Nonequilibrium charge dynamics, such as cooling-rate-dependent charge vitrification and physical aging, have been demonstrated for a charge-cluster glass in $\ensuremath{\theta}$-(BEDT-TTF)${}_{2}$CsZn(SCN)${}_{4}$ using electron transport measurements. The temperature evolution of the relaxation time obeys the Arrhen…
Magnetic exchange is an essential feature of transition‐metal nanomagnets because it combines the relatively low spin‐only moments of several ions into a “giant spin” ground state, which can make slow magnetic relaxation very favorable in an axially anisotropic environment. In contrast, most of the early research on l…
The purpose of this study is to advance understanding of surface degradation kinetics for Fe-Mn bioresorbable alloys (specifically Fe-20%Mn) and target degradable fracture fixation implants for hard tissues. This study addresses how arc melted Fe-20%Mn discs degrade in a static, osteogenic medium for up to a 3 month t…
In-situ bright field transmission electron microscopy (TEM) nanomechanical tensile testing and in-situ automated crystallographic orientation mapping in TEM were combined to unravel the elementary mechanisms controlling the plasticity of ultrafine grained Aluminum freestanding thin films. The characterizations demonst…
We address the problem of persistent charge and spin currents on a Corbino disk built from a graphene sheet. We consistently derive the Hamiltonian including kinetic, intrinsic (ISO), and Rashba spin-orbit interactions in cylindrical coordinates. The Hamiltonian is carefully considered to reflect hermiticity and covar…
The differences in phase behavior of anionic silica nanoparticles (88 Å) in the presence of two globular proteins [cationic lysozyme (molecular weight (MW) 14.7 kD) and anionic bovine serum albumin (BSA) (MW 66.4 kD)] have been studied by small-angle neutron scattering. The measurements were carried out on a fixed con…
A series of fluorene-based grid molecules (so-called Grid fluorenes) have been synthesized by means of shape-supported cyclization, starting from H-shaped precursors via the alternative Friedel-Crafts reactions of fluorenols and Suzuki cross-coupling reactions with key cyclization yields up to 26%. Fluorenol approache…
One‐dimensional (1D) mesoporous ternary Co–Ni–Mn oxide nanowires (CNMO NWs) have been controllably fabricated via a facile yet scalable template‐free strategy involving a green hydrothermal route coupled with the following calcination. The composition of the reaction solvent system, i.e., the volume ratio of the ethyl…
Experimental doping of VO2 with hydrogen has been shown to trigger the semiconductor-to-metal phase transition below room temperature. Here, we report the results of density functional calculations showing that hydrogen-induced lattice distortion stabilizes the metallic phase. We also show that hydrogen diffuses prefe…
Injectable scaffolds (IS) are polymeric solutions that are injected in vivo and undergo gelation in response to physiological or non-physiological stimuli. Interest in using IS in regenerative medicine has been increasing this past decade. IS are administered in vivo using minimally invasive surgery, which reduces hos…
A new bottom-up procedure for constructing non-conservative (dissipative and stochastic) interactions for dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) models is described and applied to perform hierarchical coarse-graining of a polar molecular liquid (nitromethane). The distant-dependent radial and shear frictions in functiona…
The primary goal of this work was to develop a novel adhesive technology platform for oriented strand board (OSB) using waste animal protein extracts, as feedstock. In this research, a hazardous animal processing waste was thermally hydrolyzed, and the proteinaceous fractions were recovered and modified into an adhesi…
Lightweight complex metal hydrides pose a challenge for experimental insight because of the lack of long-range order in the nanoconfined state or in intermediate phases. Understanding of the atomic scale properties might be the key to the utilization of complex hydrides in applications for versatile hydrogen storage.…
The microstructural evolution of hot-deformed Nd-Fe-B magnets in each stage of hot-deformation process was studied using transmission electron microscopy and three dimensional atom probe (3DAP). The anisotropic growth of initially isotropic grains in rapidly solidified alloy occurs by annealing without pressing. 3DAP…
Identifying and characterizing the parent phases of iron-based superconductors is an important step towards understanding the mechanism for their high-temperature superconductivity. We present an investigation into the magnetic interactions in the Mott insulator La${}_{2}$O${}_{2}$Fe${}_{2}$OSe${}_{2}$. This iron oxys…
The recently developed in-column monochromators make it possible to record energy-c spectra with resolutions better than 30 meV from nanometer-sized regions. It should therefore in principle be possible to detect localized vibrational excitations. The scattering geometry in the electron microscope means that bond stre…
As an effort to create the next generation of improved skin graft materials, in this study, we modified the surfaces of a previously investigated material, silk fibroin, using a NaOH alkaline treatment to obtain a biologically inspired nanofeatured surface morphology. Such surfaces were characterized for roughness, en…
Frequency independent fast-wave (FW) propagation with phase velocity greater than the speed of light can be ideally realized in a dielectric medium whose relative permittivity is positive, but less than 1. Conventionally, FW propagation is implemented by non-TEM waveguides or antiresonance-based metamaterials, which s…
Graphene oxide (GO) enriched in oxygen functionalities is limited in optoelectronic application because of its poor optical behavior. One of the major strategies for developing the optical properties of GO is functionalization. Here, GO sheets are functionalized by aminoazobenzene to achieve an intercalated type struc…
Silicon (Si) nanoparticles (NPs) and self-organized high spatial frequency laser (HSFL) induced periodic surface structures were fabricated by means of femtosecond ablation of bulk Si target in acetone. The ablation was performed with ∼40 fs (fwhm) pulses and different input energies of ∼500, ∼200, ∼150, ∼100, ∼50, an…
