Chemically uracil-functionalized carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes: computational studies
(Elsevier, 2018)Chemical additions of uracil (U) nucleobase to sidewall of each of representative (4,4) armchair carbon and silicon carbide nanotubes (CNT and SiCNT) were investigated based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations. ... -
DFT studies of CNT-functionalized uracil-acetate hybrids
(Elsevier, 2015)Calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) have been performed to investigate the stabilities and properties of hybrid structures consisting of a molecular carbon nanotube (CNT) and uracil acetate (UA) counterparts. ... -
Dielectrophoresis in microfluidics technology
(2011)Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is the movement of a particle in a non-uniform electric field due to the interaction of the particle's dipole and spatial gradient of the electric field. DEP is a subtle solution to manipulate ... -
Growth of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes over self-ordered nano-porous alumina films and their surface properties
(Elsevier, 2012)Nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) with self-organized arrays of uniform nanopores have been used for various applications in the fields of sensing, storage, separation and template-based fabrication of metal nanowires, ... -
High conducting nanowires obtained from uniform titanium covered carbon nanotubes
(2005)We have shown that Ti atoms can form continuous coating of carbon nanotubes at different amount of coverage. The circular cross section changes to a square-like form, and the semiconducting tube becomes ferromagnetic metal ... -
A new tool for differentiating hepatocellular cancer cells: patterned carbon nanotube arrays
(Elsevier, 2015)We aimed to develop a new approach to detect the invasiveness and metastatic degree of hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HCC) based on their epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) status by using patterned carbon nanotubes ... -
Non-covalent functionalized SWNTs as delivery agents for novel Bodipy-based potential PDT sensitizers
(2009)Pyrenyl-functionalized distyryl-Bodipy sensitizer attached non-covalently to SWNTs was shown to generate singlet oxygen when excited at 660 nm with a red LED array; this work emphasizes the potential of SWNT as a viable ... -
Persistent currents in helical structures
(American Physical Society, 2004)The recent discovery of mesoscopic electronic structures, in particular the carbon nanotubes, made necessary an investigation of what effect a helical symmetry of the conductor (metal or semiconductor) may have on the ... -
Recent advances in bioactive 1D and 2D carbon nanomaterials for biomedical applications
(Elsevier, 2018)One-dimensional (1D) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the two-dimensional (2D) graphene represent the most widely studied allotropes of carbon. Due to their unique structural, electrical, mechanical and optical properties, 1D ... -
Theoretical study of Ga-based nanowires and the interaction of Ga with single-wall carbon nanotubes
(American Physical Society, 2004)Gallium displays physical properties which can make it a potential element to produce metallic nanowires and high-conducting interconnects in nanoelectronics. Using first-principles pseudopotential plane method we showed ...
