Photoluminescence was observed in both synthetic and natural forms of the transition metal dichalcogenide ${\mathrm{MoS}}_{2}.$ The emission is in the near infrared between 0.8 and 1.2 eV. Two distinct regions were identified. The first region, centered at 1.18 eV and observed only in the synthetic material, is produc…

We compare the efficacies of three preparation methods intended to create in an easy and inexpensive way a nonpreferential surface for a two-component homopolymer blend of polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate). The first method is to physically absorb two different high molecular weight copolymers of styrene and m…

We have gained new insight into the interactions between the second-messenger protein calmodulin (CaM) and myosin light chain kinase from skeletal muscle (skMLCK) using small-angle solution scattering and shape restoration. Specifically, we explored the nature of a 2Ca(2+)-CaM-skMLCK complex and compared it to a 4Ca(2…

Abstract The full‐potential linearized augmented plane waves (FP‐LAPW) method within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) is applied to determine the electronic properties of the equiatomic alloys B2‐MTi ( M = Fe, Co, Ni). Detailed analysis is devoted to the NiTi austenic, premartensic, and martensic phases. T…

Dynamical homogeneity was observed in mixtures of PVME with two small molecules 4-ethylphenol [EPh] and bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane [BPM] by broadband dielectric spectroscopy. TTS is valid in mixtures with EPh concentrations up to 50% and for BPM content from 2 to 30%, and all have the same segmental relaxation time d…

We examined the effect of ionizable residues at positions flanking the hydrophobic core of helix-forming polyLeu peptides upon helix-helix interactions within model membrane vesicles composed of dioleoylphosphatidylcholine. The peptides studied were flanked on both the N and C termini either by two Lys (K(2)-flanked p…

Ethyl 1-[(4-hydroxyphenyl)aminocarbonyl)]-2-vinylcyclopropane carboxylate has been oligomerized using horseradisch peroxidase as catalyst. The oligomerization was achieved in the presence of cyclodextrine at room temperature in phosphate buffer (pH 7). The oligomer formed was cross-linked via free radical polymerizati…

This Communication describes a pseudotetrahedral d7 complex, [PhBP3]Co(OSiPh3), that exhibits thermally induced spin-crossover both in solution and in the solid state. Magnetic crossover behavior is achieved by confluence of the X-type ligand and the tripodal auxiliary employed. Four-coordinate platforms of the presen…

A general strategy to reduce the size of the inactive space in extended Configuration Interaction calculations is presented. The approach is based on the use of local orbitals, obtained from a recently reported iterative method. Both occupied and virtual local orbitals are classified according to their topological nat…

The aqueous solution of poly(lactic acid- co -glycolic acid)- g -poly(ethylene glycol) becomes a gel as the temperature increases. The sol-to-gel transition temperature can be controlled from 15 to 45 °C by varying the number of poly(ethylene glycol) grafts and the composition of the polymer. In addition, hysteresis b…
