We report a first-principle study of the electronic and conduction properties of a quadruple-helix guanine wire (G4-wire), a DNA-derivative, with inner potassium ions. The analysis of the electronic structure highlights the presence of energy manifolds that are equivalent to the bands of (semi)conducting materials, an…

Abstract The first successful example of a polymer‐clay hybrid was nylon‐clay hybrid (NCH), which is a nano‐meter‐sized composite of nylon‐6 and 1‐nm‐thick exfoliated aluminosilicate layers of the clay mineral. NCH was found and developed at Toyota Central Research and Development Laboratories over 17 years ago. The N…

A higher-order shear-deformable beam model with gradient-dependent plasticity regularisation is presented in this work. The model takes into account a realistic non-linear variation of stresses and strains through the beam thickness. This enables mixed mode fracture analysis. Numerical results are presented for a mult…

Recently, we reported about successful synthesis of crystalline carbyne from graphite by step‐like shock‐wave compression. Thin graphite foil was placed into the recovery assembly between two thick PTFE dicks. Shock pressure was 36 GPa, shock temperature was estimated as 730 K. In the recovered samples the volume cont…

The phase equilibrium behavior of a typical colloidal dispersion by the van der Waals-like theory was studied. In this theory, the colloid–colloid potential is split into two parts: a repulsive part modeled by the hard-core potential and an attractive part modeled by the square-well potential corrected by a linear tai…

We observe, in free-standing films of a chiral smectic liquid crystal, a series of discrete transitions in the relative orientation of the tilt of the interior and surface layers. These transitions include a remarkable reentrant synclinic-anticlinic-synclinic ordering sequence of the film surfaces in the presence of a…

For faster signal propagation in integrated circuits, new materials with lower dielectric constant (low-k) values are required with copper metal lines. Although integration of low-k materials (k<3.0) has been demonstrated, but ultra low-k materials possess many challenges due to their poor mechanical integrity and…
