Tantalum boride is an ultra-refractory and ultra-hard ceramic known so far for its favorable high-temperature thermo-mechanical properties and also characterized by a low spectral emittance, making it interesting for novel high-temperature solar abso...

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with hierarchical porous structures have been attracting intense interest currently due to their promising applications in catalysis, energy storage, drug delivery, and photocatalysis. Current fabrication methods...

4-Nitrophenol (4-NP) has been listed as a priority pollutant and has also been reported as a human urinary metabolite used as a marker to evaluate exposure to certain pesticides. In the work herein, a solvothermal approach is applied to the one-pot s...

Microemulsions are novel drug delivery systems that have garnered significant attention in the pharmaceutical research field. These systems possess several desirable characteristics, such as transparency and thermodynamic stability, which make them s...

Colloidal microswarms have attracted increasing attention in the last decade due to their unique capabilities in various complex tasks. Thousands or even millions of tiny active agents are gathered with distinctive features and emerging behaviors, de...

The field of membrane technology has experienced significant growth in recent years, especially in the areas of wastewater treatment and desalination [...]

Roll-to-roll nanoimprinting is an emerging technology that has revolutionized the sectors of flexible electronics, thin films, and solar cells with its high throughput. However, there is still room for improvement. In this study, a FEM analysis (in A...

Real water remediation is an important issue that requires the development of novel adsorbents with remarkable adsorption properties, permitting reusability. In this work, the surface and adsorption properties of bare magnetic iron oxide nanoparticle...

The continuous consumption of fossil energy and excessive emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) have caused a serious energy crisis and led to the greenhouse effect. Using natural resources to convert CO2 into fuel or high-value chemicals is considered t...

Graphene/silicon (Si) heterojunction photodetectors are widely studied in detecting of optical signals from near-infrared to visible light. However, the performance of graphene/Si photodetectors is limited by defects created in the growth process and...
