Synthesis of calcium carbonate in trace water environments
Giulia Magnabosco, Iryna Polishchuk, Boaz Pokroy +3
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) was synthesized from diverse water-free alcohol solutions, resulting in the formation of vaterite and calcite precipitates, or stable particle supensions,…
Hybrid gold single crystals incorporating amino acids
Linfeng Chen, Iryna Polishchuk, Eva Weber +2
Here we report on the formation of hybrid organic-metal composites via the incorporation of selected amino acids into the crystal lattice of single crystals of gold. We used electr…
Morphology preserving solid-to-solid transformation of minerals mediated by a self-assembled temperature responsive polymer membrane: calcite to hydroxyapatite
Anders C. S. Jensena, Anastasia Brif, Boaz Pokroy +2
Assemblies of nanocrystals with complex morphologies have solicited great scientific interest. Controlling the formation of these self-assembled structures has proved difficult. He…
Additives Influence the Phase Behavior of Calcium Car-bonate Solution by a Cooperative Ion-association Process
Zhaoyong Zou, Iryna Polishchuk, Luca Bertinetti +4
Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) has been widely found in biomineralization, both as a transient precursor and a stable phase, but how organisms accurately control its formation a…
Hybrid gold single crystals incorporating amino acids
Linfeng Chen, Iryna Polishchuk, Eva Weber +2
Composite hybrid gold crystals are of profound interest in various research areas ranging from materials science to biology. Their importance is due to their unique properties and…
