The world needs to think about the after fossil fuel era and while the sun baths the earth with a tremendous amount of energy, man must learn how to harvest and store it in order to dispose of a continuous supply meeting his needs. Water photo-electrolysis ...
Electron crystallography is used to study membrane proteins in the form of planar, two-dimensional (2D) crystals, or other crystalline arrays such as tubular crystals. This method has been used to determine the atomic resolution structures of bacteriorhodo ...
Miniaturized, low temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) that operate below 600 °C are promising for supplying electrical power to portable devices. Thin electrolyte membranes of less than one micrometer thickness have been shown to yield reasonable po ...
Nanocomposite membranes based on polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) of chitosan/phosphotungstic acid (PWA) and different types of montmorillonite (MMT) were prepared as alternative membranes to Nafion for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) applications. Fourier t ...
Low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy has been employed to study the adsorption of (bis(3-phenylthio)-phenyl)sulfane (BPPS) molecules on an aluminum-oxide film grown on NiAl(110). Large variations in the molecular coverage on incompletely oxidized ...
This study aimed at comparing the photocatalytic efficiencies of various TiO2 based photocatalysts for phenol degradation and bacteria inactivation under illumination with visible light. Commercial undoped anatase and rutile (both from Aldrich), Aeroxide P ...
Here we show preparation and characterization of a new type of composite membrane based on Nafion (R)/histidine modified carbon nanotube by imidazole groups (Im-CNT), for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) applications. Due to the presence of this imidazole- ...
Protein misfolding and aggregation in intracellular and extracellular spaces is regarded as a main marker of the presence of degenerative disorders such as amyloidoses. To elucidate the mechanisms of protein misfolding, the interaction of proteins with ino ...
Novel sputtered polyethylene-TiO2 (PE-TiO2) thin films induce fast bacterial inactivation with concomitant photo-switchable hydrophobic to hydrophilic transition under light. RF-plasma pretreatments allowed an increased TiO2 loading on PE, favorably affect ...
Org. ligands (or surfactants) are key in detg. colloidal nanocrystal structure and, therefore, function. In addn. to their more traditional role as surface passivating agents impacting nanocrystal size and shape, surfactants can also behave as active reage ...
