A Water‐Based Synthesis of Octahedral, Decahedral, and Icosahedral Pd Nanocrystals
TL;DR: This work reports on a water-based system for the facile synthesis of Pd nanocrystals with various shapes by reducing a Pd precursor with citric acid, and demonstrates that citric Acid favors the formation of a structure such as an octahedron, icosahedrons, or decahedrons whose surface is covered by {111} planes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanomaterials at work in biomedical research.
TL;DR: With some nanomaterial-based medicines having entered the marketplace, and more on the verge of doing so, nanomedicine is expected to become an exciting playground for chemists and material scientists.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrospun Nanofibers of Blends of Conjugated Polymers: Morphology, Optical Properties, and Field-Effect Transistors
TL;DR: In this article, two series of binary blends of poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexoxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MEH−PPV) with regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (PHT) and with poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene)(PFO) were prepared, and their morphology and optical and electrical properties were characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pt-Based Icosahedral Nanocages: Using a Combination of {111} Facets, Twin Defects, and Ultrathin Walls to Greatly Enhance Their Activity toward Oxygen Reduction
Xue Wang,Xue Wang,Legna Figueroa-Cosme,Xuan Yang,Ming Luo,Jingyue Liu,Zhaoxiong Xie,Younan Xia,Younan Xia +8 more
TL;DR: The synthesis of Pt-based icosahedral nanocages whose surface is enclosed by both {111} facets and twin boundaries while the wall thickness can be made as thin as six atomic layers is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective Deposition of Conducting Polymers on Hydroxyl-Terminated Surfaces with Printed Monolayers of Alkylsiloxanes as Templates
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of patterned self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) in area-selective deposition of conducting polymers (polypyrrole and polyaniline) on insulating, hydroxyl-terminated surfaces such as Si/SiO2 and glass was described.
