First-order branched tree structures of MoO 3 belts on sillimanite fibers (refractor wool) were grown by a vapor transport method. At longer growth times, MoO 3 micro-belts on micro-belts form a flower-like structure. Most belts are of α-MoO 3, and they grow in the two opposite directions along the c -axis. They show…

Abstract The structural properties of high porosity nanoporous silicon were researched with the manufacture of integrated nano‐explosive devices in mind. A three‐dimensional nanoporous layer structural model, consisting of cylindrical crystallites, is proposed. Model parameters are derived from gravimetric techniques…

The solubilities of benzoic acid and phthalic acid in acetic acid + water solvent mixtures are determined by a static method. The experimental temperature ranges from (298.3 to 367.9) K, and the mass fraction of acetic acid in the solvent mixtures ranges from 0.8 to 1.0. The experimental results show that, within the…

Abstract (K 1– x Na x )NbO 3 ( x = 0.01, 0.24, 0.89, 0.91, 0.99) single crystalline powders with perovskite structure were synthesized by a hydrothermal method with Nb 2 O 5 in a mixed solution of KOH and NaOH at 220 °C for 24 h. XRD investigations showed that the structure of the synthesized (K 1– x Na x )NbO 3 ceram…

The production of clean hydrogen is a key requirement for a future hydrogen economy, in general, and, specifically, for the application of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). Here, we focus on one of the essential purification methods, the so-called “PROX” reaction, the preferential oxidation of traces of CO…

In this paper, the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) technique that allows the determination of space charge in a dielectric material has been used to monitor the electrical potential decay of corona-charged polyethylene films of different thicknesses. To prevent possible disturbance of the surface charge during the PEA me…

Nitrilases convert nitriles to the corresponding carboxylic acids and ammonia. The nitrilase from Rhodococcus rhodochrous J1 is known to be inactive as a dimer but to become active on oligomerization. The recombinant enzyme undergoes post-translational cleavage at approximately residue 327, resulting in the formation…

In this paper, we described the fabrication of hybrid nanocomposite by bottom-up alternating preparation of organic and inorganic layers, toward the mimicking biomineralization process of natural nacre. The organic layers are layer-by-layer (LBL) polymer thin films of diazo-resins (DAR) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), w…

We study the problem of impurities and midgap states in a biased graphene bilayer. We show that the properties of the bound states, such as localization lengths and binding energies, can be controlled externally by an electric field effect. Moreover, the band gap is renormalized and impurity bands are created at finit…

Luminescence functionalization of the ordered mesoporous SBA-15 silica was realized by depositing a YVO4:Eu3+ phosphor layer on its surface via the Pechini sol-gel process, resulting in the formation of the YVO4:Eu3+@SBA-15 composite material. This material, which combines the mesoporous structure of SBA-15 and the st…

Abstract We study experimentally and theoretically coupling mechanisms between metamaterial elements of the split ring resonator (SRR) type. We show that, depending on the orientation of the elements relative to each other, the coupling may be either of magnetic or electric type or a combination of both. Experimental…

A length threshold for cell uptake of DNA-wrapped single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by human lung fibroblasts (IMR90) is identified. Competitive uptake experiments with well-defined and characterized length fractions show that SWNTs above the length threshold are excluded from the cell, whereas SWNTs labeled with…
