We show that band topology can dramatically change the photophysics of two-dimensional semiconductors. For systems in which states near the band extrema are of multicomponent character, the spinors describing these components (pseudospins) can pick up nonzero winding numbers around the extremal k point. In these syste…

Poplar wood (Populus euramericana cv. “I-214”) was impregnated by pulse dipping at 0.7 MPa to 0.8 MPa for 30 min with a catalyst Ln∼SO42−/TiO2–SiO2, itaconic acid, and silica sol. Then, the modifier was cured within the wood micropores during in situ polymerization via kiln drying. The treated wood exhibited increased…

calcineurin (CaN) is a serine/threonine phosphatase that regulates a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes in mammalian tissue. The CaN regulatory domain (RD) is responsible for regulating the enzyme’s phosphatase activity, and is believed to be highly-disordered when inhibiting CaN, but undergoes…

Abstract Epitaxial strain and chemical substitution have been the workhorses of functional materials design. These static techniques have shown immense success in controlling properties in complex oxides through the tuning of subtle structural distortions. Recently, an approach based on the excitation of an infrared a…

Abstract The partitioning of calcium between liquid silver and liquid iron at 1823 K and 1873 K (1550 °C and 1600 °C) was studied experimentally using a closed molybdenum container. The calcium potential in the container was controlled by the composition of the alloys in equilibrium. The results agreed well with previ…

We successfully produced carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using a quartz chamber and thermal Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method. The main goal of this study was to grow CNTs in a uniformly aligned array on a silicon wafer coated with a thin layer of a metal catalyst by controlling the flow rates of acetylene (source for ca…

Topological crystalline insulator SnTe is a promising material for future spintronics applications because of the strong spin-orbit coupling and surface states protected by the mirror symmetry of the crystal. In this paper, using a high-quality epitaxial (001)-oriented Fe/SnTe/CdTe/ZnTe heterostructure grown on GaAs,…

Van der Waals structures based on two-dimensional materials have been considered as promising structures for novel nanoscale electronic devices. Two-dimensional SnO films which display intrinsic p-type semiconducting properties were fabricated recently. In this paper, we consider vertically stacked heterostructures co…

We report the measurements of de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations in the noncentrosymmetric superconductor BiPd. Several pieces of a complex multisheet Fermi surface are identified, including a small pocket (α∼40 T) which is three dimensional and anisotropic. From the temperature dependence of the amplitude of the…

Thermoelectric generators are solid state machines used to convert temperature gradients into electrical energy. They are formed by several thermoelectric units connected electrically in series and thermally in parallel. These units are made by creating a junction between a p-type and an n-type conductor.

ZBLAN glass shows great potential in the application of long-haul telecommunication cables. However, during processing in the fibre-drawing temperature region, the material tends to crystallize, resulting in large transmission losses. In this study, ZBLAN glass was processed with different cooling rates to discern how…
