MocR/GabR family proteins are widely distributed prokaryotic transcriptional regulators containing pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), a coenzyme form of vitamin B6. The Bacillus subtilis GabR, probably the most extensively studied MocR/GabR family protein, consists of an N-terminal DNA-binding domain and a PLP-binding C-te…

We have developed a fast, easy, and scalable synthesis method for Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe2As2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) superconductors using hydrides BaH2 and KH as a source of barium and potassium metals. Synthesis from hydrides provides better mixing and easier handling of the starting materials, consequently leading to faster reactions a…

The interactions of the d electrons of transition-metal aqua ions with the solvent are usually divided in short-range electronic interactions with ligand water molecules and long-range electrostatic interactions with molecules beyond the first coordination shell. This is the rationale behind the cluster continuum and…

Ultrasmall silicon (Si) nanoelectronic devices require an energy shift of electronic states for n‐ and p‐conductivity. Nanocrystal self‐purification and out‐diffusion in field effect transistors cause doping to fail. Here, it is shown that silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) and silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) create energy offsets…

A high strain is important for practical applications of piezoelectric actuators. Here we reported a high strain in the (K,Na)NbO3 -based ceramics by doping alkaline earths or transition metals. The ceramics possess a high strain (∼0.29%) as well as a large converse piezoelectric coefficient (d33*) up to 688 pm/V, whi…

Deposition of IRMOF-8 thin films by atomic layer deposition was studied at 260–320 °C. Zinc acetate and 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid were used as the precursors. The as-deposited amorphous films were crystallized in 70% relative humidity at room temperature resulting in an unknown phase with a large unit cell. An…

Copper sulfide is a simple binary material with promising attributes for low-cost thin film photovoltaics. However, stable Cu2S-based device efficiencies approaching 10% free from cadmium have yet to be realized. In this Letter, transient absorption spectroscopy is used to investigate the dynamics of the photoexcited…

Here, we show that chemical vapor deposition growth of graphene on copper foil is strongly affected by the cooling conditions. Variation of cooling conditions such as cooling rate and hydrocarbon concentration in the cooling step has yielded graphene islands with different sizes, density of nuclei, and growth rates. T…
