Spectroscopic study of emergent electronic phases in transition metal based compounds
… nearly vanishing stray fields. Achieving voltage-based control of spin polarization in antiferromagnets is of great interest for realizing energy-efficient and compact devices for information storage and processing. Spin spiral type-II multiferroics exhibit an inversion-symmetry-breaking …

Theoretical Investigations of the Electronic, Magnetic, and Thermoelectric Properties of Transition-Metal Based Compounds
… and thermoelectric properties of transition-metal based compounds were investigated by using the density functional theory and Boltzmann transport formalism. It was found that the Co-based Heusler compounds and InSe monochalcogenide are among the materials that may be used for future …

Synthesis and Stability Studies of Novel Tellurium(IV) Compounds
Metal-based compounds play a fundamental role in inorganic medicinal chemistry and the most important anticancer agents, approved worldwide as chemotherapeutic drugs, contain metals as the active component (i.e. platinum in cisplatin). Several examples of metal containing anticancer drugs are …

Fundamental understanding and materials design approaches for lithium-oxygen electrochemical energy storage
… vehicle and grid-scale applications. Systems based on oxygen electrochemistry are promising due to the relatively high potentials (~ 3 V vs. Li) of Li-oxygen redox couples, which can enable high energy to be stored in the absence of heavy and expensive transition metal-based compounds used in …

Optimized Peptide Nanomaterials as Delivery Vehicles for Hydrophobic Metal-Based Anticancer Agents
… can be utilized as delivery vehicles for metal-based hydrophobic payloads. The tunability of the system is highlighted as well as the increase in cytotoxicity and selectivity in vitro. The rapid degradation of peptides in cell media may lead to the formation of new peptide-drug …

Synthesis, characterisation and pharmacological evaluation of silicon-containing aminoquinoline organometallic complexes as antiplasmodial, antitumor and antimycobacterial agents
The medical success of platinum-based compounds such as cisplatin and its analogues laid the foundation for the synthesis and application of new transition metal complexes in the field of medicine. With the discovery of additional transition metal-based compounds such as ferroquine, KP1019 and …

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of bioorganometallic metallarectangles
… treatment has largely depended on platinum-based drugs (e.g. cisplatin and its derivatives). Unfortunately, the use of these metallodrugs are accompanied by severe adverse side-effects. Additionally, the evolution of resistant cancer cell sub-types has rendered many of these highly …

Stimuli-responsive microcapsules for self-protecting and self-healing material systems
… research, an emulsification technique is adapted based on the interfacial tension of immiscible phases for the fabrication of monodisperse emulsion templates and microcapsules. In this technique, either one (single emulsion) or two (double emulsion) dispersed phases are simultaneously delivered …
