Investigating calcite growth rates using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) [PDF]

, 2018
Calcite precipitation plays a significant role in processes such as geological carbon sequestration and toxic metal sequestration and, yet, the rates and mechanisms of calcite growth under close to equilibrium conditions are far from well understood.

Thermal Instability Pathways of Aluminum‐Based Nanocomposites: The Role of Alloying‐Element‐Driven Precipitation and Amorphous Interlayers

Small, EarlyView.
Thermal instability mechanisms governing novel Al‐based PVD/ALD nanocomposites are uncovered through synchrotron XRD, STEM, APT, and micromechanical testing. Temperature‐dependent crystallite evolution reveals a defined stability window before degradation dominates, offering new insight into the design of thermally robust, functional Al‐based ...

Protein Corona Engineering of Lipid Nanoparticles Enables Efficient Functional Gene Silencing in the Liver

Small, EarlyView.
By shaping the protein corona, lipid composition directs LNP tropism and enables the preferential delivery of a TIMP1‐targeting siRNA to liver macrophages. In a murine model of primary biliary cholangitis, this strategy promoted macrophage reprogramming and attenuated liver fibrosis.

Metal‐Organic Framework‐Templated Deconstruction‐Reconstruction Enables One‐Dimensional to Two‐Dimensional Self‐Assembly of Transition Metal Phosphates for High‐Performance Ammonia Sensing

Small, EarlyView.
One‐dimensional nickel phosphate nanofibres are transformed into two‐dimensional quasi‐nanosheets through a metal‐organic framework‐templated deconstruction‐reconstruction strategy. The hierarchical nanofibre‐assembled architecture provides rich mesoporosity, accessible adsorption sites, and rapid ammonia diffusion, enabling high‐performance QCM ...

Investigation of Tin Oxide Atomic Layer Deposition on the Performance of Evaporated Perovskite Solar Cells

Small, EarlyView.
Impact of co‐reactants and their doses utilized during the atomic layer deposition of SnOx on perovskite/C60 structures on the performance of p‐i‐n perovskite solar cells. ABSTRACT Although tin oxide (SnOx) layers grown using atomic layer deposition (ALD) are routinely employed in p‐i‐n perovskite solar cells (PSCs), the correlation between ALD process
