Introduction: Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a nanotechnology-assisted cancer hyperthermia approach in which the interaction between laser light and plasmonic nanoparticles generates a localized heating for thermoablation of the tumor. Recent efforts in the area of PTT follow two important aims: (i) exploitation of targeting strategies for preferential accumulation of plasmonic ...

In this work, an attempt has been made to modify the shape and nanostructure of core-shell materials, which have been usually generated on the basis of amorphous spherical cores. Novel core-shell silicate particles, each of which consists of a silicalite-1 zeolite crystal core and mesoporous shell (ZCMS), were synthesized for the first time. The ZCMS core-shell particles are unique because they...

Due to their high integrity, facile surface chemistry, excellent stability, and dual properties from the core and shell materials, magnetic-plasmonic core-shell nanoparticles are of great interest across a number of science, engineering and biomedical disciplines. They are promising for applications in a broad range of areas including catalysis, energy conversion, biological separation, medical...

Background: Multifunctional core-shell magnetic nanocomposite particles with tunable characteristics have been paid much attention for biomedical applications in recent years. A rational design and suitable preparation method must be employed to be able to exploit attractive properties of magnetic nanocomposite particles. Objectives: Herein, we report on a simple approach for the synthesis of m...

in this work, a novel hg2+ sensitive fluorescent chemosensor is constructed. the proposednano-chemosensor was prepared through the preparation of 3-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-7-hydroxy-2h-chromen-2-one functionalized silica nanoparticles which has high magnetization properties (btc-fe3o4@sio2). theûnal product was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), thermal gravimetric...

In this work, we present a facile, low-cost, and effective approach to fabricate the UV photodetector with a CuI/ZnO double-shell nanostructure which was grown on common copper microwire. The enhanced performances of Cu/CuI/ZnO core/double-shell microwire photodetector resulted from the formation of heterojunction. Benefiting from the piezo-phototronic effect, the presentation of piezocharges c...

Core-shell carbon nanotube (CNT)-Si heterogeneous nanowires have been identified as one of the most promising candidates for future anode materials in lithium ion batteries. However, stress in these nanostructures, is the long-existing bottleneck, rendering severe fading of the capacities and even failure of the batteries. We prove that the interfaces between CNT cores and Si shells play a crit...

In the present study, magnetic core-shell manganese ferrite nanoparticles (MCMNP) were synthesized and used for construction of a magnetic core-shell manganese ferrite nanoparticles modified screen-printed carbon electrode (MCSNP-SPCE). Cyclic voltammetry was used to study the electrochemical behavior of chlorpromazine (CPZ) and its determination was conducted by applying square wave voltammetr...

Fe3O4 and Fe3O4/Ag core–shell nanocomposite powders were synthesized via the co-precipitation method. The structure, microstructure, magnetic, optical properties of studied. XRD patterns UV–Vis spectra showed that nanostructure particles successfully synthesized. AFM MFM mode micrographs confirm formation in nano-scale range. Both composite represented superparamagnetic behavior due to nanosize...
