The refractive index is a measure of how much light slows down when it enters a medium. Conventional materials have a positive refractive index that is normally greater than 1. In his Perspective, Wiltshire explains how Shelby et al. were able to defy convention and make a negative refractive index material without vi…

Recently, a variety of aliphatic polyesters have been synthesized using hydrolases such as lipases and PHB depolymerases, and the reaction mechanism for these enzyme-catalyzed polymerization has been discussed. In this paper, we have studied the involvement of the catalytic amino acid residues of the hydrolase in enzy…

The thermal decomposition of hydrotalcite-like materials containing Zn(II), Fe(III), and Al(III) is studied. One of these samples contains zinc and aluminum in the brucite-like layers, while iron is incorporated as hexacyanoferrate(III) anions in the interlayer space. A second set of samples with Fe/Al atomic ratios i…

We report on the transport properties, Hall effect and resistivity, of epitaxial ${\mathrm{La}}_{1\ensuremath{-}y}{\mathrm{TiO}}_{3+\ensuremath{\delta}}$ thin films. The materials, grown by molecular beam epitaxy, display a temperature independent Hall coefficient and a characteristic ${T}^{2}$ dependence of the resis…

Detwinning in crystalline solids is a unique deformation mechanism partially responsible for the shape memory effect in addition to phase transformation. Owing to an insignificant dislocation process during detwinning leading to inelastic deformation, the residual strain can be recovered through a reverse transformati…

Simple algebraic equations show that the bulk compressibility in spinel-type compounds can be expressed by means of cation oxide polyhedral compressibilities and a term that accounts for the pressure effect on the internal oxygen position in the unit cell. The equations explain (i) the difference of compressibilities…
