The effect of surface-modified nano-hydroxyapatite on biocompatibility of poly(ε-caprolactone)/hydroxyapatite nanocomposites

We describe the effect of surface-modified hydroxyapatite (HAp) nano-crystals on biocompatibility of a new-type nanocomposite consisting of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and HAp. Surface-modified hydroxyapatite (HAp) nano-crystals were prepared by chemically grafting PCL on HAp surfaces. Time-dependent phase monitoring indicated that PCL surface-grafting contributed to the enhanced dispersion of HAp at nano-level in the PCL solution. The protein adhesion and cell experiments showed that the presence of PCL-grafted HAp nano-crystals in nanocomposites contributed to the enhanced biocompatibility. PCL-grafted HAp in nanocomposites provided more favorable environments for protein adsorption, compared with unmodified HAp. Nanocomposites containing PCL-grafted nanophase HAp showed positive effects on adhesion and proliferation of NIH3T3 fibroblasts.

Syntheses of Nanocrystals Using Solid-state Double Decomposition Reactions at Room-temperature:CdS,ZnS and CaCO3

Development of effective and reproducible approaches for preparing large amount of uniformly sized or narrowly size-distributed inorganic nanocrystals has remained as a great challenge in materials chemistry research in the past decade. Based upon Xiang and coworkers, work^[1], in this paper we present a simple and effective approach directly utilizing solid-state double decomposition reactions at room temperature to produce nano-particles of CdS, ZnS and CaCO₃ in the size range of 3-20 nm measured with x-ray diffraction. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images of these nano-crystals confirm the existence of the aggregated "islands" of nano-crystals as the main body of the samples and the partially dispersed nano-particles in some areas. The processes of morphological variation and self-assembly of CdS nano-particles under electron beam bombardment are discussed as well.

Electronic Structure and Optical Properties of the Surface F-Centers in MgO: A Theoretical Analysis by DFT Approach

Electronic structure of Mg9O9 and Mg9O8 clusters modeling nano-crystalline powders of magnesium oxide has been analyzed within the frames of the density functional theory (DFT). In the framework of time-dependent DFT method (TD-DFT), the relationship between the surface and bulk properties of nano-crystals is analyzed based on variations in the density of electronic states (DOS) and changes of electronic spectra. The spectroscopy of spatial defects like low-coordinated oxygen ions and of surface point defects like F⁺- and F-centers is investigated. Optical properties of the nano-sized crystalline magnesium oxide are characterized by a spectrum of absorption bands in the range of 1-5 eV. Point defects such as F-centers absorb light in the range of 1.2-1.5 eV. Spatial defects O_LC in nano-crystals generate absorption bands in the range of 2.5-5.0 eV. According to calculations, there is no direct relation between coordination numbers of surface ions and excitation energies. Theoretical excitation energies are compared with experimental optical properties of the F⁺- and F-centers.     

Distribution-related luminescence of Eu sensitized by SnO2 nano-crystals embedding in oxide glassy matrix

Eu³⁺ doped transparent glass ceramics embedding SnO₂ nano-crystals were prepared by melt quenching and subsequent heating. Site selective excitation experiments revealed that some Eu³⁺ ions were incorporated in the SnO₂ lattices by substituting Sn⁴⁺ ions, whereas the rest located in the oxide glassy matrix. Interestingly, it is found that the Eu³⁺ ions residing in the SnO₂ lattices exhibited much longer luminescent decay lifetime than those in the glassy matrix. Measurements on the photoluminescence excitation and photoluminescence spectra demonstrated the occurrence of energy transfer from the SnO₂ nano-crystals to the Eu³⁺ ions. The influences of Eu³⁺ content, and furthermore, their location on the energy transfer process were discussed.     

Microstructure and luminescence of transparent glass ceramic containing Er:BaF2 nano-crystals

Transparent BaF₂-SiO₂ glass ceramics doped with different content of Er³⁺ were prepared by sol-gel method. The microstructural evolution of the samples was studied with X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), absorption and infrared spectra (IR). BaF₂ nano-crystals with 2-15 nm in size, depending on the crystallization temperature, distributed homogeneously among the amorphous silica matrix. The BaF₂ lattice parameters decreased with the increasing of Er³⁺ doping, indicating the incorporation of Er³⁺ into nano-crystals, which was further confirmed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and absorption spectra analysis. The upconversion emissions of Er³⁺ emerged under the excitation at 980 nm for glass ceramic heat-treated at 800 °C.

