Journal ArticleDOI

Coaxial electrospinning of microfibres with liquid crystal in the core

TL;DR: Liquid crystal containing composite fibres were produced via coaxial electrospinning, demonstrating that this technique can be used for producing new functional fibres and/or to study the impact of extreme confinement on liquid crystal phases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controlling the Surface Oxidation of Cu Nanowires Improves Their Catalytic Selectivity and Stability toward C 2+ Products in CO 2 Reduction.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that controlling the surface oxidation of Cu nanowires (CuNWs) can greatly improve their C2+ selectivity and stability, and the formation of a relatively thick, smooth oxide sheath can improve the catalytic stability by mitigating the fragmentation issue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photolithography with transparent reflective photomasks

TL;DR: In this article, a new type of photomask was fabricated by casting a prepolymer of a transparent, elastomeric polymer (polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS) against a Si(100) master whose surface has been patterned with V-shaped trenches or pyramidal pits using anisotropic etching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gold nanocages as contrast agents for photoacoustic imaging

TL;DR: This review discusses the application of gold nanocages as a new class of contrast agents for PA imaging in the context of cancer diagnosis.
