The Kirkendall effect is a consequence of the different diffusivities of atoms in a diffusion
couple causing a supersaturation of lattice vacancies. This supersaturation may lead to a …

We have proposed in 1992 that nanoparticles of layered compounds will be unstable
against folding and close into fullerene-like structures and nanotubes (IF). Nanotubes and …

There is a deep interest in methods to fabricate hollow nanocrystals for potential application
as high-efficiency catalysts or drug-delivery agents. Tubular one-dimensional nanocrystals …

The crystal structures of uranyl minerals and inorganic uranyl compounds are important for
understanding the genesis of U deposits, the interaction of U mine and mill tailings with the …

Over the past four decades, the number of inorganic oxide and oxy-salt phases containing
stoichiometric quantities of hexavalent uranium has increased exponentially from a few …

Many forward‐looking clean‐energy technologies hinge on the development of scalable
and efficient membrane‐based separations. Ongoing investment in the basic research of …

The radioecological relevance of actinide particles 1 did not first become a matter of concern
following the nuclear accidents at Fukushima, Chernobyl, or Three Mile Island. Public and …

The intent of this Dalton Perspective is to highlight the recent advances in uranium
molecular chemistry, with the results reported during the 2000–2006 period. This discipline …

An overview is given of recent structural studies on heterometallic uranyl-containing species,
with particular emphasis on those formed with carboxylate ligands, showing the effect of the …

Crystalline nanotube array would create great opportunity for novel electrical application.
Herein we report the first example of a metal halide based crystalline nanotube array which …
