Abstract UNS S17400 steel is used in turbines for the aerospace and utility industries. While it is generally corrosion resistant, it is susceptible to pitting when exposed to aqueous chloride environments. Effects of pitting characteristics, such as depth, width, and local density on fatigue life, have been studied i…

Cubic boron arsenide (c-BAs) has been predicted to exhibit thermal conductivity values around 1400 W/m-K at room temperature by first-principles calculations and, thus, shows promise to be one of the solutions for the thermal management challenge faced by the semiconductor industry. However, the size of single crystal…

Various phase diagrams of charge density wave (CDW) and superconductivity (SC) have been reported in layered transition-metal dichalcogenides. Some of the ordered phases in these diagrams are not universal because they rely on different critical factors, leading to the proliferation of contradictory arguments about CD…

Abstract A tripeptide containing an oligo‐methylene group was found to form hydrogels at the two pH extremes (in presence of an acid or a base); however, it does not form a hydrogel at neutral pH. We use this property to obtain a hydrogel of the peptide in the presence of an organic acid, citric acid. The redox potent…

It is known that specific oligomers of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) can show remarkable selectivity when coating different structural species of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). We report that (ATT) 4 ssDNA coatings strongly distinguish between the two optical isomers of (7,5) SWCNTs. This causes resolvable shift…
