Abstract Functionally graded carbon nanotube (CNT)‐reinforced aluminum (Al) matrix composites have been successfully fabricated by a powder metallurgy route. The gradient layers containing different amounts of CNT additions showed different microstructures and hardness. Each layer demonstrated good adhesion, with no s…
Ultrathin hexagonal SnS(2) nanosheets are synthesized via a simple hydrothermal reaction. The nanosheets have been applied as an anode for lithium-ion battery, which shows highly reversible capacity and good cycling stability with excellent capacity retention of 96% after 50 cycles.
This study demonstrates the use of aptamer-conjugated graphene oxide as an affinity extraction and detection platform for analytes from complex biological media. We have shown that cocaine and adenosine can be selectively enriched from plasma samples and that direct mass spectrometric readouts can be obtained without…
We report the first inert gas sensing and characterization studies based on high-resolution localized surface plasmon resonance (HR-LSPR) spectroscopy. HR-LSPR was used to detect the extremely small changes (<3 × 10(-4)) in bulk refractive index when the gas was switched between He(g) and Ar(g) or He(g) and N2(g). We…
Cellulose and even spruce can be converted efficiently into valuable platform chemicals via combined hydrolysis and hydrogenation in the aqueous phase. Thereby, heteropoly acids together with supported ruthenium catalysts show not only high activity but also remarkable selectivity to sugar alcohols reaching up to 81%…
Classical molecular dynamics simulations were performed to investigate the effects of salt on the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM). PNIPAM is often studied as a protein proxy due to the presence of a peptide bond in its monomer unit. PNIPAM is a temperature sensitive…
An (hk0)-oriented p-type CaFe2O4 (E(g): 1.9 eV) photocathode was prepared, and hydrogen and oxygen gases were produced from a photocell short-circuited by connecting the CaFe2O4 and n-type TiO2 electrodes under illumination without applying an external voltage. The open-circuited voltage was 0.97 V and the short-circu…
Silica coated magnetite (Fe3O4@SiO2) core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) with controlled silica shell thicknesses were prepared by a modified Stöber method using 20 nm hydrophilic Fe3O4 NPs as seeds. The core-shell NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution TE…
We consider theoretically tunneling characteristic of a junction between a normal metal and a chain of coupled Majorana bound states generated at crossings between topological and nontopological superconducting sections, as a result of, for example, disorder in nanowires. While an isolated Majorana state supports a re…
Abstract This paper focuses on the development of swellable thermoplastic elastomer alloys based on elastomeric powder, polypropylene, and superabsorbent polymer. The mechanical and swelling properties of the resulting materials were investigated at varying concentrations of the components and by compatiblization betw…
A normalized modal analysis of binary gratings under normal TE incidence involving the most condensed set of optogeometrical parameters gives a complete solution to the problem of canceling the 0(th) transmitted order in phase masks of a low-to-high refractive index ratio down to 0.5 with a large tolerance on the corr…
The compound 3,4-di-(2′-hydroxyethoxy)-4-diphenyl-hydrazonomethyl was synthesized from the reaction of 3,4-dihydroxy-4-diphenyl-hydrazonomethyl with 2–chloro–1–ethanol in a 1:2 mole ratio, and subsequent reaction with methylene–4,4′–diphenyldiisocyanate (MDI) to produce the new nonlinear polyurethane. The chemical str…
We present the effect of introducing a TiO2 buffer layer at the SrTiO3/Co:TiO2 interface on the magnetic and structural properties of anatase Co:TiO2 (1.4 at. % Co). Inserting the buffer layer leads to suppression of the room-temperature anomalous Hall effect, accompanied by a reduced density of Co clusters, and a dif…
Determination of features of weave patterns is a crucial task in practice, including determination of equivalent weave patterns, determination of weave type, repeat period detection, pattern correction, representation of fabric structures and pattern searching from a collection of weave patterns. Most previous researc…
The fineness and maturity of a cotton fiber is determined by its cross-sectional perimeter and area. However, measuring fiber cross-sectional perimeter and area is an extremely tedious and challenging task. This paper presents an alternative approach to measure fiber longitudinal width using Fraunhofer diffraction pat…
Abstract A polystyrene‐block‐poly(ferrocenylethylmethylsilane) diblock copolymer, displaying a double‐gyroid morphology when self‐assembled in the solid state, has been prepared with a PFEMS volume fraction ϕPFEMS = 0.39 and a total molecular weight of 64 000 Da by sequential living anionic polymerisation. A block cop…
Fabric hand refers to the subjective perception of fabric mechanical properties. It is an important factor in fabric selection. In the literature, various instruments and tools have been developed to evaluate fabric hand by means of the related physical and mechanical properties. These works have studied the predictio…
Nanocomposite of polyaniline containing Fe3O4 and Fe2O3 was synthesized by a chemical method using hydroxypropylcellulose as a steric stabilizer. The characteristics of product such as, morphology, conductivity, and particle size were studied. The results indicate that, these properties were dependent on the surfactan…
We demonstrate a three-dimensionally macroporous Si 9R polytype that exhibits a different electronic structure than bulk diamond-structured Si. Unlike the latter one which has an indirect-bandgap transition close to the zone boundary, the conduction band minimum in this material, as revealed by valence electron energy…
Abstract Biominerals provide excellent mechanical properties for skeletal support and protection, rivaling and even outperforming those of many engineered ceramics fabricated at high temperatures and pressures. However, the mechanisms of biomineralization are still poorly understood. To make progress in this direction…
