TiO2 Nanocrystals Grown on Graphene as Advanced Photocatalytic Hybrid Materials [PDF]
Graphene/TiO2 nanocrystals hybrid is successfully prepared by directly growing TiO2 nanocrystals on graphene oxide (GO) sheets. The direct growth of nanocrystals on GO sheets was achieved by a two-step method, in which TiO2 was coated on GO sheets by ...

On ultrasmall nanocrystals [PDF]
Ultrasmall nanocrystals are a growing sub-class of traditional nanocrystals that exhibit new properties at diameters typically below 2 nm. In this review, we define what constitutes an ultrasmall nanoparticle while distinguishing between ultrasmall and magic-size nanoparticles.

Giant suppression of Auger electron cooling in charged nanocrystals [PDF]
This letter presents a detailed study of the electron relaxation lifetimes from the excited p-like state into the ground s-like state via Auger cooling in positively and negatively charged CdSe nanocrystals, where the dependence of Auger cooling rates on

Nanocrystals for enhancement of oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs
Nanocrystals, a carrier-free colloidal delivery system in nano-sized range, is an interesting approach for poorly soluble drugs. Nanocrystals provide special features including enhancement of saturation solubility, dissolution velocity and adhesiveness ...
