Starting from the recently proposed energy-based deviational formulation for solving the Boltzmann equation [J.-P. Péraud and N. G. Hadjiconstantinou, Phys. Rev. B 84, 205331 (2011)], which provides significant computational speedup compared to standard Monte Carlo methods for small deviations from equilibrium, we sho…

SrTiO 3 crystalline nanoparticles were prepared using the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method at 140 °C with synthesis times varying from 4 to 160 min. Sample characterization showed that the method is effective in obtaining nanoparticles in a relatively short time, which have the highest photoluminescence emission…

The reaction of ((Ar)L)Co(py) with (t)BuN(3) afforded the isolable three-coordinate Co-imido complex ((Ar)L)Co(N(t)Bu), which is paramagnetic at room temperature. Variable-temperature (VT) (1)H NMR spectroscopy, VT crystallography, and magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed that ((Ar)L)Co(N(t)Bu) undergoes a th…

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is known to be a useful material in substituting the conventional petroleum-based polymer used in packaging, due to its biodegradability and high mechanical strength. Despite the excellent properties of PLA, low flexibility has limited the application of this material. Thus, epoxidized palm ole…

Twenty years ago Poole et al. suggested that the anomalous properties of supercooled water may be caused by a critical point that terminates a line of liquid-liquid separation of lower-density and higher-density water. Here we present a thermodynamic model based on this hypothesis, which describes all available experi…

We demonstrate the design, characterization, and interference-theory interpretation of a terahertz triple-band metamaterial absorber (MA). The experiments show that the fabricated MA has three distinctive absorption peaks at 0.5, 1.03, and 1.71 THz with absorption rates of 96.4%, 96.3%, and 96.7%, respectively. We use…

Real-time monitoring of cell apoptosis could provide valuable insights into early detection of therapy efficiency and evaluation of disease progression. In this work, we designed and synthesized a new live-cell-permeable, fluorescent light-up probe for real-time cell apoptosis imaging. The probe is comprised of a hydr…

The structures, the phase diagrams, and the appearance of a neutron resonance signaling an unconventional superconducting state provide phenomenological evidence relating the cuprates, the Fe-pnictides and chalcogenides as well as some heavy-fermion and actinide materials. Single-band and multiband Hubbard models have…

X-ray crystallography is a technique used to determine the atomic-detail structure of a biological macromolecule. The method relies on the ability to generate a three-dimensional crystal of a highly purified protein or nucleic acid for diffraction by X-rays. The extent of scattering of X-rays by the crystal determines…

Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase from Aeromonas caviae FA440 (PhaC(Ac), BAA21815) is one of the most valuable PHA synthase, because of its function to synthesize a practical bioplastic, poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-(R)-3-hydroxyhexanoate] [P(3HB-co-3HHx)]. However, biochemical activity and active intermediates of…
