Highly water dispersible boron based compounds are innovative and advanced materials which can be used in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy for cancer treatment (BNCT). Present study deals with the synthesis of highly water dispersible nanostructured Boron Nitride (BN). Unique and relatively low temperature synthesis route is the soul of present study. The morphological examinations (Scanning/trans...

In this paper a stepwise compaction process of a ring semi-stiff polymer chain placed in a 3d conical nano-cavity and being under the action of the increasing external field is studied. Compaction from a circlelike shape to several toroidal-like loops for a three-dimensional system was observed. The thermodynamic stability of these toroidal-like structures was investigated by observing a hyster...

Silicene is a promising 2D Dirac material as building block for van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs). Here we investigate the electronic properties of hexagonal boron nitride/silicene (BN/Si) vdWHs using first-principles calculations. We calculate energy band structures BN/Si/BN with different rotation angles and find that silicene are retained protected robustly by BN layers. In BN/Si/BN/Si/...

Previous work from our group revealed two groups of women with bulimia nervosa (BN), one with, and one without alcohol dependence (AD). The current study sought to determine whether women with lifetime BN and AD (BN+AD+) were more similar to women with BN and no AD (BN+AD-) or to women with AD and no BN (BN-AD+) in terms of lifetime psychiatric comorbidity and psychological functioning. Data on...

The wetting of water on corrugated and flat hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) monolayers on Rh(111) is studied within a hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) approach. Water is treated by QM methods, whereas the interactions between liquid and substrate are described at the MM level. The electrostatic properties of the substrate are reproduced by assigning specifically generated par...

Cancer detection in early stage using a powerful and noninvasive tool is of high global interest. In this experiment, a small-molecular-weight glucose based derivative of Gd3+-1-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl) diethylene tri amine penta acetic acid (Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG) as a novel potential MR imaging contrast agents was synthesized. Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG was synthesized with reacting of Glucosamine...

The dot product formula allows one to measure an angle determined by two vectors, and a formula known to Euler and Lagrange outputs the measure of a solid angle in R3 given its three spanning vectors. However, there appears to be no closed form expression for the measure of an n-dimensional solid angle for n > 3. We derive a multivariable (infinite) Taylor series expansion to measure a simplici...

stabilizations and atomic level quadrupole coupling constant (cq) properties have been investigated for graphene–like monolayers (g–monolayers) of boron nitride (bn), boron phosphide (bp), aluminum nitride (aln), and aluminum phosphide (alp) structures. to this aim, density functional theory (dft) calculations have been performed to optimize the model structures and also to evaluate the cq para...
