TL;DR: The high electrocatalytic activity and good stability for dioxygen reduction make the PtNP-containing multilayer films potential candidates for the efficient cathode material in fuel cells.
Abstract: Through electrostatic layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly, negatively charged citrate-stabilized platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) and positively charged [tetrakis(N-methylpyridyl)porphyrinato] cobalt were alternately deposited on a 4-aminobenzoic acid-modified glassy carbon electrode and also on indium tin oxide substrates, directly forming the three-dimensional nanostructured materials. Thus-prepared multilayer films were characterized by UV−visible spectroscopy, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and cyclic voltammetry. Regular growth of the multilayer films is monitored by UV−visible spectroscopy and SPR spectroscopy. AFM provides the morphology of the multilayer films. The PtNPs containing multilayer films exhibit high electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of dioxygen with high stability. Rotating disk electrode voltammetry and rotating ring−disk electrode voltammetry demonstrate that the PtNP-containing multilayer films can catalyze an almost four-electron redu...

TL;DR: Design parameters of spacing/wavelength and length/spacing fitted into a finite difference time domain model could simulate the experimental reflectance values observed in real silicon and germanium or in model silica and indium tin oxide nanotip arrays.
Abstract: Natural nanostructures in low refractive index Cicada wings demonstrate ≤1% reflectance over the visible spectrum. We provide design parameters for Cicada-wing-inspired nanotip arrays as efficient light harvesters over a 300–1000 nm spectrum and up to 60° angle of incidence in both low-index, such as silica and indium tin oxide, and high-index, such as silicon and germanium, photovoltaic materials. Biomimicry of the Cicada wing design, demonstrating gradient index, onto these material surfaces, either by real electron cyclotron resonance microwave plasma processing or by modeling, was carried out to achieve a target reflectance of ∼1%. Design parameters of spacing/wavelength and length/spacing fitted into a finite difference time domain model could simulate the experimental reflectance values observed in real silicon and germanium or in model silica and indium tin oxide nanotip arrays. A theoretical mapping of the length/spacing and spacing/wavelength space over varied refractive index materials predicts ...

TL;DR: Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films with various thicknesses from 170 to 700 nm have been grown onto unheated glass substrates by sputtering from a ceramic target, and subsequently annealed in vacuum at temperatures ranging from 250 to 350 °C as mentioned in this paper.
