Journal ArticleDOI
Nanosized hydroxyapatite and other calcium phosphates: chemistry of formation and application as drug and gene delivery agents.
Vuk Uskoković,Dragan Uskoković +1 more
TL;DR: Calcium phosphate nanoparticles as carriers of therapeutic agents that would enable a controlled drug release to treat a given bone infection and at the same be resorbed in the body so as to regenerate hard tissue lost to disease are emphasized as one of the potentially attractive smart materials for the modern medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single and tandem axial p-i-n nanowire photovoltaic devices.
TL;DR: Current-voltage characteristics reveal clear and reproducible diode characteristics for the p-i-n and p-n SiNW devices and a novel single SiNW tandem solar cell consisting of synthetic integration of two photovoltaic elements with an overall p- i-n(+) -p(+)-i-N structure was prepared and shown to exhibit a Voc that is on average 57% larger than that of the single p-o-n device.

Synthesis and applications of one-dimensional semiconductors
Sven Barth,Sven Barth,Francisco Hernandez-Ramirez,Justin D. Holmes,Justin D. Holmes,Albert Romano-Rodriguez +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of synthetic approaches for growing high aspect-ratio semiconductors from bottom-up techniques, such as crystal structure governed nucleation, metal-promoted vapour phase and solution growth, formation in non-metal seeded gas-phase processes, structure directing templates and electrospinning, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanowire‐Based Electrochemical Biosensors
TL;DR: In this article, the advantages and disadvantages of various fabrication, functionalization, and assembling procedures of these nanosensors are reviewed and discussed, and some of the challenges researchers face in the 1-D nanostructures research arena are highlighted.

Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of dislocations on crystal growth
TL;DR: In fact, the existence of a critical finite supersaturation for further growth has only been established for a few materials, and then for individual faces of individual crystals, being different from case to case as discussed by the authors.

Epitaxial Silicon Films by the Hydrogen Reduction of SiCl4
TL;DR: In this article, the basic chemistry and reaction kinetics pertinent to the growth of these films are discussed in detail in detail, including the hydrogen reduction of silicon tetrachloride appropriately doped with or.
