We present a systematic analysis of molecular oxygen (O$_2$) adsorption trends on bimetallic PtNi clusters and their monometallic counterparts supported on MgO(100), by means of periodic DFT calculations for sizes between 25 up to 58 atoms. O$_2$ adsorption was studied on a variety of inequivalent sites for different…

Abstract Instantaneous electronic and structural modifications of Cu surfaces by high‐pressure CO were explored. At pressures over a millibar range the coverage of CO on the Cu(1 1 1) surface reached approximately one monolayer, and we observed several shake‐up peaks in the Cu 2p photoemission spectra for the first ti…

Due to the existing nanofabrication techniques, many periodic photonic structures consist of different parts where the material properties depend only on one spatial variable. The vertical mode expansion method (VMEM) is a special computational method for analyzing the scattering of light by structures with this geome…

Nanodiamonds (NDs) could be regarded as one of the most attractive nanocarbon materials available so far for biomedical applications. After being carboxylated, they can be used as the carrier for drug‐delivery systems and cell probes. However, their effect on cell migration and the related mechanism remains unknown. H…
