In this paper, we report on the use of two PTCDI-melamine supramolecular networks on Au(111) to trap C70 molecules. The different supramolecular networks were formed by changing the postannealing temperature after molecular deposition. We observed, using scanning tunneling microscopy, that the deposition of C70 onto a…

The effects of noble metal (NM) dopants (NM = Pt, Rh) on the structural and electronic properties of ceria are studied using a density functional theory (DFT) method, with the inclusion of on-site Coulomb interaction (DFT+ U ). It is found that these NM dopants give rise to large perturbations of the atomic and electr…

Laminated composites of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric layers have been developed for their magnetoelectric (ME) product tensor properties. In spite of the considerable progress in materials aspects, little attention has been given to ME laminate incorporation into a detection technology. Here, we present a ME tec…

Best PALs. We have applied a photoswitchable affinity label (PAL) to the optical control of protein function. The enzymatic activity of native carbonic anhydrase was controlled with covalently tethered, photoswitchable inhibitors (see scheme). This system allows the photoregulation of native proteins without site-spec…

Atomistic modelling studies of the apatite-type oxide ion conductor La9.33(GeO4)6O2 show that a key role of the O4 channel oxygen atoms appears to be as a reservoir for the creation of interstitial oxide ion defects, while the migration of these defects proceeds via the GeO4 tetrahedra.

In this paper, a systematic approach to the design of bulk isotropic magnetic metamaterials is presented. The roles of the symmetries of both the constitutive element and the lattice are analyzed. For this purpose, it is assumed that the metamaterial is composed of cubic split ring resonators (SRRs) arranged in a cubi…

The effect of grain size of magnesia and its content as well as spark plasma sintering conditions on the density, grain size, strength, hardness, and toughness of alumina was investigated. Spark plasma sintering conditions were optimized at 1150°C/5 min/175°C/min. Addition of 100 nm magnesia gave higher density levels…

In this work the homogenization approach recently proposed in [M. Silveirinha, Phys. Rev.

Abstract We evaluate the feasibility of electrospinning oil‐in‐water type emulsions. The emulsions had an aqueous solution of polyethylene oxide (PEO) as the continuous phase, and either mineral oil or a polystyrene (PS) in toluene solution as the drop phase. The Taylor cones and electrified liquid jets were stable ev…
