Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrothermal evolution of PF-co-doped TiO2 nanoparticles and their antibacterial activity against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
László Kőrösi,Balázs Bognár,Marianna Horváth,György Schneider,János Kovács,Alice Scarpellini,Andrea Castelli,Massimo Colombo,Mirko Prato +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the photocatalytic and antibacterial activities of PF-co-doped anatase TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were studied in details and related to the evolution of their structure and surface composition upon hydrothermal treatment at 250°C for periods up to 12h.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reshaping the phonon energy landscape of nanocrystals inside a terahertz plasmonic nanocavity.
Xin Jin,Andrea Cerea,Andrea Cerea,Gabriele Messina,Andrea Rovere,Riccardo Piccoli,Francesco De Donato,Francisco Palazon,Andrea Perucchi,Paola Di Pietro,Roberto Morandotti,Roberto Morandotti,Stefano Lupi,Francesco De Angelis,Mirko Prato,Andrea Toma,Luca Razzari +16 more
TL;DR: The authors show that the dipole-active phonon resonance of semiconducting nanocrystals can be hybridized by a strongly concentrated terahertz vacuum field of a plasmonic nanocavity, thus achieving strong plasMon–phonon coupling even in the absence of direct teraherstz illumination.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Short-Chain Multibranched Perfluoroalkyl Thiol for More Sustainable Hydrophobic Coatings
Valentina Dichiarante,Maria Isabel Martinez Espinoza,Lara Gazzera,Maja Vuckovac,Mika Latikka,Gabriella Cavallo,Giuseppina Raffaini,Reinier Oropesa-Nuñez,Claudio Canale,Claudio Canale,Silvia Dante,Sergio Marras,Riccardo Carzino,Mirko Prato,Robin H. A. Ras,Pierangelo Metrangolo +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a multibranched fluorinated thiol (BRFT) bearing ultrashort fluorinated alkyl groups, surrounding a hydrocarbon polar core, was used to build omniphobic self-assembled monolayers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-/Few-LayerGraphene as Long-Lasting Electrocatalyst for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction
Leyla Najafi,Sebastiano Bellani,Reinier Oropesa-Nuñez,Beatriz Martín-García,Mirko Prato,Francesco Bonaccorso +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify single/few-layer graphene flakes with defective edges (SLG/FLG-DE), produced by hydrogen peroxide-assisted cosolvent liquid phase exfoliation, as durable and efficient HER electrocatalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical properties of Yeast Cytochrome c monolayer on gold: an in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry investigation.
Chiara Toccafondi,Mirko Prato,Giulia Maidecchi,Amanda Penco,Francesco Bisio,Ornella Cavalleri,Maurizio Canepa +6 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that YCC preserves its native structure upon adsorption, dominated by the spectral features associated to the polypeptide chain that tend to overwhelm the heme absorption features.
