Using computational modeling, we investigate the mechanical properties of polymeric materials composed of coiled chains, or "globules", which encompass a folded secondary structure and are cross-linked by labile bonds to form a macroscopic network. In the presence of an applied force, the globules can unfold into line…

Under laser irradiation, the atomic force microscope (AFM) tip can give rise to strong near-field scattering and focusing, leading to strong heating of the tip itself. We report a systematic study of laser heating of an ordinary AFM silicon tip under lateral laser irradiation with micrometer spatial resolution. The te…

The direct correlation function (DCF) plays an important role in liquid integral-equation theories and non-mean-field applications of the classical density functional theory (DFT). While for a simple fluid the DCF can easily be calculated from the radial distribution function via the Fourier transform and/or, for spec…

Nano-graphene ribbons are promising in many electronic applications, as their bandgaps can be opened by reducing the widths, e.g. below 20 nm. However, a high-throughput method to pattern large-area nano-graphene features is still not available. Here we report a fabrication method of sub-20 nm ribbons on graphite stam…

Periodic arrays of organosilane nanostructures were prepared with particle lithography to define sites for selective adsorption of functionalized gold nanoparticles. Essentially, the approach for nanoparticle lithography consists of procedures with two masks. First, latex mesospheres were used as a surface mask for de…

Plasmon excitation appears to be a powerful and flexible tool for probing in situ and in real time the growth of supported conducting metal nanoparticles. However, although models exist for analysing optical profiles, limitations arise in the realistic modelling of particle shape from the lack of knowledge of temperat…

The corrosion inhibition of copper-nickel alloy by benzotriazole (BTA) in 1.5 M HCl has been investigated by weight loss and polarization techniques at different temperatures. Maximum value of inhibitor efficiency was 99.8% at 35°C and 0.1 M inhibitor concentration, while the lower value was 86.3% at 65°C and 0.02 M i…

Abstract Soot oxidation with NO (in the absence of gas phase O 2 ) on potassium‐supported Mg‐Al hydrotalcite mixed oxides (K/MgAlO) was studied using a temperature‐programmed reaction and in situ FTIR techniques. Nitrite and the ketene group were identified as the reaction intermediates and thus a nitrite‐ketene mecha…

In proteins, the Mössbauer effect and neutron scattering show a broad line and a rapid increase of the conformational mean-square displacement above about 180 K. The increase, dubbed the "dynamical transition," is controversial. We introduce a new interpretation of the Mössbauer effect in proteins and demonstrate that…
