Due to their well-defined three-dimensional geometry, spiro compounds are widely utilized in drug research. From the central tetrahedral carbon atom, besides the regular structure, an inverted spiro connectivity may be envisioned. Here we disclose the synthesis of this molecule class that we have coined quasi[1]catena…

This paper discusses a motor that was designed to satisfy the size constraints of system by using ferrite magnet and has the same performance as rare-earth magnet motor. In general, the size of the motor is increased in order to meet the same performance of motor using a ferrite magnet, because of its very low energy…

Abstract Recently, liquid phase crystallization of thin silicon films has emerged as a candidate for thin-film photovoltaics. On 10 μm thin absorbers, wafer-equivalent morphologies and open-circuit voltages were reached, leading to 13.2% record efficiency. However, short-circuit current densities are still limited, ma…

In this work we probe the third-order nonlinear optical property of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride and their heterostructure by the use of coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy. When the energy difference of the two input fields matches the phonon energy, the anti-Stokes emission intensity is enhanced in h-BN,…

Abstract This study deals with the unprecedented reactivity of dinuclear non‐heme MnII–thiolate complexes with O2, which dependent on the protonation state of the initial MnII dimer selectively generates either a di‐μ‐oxo or μ‐oxo‐μ‐hydroxo MnIV complex. Both dimers have been characterized by different techniques incl…

The quest for the by-design assembly of material and devices from nanoscale inorganic components is well recognized. Conventional self-assembly is often limited in its ability to control material morphology and structure simultaneously. Here, we report a general method of assembling nanoparticles in a linear "pillar"…

The method for chitosan (CS) covalent immobilization onto NH2-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles surface is presented. Covalent binding of CS to the magnetite surface proceeds using a free -CH2OH group of CS and a NH2-group of magnetite with epichlorohydrin (ECH) as a cross-linker. The obtained nanocomposites were…

Abstract Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are among the promising candidates to reach the highest efficiency among single‐junction solar cells due to their band gap around 1.55 eV, strong absorption, and long charge carrier diffusion length. However, the anomalous hysteresis observed in its current–voltage (I–V) curves t…

BACKGROUND: T7 lysozyme (T7L), also known as N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase, is a T7 bacteriophage gene product. It involves two functions: It can cut amide bonds in the bacterial cell wall and interacts with T7 RNA polymerase (T7RNAP) as a part of transcription inhibition. In this study, with the help of molecula…

The resolution of electron-potential maps in single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM) is approaching atomic or near- atomic resolution. However, no program currently exists for de novo cryoEM model building at resolutions exceeding beyond 3.5 Å. Here, we present a program, EMBuilder, based on template matchin…

In several unconventional superconductors, the highest superconducting transition temperature ${T}_{c}$ is found in a region of the phase diagram where the antiferromagnetic transition temperature extrapolates to zero, signaling a putative quantum critical point. The elucidation of the interplay between these two phen…
