From a dicyano-phenylenevinylene (PV) and an azobenzene (AB) skeleton, two new
symmetrical salen dyes were obtained. Terminal bulky substituents able to reduce …

We calculate the force between two spherical metal nanoparticles of charge Q 1 and Q 2 in a
dilute 1∶ 1 electrolyte solution. Numerically solving the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann …

Nanoparticle (NP)-decorated carbon nanotubes or graphenes (GRPs) have attracted
attention because of their synergic properties such as enhanced electrical conductivity …

Abstract Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a type of transition metal dichalcogenide material,
has emerged as an important class among 2D systems. When 2D MoS2 materials are …

A concept of spin plasmon, a collective mode of spin-density, in strongly correlated electron
systems has been proposed since the 1930s. It is expected to bridge between spintronics …

The needless use of tetracyclines (TCs) in foodstuffs is a huge health concern in low-and
middle-income and Arab countries. Herein, a sensitive and faster monitoring system for …

This approach involves the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) within the carbonizing
photoresist (SU8) to achieve GNPs trapped glassy carbon (GNPs‐GC) substrates. Surface …

Abstract Microcarriers (MCs, typically 50–200 µm) are promising growth supports for high-
throughput cell expansion, with capability to overcome the limitations of surface area …

In order to optimize surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of noble metal
nanostructures for enabling chemical identification of analyte molecules, careful design of …

Smart materials and surfaces with tunable functionalities are of great interest, especially for
intelligent devices. However, achieving high sensitivity, fast response, simple operations …
