A Highly Reactive and Sinter‐Resistant Catalytic System Based on Platinum Nanoparticles Embedded in the Inner Surfaces of CeO2 Hollow Fibers

TL;DR: A simple, template-based procedure is reported for the fabrication of CeO2 hollow fibers with PtNPs embedded in the inner surfaces by a modified microemulsion method, which showed significantly improved catalytic activity and selectivity in water-gas shift over methanation by controlling the thickness of the CeO 2 protective layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radioluminescent gold nanocages with controlled radioactivity for real-time in vivo imaging

TL;DR: Under biological conditions the radioactive Au nanocages were shown to emit light with wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared regions, enabling luminescence imaging of the whole mice in vivo, as well as the organs ex vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase-Change Materials for Controlled Release and Related Applications

TL;DR: The advances over the past 10 years in utilizing PCMs as a versatile platform for the encapsulation and release of various types of therapeutic agents and biological effectors are highlighted and a range of applications enabled by the controlled release system based on PCMs are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering: Comparison of Three Different Molecules on Single-Crystal Nanocubes and Nanospheres of Silver†

TL;DR: Through analysis of SERS bands, it is concluded that sharp features on the Ag nanocubes could greatly increase the contribution of the chemical enhancement to the SERS intensity.
