We report the systematic investigation of polarized Raman scattering on individual crystalline GaP nanowires (NWs) with diameters $40<d<600\text{ }\text{nm}$. At small diameter, $d<70\text{ }\text{nm}$, the NWs are found to act like a nearly perfect dipole antenna that leads to a polarized scattering intensity functio…

The reactions of small gold cluster cations Au(x)(+) (x=2-6) with CH(4) were studied by joint gas-phase kinetics and first-principles density functional theory calculations. The experimentally obtained temperature-dependent low pressure rate constants were analyzed by employing the Lindemann energy transfer model for…

TiO(2) nanocomposites modified with the ionic liquid [Bmim]OH are synthesized by a hydrothermal procedure. X-ray diffraction, Zeta-potential measurement, TEM, thermogravimetric analysis, photoluminescence, UV/Vis, FTIR, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy are used to characterize the TiO(2) nanocomposites. The TiO(2)…

Since Lehn introduced the concept in the 1990s, supramolecular polymers have been developed rapidly by several research groups. Supramolecular polymers should be key materials for establishment of a sustainable society. This short review describes briefly hydrogen-bonded and coordination supramolecular polymers, and t…

The spun bond process is widely used to produce nonwoven fabrics. Components of a spunbond process typically include a polymer feed, an extruder, a metering pump, a die assembly, a filament spinning, a drawing and deposition system, a web formation, a bonding zone, and a winding. Spunbond products are variously used i…

We report the high-pressure synthesis of the whole series of orthorhombic perovskites ${\text{Sr}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{Pb}}_{x}{\text{RuO}}_{3}$ $(0.0\ensuremath{\le}x\ensuremath{\le}1.0)$. The high-pressure products have been characterized by x-ray powder diffraction. Systematic measurements of magnetic and tran…

Despite the recent interest in ``organic spintronics,'' the dominant spin relaxation mechanism of electrons or holes in an organic compound semiconductor has not been conclusively identified. There have been sporadic suggestions that it might be hyperfine interaction caused by background nuclear spins, but no confirma…

Fullerene-based bulk heterojunction solar cells were fabricated, and the electronic and optical properties were investigated. C60 were used as n-type semiconductors, and porphyrin, CuInS2 and diamond were used as p-type semiconductors. An effect of exciton-diffusion blocking layer of perylene derivative on the solar c…

Some marginally stable proteins undergo microsecond time scale folding reactions that involve significant populations of partly ordered forms, making it difficult to discern individual steps in their folding pathways. It has been suggested that many of these proteins fold non-cooperatively, with no significant barrier…

A series of Ni/MgO catalysts have been prepared by a urea–nitrate combustion method, studied for the ethanol steam reforming, and compared with Ni/ZnO and Ni/Al2O3. The results show that Ni/MgO is superior to the latter two types of catalysts, especially in terms of H2 yield. Influential factors, including Ni loading,…

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an emerging approach for the treatment of tumor diseases that has received growing interest in the past few years. In this study, we constructed liposomal photosensitizers (PS) for PDT by shoehorning as light-harvesting "antenna" molecules and dense [60]fullerene (C60) into lipid membrane…

BACKGROUND: Cytoplasmic pH homeostasis in Escherichia coli includes numerous mechanisms involving pH-dependent catabolism and ion fluxes. An important contributor is transmembrane K+ flux, but the actual basis of K+ compensation for pH stress remains unclear. Osmoprotection could mediate the pH protection afforded by…
