Mid-frequency waviness and subsurface crack are two fundamental factors that damage KH(2)PO(4) (KDP) crystal processed by ultraprecise fly cutting. In this paper, the motif theory and the Fourier model method are used to analyze the influence of the two factors on the laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of KDP. Rese…

The effect of external strain on the evolution of magnetic multi-vortices in nanoscale ferromagnetic platelets is investigated by a phase field model that explicitly includes the coupling between the magnetization and deformation. Phase field simulations show that a compressive strain makes the magnetic vortex-antivor…

The histidine triad proteins (HITs) constitute a large and ubiquitous superfamily of nucleotide hydrolases. The human histidine triad nucleotide-binding proteins (hHints) are a distinct class of HITs noted for their acyl-AMP hydrolase and phosphoramidase activity. The first high-resolution crystal structures of hHint2…
