Diesel-fueled fuel cell systems can be more clean and efficient energy solutions than internal combustion engines for electric power generation on-board naval surface ships. NATO Navy steam and gas turbine and diesel ships are powered by a naval distillate fuel (NATO symbol F-76). In this study, a 120 kW F-76 diesel-f…

Gold–palladium core–shell nanoparticles have been previously shown to be extremely effective catalysts for a number of oxidation reactions including the aerobic oxidation of alcohols. However, the novel activity and durability of such catalysts are still poorly understood, and there are several putative mechanisms by…

Single-particle cryo-EM is a powerful approach to determine the structure of large macromolecules and assemblies thereof in many cases at subnanometer resolution. It has become popular to refine or flexibly fit atomic models into density maps derived from cryo-EM experiments. These density maps are typically significa…

One-step pyrolysis was applied to synthesize mesoporous charred carbon from used cigarette filters. Proximate analysis suggested that cigarette filters are decent carbon precursors due to their moderate carbon (around 11 %) and low ash (around 0.1 %) contents. To investigate the effects of pyrolysis parameters on poro…

Oxygen vacancies (VO) and their migration and redistribution are believed to be the dominant factors resulting in the degradation of ferroelectrics. Thus, suppressing the formation and mobility of VO is quite crucial for the physical properties of ferroelectric materials. In this paper, the ab-biaxial strain effects o…

The confinement of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), preferential occupancy of the Ti 3$d$ orbital, and strong spin-orbit coupling at the LaAlO${}_{3}$/SrTiO${}_{3}$ interface play a significant role in its emerging properties. Here we report a fourfold oscillation in the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) and…
