The design of metamaterials, which are artificial materials that can offer unique electromagnetic properties, is based on the excitation of strong resonant modes. Unfortunately, material absorption—mainly due to their ...

This study reports the performances of a single structured light-emitting diode (LED) devices based on polymer material poly(9,9-di- n -hexylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl) (PHF) mixed with various concentrations of perovskite oxide...

Raw TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared using the hydroly‐ sis of TiCl4. The nanoparticles were subjected to a surface treatment in diluted sulphuric acid and, subsequently, calcined at different temperatures. Then, a typ...

What makes three dimensional semiconductor quantum nanostructures so attractive is the possibility to tune their electronic properties by careful design of their size and composition. These parameters set the confinement...

A reminder, a review and a look toward the future pros‐ pects for quantum dot-sensitized solar cells — a reminder of the highly viable, energy-efficient solar cells achievable; a review of ground-breaking devices and...

Sensor array with pattern recognition method is often used for gas detection and classification. Processing time and accuracy have become matters of widespread concern in using data analysis with semiconductor gas sensor...

The influence of Au nanorods coated with a silica layer on the photoluminescence (PL) of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) was investigated. The Au nanorods were prepared using a seed-mediated method. They were coated with a silic...

ABSTRACT This is the protocol for a Campbell scoping review. The objectives are as follows: (i) To define and characterize the food environment of pastoralists in Africa; (ii) To identify the domains of the food environm...

In this paper we present a rapid and simple onepot method to obtain gold nanoparticles functionalized with folic acid using a photochemistry method. The bioconjugate folic acid-gold nanoparticle was generated in one step...

Micro-capillaries with an engineered hidden surface were produced via the self-rolling of polymer thin films whose surface was photochemically modified so as to coat it with silver nanoparticles. The polymer films consis...

A series of well-crystallized praseodymium oxide (Pr6O11) nanoparticles are synthesized via a highly scalable process from praseodymium nitrate. Praseodymium hydroxide is synthesized through a modified polyol process and...

Abstract This is the protocol for a Campbell systematic review. The objectives are as follows. The objective of this review is to identify and synthesize empirical research on the impacts of interest‐holder engagement ...

ABSTRACT The explosion of scientific literature has made the efficient and accurate extraction of structured data a critical component for advancing scientific knowledge and supporting evidence‐based decision‐making....

A fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)- based aptamer biosensor (aptasensor) for sensitive determination of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was developed. The energy donor and acceptor were 5′-carboxyfluorescein ...

Amyloids constitute a class of protein and protein fragments believed to be involved in the pathologies associated with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Creutzfeldt‐ Jakob diseases. These proteins can self‐assemble i...

Nitrogen-doped carbon nanocoils (CNCs) with adjusted morphologies were synthesized in a one-step catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CVD) process using acetoni‐ trile as the carbon and nitrogen source. The nickel iro...

One‐dimensional nanostructures of Tin oxide (SnO2) have been synthesized by thermal evaporation method with and with out a catalyst on silicon substrate. The nanostructure growth was carried out by using a mixture ...

Abstract Background Depression is a public health problem and common amongst adolescents. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is widely used to treat adolescent depression but existing research does not provide clear con...

In the present work, the synergistic effect of multiwalled carbon nanotubes and glycidyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes on the compression after impact behaviour of multifunctional carbon fibre–reinforced epoxy ...

The catalytic conversion of palm oil was carried out over four zeolite catalysts—Y, ZSM-5, Y-ZSM-5 hybrid, and Y/ZSM-5 composite—to produce jet biofuel with high amount of alkanes and low amount of aromatic hydrocarb...

In this article, we report modeling, simulation, and analysis of shifting 2D photonic crystal cavity side holes in GaN-AlN-sapphire layered structure. The design was simulated with Lumerical finite-difference time-domain...

ABSTRACT Background: Climate change and widespread environmental degradation have increased the risk of natural hazards in recent decades. Hydrological, meteorological, and climatological disasters have become more frequ...

Abstract Background Frailty, social isolation, loneliness, and poverty may render older adults vulnerable to social or health stressors. It is imperative to identify effective interventions to address them especially in ...

This Campbell systematic review synthesizes the existing published and non‐published empirical evidence on the effects of focused police crime prevention interventions at high‐activity crime places and will provide a...
