We present a model for describing spin diffusion in normal-metal/ferromagnetic-metal heterostructures induced by pulsed-laser heating. The model is based on the assumptions that electronic heat currents give rise to the spin-dependent Seebeck effect and that ultrafast demagnetization generates spin accumulation with a…

Solvent-extracted nitrogenase cofactors can reduce C 1 substrates (CN –, CO and CO 2 ) to hydrocarbons in reactions driven by a strong reductant, SmI 2 ( E 0′ = −1.55 V vs SCE). Here we show that a synthetic [Et 4 N] 4 [Fe 6 S 9 (SEt) 2 ] cluster (designated the Fe 6 RHH -cluster), which mimics the homometallic [Fe 8…

Abstract This article introduces an improvement to the fabrication of aluminum foams with small pore size by melt foaming method. Before added to the melt, the foaming agent (titanium hydride) was pretreated in two steps. It firstly went through the traditional pre-oxidation treatment, which delayed the decomposition…

Some nanoporous, crystalline materials possess dynamic constituents, for example, rotatable moieties. These moieties can undergo a conformation change in response to the adsorption of guest molecules, which qualitatively impacts adsorption behavior. We pose and solve a statistical mechanical model of gas adsorption in…

Excimer formation plays a significant role in trapping excitons within organic molecular solids. Covalent dimers of perylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (PDI) are useful model systems for studying these processes as their intermolecular geometries can be precisely tuned. Using femtosecond visible-pump infrared-probe (…
