For a system of two spatially separated monoatomic graphene layers encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride, we consider the drag effect between charge carriers in the Fermi liquid regime. Commonly, the phenomenon is described in terms of an interlayer Coulomb interaction. We show that if an additional electron--electr…

Graphene oxide nanoribbons (GONRs) with a high aspect ratio and high gravimetric density of their edges relative to those of graphene flakes are promising platforms for graphene-based devices. Since the edge chemistry of GONRs determines their final electronic and transport properties, it is important to understand th…

Exciton dynamics within the band-edge state manifold of CdSe/ZnS and CdSe/CdS quantum dots (QDs) have been investigated. Low-temperature time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) experiments demonstrate that exciton relaxation is mediated by LO phonons, whereas an acoustic phonon bottleneck is observed for splitting energi…

An extruded Mg–1Mn–1Nd (wt%) (MN11) alloy was tested in tension in an SEM at temperatures of 323 K (50°C), 423 K (150°C), and 523 K (250°C) to analyse the local deformation mechanisms through in situ observations. Electron backscatter diffraction was performed before and after the deformation. It was found that the te…

The acid soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin soluble collagen (PSC) were extracted from the outer skin of Sepiella inermis and further characterized partially. The yield of ASC was low (0.58% on dry weight basis); whereas the yield of PSC was comparatively more (16.23% on dry weight basis). The protein content in ASC an…
