AI Article Synopsis
- The study examined how different exposure times to ultraviolet (UV) light affect single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) that are wrapped in single-strand DNA (ssDNA).
- The researchers used absorption and Raman spectroscopy to measure changes in the properties of these nanotubes after UV exposure.
- Results showed that the absorbance of the ssDNA-wrapped SWNTs decreased, and those wrapped with a specific type of ssDNA (polyd(T)) tended to clump together when exposed to UV light.
Article Abstract
We have investigated the effect of ultraviolet irradiation exposure time on single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) wrapped with single-strand DNA (ssDNA) using absorption spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The absorbance value of ssDNA-wrapped SWNTs in aqueous media was found to be decreased, where as SWNTs wrapped with ssDNA with polyd(T) were aggregated under UV irradiation.

The organic semiconductor Y6 has been extensively used as an acceptor in organic photovoltaic devices, yielding high efficiencies. Its unique properties include a high refractive index, intrinsic exciton dissociation, and barrierless charge generation in bulk heterojunctions. However, the direct impact of the crystal packing morphology on the photophysics of Y6 has remained elusive, hindering further development of heterojunction and homojunction devices.

This study investigates the significance of single-walled (SWCNTs) and multi-walled (MWCNTs) carbon nanotubes with a convectional fluid (water) over a vertical cone under the influences of chemical reaction, magnetic field, thermal radiation and saturated porous media. The impact of heat sources is also examined. Based on the flow assumptions, the fundamental flow equations are modeled as partial differential equations (PDEs).

Polymers with carbon added and carbon-based nanomaterial have been demonstrated as propellants with high impulse coupling coefficient (C). Among them, the carbon nanotube film exhibits a low ablation threshold fluence of 25 mJ/cm, which shows its potential for propulsion under low laser fluence.

Fluorescent nanosensors operating have shown recent success toward informing basic plant biology and agricultural applications. We developed near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent nanosensors using the Corona Phase Molecular Recognition (CoPhMoRe) technique that distinguish Fe(II) and Fe(III) species with limit of detection as low as 10 nM. An anionic poly(p-phenyleneethynylene) (PPE) polyelectrolyte wrapped single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) shows up to 200% turn-on and 85% turn-off responses to Fe(II) and Fe(III), respectively, allowing spatial and temporal analysis of iron uptake in both foliar and root-to-shoot pathways.

Background: The clinical evidence about alveolar ridge changes following molar extraction and how the alveolar bone morphology influences the ridge dimensional changes remains limited.
Methods: A total of 192 patients with 199 molar extractions were included in this retrospective study. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of patients were obtained 0-3 months pre extraction and 6-12 months post extraction.
