Magnetic Ru-capped/FeCo nanoflowers are solvothermally synthesised through a self-catalytic growth and assembly process. The synthesised Ru-capped/FeCo nanoflowers (∼3.63 μm) consist of Ru-capped FeCo nanorods with an average diameter of ∼13 nm and a length ranging from 1.33 to 2.1 μm. A vibration sample magnetometer…

Here we describe a new method for the direct patterned synthesis of graphene meshes on Cu foils that use self-assembled silica sphere arrays as growth masks. Structural analyses based on electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy showed that the graphene meshes are mostly single- or double-layer necks with empty holes…

We present the results of high-field magnetization and muon-spin relaxation measurements on the coordination polymer CuF${}_{2}$(H${}_{2}$O)${}_{2}$(pyrazine) in pressures up to 22.5 kbar. We observe a transition from a quasi-two-dimensional to a quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic phase at 9.1 kbar, driven by a r…

BshB, a key enzyme in bacillithiol biosynthesis, hydrolyses the acetyl group from N-acetylglucosamine malate to generate glucosamine malate. In Bacillus anthracis, BA1557 has been identified as the N-acetylglucosamine malate deacetylase (BshB); however, a high content of bacillithiol (~70%) was still observed in the B…

ABSTRACT Nanoporous or mesoporous structures and hence a decrease in dielectric constant can always be induced with the introduction of air into polymeric materials. It is therefore achievable to prepare ultra‐large‐scale integrated circuit (ULSIC) on ultralow dielectric constant (i.e., low‐ k ) materials. The researc…
