Summary: The study presents a strategy to fabricate a nanostructure composed of superparamagnetic thin films, by depositing ruthenium-doped iron oxide thin films using atomic layer deposition at different temperatures. The doping of ruthenium helps to lower the formation temperature of hematite, resulting in nano-crystalline hematite structure with superparamagnetic behavior observed in the films.

Summary: This study presents a technique for the formation of an rGO film on copper using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) and flash sintering. By varying the pulse energy, the reduction of a GO film to an rGO film was successfully achieved, resulting in a mesoporous film with high surface area. The rGO film showed restored electrical conductivity and exhibited a specific capacitance suitable for supercapacitor applications.

Summary: Bioactive glass-zirconia core-shell spherical nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using sol-gel and sonochemical methods and coated on Ti6Al4V substrate to enhance the implant-tissue interface. The application of dopamine as a surface treatment agent, cathodic electrophoretic deposition, and polyethyleneimine improved the adhesion between the coating and substrate. The presence of core-shell nanoparticles helped overcome the challenges in simultaneous deposition of zirconia and bioactive glass nanoparticles.

Summary: A dual-targeting nanomedicine composed of pH-sensitive superparamagnetic iron oxide core-gold shell SPION@Au, chitosan (CS), and folate (FA) was developed for doxorubicin (DOX) antitumor medication. The nanocomposite exhibited elevated drug loading behavior and sustained drug release capacity, with long-term anti-cancer efficacy shown in SkBr3 cell lines. In vivo results demonstrated significant tumor size reduction in treated mice, indicating the potential of this formulation for clinical breast cancer treatment.

Summary: The study focuses on creating monodisperse magnetic particles by depositing a magnetite layer on the surface of silica particles using a low-temperature electroless deposition technique. This technique, scalable and suitable for mass production, can be applied to a wide range of inorganic materials or polymer particles. The resulting SiO2@Fe3O4 core/shell particle is responsive to magnetic fields and shows promise for applications in magnetorheological fluids.

Summary: This study developed a facile synthetic route for reusable nanocatalysts based on the combination of magnetite's supermagnetic properties with the unique optical and catalytic properties of noble metal hybrid nanomaterials. Compared two synthetic methods, thermal decomposition and hydrothermal, for Fe3O4 and Fe3O4@M (M = Ag or Au) core-shell hybrid nanostructures synthesis. The hydrothermal method showed better crystalline structure and particle dispersion, as well as better catalytic performance for Fe3O4@Ag and Fe3O4@Au.

Summary: The rational fabrication of OER electrocatalysts using earth-abundant elements is important for sustainable energy applications. By creating a core-shell Co3O4@FeOx catalyst with an ultrathin FeOx coating, higher OER activity can be achieved due to the promotion of reaction, enhanced charge transfer ability, and accelerated diffusion attributed to the introduction of ultrathin FeOx.

Summary: In this study, a modified electrophoretic-induced self-assembly deposition (EPAD) technique was proposed to control the morphologies of organic functional materials. The EPAD approach can produce nanofiber structures under specific conditions, which are different from the nanopillar structures formed by conventional methods. Molecular dynamics simulations and density-functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to uncover the assembly process and the memory mechanism.

Summary: This study investigates the direct electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of thin-film Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9 (SDC) electrolyte on porous nonconductive NiO-BaCe0.8Sm0.2O3 (BCS) and NiO-SDC substrates. The addition of Co3O4, TiO2, and Al2O3 oxides in the suspensions improves the electrolyte sintering. The introduction of nanosized SDC powder into the suspensions achieves high zeta potential values for stable deposition. Dense composite electrolyte membranes are obtained after sintering, and the influence of sintering additives on the electrical properties of the films are studied.

Summary: In this study, the key factors affecting the uniformity, mass, thickness, and density of compacts made from nanopowders of solid solutions of yttrium and lanthanum oxides using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) were investigated. It was found that by adding acetylacetone to the nanopowder suspension and performing EPD in a vertical direction, compacts with high density can be obtained.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of different solvent ratios (hexane, toluene, and chloroform) on charge formation in EPD systems. The results show that increasing the ratio of toluene to hexane leads to thicker and rougher NP films, while increasing the ratio of chloroform to hexane reduces film thickness significantly. Solvent choice plays a key role in determining the morphology and processability of NP films fabricated via EPD.

Summary: The electrophoretic deposition of bioglass coatings reinforced with hydroxyapatite whiskers on anodized titanium substrates showed enhanced adhesion strength for fine bioglass particles, with no effect on microhardness and bioactivity. The introduction of titania nanotubes during anodizing process improved the bactericidal effect and cellular behavior of the coatings, while also reducing corrosion current density compared to bare titanium.

Summary: In this study, the optical and electrical stability of ZnO nanostructures were improved by depositing graphene flakes on the surface. The presence of graphene reduced the temperature dependence of the optical spectrum and minimized the decay of photocurrent at elevated temperatures. This suggests that graphene can be used as a transparent layer to enhance the stability of ZnO nanostructures.
