The generation and control of the valley-polarized current play the key roles in valleytronics applications, but still remain as tough challenges. We propose a general idea of switchable valley injection, and predict theoretically that a ferromagnet-covered graphene junction would take the role of a valley injector, w…

Analysis of X-ray diffraction data on crystals of boron carbide and its derivatives reveals an increase of 1.5–3 times in the thermal vibration amplitude (U eq) of the central atom in the XYZ group, compared to other atoms in the structure. Reasons for this phenomenon are analyzed to answer the question of whether thi…

We have successfully demonstrated the proof-of-concept for stretchable organic photovoltaics (OPVs) using a transfer-printed microcell array, which represents the first stretchable OPVs using conventional device layouts that employ indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes. Upon releasing the pre-strain, the interconnects ado…

Hyperbranched poly(amidoamine) (HPAMAM), structurally analogous to polyamidoamine dendrimer (PAMAM) dendrimers, has been suggested to be an effective carrier for gene delivery. In the present study, glutamic acid-modified hPAMAM was developed as a novel non-viral gene carrier for the first time. The hPAMAM was synthes…

BACKGROUND: Determination of quartz by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) is not specific: the obtained results are influenced by matrix components, some of which cause spectral interference. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of dust components responsible for spectral interference with quart…

Reduction of noise in the transmission path is a very important environmental problem. The standard method to reduce this noise level is the use of acoustic barriers. In this paper, an acoustic metamaterial based on sound transmission through subwavelength slits, is tailored to be used as an acoustic barrier. This sys…

Using a new multi-electron multi-ion coincidence apparatus and soft x-ray synchrotron radiation we have determined branching ratios to final Xe n+ states with 2 < n < 9 from the 4d −1 , 4p −1 , 4s −1 , 3d −1 and 3p −1 Xe + hole states. The coincident electron spectra give information on the Auger cascade pathways. We…
