The age hardening response of a high-purity Al⁻4Cu⁻1Li⁻0.25Mn alloy (wt. %) during isothermal aging without and with an applied external load was investigated. Plate shaped nanometer size T₁ (Al₂CuLi) and θ' (Al₂Cu) hardening phases were formed. The precipitates were analyzed with respect to the development of their s…
The high quantum efficiency of natural photosynthesis has inspired chemists for solar fuel synthesis. In photosynthesis, charge recombination in photosystems is minimized by efficient charge separation across the thylakoid membrane. Building on our previous bioelectrochemical studies of electron transfer between a lig…
The specific properties of carbon nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted great attention in applications in biotechnology and biomedicine, e.g., in the field of amyloidosis. To date, it is still indefinable whether carbon NPs would promote or inhibit the fibril formation of amyloid proteins. Here, to uncover the effects o…
The complexation of the trivalent lanthanides Nd(III) and Eu(III) and of the actinide Am(III) with malate was studied using a multi-method approach. The combination of structural and thermodynamic studies was required for the interpretation of the stoichiometry and thermodynamic data (log β 0, Δ r H 0 m, Δ r S 0 m, Δ…
Materials with non-Kramers doublet ground states naturally manifest the two-channel Kondo effect, as the valence fluctuations are from a non-Kramers doublet ground state to an excited Kramers doublet. Here, the development of a heavy Fermi liquid requires a channel-symmetry-breaking spinorial hybridization that breaks…
Metalloenzymes catalyze many different types of biological reactions with high efficiency and remarkable selectivity. The quantum chemical cluster approach and the combined quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics methods have proven very successful in the elucidation of the reaction mechanism and rationalization of sele…
This study examined the effect of three extraction solvents [trichloroethylene (TCE), toluene, and nPB] on the rheological properties of recovered asphalt binders when used with four binders of different performance grades (PG 58-28, PG 64-22, PG 64-28, and PG 70-22) that have been subjected to various levels of aging…
Precision‐cut liver slices (PCLS) are widely used in liver research as they provide a liver model with all liver cell types in their natural architecture. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the use of PCLS for hyperpolarized metabolic investigation in a mouse model, for potential future application in liver…
We introduce a quantitative comparison of the overall initiation efficiency for a library of eight mono-, bis-, and tetraacylgermane visible light photoinitiators with p- methoxy and fluorine substitution patterns. Specifically, cocktail experiments were carried out, fusing pulsed laser polymerization (PLP) of methyl…
We show that local structure, in an otherwise random medium, can change the nature of invasion percolation phenomena, including multiphase fluid flows. By combining microfluidic drying experiments with simple models we explain how local correlations in pore sizes lead to more extreme dynamics.
Abstract Herein in we report the unprecedented catalytic activity of an iron‐based oxygen‐deficient perovskite for the oxygen‐evolution reaction (OER). The systematic trends in OER activity as a function of composition, defect‐order, and electrical conductivity have been demonstrated, leading to a methodical increase…
This paper presents a computationally efficient approach for calculating interfacial properties of liquids. Calculations of surface tension for a variety of pure components and binary mixtures agree well with experiment and with density functional theory calculations. The significant gain in computational speed should…
species. This reaction pathway is both kinetically and thermodynamically facile. The by-product furfuryl alcohol could be attributed to the outstanding hydrogenation ability of the ruthenium metal. Comparing to the group X metals and ruthenium, the decarbonylation pathway to produce furan and carbon monoxide is inhibi…
Photoelectrochemical water splitting is a promising field for sustainable energy production using hydrogen. Development of efficient catalysts is essential for resourceful hydrogen production. The most efficient catalysts reported to date have been extremely precious rare-earth metals. One of the biggest hurdles in th…
The antireflection coating on an optical lens plays a key role not only in minimizing specular reflection but also in maximizing light transmission. Antireflective structures (ARS) found in the eyes of moths have the same role as conventional antireflection coating, and they also provide many intriguing features such…
Abstract Nitramine explosives can combine relative insensitivity to initiation and great energy content. In this work, based on a previous approach developed for nitroaromatic explosives, we propose four mathematical models to correlate impact sensitivity, given by the h50 value, to molecular charge properties. Fourte…
An unprecedented zeolite supramolecular framework featuring truncated cuboctahedral and truncated octahedral cavities was self-assembled from tetrahedral metal-organic cationic cages and tetrahedral anions. This crystalline porous material could trap iodine and organic dye molecules, and its solid state spin-crossover…
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are considered as promising drug carriers by virtue of their potent cell-penetrating capacity. However, lack of targetability still represents a bottleneck for their systemic administration. Here, we synthesized a lysine-rich CPP named KRP and developed a tumor-targeted drug delivery s…
Schottky‐barrier solar cells (SBSCs) represent low‐cost candidates for photovoltaics applications. The engineering of the interface between absorber and front electrode is crucial for reducing the dark current, blocking the majority carriers injected into the electrode, and reducing surface recombination. The presence…
Electrochemical behavior and performance of negative electrodes in metal batteries can be modified and improved by combining different elements. Herein, a beneficial coupling of In and Sb in the alloying reaction with Mg was considered through the preparation of the InSb alloy by mechanochemical synthesis. Despite a s…
