Development of adsorptive membranes by confinement of activated biochar into electrospun nanofibers
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2016, 7, 1556–1563, doi:10.3762/bjnano.7.149
- efficient removal method due to feasibility, high efficiency and scalability. Using biochar derived from pinewood for adsorption is of high interest as pine trees account for the majority of forests around the world and more so in Canada. Each year, millions of them are cut and are used for industrial
Magnetic switching of nanoscale antidot lattices
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2016, 7, 733–750, doi:10.3762/bjnano.7.65
- down to violations of the ice rules, as well as a magnetisation reversal along a one-dimensional path [17]. The preparation of artificial spin-ice structures by means of nanosphere lithography offers additional possibilities as compared to established e-beam lithography. With its easy scalability, the
Synthesis and applications of carbon nanomaterials for energy generation and storage
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2016, 7, 149–196, doi:10.3762/bjnano.7.17
- industry in the development of this technology. There are more than ten processes available to synthesize graphene but only the following five can be reasonably considered in terms of quality and material scalability (Figure 14) [81]: Mechanical exfoliation Chemical exfoliation Chemical exfoliation via
- the worst in terms of scalability. In contrast, CVD methods can produce pristine graphene sheets but only in limited quantities. Large quantities of graphene sheets have recently been obtained with CVD methods using catalytic metal substrates [82][83]. However, associated problems such as harsh
- , highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) is chosen in order to guarantee a product of high quality graphene crystallites. The main advantages of this method are the ability to complete this process at room temperature and with inexpensive equipment. However, in terms of scalability, it performs the worst
The eNanoMapper database for nanomaterial safety information
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2015, 6, 1609–1634, doi:10.3762/bjnano.6.165
Molecular materials – towards quantum properties
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2015, 6, 1485–1486, doi:10.3762/bjnano.6.153
- coupling between molecular qubits as required by scalability for logical quantum gate operations. We have gathered in the Thematic Series contributions dealing with the magnetic properties of molecules, partially under use of lanthanide metal ions und their coordination under surface confinement. By the
Pt- and Pd-decorated MWCNTs for vapour and gas detection at room temperature
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2015, 6, 919–927, doi:10.3762/bjnano.6.95
- very homogeneous. This procedure is performed at the device level (i.e., for carbon nanotubes deposited onto sensor substrates) for many devices in one batch, which illustrates the scalability for the mass production of affordable nanosensors. The response to selected aromatic and non-aromatic volatile
Sublattice asymmetry of impurity doping in graphene: A review
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2014, 5, 1210–1217, doi:10.3762/bjnano.5.133
- emergence of magnetic properties in the system [20][21]. Whilst these findings are certainly interesting, their scalability, and hence commercial application, is prohibited by the standard of precision that must be met in order to produce such materials. Circumventing these problems using nitrogen doped
AFM as an analysis tool for high-capacity sulfur cathodes for Li–S batteries
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2013, 4, 611–624, doi:10.3762/bjnano.4.68
- applications. Besides efficiency and energy density, numerous other requirements have to be fulfilled, which include industrial scalability and the capability for mass-production. In the last few decades, lithium–sulfur batteries have attracted increasing attention due to their high theoretical energy density
The memory effect of nanoscale memristors investigated by conducting scanning probe microscopy methods
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2012, 3, 722–730, doi:10.3762/bjnano.3.82
- limited by the total piezo scan range (up to hundreds of microns in common SFM systems) and the short dimension is limited by the contact area of the tip and, therefore, dependent on the tip radius. At present, lines as thin as about 50–100 nm can be performed, demonstrating the scalability of the
A facile approach to nanoarchitectured three-dimensional graphene-based Li–Mn–O composite as high-power cathodes for Li-ion batteries
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2012, 3, 513–523, doi:10.3762/bjnano.3.59
- . There are also some reports on the preparation of LIB anodes using graphene prepared by chemical vapor deposition [33][34]. However, such application will be limited due to cost and scalability. Electrochemical exfoliation is a newly developed method that can be used to prepare highly conductive
Towards a scalable and accurate quantum approach for describing vibrations of molecule–metal interfaces
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2011, 2, 427–447, doi:10.3762/bjnano.2.48
- structures methods or performance of the implemented algorithms. This capability is a necessity for the investigation of large systems as the many packages that implement efficient density functional theory (DFT) are still in development and change on a regular basis. Scalability of the vibrational approach
- also easily integrable, as they are based on delta functions. The limiting part of the calculation is the diagonalisation of an Ng × Ng matrix, where Ng is the number of grid points (which must be even in this approach). We use mathematical libraries (Lapack) to ensure the scalability of the approach
