Strontium titanate is a promising dielectric material for device applications including capacitors and gate dielectrics. However, oxygen vacancies, which are inevitable donor defects mobile under bias at room temperature, lead to undesirable leakage current in SrTiO3 thin films. Epitaxially grown SrTiO3 on lattice mis…

We generate a wide range of hexagonal sheet-based ZnO polymorphs inspired by enumeration of their characteristic underlying nets. Evaluating the bulk and nanofilm stabilities of these structures with ab initio calculations allows for an unprecedented overview of (nano)polymorphism in wurtzite materials. We find a rich…

Core losses in power magnetic components are important factors in their design. These losses are influenced by factors including frequency, temperature, and flux density waveform. A common empirical model to predict these losses is the Steinmetz equation and its derivatives such as the modified Steinmetz equation and…

Fibrous textile materials are widely used in acoustic applications. However, the absorption of lower-frequency sound is problematic with fibrous material made up of coarser fibers. For this reason sound absorption materials effective at low frequencies are required. For low-frequency sound absorption the energy of son…

The procedure to extract and identify from broken-symmetry density functional theory (BS-DFT) calculations the various components of the magnetic couplings in diradicals [J. Chem. Phys. 2012, 137, 114106] is re-examined. It is shown that this previous decomposition scheme fails for systems exhibiting large core polari…

We present an infrared transmission spectroscopy study of the inter-Landau-level excitations in quasineutral epitaxial graphene nanoribbon arrays. We observed a substantial deviation in energy of the L(0(-1)) → L(1(0)) transition from the characteristic square root magnetic-field dependence of two-dimensional graphene…

We measured the resistivity and the specific heat of CsFe${}_{2}$As${}_{2}$ single crystals, which were grown by using a self-flux method. The CsFe${}_{2}$As${}_{2}$ crystal shows a sharp superconducting transition at 1.8 K with a transition width of 0.1 K. The sharp superconducting transition and pronounced jump in s…

In order to mimic amphipathic α-helices, a novel scaffold based on a 1,2-diphenylacetylene was designed. NMR and computational modeling confirmed that an intramolecular hydrogen bond favors conformations of the 1,2-diphenylacetylene that allow for accurate mimicry of the i, i + 7 and i + 2, i + 5 side chains found on…
