Polymer-based electrospun nanofibers for biomedical applications
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article Review)
Electrospinning has been considered a promising and novel procedure to fabricate polymer nanofibers due to its simplicity, cost effectiveness, and high production rate, making this technique highly relevant for both industry ...
Revealing microstructure and dislocation behavior in BAlN/AlGaN heterostructures
(
Japan Society of Applied Physics
, 2018 , Article)
We reveal the microstructure and dislocation behavior in 20-pair B0.14Al0.86N/Al0.70Ga0.30N multiple-stack heterostructures (MSHs) exhibiting an increasing dislocation density along the c-axis, which is attributed to the ...
Stretchable quaternary phasic PVDF-HFP nanocomposite films containing graphene-titania-SrTiO3 for mechanical energy harvesting
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article)
Integrating efficient energy harvesting materials in to soft, flexible, and eco-friendly substrates could yield significant breakthroughs in wearable and flexible electronics. Substantial advances are emerged in fabricating ...
Thermal properties of TiO 2 NP/CNT/LDPE hybrid nanocomposite films
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
This work aims to investigate the effect of hybrid filler concentration on the thermal stability of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) matrices. LDPE-based composite films were synthesized by melt mixing, followed by compression ...
Investigation on the effect of γ-irradiation on the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of stretchable PVDF/Fe–ZnO nanocomposites for self-powering devices
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2018 , Article)
Stretchable films of PVDF nanocomposites containing iron doped ZnO (Fe-ZnO) nanoflowers are fabricated following simple solution mixing and ?-irradiation treatment. An increase in ?-phase crystallinity is noticed for the ...
Structure, nanomechanics, and dynamics of dispersed surfactant-free clay nanocomposite films
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
The current work presents a new approach to achieve high quality dispersion of surfactant-free nanoclay tactoid particles in sub-micron thin films despite the absence of organic modifier. Natural Montmorillonite particles, ...
Spatial Isolation of Carbon and Silica in a Single Janus Mesoporous Nanoparticle with Tunable Amphiphilicity
(
American Chemical Society
, 2018 , Article)
Like surfactants with tunable hydrocarbon chain length, Janus nanoparticles also possess the ability to stabilize emulsions. The volume ratio between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains in a single Janus nanoparticle ...
Uniform Ordered Two-Dimensional Mesoporous TiO2 Nanosheets from Hydrothermal-Induced Solvent-Confined Monomicelle Assembly
(
American Chemical Society
, 2018 , Article)
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have been the focus of substantial research interest recently owing to their fascinating and excellent properties. However, 2D porous materials have remained quite rare due to the difficulty ...
High strength, ductility, and electrical conductivity of in-situ consolidated nanocrystalline Cu-1%Nb
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Nanocrystalline metals—with grain sizes less than 100 nm— have strengths exceeding those of coarse-grained and even alloyed metals [1], [2]. A bulk nanocrystalline Cu-1%Nb alloy was synthesized by an in-situ consolidation ...
Telecommunication-wavelength lasing in er-doped gan multiple quantum wells at room temperature
(
OSA - The Optical Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
We report the realization of room-temperature, stimulated-emission in Er-doped-GaN multiple-quantum-wells at the 1.5-µm. Structures were grown by MOCVD and lasing was confirmed by threshold-behaviors of emission-intensity ...
