Histidine-containing peptides self-assemble on the surface of monolayer protected gold nanoparticles to form a catalytic system for transesterification reactions. Self-assembly is a prerequisite for catalysis, since the isolated peptides do not display catalytic activity by themselves. A series of catalytic peptides a…

We have designed ultra-thin graphene microwave transistors by using pre-patterned metal or graphene nanoribbon back-gates and hexagonal boron nitride as a dielectric substrate. Despite the inhomogeneities induced by the graphene transfer process, we show that it is possible to operate these types of devices across a b…

Abstract The thermal diffusivities of ZrB 2 –SiC (10.7, 21.9, or 48.7 vol% SiC) with B 4 C sintering aid were measured over 25–2000 °C using laser flash. The composition with the highest SiC showed the highest thermal conductivity ( k ) at 25 °C, but the lowest above ≈400 °C, because of the greater k temperature sensi…
