The hydrophobic tails of these molecules cluster together to form a core, while the hydrophilic heads face outward, creating a protective shell. This structure allows micelles to encapsulate ...

The CSR structure, composed of a flexible core and a rigid shell, acted as an effective toughening agent. ZnO nanoparticles further improved strength, modulus, and thermal performance. A two-step ...

Carriers are generated in the Si shell of the nanowires, introduced into the Ge core. Because carrier mobility is higher in the Ge layer than in the Si layer, this nanowire structure increases carrier ...
