Al2O3 Surface Complexation for Photocatalytic Organic Transformations
(2016)
The use of sunlight to drive organic reactions constitutes a green and sustainable strategy for organic synthesis. Herein, we discovered that the earth-abundant aluminum oxide (Al2O3) though paradigmatically known to be ...
Effect of intermolecular dipole−dipole interactions on interfacial supramolecular structures of C3-symmetric hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene derivatives
(2011)
Two-dimensional (2D) supramolecular assemblies of a series of novel C3-symmetric hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) derivatives bearing different substituents adsorbed on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite were studied by ...
Magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of ball milled Nd5Ge3
(2012)
Effect of particle size reduction of the intermetallic compound Nd5Ge3 by ball milling has been studied by investigating the change in the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties. Ball milling is found to enhance the strength ...
Use of Bamboo Powder Waste for Removal of Bisphenol A in Aqueous Solution
(2015)
The scarcity of clean water affecting many parts of the world encourages efforts to improve water reclamation processes, which rely on their capability to remove diverse types of water pollutants and contaminants. Thus, ...
Self-protection of electrochemical storage devices via a thermal reversible sol-gel transition
(2015)
Thermal self-protected intelligent electrochemical storage devices are fabricated using a reversible sol–gel transition of the electrolyte, which can decrease the specific capacitance and increase and enable temperature-dependent ...
Elastic substrates for stretchable devices
(2017)
Stretchable devices, with the capability of retaining their functionalities under stretching, are drawing much attention as a promising solution to address the mechanical mismatch between traditional stiff electronics and ...
Bio-inspired micropatterned hydrogel to direct and deconstruct hierarchical processing of geometry-force signals by human mesenchymal stem cells during smooth muscle cell differentiation
(2015)
Micropatterned biomaterial-based hydrogel platforms allow the recapitulation of in vivo-like microstructural and biochemical features that are critical physiological regulators of stem cell development. Herein, we report ...
Orthogonally modulated molecular transport junctions for resettable electronic logic gates
(2014)
Individual molecules have been demonstrated to exhibit promising applications as functional components in the fabrication of computing nanocircuits. Based on their advantage in chemical tailorability, many molecular devices ...
Colorimetric detection of creatinine based on plasmonic nanoparticles via synergistic coordination chemistry
(2015)
A simple and portable colorimetric assay for creatinine detection is fabricated based on the synergistic coordination of creatinine and uric acid with Hg2+ on the surface of gold nanoparticles, which exhibits good selectivity ...
Rational design of materials interface for efficient capture of circulating tumor cells
(2015)
Originating from primary tumors and penetrating into blood circulation, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play a vital role in understanding the biology of metastasis and have great potential for early cancer diagnosis, ...
