• Ellipticine derivatives: targeting cell proliferation by a structured approach 

  McKee, Mary (University College Cork, 2019)

  Ellipticine and its derivatives are molecules which possess potent anticancer activity. This thesis explores the synthesis of novel ellipticine derivatives, as well as modifications of the template, and evaluates their ...
• Novel approaches for genuine single phase room temperature magnetoelectric multiferroics 

  Keeney, Lynette; Schmidt, Michael; Amann, Andreas; Maity, Tuhin; Deepak, Nitin; Faraz, Ahmad; Petkov, Nikolay; Roy, Saibal; Pemble, Martyn E.; Whatmore, Roger W. (Wiley, 2016-05)

  This chapter reviews approaches currently under investigation for the fabrication of single‐phase magnetoelectric multiferroics, from bulk ceramics to those in thin‐film form. It presents an approach of inserting magnetic ...
• Interesting evidence for template-induced ferroelectric behavior in ultra-thin titanium dioxide films grown on (110) neodymium gallium oxide substrates 

  Deepak, Nitin; Caro, Miguel A.; Keeney, Lynette; Pemble, Martyn E.; Whatmore, Roger W. (Wiley, 2014-01-10)

  The first evidence for room-temperature ferroelectric behavior in anatase-phase titanium dioxide (a-TiO2) is reported. Behavior strongly indicative of ferroelectric characteristics is induced in ultra-thin (20 nm to 80 nm) ...
• Bismuth self-limiting growth of ultrathin BiFeO3 films 

  Deepak, Nitin; Carolan, Patrick; Keeney, Lynette; Zhang, Panfeng F.; Pemble, Martyn E.; Whatmore, Roger W. (American Chemical Society, ACS, 2015-09-11)

  Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) is a widely studied material, because of its interesting multiferroic properties. Bismuth self-limiting growth of single-phase BiFeO3 (BFO) has previously been achieved using molecular beam epitaxy ...
• Development of anisamide-targeted PEGylated gold nanorods to deliver epirubicin for chemo-photothermal therapy in tumour-bearing mice 

  Wang, Limei; Pei, Jin; Cong, Zhongcheng; Zou, Yifang; Sun, Tianmeng; Davitt, Fionán; Garcia-Gil, Adrià; Holmes, Justin D.; O'Driscoll, Caitríona M.; Rahme, Kamil; Guo, Jianfeng (Dove Press, 2019-03-08)

  Background: Gold nanorods (AuNRs), due to the optical and electronic properties namely the surface plasma resonance, have been developed to achieve the light-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) for cancer. However, PTT ...
