Oxide-based inorganic/organic and nanoporous spherical particles: synthesis and functional properties
TLDR
This paper reviews the recent progress in the preparation of oxide-based and heteroatom-doped particles, which are functionalized with organic molecules or doped with heteroatoms, the physicochemical properties of the particles and the possibilities for their photofunctional applications as complex systems.About:

Electrokinetic Effects in Catalytic Pt-Insulator Janus Swimmers
Stephen J. Ebbens,David A. Gregory,Gary J. Dunderdale,Jonathan R. Howse,Yahaya Ibrahim,Tanniemola B. Liverpool,Ramin Golestanian +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of added salt on the propulsion of Janus platinum-polystyrene colloids in hydrogen peroxide solution is studied experimentally, and it is argued that the seemingly paradoxical experimental observations could be theoretically explained by using a generalised reaction scheme that involves charged intermediates and has the topology of two nested loops.

Recent developments and challenges of nanopositioning and nanomeasuring technology
TL;DR: In this article, a range of nanoprobe systems usable in nanomeasuring machines is discussed, such as optical focus sensors, white light interferometer microscopes, CCD camera microscopes using the depth from the focus method, tactile stylus probes, atomic force microscopes (AFMs) and 3D microprobes.

Enhanced photoelectrochemical water-splitting effect with a bent ZnO nanorod photoanode decorated with Ag nanoparticles
TL;DR: The overall PEC performance improvement is attributed to the plasmonic effects induced by Ag film and improved charge transport due to inhibition of ZnO surface charge recombination, which improved the overall efficiency.
