Bias in bonding behavior among boron, carbon, and nitrogen atoms in ion implanted a-BN, a-BC, and diamond like carbon films
(2011)In this study, we implanted Nþ and Nþ 2 ions into sputter deposited amorphous boron carbide (a-BC) and diamond like carbon (DLC) thin films in an effort to understand the chemical bonding involved and investigate possible ... -
Charging / discharging of thin PS / PMMA films as probed by dynamic x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
(2007)Polystyrene / polymethyl methacrylate (PS-PMMA) thin films were analyzed for detecting phase separation as well as probing their electrical responses by XPS. It was also shown that electrical parameters like resistance or ... -
Digital holographic microscopy of phase separation in multicomponent lipid membranes
(SPIE, 2016)Lateral in-homogeneities in lipid compositions cause microdomains formation and change in the physical properties of biological membranes. With the presence of cholesterol and mixed species of lipids, phospholipid membranes ... -
Facile synthesis of cross-linked patchy fluorescent conjugated polymer nanoparticles by click reactions
(2011)Here, we report a novel method to synthesize multifunctional nanoparticles that can be used in biological studies, such as in cell imaging and as a carrier for biomolecules/drugs. The nanoparticles were prepared either via ... -
Injectable in situ forming microparticles: A novel drug delivery system
(2012)Pharmaceutical formulation research has recently been focusing on delivery systems which provide long therapeutic effects and reduced side effects, and involving simplified production stages and facilitated application ... -
A new lyotropic liquid crystalline system: oligo(ethylene oxide) surfactants with [M(H2O)n]Xm transition metal complexes
(Wiley, 2001)Coordinated water molecules induce the aggregation and self-assembly of the lyotropic liquid crystalline phase formed from non-ionic surfactants CnH2n+1(CH2CH2O)mOH and transition metal aqua complexes ([Ni(H2O)6](NO3)2, ... -
Osteoselection supported by phase separated polymer blend films
(Wiley, 2015)The instability of implants after placement inside the body is one of the main obstacles to clinically succeed in periodontal and orthopedic applications. Adherence of fibroblasts instead of osteoblasts to implant surfaces ... -
Phase separation in liquid crystalline mesophases of [Co(H 2O)6]X2: P65 Systems (X = NO3-, Cl-, or ClO4-)
(2007)Transition-metal aqua complex salts [M(H2O)6]X 2 (where M is Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), or Cd(II) and X is NO3-, Cl-, or ClO4-) can be dissolved in triblock poly(ethylene oxide) - poly(propylene oxide) - poly(ethylene ... -
Quantum phase transitions from analysis of the polarization amplitude
(American Physical Society, 2019)In the modern theory of polarization, polarization itself is given by a geometric phase. In calculations for interacting systems the polarization and its variance are obtained from the polarization amplitude. We interpret ... -
Spectroscopic investigation of nitrate-metal and metal-surfactant interactions in the solid AgNO3/C12EO10 and liquid-crystalline [M(H2O)n](NO3)2/C12EO10 systems
(American Chemical Society, 2003)Interactions of the nitrate ions in various metal nitrate salts with CnH2n-1(CH2CH2O)mOH (CnEOm)-type nonionic surfactants have been investigated both in the solid and in the liquid-crystalline (LC) systems. In the ternary ... -
Two-dimensional boson-fermion mixtures in harmonic traps
(Elsevier Science B.V., 2003)The density profiles of bosonic and fermionic components in a system of trapped two-dimensional (2D) boson-fermion (BF) mixture are studied. We employ the variational approach to minimize the total energy functional of the ... -
Vortices in trapped boson-fermion mixtures
(Springer, 2005)We consider a trapped system of atomic boson-fermion mixture with a quantized vortex. We investigate the density profiles of bosonic and fermionic components as functions of the boson-boson and boson-fermion short-range ...
