Journal ArticleDOI
Structural dependence of oxygen reduction reaction on palladium nanocrystals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesized sub-10 nm Pd cubic and octahedral nanocrystals and then evaluated their activities towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and showed that their ORR activity was one order of magnitude higher than that of Pd octahedra, and comparable to that of the state-of-theart Pt catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radially Aligned, Electrospun Nanofibers as Dural Substitutes for Wound Closure and Tissue Regeneration Applications
TL;DR: The fabrication of scaffolds consisting of radially aligned poly(ε-caprolactone) nanofibers by utilizing a collector composed of a central point electrode and a peripheral ring electrode was able to present nanoscale topographic cues to cultured cells, directing and enhancing their migration from the periphery to the center.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of palladium icosahedra with twinned structure by blocking oxidative etching with citric acid or citrate ions
TL;DR: Pd is a face-centered cubic (fcc) noble metal, and Pdnanoparticles may take three different shapes when fastnucleation and growth are involved: truncated cubes oroctahedra, decahedRA, and icosahedra.

TL;DR: Nano Focus as discussed by the authors discusses the current status and future potential of promising nanomaterials and their translation from the laboratory to the clinic, by highlighting a handful of successful examples.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparative Study of Galvanic Replacement Reactions Involving Ag Nanocubes and AuCl2− or AuCl4−
Leslie Au,Xianmao Lu,Younan Xia +2 more
TL;DR: Significantly, when the LSPR peak is tuned into the near-infrared region from 800 to 900 nm (the so-called transparent window of soft tissues), these nanostructures hold great promise for a variety of biomedical applications that may include drug delivery, contrast-enhanced optical imaging, and photothermal therapy.
