In this work, PtxPd1-x (x = 0, 0.5, and 1) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized on the surface of SiO2@graphene oxide which covered by 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmitn] PF6) ionic liquid (IL) layer. FT-IR spectroscopy, zeta potential ...
We present an implicit solvation approach where the interface-between the quantum-mechanical solute and the surrounding environment is, described by a fully continuous permittivity built up with atomic-centered "soft" spheres. This approach combines many o ...
Protein nanofibrils were first discovered in the context of misfolding and neurodegenerative diseases but have recently been found in naturally occurring functional materials including algal adhesives, bacterial coatings, and even mammalian melanosomes. Th ...
Control of particles/cells and the surrounding fluid is enabling toward the purification of complex cellular samples, which still remains a bottleneck for point-of-care diagnostic devices. We explore a newly developed approach to engineer fluid stream moti ...
The water-soluble ruthenium(II)–mTPPTS complex (mTPPTS= meta-trisulfonated triphenylphosphine) efficiently catalyzes the generation of hydrogen from formic acid in aqueous solution. This catalyst has been immobilized in a hydrophilic silica sup- port to fa ...
