Protein structures available from the PDB contain for each atom the coordinates, the occupancy and the B-factor that indicates the mobility of the atom. The values that should represent B-factors can relate to atomic motions in different ways. We present here a databank in which all B-factors have been converted to th…

The demixing in an LCST mixture of PS/PVME (polystyrene/poly(vinyl methyl ether)) was probed here by melt rheology in the presence of gold nanoparticles which were densely coated with varying graft lengths of PS. The graft density for the gold nanoparticles coated with 3 kDa PS was ca. Σ = 1.7 chains/nm 2, and that fo…

Application of a perpendicular magnetic field to charge neutral graphene is expected to result in a variety of broken symmetry phases, including antiferromagnetic, canted, and ferromagnetic. All these phases open a gap in bulk but have very different edge states and noncollinear spin order, recently confirmed experime…

Fluctuations within the ligand shell of a nanoparticle give rise to a significant degree of anisotropy in effective pair interactions for low grafting densities [B. Bozorgui, D. Meng, S. K. Kumar, C. Chakravarty, and A. Cacciuto, Nano Lett. 13, 2732 (2013)]. Here, we examine the corresponding fluctuation-driven anisot…

Human transthyretin has an intrinsic tendency to form amyloid fibrils and is heavily implicated in senile systemic amyloidosis. Here, detailed neutron structural studies of perdeuterated transthyretin are described. The analyses, which fully exploit the enhanced visibility of isotopically replaced hydrogen atoms, yiel…

meso-Bromosubporphyrin undergoes nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SN Ar) reactions with arylamines, diarylamines, phenols, ethanol, thiophenols, and n-butanethiol in the presence of suitable bases to provide the corresponding substitution products. The SN Ar reactions also proceed well with pyrrole, indole, and car…

2000NN Ni-Zn ferrites have been produced by radiation-enhanced thermal sintering. Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction have been used to investigate general aspects of phase transformations during the radiation-enhanced thermal sintering of green compacts. We have studied distinctive features of the phase tran…

We evaluate the impact that the amount of nonlocal Hartree-Fock (%HF) exchange included in a hybrid density functional has on the microscopic parameters (transfer integrals, band gaps, bandwidths, and effective masses) describing charge transport in high-mobility organic crystals. We consider both crystals based on a…

The temperature-dependent photophysical properties of a series of 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) derivatives with different oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) dendrons were investigated. Weak fluorescence emission was observed for these BODIPY derivatives in dilute solution with low viscosity. BDP-G0 an…

Fluorinated polymers or chemicals with long length of fluorinated tail are often used to enhance the hydrophobicity and oleophobicity of surfaces. In this work, superhydrophobic and highly solvent-repellent surfaces were fabricated by using a series of block copolymers with 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl substituted siloxane s…

In this work, we report the effects on CdSe nanocrystal (NC) surface chemistry of acetone and methanol when used as the antisolvents for NC washing and as the solvents for ligand exchange of NC solids with ammonium thiocyanate (NH 4 SCN). We find that NCs washed with methanol have significantly fewer remaining organic…
