Journal ArticleDOI

Lowest Energy States of Small Pd Clusters Using Density Functional Theory and Standard ab initio Methods. A Route to Understanding Metallic Nanoprobes

TL;DR: In this paper, Ab initio and density functional theory calculations were performed on small Pd clusters to assess their precise energy level characteristics, and the ground states of Pd and Pd 3 were found to be singlets, while Pd2 and pd4 were triplets.
Patent

Hybrid molecular electronic devices containing molecule-functionalized surfaces for switching, memory, and sensor applications and methods for fabricating same

TL;DR: In this article, a method of making a molecule-surface interface comprising at least one surface comprising one material and one organic group where the organic group is adjoined to the surface is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tunable Hybridized Morphologies Obtained through Flash Joule Heating of Carbon Nanotubes.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors demonstrate the solvent and gas-free synthesis of a 2D carbon nanotube/graphene network through flash Joule heating of pristine carbon notubes.
Patent

Antibiofilm and antimicrobial functional membrane spacer

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for combating biofouling in a liquid by providing a surface coated with at least one laser-induced graphene (LIG) layer in said liquid medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioactive Polypyrrole Thin Films with Conductimetric Response to Analyte

TL;DR: In this paper, thin films of electroconductive poly[pyrrole-co-3−(1−pyrrolyl)propionic acid] were prepared by electropolymerization onto 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane modified and 3-poly(1)-poly(poly(n)-propionic acids derivatized interdigitated microsensor electrode (IME) arrays.
