Summary The European Council Water Framework Directive requires reference conditions to be determined for all water body types including lakes. We examined the role of palaeolimnology, specifically the diatom record, as a tool for assessing eutrophication and for defining lake reference conditions and ecological statu…

Abstract Diarylethene single crystals which exhibit thermally irreversible and fatigue-resistant photochromic reactions have been developed. Upon irradiation with ultraviolet light, the colorless diarylethene crystals turn yellow, red, blue, or green, depending on the substituents of the aryl groups. Dichroism of the…

The Gram-positive soil bacterium Bacillus subtilis responds to oxidative stress by the activation of different cellular defence mechanisms. These are composed of scavenging enzymes as well as protection and repair systems organized in highly sophisticated networks. In this study, the peroxide and the superoxide stress…

Abstract A simple and effective approach to the aqueous‐phase synthesis of crystalline silver nanorods and nanowires is demonstrated, using which their diameters and aspect ratios can be effectively controlled. The synthesis involves a template‐less and non‐seed process to high‐quality nanoparticles, which is low‐cost…

We performed a comprehensive scaling study of Schottky-barrier (SB) carbon nanotube transistors using self-consistent, atomistic scale simulations. We restrict our attention to SB carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (FETs) whose metal source-drain is attached to an intrinsic carbon nanotube channel. Ambipolar con…

Abstract The introduction of a fifth amphibole group, the Na-Ca-Mg-Fe-Mn-Li group, defined by 0.50 < B (M g ,Fe 2+ ,Mn 2+ ,Li) < 1.50 and 0.50 ≤ B (Ca,Na) ≤ 1.50 a.f.p.u. (atoms per formula unit), with members whittakerite and ottoliniite, has been required by recent discoveries of B (LiNa) amphiboles. This, and…

The composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission line (TL) is presented as a general TL possessing both left-handed (LH) and right-handed (RH) natures. The dispersion diagram of the two-dimensional (2-D) CRLH-TL is obtained analytically based on the Bloch-Floquet theory, and the unique phenomenon of infinite guided…

It has been widely shown that many plant-derived compounds present significant anti-inflammatory effects. For this reason, they represent potential molecules for the development of new drugs, especially designed for the treatment and/or control of chronic inflammatory states such as rheumatism, asthma, inflammatory bo…

Since most archaea are extremophilic and difficult to cultivate, our current knowledge of their biology is confined largely to comparative genomics and biochemistry. Haloferax volcanii offers great promise as a model organism for archaeal genetics, but until now there has been a lack of a wide variety of selectable ma…

Carbon nanotubes are molecular-scale tubes of graphitic carbon with outstanding properties. They are among the stiffest and strongest fibres known, with Young's moduli as high as 1 TPa and tensile strengths of up to 63 GPa. They also have remarkable electronic properties and can be metallic or semiconducting depending…

Single crystals of the high-temperature modification of zinc catena-polyphosphate, beta-Zn(PO(3))(2), were grown from a melt and quenched from 1093 K to room temperature. The structure was solved from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data and is built of corrugated (PO(3))( infinity ) polyphosphate chains, which exten…
