A simple, effective and interesting method for gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) synthesis with nonthermal microplasma is developed in this study. The device of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) microplasma generator with a spray portion is designed and fabricated for uniform AuNPs synthesis. The AuNPs can be synthesized effectivelyin situby the DBD microplasma generated on the nozzle of the pneumatic micro-nebulizer. The mechanism of the AuNPs formation under microplasma, the effect of nebulization for uniform AuNPs synthesis and other significant parameters are investigated in the experiment. The morphology and optical properties of the synthesized gold nanoparticles are also characterized. The minimum particle size in average obtained by the proposed method is 4.9 ± 1.1 nm. The particle size of AuNPs can be controlled in the range of 4.9-16.8 nm by the various aqueous solution conditions.
This work reports on the fabrication and thermal stability of self-organized titania nanostructures on Ti6Al4V alloy. Ti6Al4V sheets were anodized in 1 M NaH 2 PO 4 containing 0.5 wt% HF. And the anodized sheets were heat-treated at different temperatures to test their thermal stability. SEM observations revealed that, for the two-phase Ti6Al4V alloy, there were two different kinds of nanostructures (nanotubes grown at alpha-phase region and inhomogeneous nanopores grown at beta-phase region) formed on the substrate surface. The nanotubes can withstand a high temperature of 650degC without collapsing but sinter to densification at 675-700degC.
Manipulating the photoresponse of two-dimensional electron gas at the interface of complex oxides is attracting tremendous interest because of its potential applications in photoelectric devices. In this study, transport behaviors of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterointerfaces tuned by a nickelate buffer layer under light irradiation have been investigated. With the increasing thickness of the buffer layer, the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interfaces exhibit the metal-to-insulator transition. More importantly, we also observe a substantial enhancement in the photoresponse under a 360 nm light irradiation and the relative change in the resistance of heterointerfaces is enhanced from 6.8% (without a buffer layer) to 50 139% (with a 1.6 u.c. buffer layer) at 300 K. Moreover, the heterointerfaces exhibit a state of change from persistent to transient photoconductivity. These emerging results are analyzed in view of the relevant mechanisms of band bending and lattice effects. This work provides experimental support for the application of perovskite oxides in interface optoelectronics.

Abstract In this study, polyols recycled from decomposed polyurethane (PU) foam wastes were used in preparing adhesives for plywood manufacturing. A polyol was made from chemically decomposed flexible PU foam wastes separated from automobile shredder residue. The recycled polyol was mixed with a commercial polyol at weight ratios of 100/0, 25/75, 50/50, 25/75, and 0/100, respectively. These polyol mixtures were mixed, respectively, with polymeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanate at isocyanate group–to–hydroxyl group (NCO/OH) molar ratios of 1.0, 1.25, and 1.5 to prepare adhesives. The recycled polyol and adhesives were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Plywood specimens bonded by the adhesives were fabricated and tested. The effects of NCO/OH molar ratio and recycled polyol–to–commercial polyol weight ratio on adhesive gel time and bonding strength before and after water treatments were evaluated. The adhesives prepared from recycled polyol presented shorter gel time and greater dry...
