  Development of multifunctional nanomaterials, one of the most interesting and advanced research areas in the field of nanotechnology, is anticipated to revolutionize cancer diagnosis and treatment. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) ...
• Multiphase composition changes and reactive oxygen species formation during limonene oxidation in the new Cambridge Atmospheric Simulation Chamber (CASC) 

  Gallimore, P. J.; Mahon, B. M.; Wragg, F. P. H.; Fuller, S. J.; Giorio, C.; Kourtchev, Ivan (Copernicus Publications, 2017-08-22)

  The chemical composition of organic aerosols influences their impacts on human health and the climate system. Aerosol formation from gas-to-particle conversion and in-particle reaction was studied for the oxidation of ...
• Access to some C5-cyclised 2 pyrones and 2-pyridones via direct arylation; retention of chloride as a synthetic handle 

  McGlacken, Gerard P.; Fairlamb, Ian; Prendergast, Aisling; Pardo, Leticia (John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2017-08-04)

  The synthetic effort towards the functionalisation of C-H bonds on 2 pyrones and 2-pyridones has been funnelled by the preferential reactivity of the C-3 position. Herein, we report a direct arylation protocol for the ...
• Kinetic desorption models for the release of nanosilver from an experimental nanosilver coating on polystyrene food packaging 

  Hannon, Joseph Christopher; Kerry, Joseph P.; Cruz-Romero, Malco; Azlin-Hasim, Shafrina; Morris, Michael; Cummins, Enda (Elsevier, 2017-07-04)

  To predict the kinetic desorption of silver from an experimental nanosilver coated polystyrene food packaging material into food simulants (0, 1, 2 and 3% acetic acid (HAc) in distilled water (dH2O)) at 4 temperatures (10, ...
• Probing interface defects in top-gated MoS2 transistors with impedance spectroscopy 

  Zhao, Peng; Azcatl, Angelica; Gomeniuk, Yuri Y.; Bolshakov, Pavel; Schmidt, Michael; McDonnell, Stephen J.; Hinkle, Christopher L.; Hurley, Paul K.; Wallace, Robert M.; Young, Chadwin D. (American Chemical Society, 2017-06-26)

  The electronic properties of the HfO2/MoS2 interface were investigated using multifrequency capacitance–voltage (C–V) and current–voltage characterization of top-gated MoS2 metal–oxide–semiconductor field effect transistors ...
