The ESR properties and crystal structures of solid-state La@C(82) in empty fullerene matrices were investigated by changing the concentration of La@C(82) and the species of an empty fullerene matrix: C(60), C(70), C(78)(C(2v)(3)), C(82)(C(2)) and C(84)(D(2d)(4)). The rotational correlation time of La@C(82) molecules tended to be shorter when La@C(82) is dispersed in larger fullerene matrices be...

Structures and relative stabilities of carbon clusters belonging to different families have been investigated for diameters d < or = 5 nm based on an efficient semiempirical molecular dynamics (MD) scheme as well as a density functional theory based simulation. Carbon clusters studied include fullerenes and fullerene-derived structures (e.g., cages and onions), icosahedral structures, bucky-dia...

Insightfully understanding the process of volatiles from plastic depolymerization entering exterior into internal structure catalyst favors to rationalize design in scale-up principles. Herein, catalytic degradation wastes with fluid cracking (FCC) was investigated in-depth. The yield and composition liquid gas products over various FCCs were studied quantitatively. structural evolution on over...

Introduction and Background: Ceramics are inorganic, nonmetallic materials, such as alumina, beryllia, or glassceramic, whose final characteristics are produced by subjection to high temperatures. Nanomaterials is a rapidly growing area of ceramics [1-3] and can be classified into the following categories: Nano-particles submicron or ultra micron size particles; Nano-fibers – nanometer (nm) siz...

Design, syntheses, and testing of new, fullerene-wheeled single molecular nanomachines, namely, nanocars and nanotrucks, are presented. These nanovehicles are composed of three basic components that include spherical fullerene wheels, freely rotating alkynyl axles, and a molecular chassis. The use of spherical wheels based on C60 and freely rotating axles based on alkynes permits directed nanos...

Anatomical characteristics are essential in determining the stress that affects plants. In addition, they provided a piece of evidence for environmental pollution. The increasing use nanomaterials (EnNos) industries, medicine, agriculture, and all fields. Nanomaterials also have many uses as new science; toxic effects not been studied well. Therefore, this research was interested recording rece...

In this paper, we perform a detailed study of the spectral response of the gold U-shaped nano-structures for different geometrical parameters and polarizations in order to obtain significant localization factor in the wavelength 1.55 μm. The obtained near-field distribution of electric fields reveals that resonances in these nano-structures correspond to the even and odd plasmonic modes dependi...

Lipid bilayer membranes are important as fundamental structures in biology and possess characteristic water-permeability, stability, and mechanical properties. Water permeation through a lipid bilayer membrane occurs readily, and more readily at higher temperature, which is largely due to an enthalpy cost of the liquid-to-gas phase transition of water. A fullerene bilayer membrane formed by dis...

Nickel oxide nanoparticles in alcoholic solutions were developed for processing hole transport layers non-fullerene acceptor-based solar cells using inverted device structures.
