Graphene segregated on Ni surfaces and transferred to insulators

We report an approach to synthesize high quality graphene by surface segregation and substrate transfer. Graphene was segregated from Ni surface under the ambient pressure by di...

Silica Nanoparticle Size Influences the Structure and Enzymatic Activity of Adsorbed Lysozyme

Adsorption of chicken egg lysozyme on silica nanoparticles of various diameters has been studied. Special attention has been paid to the effect of nanoparticle size on the struc...
