Nonthermal plasmas generate high concentrations of excited species that can simultaneously exist at high energy and far from thermodynamic equilibrium, making them useful tools in chemistry and engineering. Microplasmas, roughly defined as plasmas that are generated within sub-millimeter dimensions, provide enhanced stability, improved excited species density, increased nonequilibrium properties, higher...
A novel method of copper indium diselenide nanoparticle
(CuInSe₂ NP) synthesis using a two-step, continuous flow,
solar microreactor is reported here. This method allows for
exceedingly fast heating and short reaction times using only
radiative heat transfer from simulated, concentrated solar
radiation. Chalcopyrite and sphalerite CuInSe₂ phases have
both been...
The role of gold nanoparticles supported on ZnO in photocatalytic activity for dye degradation
was investigated. To do this, gold nanoparticles supported on ZnO (Au-ZnO) were prepared using a
simple co-precipitation method. The prepared nanocatalyst was characterized by high resolution
transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, temperature programmed reduction, X-ray
photoelectron...
The reaction conditions for the synthesis of Cu-BTC (BTC = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid) were elucidated using a continuous-flow microreactor-assisted solvothermal system to achieve crystal size and phase control. A high-rate synthesis of Cu-BTC metal-organic frameworks with BET surface area of more than 1600 m²/g (Langmuir surface area of more than 2000...

Combined plasmonic nanocrystals and metal–organic framework
thin-films are fabricated for sensing gases in the near-infrared
range. This nanocomposite thin-film shows a highly sensitive response
in near-infrared absorption, which is attributed to preconcentration
of gas molecules in metal–organic framework pores causing close
proximity to the electromagnetic fields at the plasmonic nanocrystal...

Private set intersection (PSI) allows two parties, who each hold a set of items, to compute the intersection of those sets without revealing anything about other items. Recent advances in PSI have significantly improved its performance for the case of semi-honest security, making semi-honest PSI a practical alternative to insecure...
