The MRL/MpJ mouse displays the rare ability amongst mammals to heal injured ear tissue without scarring. Numerous studies have shown that the formation of a blastema-like structure leads to subsequent tissue regeneration in this model, indicating many parallels with amphibian limb regeneration and mammalian embryogene…

Abstract Lanthanum doping of zirconium rich lead zirconate titanate gives rise to incommensurate, long‐period antiferroelectric structures. The structure of two stacking sequences in this incommensurate phase is determined using quantitative analysis of high‐resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy images,…

Edge reconstruction modifies the electronic properties of finite graphene samples. We formulate a low-energy theory of the reconstructed zigzag edge by deriving the modified boundary condition to the Dirac equation. If the unit-cell size of the reconstructed edge is not a multiple of three with respect to the zigzag u…

In this study, we prepared a series of Ag-doped PbSe bulk materials by a melting–quenching process combined with a subsequent spark plasma sintering process, and systematically investigated the doping effects of Ag on the thermoelectric properties. Ag substitution in the Pb site does not introduce resonant levels near…

40 is a magic number for tetrahedral symmetry predicted in both nuclear physics and the electronic jellium model. We show that Au${}_{40}$ could be such a a magic cluster from density functional theory-based basin hopping for global minimization. The putative global minimum found for Au${}_{40}$ has a twisted pyramid…

We investigate the behavior of Kapitza conductance at interfaces between two Lennard-Jones fcc solids as a function of the range and strength of cross-species interactions via molecular dynamics simulations. It is found that decreasing either of these quantities leads to a reduction in the slope of linear temperature…

Stiffness of interfacial bonding between two materials plays a major role in controlling the thermal conductance of the interface. We use nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to study interfacial thermal conductance at an epitaxial interface between two fcc crystals with interatomic interactions described by…

Dielectric behaviour of BiFeO 3 ceramics, obtained by hot-pressing of nanopowders produced by mechanochemical synthesis from Bi 2 O 3 and Fe 2 O 3 oxides (weight ratio 2:1), was studied in the temperature range 125–575 K. The ceramics was found to exhibit step-like dielectric response ε*(T) with high permittivity valu…

Using the screened hybrid functional of Heyd, Scuseria, and Ernzerhof (HSE) we explore the effects of strain on the energetic ordering and effective mass of the lowest conduction-band states in SrTiO${}_{3}$. We predict that biaxial stress in the (001) or (110) planes results in the lowest-energy conduction-band state…

Under high-strain-rate compression (strain rate approximately 10(3) s(-1)), nacre (mother-of-pearl) exhibits surprisingly high fracture strength vis-à-vis under quasi-static loading (strain rate 10(-3) s(-1)). Nevertheless, the underlying mechanism responsible for such sharply different behaviors in these two loading…

The direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide from molecular H2 and O2 represents a green and economic alternative to the current anthraquinone process used for the industrial production of H2O2. In order for the direct process to compete with the anthraquinone process, there is a need for enhanced H2O2 yields and H2 sele…

Abstract The physicochemical basis of probe design for 19 F MRS and MRI applications is reviewed. Complexes that give a single major resonance in solution are described, in which the Ln 3+ ion is about 6 Å from the 19 F label. Sensitivity improvements of 15‐fold are reported in both imaging and spectroscopy based on l…
