Liposomes entrapping nickel-based magnetic nanoparticles (magnetoliposomes) were prepared and characterized.
The research on interplanetary materials such as comets, meteors or meteorites contributes to understand the origin and evolution of our Solar System. They provide highly valuable information on the relation between the conditions of formation and their microstructure, chemical composition and magnetic properties. Orientation relationships of the Fe-Ni system and distribution of body-centered cubic kamacite-α,...
In this work, magnetic nanoparticles of magnetite were prepared by soft chemical methods, using different surfactants as templating media. These nanoparticles were either covered with a lipid bilayer, forming dry magnetoliposomes, or entrapped in liposomes - aqueous magnetoliposomes.
In this work, magnetic nanoparticles of nickel core with silica shell were prepared by soft chemical methods, using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and different surfactants as templating media. These nanoparticles were either covered with a lipid bilayer or entrapped in liposomes.
Thin films of Pr 0.5 Ca 0.5 MnO 3 have been deposited on z-cut LiNbO 3 by pulsed laser ablation. The X-ray diffraction measurements showed that the films have grown highly oriented on LiNbO 3 , with a pseudocubic (111) preferred growth direction. The thicknesses of the films, measured by low angle X-ray reflectivity, are between 13 and 140 nm. Their electrical resistivity present a...
Ti–Si–C–ON films were deposited by DC reactive magnetron sputtering and their chemical properties, biofilm formation and toxicity were characterized. Based on the films composition three different growth regimes were identified on the films; (I) N/Ti = 2.11 (high atomic ratio) and low oxygen content; (II) 0.77 ≤ N/Ti ≤ 1.86 (intermediate atomic ratio) and (III) N/Ti ≤ 0.12 (low ratio) and high oxygen content. T...
TiO2 is a wide bandgap semiconductor material used as the photo anode in dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC). The fabrication of TiO2 on conductive glass substrates plays an important role in the solar cell efficiency, since the thickness of the TiO2 coating affects the transmission, photoconductive properties and the efficiency of solar cells. The uncorrected transmission in our fabricated films is as high as 80...
Nanofibers consisting of the optically nonlinear organic molecule urea embedded in both poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) polymers were produced by the electrospinning technique. The second-harmonic generation produced by aligned fiber mats of these materials displays a strong dependence on the polarization of the incident light. In PVA-urea nanofibers the effectiveness in generating of t...
Detailed structural, microstructural, biofilm formation and cytotoxicity studies were performed on Ti-Si-C-ON hard coatings prepared by dc reactive magnetron sputtering, in order to evaluate the relation among these properties. Compositional analysis showed the existence of two distinct regimens; regime I: high C/Si atomic ratio (C/Si ≥1,42) and intermediate N/Ti atomic ratio; regime II: low C/Si atomic ratio (...
