A model potential for colloidal building blocks is defined with two different types of attractive surface sites, described as complementary patches and antipatches. A Bernal spiral is identified as the global minimum for clusters with appropriate arrangements of three patch-antipatch pairs. We further derive a minimal…

Grain-oriented (GO) laminations owing to their crystalline and textured structure exhibit strong anisotropy in magnetic characteristics. GO laminations generally display highly steep, gooseneck, and narrow waist rolling direction (RD) hysteresis loops and complex-shaped transverse direction (TD) curves. The original J…

We have investigated the role of linker molecules in quantum-dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) using density-functional theory (DFT) and experiments. Linkers not only govern the number of attached QDs but also influence charge separation, recombination, and transport. Understanding their behavior is therefore not st…

An embedded atom method (EAM) interatomic potential is constructed to reproduce the main topological features of the experimental equilibrium phase diagram of the Cu–Nb system in both solid and liquid states. The potential is fitted to composition-dependent enthalpies of mixing for bcc and fcc random solid solutions o…

We have successfully developed a simple and totally recyclable method to synthesize novel, biocompatible, and biodegradable composite materials from cellulose (CEL) and chitosan (CS). In this method, [BMIm(+) Cl(-) ], an ionic liquid (IL), was used as a green solvent to dissolve and synthesize the [CEL+CS] composites.…

Understanding the complexities of electronic and magnetic ground states in solids is one of the main goals of solid-state physics. Materials with the canonical ThCr${}_{2}$Si${}_{2}$-type structure have proved particularly fruitful in this regard, as they exhibit a wide range of technologically advantageous physical p…

In this article, we describe the introduction of amphiphilic β-cyclodextrins into liposomes to act as artificial receptor units. Using dynamic light scattering, dye encapsulation, and cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, we show that amphiphilic β-cyclodextrins can be mixed in any proportion with a typical mixt…

We report absolute dissociative electron attachment (DEA) and dissociative ionization (DI) cross sections for electron scattering from the focused electron beam induced deposition (FEBID) precursor Co(CO)(3)NO in the incident electron energy range from 0 to 140 eV. We find that DEA leads mainly to single carbonyl loss…

This paper deals with several properties of calcite crystals. First, the solvated surface energies at 0 K of the {101̅4}, {101̅0}, {112̅0}, {011̅8}, {011̅2}, {0001}, and {213̅4} forms were determined by means of the COSMIC method. We find that the presence of water reduces by ∼7–14% the dry surface energy at 0 K, in a…

For the characterization of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) fields, hydrophone measurements should be performed in water in the whole range of the radiated power; however, cavitation occurs at high output, leading to the destruction of the hydrophone. To avoid this problem, a new hydrophone with additional pr…
