Mediated Growth of Zinc Chalcogen Shells on Gold Nanoparticles by Free-Base Amino Acids

TL;DR: In this article, a method that uses free base amino acids to mediate the controlled hydrothermal growth of amorphous zinc oxide (a-ZnO) or nanocrystalline zinc sulfide (c -ZnS) shells on gold nanoparticles was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extraordinary focusing of sound above a soda can array without time reversal

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the locally resonant metamaterial formed by soda cans supports a guided wave at frequencies below the Helmholtz resonance frequency, and the small focal spot results from a small wavelength of this guided wave near the resonance in combination with a near field effect making the acoustic field concentrate at the opening of a can.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioinspired hydrogel jellyfish with mechanical flexibility and acoustic transparency

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors reported a hydraulically actuated bioinspired hydrogel jellyfish, which achieved omnidirectional transparency under broadband acoustic detection from 10 kHz to 1 MHz.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploiting transport of guest metal ions in a host ionic crystal lattice for nanofabrication: Cu nanopatterning with Ag2S

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the possibility of using the solid ionic conductor Ag2S for the fabrication of sub-100nnm features in a Cu film and evaluate the physical properties of the Cu-Ag2S interface through an electroimpedance spectroscopy study.
