Reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are expressed at high levels in many diseases, can be scavenged by cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2NPs). CeO2NPs can cause significant cytotoxicity when administered directly to cells, but this…
While most of the experimental studies are dealing with partially oxidized metallic nanosolids, their behaviour is not well understood theoretically. To this end we utilized molecular dynamics simulation and charge-optimized many-body…
Recently, the hydrogen adsorption and diffusion on the CeO2 (111) surface have been a vividly discussed topic because of its outstanding catalytic activity and selectivity in hydrogenation reactions. However, for the strongly reduced CeO2…
Intrinsic properties of a compound (e.g., electronic structure, crystallographic structure, optical and magnetic properties) define notably its chemical and physical behavior. In the case of nanomaterials, these fundamental properties…
Due to the drastically different intralayer versus interlayer bonding strengths, the mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials are highly anisotropic between the in-plane and out-of-plane directions.…
