Electron beam irradiation for the formation of thick Ag film on Ag3PO4
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)
This study demonstrates that the electron beam irradiation of materials, typically used in characterizationmeasurements, could be employed for advanced fabrication, modification, and functionalization ofcomposites. We ...
A novel ozone gas sensor based on one-dimensional (1D) α-Ag2WO4 nanostructures
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-01)
This paper reports on a new ozone gas sensor based on α-Ag2WO4 nanorod-like structures. Electrical resistance measurements proved the efficiency of α-Ag2WO4 nanorods, which rendered good sensitivity even for a low ozone ...
Transition-State Vibrational Analysis and Isotope Effects for COMT-Catalyzed Methyl Transfer
(American Chemical Society, 2020-08-19)
Isotopic partition-function ratios (IPFRs) computed for transition structures (TSs) of the methyl-transfer reaction catalyzed by catechol O-methyltransferase and modeled by hybrid QM/MM methods are analyzed. The ability ...
Understanding the Directed Evolution of De Novo Retro-Aldolases from QM/MM Studies
(American Chemical Society, 2020-05-15)
In an era in which climatic change puts the planet at risk, the study and development of alternative green chemistry which can help and improve our life can play an essential role. In this context, the use of artificial ...
Two-Photon Induced Blue Shift of Core and Shell Optical Transitions in Colloidal CdSe/CdS quasi-type II Quantum Rods
(American Chemical Society, 2013-03)
The spectral dependence of the two-photon absorption in CdSe/CdS core/shell nanocrystal heterorods has been studied via two-photon-induced luminescence excitation spectroscopy. We verified that the two-photon absorption ...
Ag Nanoparticles/α-Ag2WO4 Composite Formed by Electron Beam and Femtosecond Irradiation as Potent Antifungal and Antitumor Agents
(Nature ResearchNature Research (part of Springer Nature), 2019)
The ability to manipulate the structure and function of promising systems via external stimuli is emerging with the development of reconfigurable and programmable multifunctional materials. Increasing antifungal and antitumor ...
One planet: one health. A call to support the initiative on a global science–policy body on chemicals and waste
(SpringerOpen, 2022-03-08)
The chemical pollution crisis severely threatens human and environmental health globally. To tackle this challenge the
establishment of an overarching international science–policy body has recently been suggested. We ...
Structural and electronic analysis of the atomic scale nucleation of Ag on α-Ag2WO4 induced by electron irradiation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-06)
In this work, we utilise a combination of theory, computation and experiments to understand the early events related to the nucleation of Ag filaments on α-Ag2WO4 crystals, which is driven by an accelerated electron beam ...
Shell filling and paramagnetism in few-electron colloidal nanoplatelets
(American Physical Society, 2022-08-05)
Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets are excellent optical emitters, which combine a quasi-2D structure with strong in-plane Coulomb interactions. Here, we go beyond the photoexcitation regime and investigate theoretically ...
An Experimental and Computational Study of β-AgVO3: Optical Properties and Formation of Ag Nanoparticles
(ACS Publications, 2016-05-19)
This article aims to gather together in one place and for first time the formation process of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) on β-AgVO3 crystals, driven by an accelerated electron beam from an electronic microscope under high ...
