Transfer of photoexcited charge from PbS nanocrystals to ligand molecules is investigated in different solvents. We find that the charge transfer rate increases dramatically with solvent dielectric constant. This trend is accounted for by a modified Marcus theory that incorporates only static dielectric effects. The c…

Low temperature growth of epitaxial graphene on SiC is facilitated by carbon evaporation under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions. By counteracting the need for complete Si depletion as in the conventional sublimation method, monolayer graphene evolves at significantly lower temperatures by depositing additional carbon…

Eu 2 + , Dy3+, and Er3+ ions codoped SrAl2O4 phosphors with near infrared (NIR) (at 1530 nm) long-persistent phosphorescence were synthesized by a combustion method. The NIR phosphorescence emission was realized through a persistent energy transfer process from Eu2+ ions to Er3+ ions. Optimal Er3+ concentration for th…

There are no treatments for reversing or halting cataract, a disease of the structural proteins in the eye lens, that has associations with other age-related degenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. The incidence of cataract and associated conditions is increasing as the average age of the population rises…

We present in this Letter a free-energy approach to the dynamics of a fluid near a nanostructured surface. The model accounts both for the static phase equilibrium in the vicinity of the surface (wetting angles, Cassie-Wenzel transition) and the dynamical properties like liquid slippage at the boundary. This method br…
