Apparatus for dispensing material

Patent Sutter, Peter; Sutter, Eli

An apparatus capable of dispensing drops of material with volumes on the order of zeptoliters is described. In some embodiments of the inventive pipette the size of the droplets so dispensed is determined by the size of a hole, or channel, through a carbon shell encapsulating a reservoir that contains material to be dispensed. The channel may be formed by irradiation with an electron beam or other high-energy beam capable of focusing to a spot size less than about 5 nanometers. In some embodiments, the dispensed droplet remains attached to the pipette by a small thread of material, an atomicmore »« less

Nanocrystal doped matrixes

Patent Parce, J; Bernatis, Paul; Dubrow, Robert; ...

Matrixes doped with semiconductor nanocrystals are provided. In certain embodiments, the semiconductor nanocrystals have a size and composition such that they absorb or emit light at particular wavelengths. The nanocrystals can comprise ligands that allow for mixing with various matrix materials, including polymers, such that a minimal portion of light is scattered by the matrixes. The matrixes of the present invention can also be utilized in refractive index matching applications. In other embodiments, semiconductor nanocrystals are embedded within matrixes to form a nanocrystal density gradient, thereby creating an effective refractive index gradient. The matrixes of the present invention can alsomore »« less

Pulsed anodic arc discharge for the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials

Journal Article Corbella, Carles; Portal, Sabine; Zolotukhin, Denis; ... - Plasma Sources Science and Technology

Pulsed arc discharges can improve arc control and tailor the ablation process in the production of 1D and 2D nanostructures from carbon anodes. In this work, low-dimensional carbon nanoparticles have been generated by means of anodic arc discharge in helium atmosphere excited with a square-wave modulated signal (1–5 Hz, 10% duty cycle). The discharges were performed between two graphite electrodes with maximal peak current of 250 A and maximal voltage of 65 V. The erosion rates and conversion efficiency of the ablated anode are compared to reference samples grown in DC steady arc mode. Ablation rates in pulsed arcs aremore »« less

Nitride stabilized core/shell nanoparticles

Patent Kuttiyiel, Kurian; Sasaki, Kotaro; Adzic, Radoslav

Nitride stabilized metal nanoparticles and methods for their manufacture are disclosed. In one embodiment the metal nanoparticles have a continuous and nonporous noble metal shell with a nitride-stabilized non-noble metal core. The nitride-stabilized core provides a stabilizing effect under high oxidizing conditions suppressing the noble metal dissolution during potential cycling. The nitride stabilized nanoparticles may be fabricated by a process in which a core is coated with a shell layer that encapsulates the entire core. Introduction of nitrogen into the core by annealing produces metal nitride(s) that are less susceptible to dissolution during potential cycling under high oxidizing conditions.
