Mesoporous ZnS–NiS Nanocomposites for Nonenzymatic Electrochemical Glucose Sensors

Mesoporous ZnS-NiS composites are prepared via ion- exchange reactions using ZnS as the precursor. The prepared mesoporous ZnS-NiS composite materials have large surface areas (137.9 m(2) g(-1)) compared with the ZnS precursor. More importantly, the application of these mesoporous ZnS-NiS composites as nonenzymatic glucose sensors was successfully explored. Electrochemical sensors based on meso...

Efficiency of Entanglement Concentration by Photon Subtraction

The most used states in continuous variable quantum information processing are Gaussian states, such as coherent states, squeezed states, or Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen like states [1]. The latter type of entangled states are two mode squeezed vacuum and represents a common source for most quantum communication protocols, such as quantum teleportation [2], quantum key distribution [3], quantum dens...

Mechanochemical Synthesis of Magnetite/Hydroxyapatite Nanocomposites for Hyperthermia

Optimizing the relaxivity of GdIII complexes appended to InP/ZnS quantum dots by linker tuning.

Three bimodal MRI/optical nanosized contrast agents with high per-nanoparticle relaxivity (up to 2523 mM(-1) s(-1) at 35 MHz and 932 mM(-1) s(-1) at 200 MHz) have been prepared connecting up to 115 tris-aqua Gd(III) complexes to fluorescent non-toxic InP/ZnS quantum dots. The structure of the linker has an important effect on the relaxivity of the final multimeric contrast agent.
