knitted fabrics find numerous applications in sportswear fabric industry, during their use it can be subjected to loading-unloading due to the body movements which can be indirectly affected by the dynamic elastic recovery value of the fabrics. The cyclic loads lead to the redistribution of fibers in the yarn structur…
Abstract The solid-state photochromism of two diarylethenes, 1,2-bis(2,4-dimethyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1a) and 1,2-bis(2-methylbenzothiophen-3-yl)perfluorocyclopentene (2a), under shear stress has been investigated. It was found that 1a and 2a exhibited photochromic behavior, transforming from the…
Tremendous amount of heat is being lost at the turbine area of an automotive turbocharger during its operation. Application of ceramic thermal barrier coating to components operating under severe temperature condition such as automotive turbocharger turbine volute casing can reduce the heat lost to the environment, im…
Supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) are ideally suited for the study of biomembrane-biomembrane interactions and for the biomimicry of cell-to-cell communication, allowing for surface ligand displays that contain laterally mobile elements. However, the SLB paradigm does not include three-dimensionality and biocompatibilit…
Specific surface area (SSA) is one of the engineering properties of clayey soils. This property is highly related to the particle size, strength, compressibility, and permeability of soils. Particle size (i.e., clay fraction) is the most important physical property of clay minerals. Liquid limit (LL), as one of Atterb…
An organic dye-modified organolead halide CH3NH3PbBr3 nanoparticle (cubic) is prepared successfully by using a perylenetetracarboxylic diimide (PDI) bearing an -NH3(+) headgroup as the capping ligand. The nanopartilces are homogeneous with high crystallinity. The photoluminescence of perovskite is quenched completely…
An inherently nonlinear pyridine dipyrrolate ligand, namely 2,6-bis(3,4-diethyl-5-carboxy-1H-pyrrol-2yl)pyridine (compound 1), is able to distinguish between different zinc(II) cation sources, namely Zn(acac)2 and Zn(OAc)2, respectively. This differentiation is manifest both in terms of the observed fluorescent behavi…
Strong coupling between semiconductor excitons and localized surface plasmons (LSPs) giving rise to hybridized plexciton states in which energy is coherently and reversibly exchanged between the components is vital, especially in the area of quantum information processing from fundamental and practical points of view.…
Strained bulk HgTe is a three-dimensional topological insulator, whose surface electrons have a high mobility (~ 30 000 cm\(^2\)=Vs), while its bulk is effectively free of mobile charge carriers. These properties enable a study of transport through its unconventional surface states without being hindered by a parallel…
Missing silicon-oxygen bonds in zeolites are shown to be the cause for structural instability of zeolites in hot liquid water. Their selective removal drastically improved their structural stability as demonstrated using zeolite beta as example. The defects in the siloxy bonds were capped by reaction with trimethylchl…
Sepia eumelanin (SE), a biomacromolecule, was developed to prepare the excellent UV-shielding polymer material with better photostability. UV–vis transmittance spectra showed that poly(vinyl alcohol) PVA/SE film blocked most ultraviolet light below 300 nm even with a low concentration of SE (0.5 wt %), which still kep…
We report an air and water stable electride Y5Si3 and its catalytic activity for direct ammonia synthesis. It crystallizes in the Mn5Si3-type structure and confines 0.79/f.u. anionic electrons in the quasi-one-dimensional holes. These anionic electrons strongly hybridize with yttrium 4d electrons, giving rise to impro…
In this work, we describe details of a two-step deposition approach that enables the preparation of continuous and well-structured thin films of Cs 2 SnI 6, which is a one-half Sn-deficient 0-D perovskite derivative (i.e., the compound can also be written as CsSn 0.5 I 3, with a structure consisting of isolated SnI 6…
The development of efficient water oxidation catalysts based on inexpensive and Earth-abundant materials is a prerequisite to enabling water splitting as a feasible source of alternative energy. In this work, we report the synthesis of ternary cobalt manganese phosphide nanoparticles from the solution-phase reaction o…
The search for unconventional superconductivity has been focused on materials with strong spin-orbit coupling and unique crystal lattices. Doped bismuth selenide (Bi$_2$Se$_3$) is a strong candidate given the topological insulator nature of the parent compound and its triangular lattice. The coupling between the physi…
Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exist in a range of crystal phases with distinct electronic character. Some crystal phases are known to exhibit unique in-plane anisotropy characterized by a periodic distortion of the lattice and a formation of metal–metal bonding network. Here, we report in situ observ…
Minimizing the luminescence lifetime while maintaining a high emission quantum yield is paramount in optimizing the excitation cross-section, radiative decay rate, and brightness of quantum solid-state light sources, particularly at room temperature, where nonradiative processes can dominate. We demonstrate here that…
The uniform electron gas and the hydrogen atom play fundamental roles in condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry. The former has an infinite number of electrons uniformly distributed over the neutralizing positively-charged background, and the latter only one electron bound to the proton. The uniform electron g…
Synapses are functional links between neurons, through which "information" flows in the neural network. These connections vary significantly in strength, typically resulting from the intrinsic heterogeneity in their chemical and biological properties. Such heterogeneity is fundamental to the diversity of neural activi…
Negative magnetoresistance (NMR) induced by the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly is regarded as the most prominent quantum signature of Weyl semimetals when electrical field $E$ is collinear with the external magnetic field $B$. In this article, we report universal NMR in nonmagnetic, centrosymmetric transition metal dipnict…
