چکیده

A convenient protocol has been developed to fabricate well-defined nanorods of a photochromic molecule N-(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-4-aminopyridine (DBSAP) by a laser ablation method. Reversible and fatigue-resistant optical switching and SHG activity were demonstrated. Interestingly, it was observed that DBSAP nanorods exhibit intermediate photochromic properties compared to solution and solid.

Optical and Nano structural properties of Hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanorods in interaction with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) Protein Solution

Hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanorods were synthesized by hydrothermal method using Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a surfactant agent. To study optical, nanostructural properties, and to control the morphology and shape of nanorods, 0.025 mol L-1, 0.05 mol L-1 and 0.1 mol L-1 concentration of CTAB were used. Moreover, the effect of interaction between bovine serum albumin (BSA) A9418-5G protein...

Solid-state photochemical and photomechanical properties of molecular crystal nanorods composed of anthracene ester derivatives†

A series of 9-anthroate esters that can form photoresponsive molecular crystal nanorods is prepared and their properties are investigated. All crystal structures that can support a [4 + 4] photodimerization reaction lead to nanorods that undergo photomechanical deformations without fragmentation. In order to determine the molecular-level motions that give rise to the nanorod photomechanical res...

Effect of Titania Colloid Solution Concentration on Hydrophobicity of Well-Aligned TiO2 Nanorods Synthesized via Hydrothermal Method

Among one dimensional nanomaterials, TiO2 nanorods have found important applications in various industries due to optical, photocatalyst and self-cleaning properties. In this research, at first TiO2 nanorods were synthesized on a glass substrate by hydrothermal method. Then a thin film of TiO2 particles was dip coated (as seed layer) on the substrate. After that, hydrothermal synthesis of TiO2 ...

Birefringence Properties and Surface Relief Grating Formation on Methylacrylate Polymers with Photochromic Side Chains

We have studied light-induced birefringence (LIB) and surface relief grating (SRG) formation in the series of methylacrylate polymers. The effect of material structure such as length of photochromic side chain, glass transition temperature and molecular structure of azo units on LIB and SRG are studied. The optical formation of self-induced SRG on films of these materials is also presented.

Structural, Optical and Ultra-Violet Photodetection Properties of ZnO Nanorods with Various Aspect Ratios

ZnO nanorods with various lengths were synthesized by a two-stage route (by changing the time of growth between 0-240 min) and were characterized using XRD, SEM, UV–Vis and PL techniques. The SEM and XRD results confirmed a fast growth of (0 0 2) plane in the preferential longitudinal orientation, in contrast to lateral growth and therefore, by increasing the time of hydrothermal growth, nanoro...
