In this study, a manganese(IV) oxide-mediator (MnO2-mediator) system for the abatement of sulfonamide antibiotics was evaluated. Two simple model humic constituents, syringaldehyde (SA) and acetosyringone (AS), could promote the transformation of sulfonami ...
The effect of single amino acid mutations on the rebinding dynamics of nitrogen monoxide (NO) to myoglobin is investigated using reactive molecular dynamics simulations. In particular, mutations of residues surrounding the heme-active site (Leu29, His64, V ...
A tin dioxide (SnO2) sensor was fabricated by inkjet printing onto polyimide foil. Gold electrodes and heater were printed on each side of the substrate. A SnO2 based ink was developed by sol-gel method and jetted onto the electrodes. A final annealing at ...
Recent progress in the fabrication and performance of 1.3-mu m 10-Gb/s, low power consumption wafer-fused VCSELs grown by MOVPE under nitrogen atmosphere are presented and discussed. By optimization of the growth conditions and implementation of a cavity a ...
This thesis studies carbon nanotubes using state-of-the-art computational methods. Using large-scale quantum-mechanical calculations, based on density-functional-theory, we investigate several important aspects of the physics and chemistry of single-walled ...
