The energy (magnetostatic, exchange and Zeeman terms) of a square array of cylindrical sub-micron dots made of soft ferromagnetic material is calculated analytically and minimized, taking into account quasi-uniformity of dots magnetization. The dependence of the equilibrium energy of the array on the direction of the…
In the present study, we report the synthesis and human growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) specific tumor targeting properties of a dendrimer conjugated to anti-HER2 mAb (monoclonal antibody) conjugate. The polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer generation five (G5) was labeled with alexaFluor 488 and conjugated to anti-HER2 m…
Single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) field effect transistors (FETs), functionalized noncovalently with a zinc porphyrin derivative, were used to directly detect a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) within a donor/acceptor (D/A) system. We report here that the SWNTs act as the electron donor and the porphyrin molecule…
We present an effective medium theory that simultaneously determines the effective permittivity and effective permeability of a magnetodielectric composite beyond the long-wavelength limit. In the long-wavelength limit, our theory reproduces previous results obtained in two and three dimensions. To verify our theory,…
As good as new: Perovskite-based catalysts containing Rh and Pt for use in exhaust-emissions control systems are developed. These catalysts are found to be self-regenerating and could thus lead to the use of lower amounts of precious metals. The picture shows the TEM image of Pt grains of catalyst CaTi0.95Pt0.05O3 age…
A series of TiO 2 -, Al 2 O 3 -, and SiO 2 -supported manganese oxide catalysts were prepared, characterized, and catalytically tested for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH 3 in the presence of excess oxygen at low temperatures (373−523 K). Various commercial supports were used in this study to find ou…
Normal mode splitting is observed in a cavity QED system in which nitrogen vacancy centers in diamond nanocrystals are coupled to whispering gallery modes in a silica microsphere. The composite nanocrystal-microsphere system takes advantage of the exceptional spin properties of nitrogen vacancy centers as well as the…
Despite occasional references in the older literature to the ability of gold to catalyze certain reactions, the metal has until recently had the reputation of being one of the least catalytically useful. The recent discovery that some supported gold catalysts can affect the oxidation of carbon monoxide at or below amb…
Abstract Summary: This review surveys methods for the fabrication, by plasma surface treatments or plasma polymerization, of polymeric surfaces and thin plasma polymer coatings that contain reactive chemical groups useful for the subsequent covalent immobilization, by solution chemical reactions or vapor phase graftin…
Many solid-state kinetic models have been developed in the past century. Some models were based on mechanistic grounds while others lacked theoretical justification and some were theoretically incorrect. Models currently used in solid-state kinetic studies are classified according to their mechanistic basis as nucleat…
The authors have synthesized single-crystal samples of the layered cobalt oxide Pb–Sr–Co–O and measured resistivity, thermopower, and Hall coefficient from 4.2to300K. The resistivity, the thermopower, and the Hall coefficient are 13mΩcm, 150μV∕K, and 1.6×10−2cm3∕C at 300K, respectively, which are typical values for a…
The authors carried an ab initio investigation on the properties of Mn impurities in BN, presenting results on stability, spin states, magnetic moment, hyperfine parameters, and formation and transition energies. Substitutional Mn in the cation site in BN was compared to that in GaN and GaAs. Due to the small BN latti…
A dual functional and water soluble spin-coatable lanthanum strontium manganese oxide (LSMO) resist has been developed that consists of lanthanum nitrate, strontium nitrate, manganese nitrate, polyvinyl alcohol and water. Energetic nitrates plus polyvinyl alcohol fuel promote autoignition and produce nanopatterns (<60…
The authors have fabricated patterned carbon nanotube arrays by a simple postgrowth imprinting method. Patterns with size down to 2μm can be formed with appropriate stamps. The imprinted array exhibited greatly enhanced field emission, the turn-on voltage was reduced to 0.9V∕μm from 2.8V∕μm of the as grown sample, and…
The authors present a direct method to quantitatively measure the indium composition of buried InAs quantum dots embedded in a GaAs matrix. In this method, spatially resolved electron-energy-loss spectroscopy combined with aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy at atomic resolution was employed…
The charge transport of polycrystalline SrTiO3 films doped with Cr is investigated by means of temperature- and electric-field-dependent current measurements. In particular, the effect of electrical stress on the conduction mechanism is analyzed to understand the forming process of samples exhibiting resistance-switch…
Adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-forming acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS; acetate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming), EC 6.2.1.1) is a key enzyme for conversion of acetate to acetyl-CoA, an essential intermediate at the junction of anabolic and catabolic pathways. Phylogenetic analysis of putative short and medium chain acyl-CoA synthe…
Density-functional-theory calculations within the generalized-gradient approximation are used to establish the ground-state structure, optimized geometry, and electronic structure for Mg(AlH4)2 and Mg(BH4)2. Among 28 structural arrangements used as inputs for structural optimization calculations, the experimentally kn…
We report that kink motion is a universal plastic deformation mode in all carbon nanotubes when being tensile loaded at high temperatures. The kink motion, observed inside a high-resolution transmission electron microscope, is reminiscent of dislocation motion in crystalline materials: namely, it dissociates and multi…
Chemical vapor deposited diamond films grown on strained gallium nitride-coated quartz substrate are found to display a dominantly hexagonal diamond phase. The phase identification is done using Raman spectroscopy and orientation imaging microscopy (OIM). The presence of a 1324.4cm−1 band in the Raman spectra is attri…
