The structure of spherical micelles of the diblock copolymer poly(styrene-block-acrylic acid) in water was investigated with small angle neutron scattering (SANS) and contrast matching. We have monitored inter-micelle correlation and the…
Low-symmetry two-dimensional (2D) topological materials such as MoTe$_2$ host efficient charge-to-spin conversion (CSC) mechanisms that can be harnessed for novel electronic and spintronic devices. However, the nature of the various CSC…
Self-assembling peptides (SAPs) have shown to offer great promise in therapeutics and have the ability to undergo self-assembly and form ordered nanostructures. However SAP gels are often associated with inherent weak and transient…
The nonocomposites on the base of long (5-10 $\mu$m, ${o}$-MWCNTs) and short (2 $\mu$m, ${m}$-MWCNTs) multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) hosted by nematic 5CB were investigated in details by means of polarizing microscopy, studies of…
Compact layers containing embedded semiconductor particles consolidated using pulsed electric current sintering exhibit intense, broadband near-infrared reflectance. The composites consolidated from nano- or micro-silica powder have a…
Adsorption of acetylene on Si(100) is studied from first principles. We find that, among a number of possible adsorption configurations, the lowest-energy structure is a ``bridge'' configuration, where the C$_2$H$_2$ molecule is bonded to…
Self-assembling peptides (SAPs) have the ability to spontaneously assemble into ordered nanostructures enabling the manufacture of "designer" nanomaterials. The reversible molecular association of SAPs has been shown to offer great promise…
We have studied the electronic properties, in relation to their structural properties, of monolayers of 1-octadecene attached on a hydrogen-terminated (111) silicon surface. The molecules are attached using the free-radical reaction between…
Plexcitonic assemblies are hybrid materials composed of a plasmonic nanoparticle and molecular or semiconducting emitters whose electronic transitions are strongly coupled to the plasmonic mode. This coupling hybridizes the system modes…
We investigate the adsorption of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) molecules on a thin layer of cobalt oxide grown on Ir(100). To that end we compare the results of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with those of ab-initio…
The structures and energetics of organic molecules adsorbed onto clean and H-passivated Si(001)-(2$\times$1) surfaces have been calculated using density functional theory. For benzene adsorbed on the clean Si surface the tight-bridge…
The effect of different ionic cosolutes (NaCl, Na$_2$SO$_4$, Li$_2$SO$_4$, NaSCN, Na$_2$[Fe(CN)5NO], and Na$_3$[Co(NO)$_6$]) on the interaction between sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) was examined by small-angle…
We report on the integration of monolayer molybdenum disulphide with silicon nitride microresonators assembled by visco-elastic layer transfer techniques. Evanescent coupling from the resonator mode to the monolayer is confirmed through…
We study the effect of the presence of a regular substrate pattern on the irreversible adsorption of nanosized and colloid particles. Deposition of disks of radius $r_0$ is considered, with the allowed regions for their center attachment at…
We present new multielement NanoSIMS isotopic measurements (C, N, Si, Mg-Al, Ti, and Ni) for four putative nova SiC grains and 79 AB SiC grains from the Murchison meteorite to reassess their stellar origins. High-resolution imaging and a…
The incorporation of nanosilica in cementitious systems helps in accelerating the cement hydration process and early-stage formation of the main hydration product, that is, calcium silicate hydrate. Nanosilica reacts with the other key…
The recent experimental synthesis of 2D graphitic C3N5 has attracted lot of interests in its electronic and optical properties and its comparison with other graphitic C3N4 and C3N3. To this end, we performed DFT calculations using more…
The results of a study that helps understand the mechanisms of adsorption of polyelectrolytes on particles, using numerical simulation methods, specifically the one known as dissipative particle dynamics are reported here. The adsorption of…
Even after more than four decades of rapid-pace advances, the adoption of Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) remains limited, due to the difficulties in fabrication of effective and affordable nanostructured surfaces or templates.…
In this paper we study the main surface characteristics which control the foamability of solutions of various surfactants. Experiments with anionic, cationic and nonionic surfactants with different head groups and chain lengths are…
