Graphical Abstract
  • -emission performance. However, it was demonstrated that a fluorine-based functionalization of carbon nanomaterials such as diamond films [83] or amorphous carbon nanoparticle films [84] increases the yield of the phenomenon. The fluorination of carbon nanofibers [85] and SWCNTs [86] was also underlined
  • membrane. Feng et al. [140] opted for a polyaniline (PANI) matrix. This material is one of the most conducting polymers (Figure 18). Synthesis and characterization of conducting polymer polyaniline nanofibers was reported by Huang [141]. The major issue related to great disorder of the functionalized

Graphical Abstract
  • proposed as the inorganic nanotube to be hybridized with P3HT nanofibers. Reinforcement of P3HT nanofibers by imogolite is expected to impart additional mechanical and thermal stability to organic compounds, making the resulted hybrid material more durable under the outer environmental conditions
  • -defined low-dimensional structures. In order to improve compatibility with the P3HT nanofibers, hydrophilic Al–OH groups on the imogolite surface were modified with alkyl phosphonic acid substituted terthiophene (HT3P), as shown in Figure 21. The molecular aggregation states and molecular orientation of
  • powerful tool for the direct observation of the aggregation of polymeric nanofibers. By spin coating a dilute solution in anisole, a network of nanofibers more or less entirely covers the silicon substrate. The dimensions of the nanofiber were determined from DFM images; as shown in Figure 23a, P3HT

  • carbons (CMKs) [102][103], carbon nanotubes [104], and carbon nanofibers [105]. The choice of template is crucial for the final material, since the mesoporous zeolites essentially become replicas of the carbon pore system in which they grow. For example, with carbon black, the resulting pores will be

On the other hand, silica films consisted of a network of interwoven nanofibers were also reported as produced by flame spray pyrolysis of organometallic solutions with the deposition and annealing temperature of silica in the range from 500 to 800 °C [12]. However, these conventional

Our theoretical research methodology consists of four main steps schematically depicted in Figure 11. First, the available experimental data, including available X-ray structural data
  • the A–B system 6 in the native state of the peptide. In principle both parts of this hybrid molecule (thiophene part and peptide part) may be capable of strong intermolecular interactions, thus leading to the formation of highly anisotropic structures such as nanofibers, nanorods, etc. However, the IR
  • spectroscopic data for the compound under study revealed that the β-sheet structure formation was at least involved in the self-assembly mechanism of our nanofibers. While the formation of fibers at the nanometer scale (especially amyloid-like fibers) from separate peptide moieties due to β-sheet aggregation is
