We describe the use of sulfonate-terminated self-assembled monolayers as very efficient surface-confined nucleation agents for rapid growth of dense, thick and well-percolated ZIF-8 films. Fil: Tuninetti, Jimena Soledad....

Several forms of niobium oxide were prepared, including nanostructured mesoporous materials, and their acidity properties were comprehensively investigated and compared with commercially available materials. The composit...

We report the synthesis, structural characterization, and atomistic simulations of AgPd-Pt trimetallic (TM) nanoparticles. Two types of structure were synthesized using a relatively facile chemical method: multiply twinn...

Metallic lithium plays an important role in the development of next-generation lithium metal-based batteries. However, the uncontrolled growth of lithium dendrites limits the use of lithium metal as an anode. In this con...

Accelerated molecular dynamics and quantum conductance calculations are employed to shed light onto the electrochemical properties of the Au|1,8-octanedithiol|Au junction. Widely different contact geometries with varying...

Antimicrobial finishings protect users from pathogenic and odor-generating microorganisms, which are of medical and hygiene concerns. Controlled release is a useful approach to obtain antimicrobial finishings in several ...

We investigate the down-hill creep of a layer of granular material on a slope caused by an oscillatory variation of the size of the particles. The material is modeled as an athermal two dimensional polydisperse system of...

We present a study of the microscopic dynamics of water trapped in reverse non-ionic micelles by means of a series of molecular dynamics simulations. The analysis of the effects of micellar confinement on spectroscopical...

Metal-organic coordination networks self-assembled on surfaces have emerged as functional low-dimensional architectures with potential applications ranging from the fabrication of functional nanodevices to electrocatalys...

Synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments at various temperatures, down to 3 K, along with ab initio calculations, are carried out to elucidate the magnetic order of layered β-cobalt-hydroxide. This combinat...

This work presents a theoretical investigation of carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption on MgH2 and its reaction (chemisorption) with cobalt doped MgH2. The focus of this study is the properties and mechanisms involved in CO2 ...
