Summary: The research investigated the structural changes of mesoporous silica-anatase hybrids containing different titania contents after heat treatment, revealing that heat treatment can cause the collapse of mesostructure and phase transformation of anatase. However, the resulting hybrids showed high efficiency in photocatalytic decomposition of benzene even after heat treatment.

Summary: In this paper, non-volatile memory resistive switching (RS) devices with mesoporous silica-titania (meso-ST) and mesoporous titania (meso-T) layers were fabricated and analyzed for their analog memristive characteristics using lateral electrodes. The experimental results showed successful long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) in the RS active mesoporous layers, unlike conventional metal electroforming. The devices also exhibited high performance synaptic operations and rectifying characteristics, which make them a potential candidate for neuromorphic electronics platforms.

Summary: The design of functional coatings for touchscreens and haptic interfaces is crucial in electronic devices. This study developed photoactivated anti-fingerprint coatings by incorporating 2D-SnSe2 nanoflakes into ordered mesoporous titania thin films. The resulting heterostructures showed enhanced ability to remove fingerprints and improved photocatalytic activity. The addition of SnSe2 did not affect the self-assembly process and the three-dimensional pore structure of the films. Furthermore, exposure of the films to sunlight and UV light completely eliminated fingerprints, suggesting potential applications in self-cleaning mechanisms.

Summary: The photocatalytic activity of iron-grafted mesoporous Pt/TiO2 catalysts for hydrogen production from water-ethanol mixtures was investigated. Results showed that Fe is primarily located on the catalyst surfaces as Fe2O3 and does not dope the TiO2 structure. The catalyst with the lowest iron content exhibited the highest activity for ethanol dehydrogenation, attributed to the higher surface dispersion of Fe and efficient formation of a surface heterojunction between Fe2O3 and TiO2 that favors charge separation.

Summary: Mesoporous materials show great potential for biotechnological applications due to their high surface area, pore interconnection, and ability for controlled molecule delivery. Functionalized thin films of mesoporous silica and titania offer diverse properties, such as cell growth promotion, biofilm inhibition, and sensor development. Incorporation of these materials into devices with tailored architecture and functionalization can result in advanced micro devices that combine standard micro/nanofluids with functional materials.

Summary: In this study, SiO2@TiO2 spheres were synthesized using chitosan as a template, and their catalytic performance in selective photocatalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde and reduction of nitrobenzene to aniline reactions was investigated. The spheres showed predominantly macroporous structure and amorphous crystallographic profile indicating the uniform distribution of TiO2. Under low-power lighting for 4 hours, the conversions achieved were 49% and 99% for benzyl alcohol and nitrobenzene, respectively, with selectivity to benzaldehyde and aniline of 99% in both reactions.

Summary: Novel emulsification was observed in an aqueous clay mineral suspension (synthetic hectorite) and a solution of polyvinyl butyral in 1-butanol without the use of surfactants. The size of the oil droplets depended on the concentration of polyvinyl butyral solution and aqueous clay suspension. The high viscosity of the clay suspension resulted in shearing forces that led to smaller oil droplets. The clay mineral was found to be in the water phase, not at the oil-water interface. The emulsion exhibited thermal stability up to 80 degrees C and was successfully used as a platform for the photochromic reaction of spiropyran.

Summary: In order to maximize the surface-to-body ratio, it is necessary to use smaller metallic palladium nanoparticles for catalytic applications. However, if the supported palladium is below a critical size, the hybridization with the supporting material can decrease the labile electrons that are crucial for catalytic reactions. It has been demonstrated that palladium with at least six atomic layers on silicate sheets exhibits a metallic-like electronic property, resulting in excellent catalytic activity compared to isotropic palladium nanoparticles and single-atom palladium.

Summary: To achieve high photoluminescence quantum yield, a hybrid material consisting of a thermally activated delayed fluorescent dye and an organophilic layered silicate was synthesized. The molecular conformation and flexible assembly of the dye in the silicate allowed efficient utilization of the dye's excited state transitions and suppressed concentration quenching. Moreover, the presence of the organophilic silicate protected the dye's triplet state from oxygen, resulting in increased photoluminescence quantum yield.

Summary: Green H2 generation through layered materials, such as layered titanates, plays a significant role in (photo)catalysis due to their high theoretical surface area. In this study, exfoliated few-layer sheets of titanate were successfully obtained by dilute HCl treatment without organic exfoliating agents. Sn single atoms were then loaded onto the exfoliated titanate, resulting in enhanced photocatalytic activity for H2 evolution. The optimized Sn-loaded exfoliated titanate exhibited better performance than conventional TiO2-based photocatalysts.

Summary: Anatase/silica core/shell particles were prepared with varying sizes (9, 22, and 111 nm) by coating tetraethyl orthosilicate on anatase particles. The thickness of the silica layer was controlled by repeating the coating procedure. The presence of silica coating inhibited the transformation of anatase to rutile and suppressed crystal growth of titania. The heated products could be dissolved to obtain size-controlled anatase and rutile particles.

Summary: NiFe layered double hydroxides (LDHs) intercalated with dioctyl sulfosuccinate were prepared by co-precipitation, and the intercalated anion was exchanged with carbonate. The basal spacing of the LDHs varied depending on the Fe3+/(Ni2+ + Fe3+) ratio, with larger spacing achieved at smaller ratios. This indicates that the Fe3+/(Ni2+ + Fe3+) ratios are associated with the layer charge density of NiFe-LDHs.

Summary: In this study, the influence of transition metal doping on the electronic and mechanical properties and electrochemical performance of 2HMoS2/NC was investigated using Cobalt (Co) as an example. Co doping was found to effectively improve the electronic conductivity and active site areas of 2H-MoS2/NC at different positions, optimizing the adsorption and diffusion capability of potassium ions. Furthermore, the study revealed the optimal roles of different types of nitrogen atoms in kinetic adsorption, diffusion, and interfacial stability of potassium ions. These findings provide guidance for the experimental design of high rate 2H-MoS2/NC electrode materials and the optimal design of other functional composite materials.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
