A microporous Al trimesate-based metal–organic framework (MOF), denoted MIL-96-(Al), was selected as a porous hybrid filler for the processing of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) CO2/N2 postcombustion separation. First, structural model MIL-96-(Al) initially reported revisited using combination synchrotron-based single-crystal X-ray diffraction, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In second step, pure crystals differing by their...

Abstract Alloying strategies are commonly used to design electrocatalysts that take on properties of their constituent elements. Herein, such a strategy is develop Zn–Cu alloyed electrodes with unique hierarchical porosity and tunable selectivity for CO 2 versus H + reduction. By varying the Zn/Cu ratio, tailored syngas mixtures obtained without production other gaseous products, which attributed preferential CO‐ ‐forming pathways alloys. The ratios also significantly less sensitive applied...

Due to the increasing use of nanometric cerium oxide in applications, concerns about toxicity these particles have been raised and resulted a large number studies. We report here on interactions between 7 nm anionically charged living mammalian cells. By modification particle coating including low-molecular weight ligands polymers, two generic behaviours are compared: coated with citrate ions that precipitate biofluids poly(acrylic acid) stable remain nanometric. find nanoceria covered both...

Metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) has emerged as an effective method to fabricate high aspect ratio nanostructures. This requires a catalytic mask that is generally composed of metal. Here, we challenge the general view catalyst needs be metal by introducing oxide-assisted (OACE). We perform with oxides such RuO2 and IrO2 transposing materials used in electrocatalysis nanofabrication. These can solution-processed polymers exhibiting similar capabilities metals for MACE.

2D assemblies of resonant dielectric particles constitute promising materials for the next generation photonic devices, thanks to their low optical losses and intense electromagnetic response. However, bottom‐up synthesis methods present many difficulties when targeting metasurface applications, particularly due high degree positional disorder size dispersion particles. This work presents fabrication core–shell silicon@silica with multipolar resonances in visible near‐infrared. These are...

Magnetic cobalt ferrite/silica microparticles having both an original morphology and anisotropic nanostructure are synthesized through the use of external magnetic field nanoparticles characterized by a high anisotropy. The association these two factors implies that ESE (emulsion solvent evaporation) sol-gel method employed here allows preparation silica microellipsoids containing aggregated in large chains. It is clearly shown without this combination, microspheres isotropic distribution...

Abstract Manganite perovskite oxides exhibit a wide range of properties relevant for catalysis, energy conversion and spintronics. Such behaviors can be deeply modified at the nanoscale where confinement surface effects may prevail. Interesting could then emerge from manganite nanocrystals, although their synthesis remains challenge. The present study reports versatile nanocrystals by using molten salts as high temperature liquids in 600–750 °C range. Through X‐ray diffraction, photoelectron...

Nanostructuring boron-rich materials should significantly impact their thermal and electrical transport properties. Nonetheless, nanostructured monoliths of such could not be achieved in the 10 nm range so far, because large temperatures required to synthesize produce compounds. Such a nanostructuration may have important consequences for achieving trade-off between enhanced low conductivity materials, which are among few enabling thermoelectric power generation above 1000 K thanks...
