N'-methylenbisacrylamide (MBAA) as the cross-linker monomer. This was carried out in one simple step using the UV photoirradiation method.…
A series of anion conductive aromatic ionomers, poly(arylene ether)s containing various polymer backbones and quaternary ammonium basic group functioned tetraphenyl methane moieties, were synthesized via nucleophilic substitution polycondensation, chloromethylation, quaternization, and the subsequent alkalization reac…
4-mercaptobenzonitrile (MBN) in self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on Au and Ag electrodes was studied by surface enhanced infrared absorption and Raman spectroscopy, to correlate the nitrile stretching frequency with the local electric field exploiting the vibrational Stark effect (VSE). Using MBN SAMs in different met…
[Fe(IV)═O(TBC)(CH(3)CN)](2+) (TBC = 1,4,8,11-tetrabenzyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) is characterized, and its reactivity differences relative to [Fe(IV)═O(TMC)(CH(3)CN)](2+) (TMC = 1,4,8,11-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) are evaluated in hydrogen atom (H-atom) abstraction and oxo-transfer react…
How to find early gastric cancer cells in vivo is a great challenge for the diagnosis and therapy of gastric cancer. This study is aimed at investigating the feasibility of using fluorescent magnetic nanoparticle (FMNP)-labeled mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to realize targeted imaging and hyperthermia therapy of in vi…
Antiinflammatory compounds in the diet can alleviate excessive inflammation, a factor in the pathogenesis of common diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis and diabetes. This study examined three European herbs, chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla), meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria L.) and willow bark (Sal…
The kinetics of oxidation of two large n -alkanes ( n -undecane and n -dodecane) was studied experimentally in a jet-stirred reactor (JSR) at high pressure ( P = 10 bar), at temperatures ranging from 550 to 1150 K, at a constant residence time (τ) of 1 s, and for three equivalence ratios (ϕ = 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0). Chemi…
Active-metal templating has been used to synthesize rotaxanes consisting of a phenanthroline-based macrocycle threaded around a C8, C12, or C20 polyyne chain. The crystal structure of the C12 rotaxane has been determined. In the rhenium(I) carbonyl complex of this rotaxane, with Re(CO)(3)Cl coordinated to the phenanth…
Field-driven domain wall (DW) propagation in ferromagnetic nanotubes displays unusual effects, as revealed by a micromagnetic study. The left-right symmetry of the DW dynamics is broken, yielding markedly different DW mobilities for opposite propagation directions. This asymmetry arises from the tubular geometry and i…
We investigate the resistive switching mechanism and the thermal stability in room temperature-fabricated nonvolatile memory consisting of W/TaOx/Pt. By comparing the chemical bonding of Ta 4f between high and low resistance states at W/TaOx and TaOx/Pt interfaces, the switching mechanism is confirmed to be dominated…
Owing to well-defined structural parameters and enhanced electronic properties, highly ordered TiO(2) nanotube arrays have been employed to substitute TiO(2) nanoparticles for use in dye-sensitized solar cells. To further improve the performance of dye-sensitized TiO(2) nanotube solar cells, efforts have been directed…
The crystal structure of the promising Li-ion battery cathode material LiFeBO(3) has been redetermined based on the results of single crystal X-ray diffraction data. A commensurate modulation that doubles the periodicity of the lattice in the a-axis direction is observed. When the structure of LiFeBO(3) is refined in…
The magnetization reversal in ordered arrays of Co nanowires with tailored hcp-phase texture, controlled by pH synthesis and nanowires length, has been investigated. The angular dependence of coercivity has been experimentally determined for different crystal textures, and the corresponding magnetization reversal mode…
Amphiphilic copolymers containing different amounts of poly(ethylene glycol)-fluoroalkyl acrylate and polysiloxane methacrylate units were blended with a poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) matrix in different proportions to investigate the effect of both copolymer composition and loading on the biological performance of t…
