Here we show that the 2.80(8)${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{\mathrm{B}}$ Fe${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ block antiferromagnetic order of BaFe${}_{2}$Se${}_{3}$ transforms into stripe antiferromagnetic order in KFe${}_{2}$Se${}_{3}$ with a decrease in moment to 2.1(1)${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{\mathrm{B}}$ Fe${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$. This red…
We propose a new substitutional impurity complex in diamond composed of a lithium atom that is tetrahedrally coordinated by four nitrogen atoms (LiN_4). Density functional calculations are consistent with the hydrogenic impurity model, both supporting the prediction that this complex is a shallow donor with an activat…
We present evidence of type-I superconductivity in single crystals of ScGa${}_{3}$ and LuGa${}_{3}$, from magnetization, specific heat, and resistivity measurements: low critical temperatures ${T}_{c}=2.1$--2.2 K; field-induced second- to first-order phase transition in the specific heat, critical fields less than 240…
In layered polar semiconductor BiTeI, giant Rashba-type spin-split band dispersions show up due to the crystal structure asymmetry and the strong spin-orbit interaction. Here we investigate the 3-dimensional (3D) bulk band structures of BiTeI using the bulk-sensitive $hν$-dependent soft x-ray angle resolved photoemiss…
A transverse computer-generated hologram (CGH) diffracts and provides flexible control of incident light by steering it to any point in the projected image plane - i.e. CGHs are able to direct the light to where it is needed and away from where it is not. In addition, the number of resolvable points in the image proje…
We describe the crystal growth, crystal structure, and basic electrical properties of Bi2Te1.6S1.4, which incorporates both S and Te in its Tetradymite quintuple layers in the motif -[Te0.8S0.2]-Bi-S-Bi-[Te0.8S0.2]-. This material differs from other Tetradymites studied as topological insulators due to the increased i…
Diffraction of slow neutrons by nanoparticle-polymer composite gratings has been observed. By carefully choosing grating parameters such as grating thickness and spacing, a three-port beam splitter operation for cold neutrons - splitting the incident neutron intensity equally into the plus-minus first and zeroth diffr…
The structural and ferroelectric domain variants of highly strained BiFeO3 films grown on vicinal LaSrAlO4 substrates were studied by piezoelectric force microscopy and high-resolution x-ray reciprocal space mapping. Through symmetry breaking of the substrate surface, ferroelastic domain variants in the highly straine…
UNLABELLED: Bionanocomposites films of cassava starch plasticized with sucrose and inverted sugar and reinforced by cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were prepared by solution casting method incorporating 0.1 to 5 wt% of eucalyptus CNCs. The nanocrystals were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, whereas t…
We demonstrate metamaterial metal-based bolometers, which take advantage of resonant absorption in that a spectral and/or polarization filter can be built into the bolometer. Our proof-of-principle gold-nanostructure-based devices operate around 1.5 μm wavelength and exhibit room-temperature time constants of about 13…
Graphene nanoribbon (GNR) field-effect transistors (FETs) with widths down to 12 nm have been fabricated by electron beam lithography using a wafer-scale chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process to form the graphene. The GNR FETs show drain-current modulation of approximately 10 at 300 K, increasing to nearly 106 at 4…
AIMS: To evaluate the toxicity and cellular uptake of both undifferentiated and differentiated human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) exposed to silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs), and to assess their effect on hASC differentiation. MATERIALS & METHODS: hASC were exposed to 10- or 20-nm Ag-NPs at concentrations of 0.1, 1…
The detection of myoglobin (Myo), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), and b-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) plays a vital role in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. Here we present single site-specific polyaniline (PANI) nanowire biosensors that can detect cardiac biomarkers such as Myo, cTnI, CK-MB…
Recent progress has demonstrated that trajectory space for both kinetically constrained lattice models and atomistic models can be partitioned into a liquid-like and an inactive basin with a non-equilibrium phase transition separating these behaviors. Recent work has also established that excitations in atomistic mode…
KEK and NIMS have been jointly developing Nb3Al superconducting wire with a rapid heating and quenching (RHQ) method towards high field accelerator magnets in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) luminosity upgrade. A15-type superconductors such as Nb3Al and Nb3Sn exhibit strain dependence with respect to their critical cu…
This paper reports the synthesis of 2.5 nm gold clusters on the oxygen free and chemically labile support carbon nitride (C 3 N 4 ). Despite having small particle sizes and high enough water partial pressure these Au/C 3 N 4 catalysts are inactive for the gas phase and liquid phase oxidation of carbon monoxide. The re…
We report on an experimental demonstration of graphene-metal ohmic contacts with contact resistance below 100 Ω µm. These have been fabricated on graphene wafers, both with and without hydrogen intercalation, and measured using the transmission line method. Specific contact resistivities of 3 × 10−7 to 1.2 × 10−8 Ω cm…
We report electrical tuning by the Stark effect of the excited-state structure of single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers located ≲100 nm from the diamond surface. The zero-phonon line (ZPL) emission frequency is controllably varied over a range of 300 GHz. Using high-resolution emission spectroscopy, we observe electric…
Developing approaches to effectively control the charge and magnetic states is critical to the use of magnetic nanostructures in quantum information devices but is still challenging. Here we suggest that the magnetic and charge states of transition-metal (TM) doped single-layer boron-nitride (SLBN) systems can be easi…
We present evidence of cubic Rashba spin splitting in a quasi-two-dimensional electron gas formed at a surface of (001) ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ single crystal from the weak localization or antilocalization (WAL) analysis of the low-temperature magnetoresistance. Our WAL data were well fitted by the model assuming ${m}_…
