The trade-off between photobrightening and photobleaching controls the emission stability of colloidal quantum dots. This balance is critical in optical trapping configurations, where irradiances that confine and simultaneously excite the nanocrystals in the focal region cannot be indefinitely lowered. In this work, w…

Ceruloplasmin (Cp) is one of the most complex multicopper oxidase enzymes and plays an essential role in the metabolism of iron in mammals. Ferrous ion supplied by the ferroportin exporter is converted by Cp to ferric ion that is accepted by plasma metallo-chaperone transferrin. Study of the enzyme at the atomic and m…

The liquid Zr100-xSix (x = 1, 3, and 5) alloys were substantially undercooled by up to 392 K (0.19TL), 423 K (0.21TL), and 451 K (0.23TL), respectively, under the electrostatic levitation condition. The measured dendrite growth velocity of the primary βZr phase increased with the enhancement of liquid undercooling. Al…

We constructed an effective tight-binding model with five Cr $3d$ orbitals for LaOCrAs according to first-principles calculations. Based on this model, we investigated possible superconductivity induced by interactions in doped LaOCrAs using the functional renormalization group (FRG). We find that there are two domes…

We measure linear absorption, circular dichroism, second harmonic, and sum frequency generation in the [Δ-Fe(phen)3](Δ-As2(tartarate)2), [Λ-Fe(phen)3](Λ-As2(tartarate)2) enantiomers of an Fe(II) complex. In the solid state, the chirality of this compound results from the introduction of the (As2(tartarate)2) chiral an…

We treat fundamental resonance effects in hybridized metal–dielectric elements that may find applications in absorption, sensing, and displays. The hybrid structures support guided-mode resonance (GMR) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) operating independently or in unison. Numerical simulations of periodic resonant…

Metallacrown complexes capable of sequestering dianions, as shown in the solid state, also exist in aqueous solution at neutral pH, as demonstrated by calorimetric and mass spectrometric data. The driving forces for the formation of these dimeric complexes in solution strongly depend on the chain length of the guest r…

Abstract Materials for CO 2 capture have been extensively exploited for climate governance and gas separation. However, their regeneration is facing the problems of high energy cost and secondary CO 2 contamination. Herein, a reversed photosynthesis‐like process is proposed, in which CO 2 is absorbed in darkness while…
