BACKGROUND: A new method was established to characterize the binding kinetics of DNA toward layered double hydroxides (LDHs). The setup consisted of a newly developed sampling tube that allows the injection of analyte during the flow cytometric measurement. METHODS: Layered double hydroxides consist of cationic metal…
Scanning tunneling microscopy is used to investigate the appearance of nanoscale islands on the SrTiO3(001) surface following cycles of repetitive annealing. Atomic-resolution images reveal that the surface of the islands is covered by features typical of the anatase TiO2(001) surface reconstruction. Small islands dis…
We consider a d -dimensional crystal with an arbitrary harmonic interaction and an anharmonic on-site potential, with a stochastic Langevin heat bath at each site. We develop an integral formalism for the correlation functions that is suitable for the study of their relaxation (time decay) as well as their behavior in…
Some smectic liquid crystals exhibit a series of phases, including ferroelectric, antiferroelectric, and ferrielectric commensurate structures as well as an incommensurate phase. A long-standing problem has been to understand the origin of the long-range interaction responsible for this rich variety of phases. We stud…
We present calculations for the supercooling of a thermoelectric material during a transient current pulse. At room temperature, a standard steady-state cooler produces a maximum temperature drop of 82 K. During a current pulse, this value can be increase to about 108 K. While prior calculations focused on the optimiz…
Ferroelectric (Pb,Sr)TiO3 (PSTO) thin films were epitaxially grown on (001) LaAlO3 (LAO) by using pulsed laser deposition. Microstructural characterizations with x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy indicate that the as-grown films have excellent single crystalline quality and a (001)PSTO∕∕(001)LAO a…
The positioning and directed assembly of semiconductor nanowires (NWs) is of considerable current interest for “bottom-up” approaches to the engineering of intricate structures from nanoscale building blocks. We report a horizontal growth mode for ZnO NWs on the (112¯0) sapphire surface in which NWs grow in the [11¯00…
O K -, ZnL3, and K-edges x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra and scanning photoelectron microscopy (SPEM) spectra were obtained for ZnO nanorods with various diameters. The analysis of the XANES spectra revealed increased numbers of O2p and Zn4p unoccupied states with the downsizing of the nanorods, w…
High-density and high-quality CdS nanoribbons were synthesized by a thermal evaporation process. The nanoribbons were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. CdS nanoribbons were found to be single crystals of high phase pu…
Abstract Summary: Three rubber‐based nanocomposites, natural rubber (NR), styrene‐butadiene rubber (SBR), and ethylene‐propylene‐diene rubber (EPDM) matrixes, were prepared with octadecylamine modified fluorohectorite (OC) by melt blending. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) revealed that the SBR/OC and EPDM/OC nanocomposites ex…
Abstract Summary: The cold crystallization process of initially amorphous poly( L ‐lactic acid), PLLA, with two different molecular weights, during a heating at 2 °C/min, was investigated by DSC and time‐resolved simultaneous SAXS and WAXS, using synchrotron radiation. Equatorial scans of the isotropic 2D‐SAXS pattern…
Pt Schottky diodes were formed on single ZnO nanowires grown by site-selective molecular-beam epitaxy and then transferred to SiO2-coated Si substrates. The diodes exhibit excellent ideality factors of 1.1 at 25 °C and very low (1.5×10−10A, equivalent to 2.35Acm−2, at −10V) reverse currents. The nanowire diodes show a…
Abstract Zinc oxide due to specific electrical, optical and acoustic properties is the important semiconductor material, which has many various applications. There is growing interest in ZnO due to its potential applicability for optoelectronic devices such as light‐emitting diodes, laser diodes and detectors for UV w…
Heterogeneous sonochemical method was applied for synthesis of novel superconducting nanocomposites consisting of magnetic (and/or nonmagnetic) nanoparticles embedded into the bulk of ceramic superconductors. In addition to in-situ production of the efficient pinning centers, this synthesis method considerably improve…
This paper reviews the usual techniques for producing YBCO-type single-domains and the microstructure of the as-obtained samples. The problems of seed dissolution and parasite nucleations are discussed in details. Formation of microstructural defects, such as pores and cracks, are examined. An important part of this r…
For two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet we present an analysis of topological coreless excitations having a stripe form. These textures are characterized by singularities at boundaries. A detailed classification of the stripe textures results in a certain analogy with the coreless excitations in $^3He-A$ phase:…
Zinc sulfide is a wide bandgap semiconductor which crystallizes in either the wurtzite modification (a-ZnS), the zincblende modification (b-ZnS) or as one of several similar tetrahedrally coordinated polytypes. In this work, we report a photoluminescence study of different samples of isotopically pure b-ZnS crystals,…
We explain the experimental data on the magnetization of $LaRhIn_5$ recently published by R. G. Goodrich et al. in Phys. Rev.Lett. {\bf 89}, 026401 (2002). We show that the magnetization of a small electron group associated with a band-contact line was detected in that paper. These data provide the first observation o…
We report the synthesis of MnO2−δ microspheres using hydrothermal and conventional chemical reaction methods. The microspheres of MnO2−δ consist of nanowires having a diameter of 20–50nm and a length of 2–8μm. The value of oxygen vacancy δ estimated from x-ray photoelectron spectrum is 0.3. The magnetization versus te…
Abstract Summary: We investigated microcapsules composed of the weak polyelectrolytes poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) assembled on calcium carbonate cores. These capsules are stable in the pH range from 2.5 to 11.5, undergoing reversible swelling in the pH interval from 2.7 to 2.6…
