Thanks to the ultrahigh flexibility of 2D materials and to their extreme sensitivity to applied strain, there is currently a strong interest in studying and understanding how their electronic properties can be modulated ...

This paper reports on miniaturized hydrogen sensing platforms, exploring several means of fabricating nano‐ structured films and evaluating their sensing characteris‐ tics. Palladium-sputtered nanoporous organosilica...

A simple and effective method for the preparation of platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) grown on amino-func‐ tionalized halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) was developed. The nanostructures were synthesized through the func‐ ti...

Introduction Osteoarthritis is a frequent degenerative joint disease, affecting older individuals in particular. When non-surgical treatment options are no longer effective or warranted, surgical options include single c...

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...

This paper presents a study of adsorption and vibrational features of folic acid, using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). A gold-capped silicon nanopillar (Au NP) with a height of 600 nm and a width of 120 nm was...

In this article, a model-based genetic algorithm is used to determine the optical properties of nanostructured zinc oxide single-sided nano thin films that does not depend on the interference fringes of optical transmiss...

In this investigation, differently shaped and surface functionalized TiO2 anatase nanoparticles and human serum albumin (HSA) were selected to study protein- nanoparticles interaction both in a solution and on flat surfa...

In this study, nano-carbonated hydroxyapatite (n-CHAp) was successfully synthesized with abalone shells ( Halioitis asinina ) as the calcium source using precipitation methods with aging time variations, namely, 0 (witho...

This review deals with different aspects of hydrophobicity at nanostructured surfaces. Theoretical and geometric effects as well as those of surface feature geometry on hydrophobicity are explored in this article. This r...

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...

Low nano-SiO2 loaded nylon 6 (PA6) nanocomposites were readily produced via in situ polymerization. The effect of surface-modified functional groups of nano-SiO2 on the interfacial structure and properties of nylon 6/SiO...

Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNs) find application in nanomedicine as biolabels to identify cancer cells. In this work, Y2O3: Er3+/ Yb3+ and Gd2O3: Er3+/ Yb3+ systems were fabricated by combustion synthesis (CS) and sol-...

Gold nanoparticles have many applications in the biomedical field, mainly for drug delivery, cancer therapy, and detection of pathogenic microorganisms. In this study, gold nanoparticles synthesized using Platycodon gran...
