Many advanced concepts for high-efficiency photovoltaic devices exploit the peculiar optoelectronic properties of semiconductor nanostructures such as quantum wells, wires and dots. While the optics of such devices is only modestly affected due to the small size of the structures, the optical transitions and electroni…
Valley-based electronics, known as valleytronics, is one of the keys to break through to a new stage of electronics. The valley degree of freedom is ubiquitous in the honeycomb lattice system. The honeycomb lattice structure of silicon called silicene is an fascinating playground of valleytronics. We investigate topol…
The thermodynamics of a site-diluted ferromagnetic Heisenberg model for spin $S=1/2$ with interaction anisotropy in spin space is investigated. The study is aimed at presenting the magnetocaloric properties of such a model, including the entropy and temperature changes in magnetization/demagnetization processes, gener…
Simple application of the Einstein model combined with the elastic description of solid state is developed. The frequency of quantum oscillators has been assumed as volume dependent and, furthermore, elastic energy terms of static character have been included to complete the description. Such an extension enables to c…
We show here that the carrier mobility in the novel sp-sp(2) hybridization planar 6,6,12-graphyne sheet should be even larger than that in the graphene sheet. Both graphyne and graphene exhibit a Dirac cone structure near the Fermi surface. However, due to the sp-sp(2) hybridization forming the triple bonds in graphyn…
A series of [H3O]+[LnL4]−·nH2O complexes (n = 1–3, Ln = Nd, (1), Sm (2), Eu (3), Tb (4); HL = 3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-formylpyrazole-5-one) were synthesized and characterized. The structures of the SmIII and EuIII complexes were investigated by X-ray diffraction. The isostructutal crystalls 2 and 3 consist the tetrakis [L…
A biodegradable fibrous tube was fabricated by electrospinning method using a combination of Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and gelatin dissolved in trifluoroethanol (TFE). Different ratios of the two polymers (PLGA/Gelatin: 1/9, 3/7, 5/5) were used for electrospinning to determine the optimum condition appropri…
We describe here the facile synthesis (in two-steps) of green light emitting phenol polymer with an azomethine side group. For this purpose, hydroxy functionalized-Schiff base monomer , HPMBT , was obtained by condensation of 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde with 2-aminophenol. Subsequent oxidation of the monomer in alkal…
Glu-167 of triosephosphate isomerase from Trypanosoma brucei brucei (TbbTIM) acts as the base to deprotonate substrate to form an enediolate phosphate trianion intermediate. We report that there is a large ~6 pK unit increase in the basicity of the carboxylate side chain of Glu-167 upon binding of the inhibitor phosph…
A facile solution-phase route was developed to synthesize a family of monodisperse Cu2Ge(S(3-x)Se(x)) alloyed nanocrystals (NCs) with controlled composition across the entire range (0 ≤ x ≤ 3). The band gaps of the resultant NCs can be engineered by tuning the compositions with a nearly linear relationship between the…
We report the use of liquid crystal (LC)-in-water emulsions for the synthesis of either spherical or non-spherical particles with chemically distinct domains located at the poles of the particles. The approach involves the localization of solid colloids at topological defects that form predictably at surfaces of water…
Covalent or noncovalent linked polymers with stimuli-responsive properties have been well researched as a kind of advanced functional materials. However, little effort has been devoted to establishing a bridge for switching between covalent polymers and noncovalent polymers. Actually, such unitive system is promising…
A highly efficient nuclear transformation method was established for the pennate diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum using an electroporation system that drives multi-sequence pulses to introduce foreign DNAs into the cells. By optimizing pulse conditions, the diatom cells can be transformed without removing rigid silica…
The problem of finding the elastic strains arising due to the converse flexoelectric effect is solved for a case of uniformly polarized ball of isotropic dielectric material. The strains occurs due to the fact that, as shown in a previous paper, in presence of flexoelectricity elastic boundary condition has non-classi…
The present research work is focused on the effect of activation procedure on the hydrogen absorption-desorption properties of new rare earth transition metal compound based on Sm(Co0.6Fe0.2Zr0.16B0.04)7.5 composition. Crystal structure and composition is always connected to the maximum capacity of the intermetallic h…
The depth of scientific knowledge in physical metallurgy has enabled the development of a successful computational materials design methodology grounded in a system of fundamental databases. Expansion of the approach to embrace acceleration of the full development and qualification cycle has demonstrated flight of the…
We study inelastic collapse in a one-dimensional $N$-particle system when the system is driven from below under gravity. We investigate the hard-sphere limit of inelastic soft-sphere systems by numerical simulations to find how the collision rate per particle ${n}_{\mathrm{coll}}$ increases as a function of the elasti…
Antiferroelectric to ferroelectric phase transition induced by electric field is accompanied by large strain and significant hysteresis. The effects of barium addition on the electrical and dielectric properties of (Pb0·94−xLa0·04Bax)(Zr,Sn,Ti)O3 antiferroelectric ceramics were investigated, with the intention of redu…
In this study, nanocrystalline Ni0·64Zn0·36Fe2O4 powders were prepared using a planetary ball mill. The evolution of the microstructure and magnetic properties during the milling were studied by X-ray diffraction technique, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and vibrating sample magnetometr…
The ground state wave function of the neutral icosahedral C 60 and B 80 belong to the totally symmetric representation, where the HOMOs are fivefold degenerate and form the basis of the H u representation of the I h point group. Hence both C 60 + , and B 80 + are prone to a molecular distortion of the Jahn-Teller type…
