Performance of nanomaterials in these applications are directly related to the well-defined properties, phase, composition, size, and morphology, of the nanocrystals. Strategies exist to synthesize colloidal nanocrystals with well-defined properties tailored to desired applications by optimization of several parameters such as concentration and nature of precursors and surfactants, temperature, additives, and multi-step procedures, which can be time

The electronic structure of the films was https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy for samples with m = 1, 2, 3, and 7 and compared to binary samples of TiSe2 and SnSe. The observed binding energies of core levels and valence bands of the heterostructures are largely independent of m. For the SnSe layers, we can observe a rigid band shift in the heterostructures compared to the binary, which can be explained by electron transfer from SnSe to TiSe2. The electronic structure of the TiSe2 layers shows a more complicated behavior, as a small shift can be observed in the valence band and Se3d spectra, but the Ti2p core level remains at a constant energy. Complementary UV photoemission spectroscopy measurements confirm a charge transfer mechanism where the SnSe layers donate electrons into empty Ti3d states at the Fermi energy.

  • Germane Facts About Germanium Sesquioxide: I. Chemistry and Anticancer Properties

Chemistry and Anticancer Properties BONNIEJ. KAPLAN, Ph.D., 1 W. WESLEYPARISH, Ph.D., 2 G. MERRILLANDRUS, Ph.D., 2 J. STEVENA. SIMPSON, Ph.D., M.D., 3 and CATHERINEJ. FIELD, Ph.D., R.D. 4 ABSTRACT This paper reviews the history, chemistry, safety, toxicity, and anticancer effects of the organogermanium compound bis (2-carboxyethylgermanium) sesquioxide (CEGS). A companion review follows, discussing the inaccuracies in the scientific record that have prematurely terminated research on clinical uses of CEGS. CEGS is a unique organogermanium compound first made by Mironov and coworkers in Russia and, shortly there- after, popularized by Asai and his colleagues in Japan. Low concentrations of germanium occur in nearly all soils, plants and animal life; natural occurrence of the CEGS form is postulated but not yet demonstrated. The literature demonstrating its anticancer effect is particularly strong: CEGS induces interferon- g (IFN-g), en- hances natural killer cell activity, and inhibits tumor and metastatic growth—effects often detectable after a single oral dose. In addition, oral consumption of CEGS is readily assimilated and rapidly cleared from the body without evidence of toxicity. Given these findings, the absence of human clinical trials of CEGS is un- expected. Possible explanations of why the convincing findings from animal research have not been used to support clinical trials are discussed. Clinical trials on CEGS are recommended.

  • Designing Isoelectronic Counterparts to Layered Group V Semiconductors
    Designing isoelectronic counterparts to layered group V semiconductors Zhen Zhu, Jie Guan, Dan Liu, and David Tom´anek∗ Physics and Astronomy Department, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan 48824, USA In analogy to III-V compounds, which have significantly broadened the scope of group IV semi- conductors, we propose IV-VI compounds as isoelectronic counterparts to layered group V semi- conductors. Using ab initio density functional theory, we study yet unrealized structural phases of silicon mono-sulfide (SiS). We find the black-phosphorus-like α-SiS to be almost equally stable as the blue-phosphorus-like β-SiS. Both α-SiS and β-SiS monolayers display a significant, indirect band gap that depends sensitively on the in-layer strain. Unlike 2D semiconductors of group V elements with the corresponding nonplanar structure, different SiS allotropes show a strong polarization either within or normal to the layers. We find that SiS may form both lateral and vertical heterostructures with phosphorene at a very small energy penalty, offering an unprecedented tunability in structural and electronic properties of SiS-P compounds. INTRODUCTION RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 2D semiconductors of group V elements, including Since all atoms in sp3 layered structures of group V el- phosphorene and arsenene, have been rapidly attract- ements are threefold coordinated, the different allotropes ing interest due to their significant fundamental band can all be topologically mapped onto the honeycomb lat- gap, large density of states near the Fermi level, and tice of graphene with 2 sites per unit cell.[11] An easy high and anisotropic carrier mobility[1{4].
