Nanocellulose has potential as a reinforcing agent to improve stiffness and strength in polymer fiber; however, the inherent difference in hydrophilicity makes it challenging to incorporate it into nonhydrophilic polymers, and the composite properties are strongly anisotropic. In the present work, a dual approach was…
Functional materials with specific bubble wettability play an important role in manipulating the behavior of underwater gas bubbles. Inspired by the natural Pitcher plant, we designed a large area lubricated slippery surface (LSS) by femtosecond laser processing for buoyancy-driven bubble self-transport and efficient…
Superelastic NiTi wires were prepared from a single cold worked wire by various electropulse heat treatments. The wires having a wide range of virgin microstructures were subjected to tensile tests until rupture and cyclic superelastic tensile testing in a wide temperature range. The results were complemented by TEM o…
Abstract The hasty progress in smart, portable, flexible, and transparent integrated electronics and optoelectronics is currently one of the driving forces in nanoscience and nanotechnology. A promising approach is the combination of transparent conducting electrode materials (e.g., silver nanowires, AgNWs) and upconv…
Abstract The vacancy distribution of oxygen and its dynamics directly affect the functional response of complex oxides and their potential applications. Dynamic control of the oxygen composition may provide the possibility to deterministically tune the physical properties and establish a comprehensive understanding of…
Abstract A deficiency of Ga in wide band‐gap AgGa 1‐ x Te 2 semiconductors (1.2 eV) can be used to optimize the electrical transport properties and reduce the thermal conductivity to achieve ZT > 1 at 873 K. First‐principles density functional theory calculations and a Boson peak observed in the low temperature hea…
Acquiring multilayer information on diverse biomarkers with different spatial distributions at the cellular level is crucial for monitoring the progression of cancers. Herein, a dual-signal-tagged chimeric DNA-functionalized titanium carbide MXenes nanoprobe (dcDNA–Ti 3 C 2 ) that responds to biomarkers with different…
bulk crystals grown by the Czochralski method. In particular, we observe a wavelength shift of the highest-energy UV emission which is dependent on the pump photon energy and polarization. For 240 nm (5.17 eV) excitation almost no shift of the UV emission is observed between E||b and E||c, while a shift of the UV emis…
Relatively slow degradation rate and delayed osseointegration induced by excessive release of Zn 2+ ions are two main disadvantages of the use of pure Zn ion bioabsorbable orthopedic implants. In light of this, we designed a cathodic protection strategy by incorporating Mg, acting as a sacrificial anode, into Zn to fo…
The effect of an external in-plane electric field on neutral and charged exciton states in two-dimensional (2D) materials is theoretically investigated. These states are argued to be strongly bound, so that electron-hole dissociation is not observed up to high electric field intensities. Trions in the anisotropic case…
Machine learning models are changing the paradigm of molecular modeling, which is a fundamental tool for material science, chemistry, and computational biology. Of particular interest is the inter-atomic potential energy surface (PES). Here we develop Deep Potential - Smooth Edition (DeepPot-SE), an end-to-end machine…
Atomic vibrations control all thermally activated processes in materials including diffusion, heat transport, phase transformations, and surface chemistry. Recent developments in monochromated, aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) have enabled nanoscale probing of vibrational modes usi…
Gas sensing mechanism of H2S, NH3, NO2 and NO toxic gases on transition metal dichalcogenides based Janus MoSSe monolayers are investigated using the density functional theory. The pristine and defect included MoSSe layers are considered as a host material for adsorption study. Three types of defects (i) molybdenum va…
Propagating atomic vibrational waves, phonons, rule important thermal, mechanical, optoelectronic and transport characteristics of materials. Thus the knowledge of phonon dispersion, namely the dependence of vibrational energy on momentum is a key ingredient to understand and optimize the material's behavior. However,…
The nudged elastic band (NEB) method is a commonly used approach for the calculation of minimum energy pathways of kinetic processes. However, the final paths obtained rely heavily on the nature of the initially chosen path. This often necessitates running multiple calculations with differing starting points in order…
We report the finding of the analogous valley Hall effect in phononic systems arising from mirror symmetry breaking, in addition to spatial inversion symmetry breaking. We study topological phases of plates and spring-mass models in Kagome and modified Kagome arrangements. By breaking the inversion symmetry it is well…
Materials exhibiting reversible resistive switching in electrical fields are highly demanded for functional elements in oxide electronics. In particular, multilevel switching effects allow for advanced applications like neuromorphic circuits. Here we report on a structurally driven switching mechanism involving the so…
We propose a kind of Ginzburg--Landau equation with quenched randomness. There is a pinning--depinning transition in the system when the external magnetic force is changed. The transition is self-organized when the external magnetic field is slowly changed under the demagnetizing effect. The total magnetization increa…
In periodic media, despite the close relationship between geometrical effects in the bulk and topological surface states, the two are typically probed separately. We show that when beams in a Weyl medium reflect off an interface with a gapped medium, the trajectory is influenced by both bulk geometrical effects and th…
Two-dimensional crystals of semi-metallic van der Waals materials hold much potential for the realization of novel phases, as exemplified by the recent discoveries of a polar metal in few-layer 1T′-WTe 2 and of a quantum spin Hall state in monolayers of the same material. Understanding these phases is particularly cha…