Spectroscopic properties of Nd3+ doped transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramics

In this paper, the spectroscopic properties of Nd(3+) doped transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramics containing LaF(3) nano-crystals were systematically studied. The formation and distribution of LaF(3) nano-crystals in the glass matrix were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Based on Judd-Ofelt theory, the intensity parameters Omega(t) (t=2, 4, 6), spontaneous emission probability, radiative lifetime, radiative quantum efficiency, width of the emission line and stimulated emission cross-section of Nd(3+) were evaluated. Particularly, the effect of Nd(3+) doping level on them was discussed. With the increase of Nd(3+) concentration in the glass ceramic, the experimental luminescence lifetime, radiative quantum efficiency and stimulated emission cross-section vary from 353.4 micros, 78.3% and 1.86 x 10(-20)cm(2) to 214.7 micros, 39.9% and 1.52 x 10(-20)cm(2), respectively. The comparative study of Nd(3+) spectroscopic parameters in different hosts suggests that the investigated glass ceramic system is potentially applicable as laser materials for 1.06 microm emission.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of nickel ferrite nano-octahedra

High yield of nickel ferrite nano-octahedra with size distribution from 40 to 90 nm were synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method. The formation of faceted octahedra enclosed by {111} planes implies the much faster growth rate along 〈100〉 over 〈111〉 for face-centered cubic phase during hydrothermal process. Magnetic measurements indicated that the sample is soft-magnetic materials with much lower coercivity and much higher saturation magnetization compared to the nickel ferrite nano-crystals with similar size distribution but irregular shapes reported earlier.

半导体纳米晶具有独特的量子限域效应以及新颖的尺寸和形貌依赖特性,已被证实是在低成本高性能光伏器件、光致及电致发光二极管、生物成像、光催化等领域非常具有潜力的新型材料.其中,II-VI族与I-III-VI族半导体纳米晶由于其优异的性能在过去的数十年中引起了广泛的关注.过去数十年对于II-VI族半导体纳米晶的研究已经十分成熟,然而几乎所有的传统II-VI族半导体纳米晶都含有对环境有害的元素,对人体和环境造成不可逆转的伤害,从而限制了II-VI族半导体纳米晶的进一步应用.与二元II-VI族纳米晶相比,大部分三元I-III-VI族纳米晶不含镉和铅等重金属元素,因而具有低毒性的特点,并且其带隙窄、吸光收系数大、斯托克斯位移大、自吸收小以及发光波长在近红外区,所以有望使其成为新一代荧光纳米晶材料.例如,CuInS_2的带隙为1.53 eV,与太阳光谱匹配且其吸光系数较大,在10.5cm.~1左右,从而使其成为制备太阳能电池的一种优秀材料.另一方面,I-III-VI族纳米晶在可见光和近红外范围内呈现与尺寸相关的发光,它们的荧光量子产率在包覆ZnS壳后可超过50%,因而在照明,显示和生物成像领域具广泛应用的潜力.水溶性的I-III-VI族量子点粒径尺寸可以小于10 nm,可以减小纳米颗粒通过肾清除的淘汰率,并且具有高荧光性能和耐光性的特点,因此成为进行生物成像工作的优秀材料.与此同时,I-III-VI族纳米晶在光催化领域也展现了巨大的发展前景.本综述主要关注I-III-VI族纳米晶的合成,性质及应用.首先,我们概述了不同的化学合成方法,并列举讨论了一些经典的工作,根据纳米晶的种类分类统计了主要合成方法、形貌及尺寸.第二部分,我们讨论了它们的光物理和电子特性,解释了纳米晶的"donor-acceptor pair"(DAP)结合机理,概述了I-III-VI族纳米晶的磁光现象.接下来,我们概述了I-III-VI族纳米晶主要的应用领域,着重总结了在太阳能电池领域、半导体发光二极管领域、生物成像领域以及光催化制氢领域的研究进展.最后,我们会讨论半导体纳米晶的应用前景,以及它的机遇和挑战.     

Preparation of cellulose nano-crystals through a sequential process of cellulase pretreatment and acid hydrolysis

In this paper, a cellulase pretreatment was studied prior to the acid hydrolysis to decrease the total acid usage during the cellulose nano-crystals (CNC) preparation from a bleached softwood kraft pulp. Cellulase pretreatment facilitates the subsequent acid hydrolysis to produce CNC with similar quality to that of the control, but at a lower sulfuric acid concentration. The underline mechanism is that cellulase pretreatment led to the formation of more carbonyl groups which can be oxidized into carboxyl groups in the subsequent acid hydrolysis, furthermore, more hydroxyl groups are exposed, thus esterification into sulfonic groups can be enhanced. The results showed that with a cellulase dosage of 4.8 u/g (based on dry pulp) in the pretreatment stage, the sulfuric acid concentration can be decreased from 64 to 40 wt% without compromising the quality of resulting CNC particles. Other results from charge properties, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses also supported the conclusions.     

Structural and thermodynamic features of the polyhydroxybutyrate physical gels

The structural and thermal properties of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) gels in dimethylformamide (DMF) are presented and discussed. The dilute and semi-dilute mixed PHB/DMF system undergoes a phase separation on cooling at a temperature T_gel, producing a gel in which the crystalline fraction is of the order of 50-60% and the diffraction pattern is that of disperse nano-crystals, with the same unit cell of the pure crystalline PHB. Upon heating, two melting peaks are normally observed at T_m1 and T_m2 (always higher than T_gel). Shapes of the peaks, temperatures and enthalpies of melting depend slightly on scanning rate on heating but on the procedure of gel preparation. Reproducibility and reversibility have always been found with repeated thermal cycles. A thermodynamic phase diagram is therefore constructed and discussed, although the morphology of the system may be subject to the experimental conditions under which the gel is prepared.
