The random process theory (RPT) has been widely applied to predict the joint probability distribution functions (PDFs) of asperity heights and curvatures of rough surfaces. A check of the predictions of RPT against the actual statistics of numerically generated random fractal surfaces and of real rough surfaces has be…

Persistent phosphors are a specific type of luminescent materials having the unique ability to emit light long after the excitation has ended. They are commonly used as emergency signage in near ideal, isothermal indoor situations. Recently, their energy storage capacity was relied on for outdoor situations, e.g. for…

Self-assembly of block copolymers is a powerful motif for spontaneously forming well-defined nanostructures over macroscopic areas. Yet, the inherent energy minimization criteria of self-assembly give rise to a limited library of structures; diblock copolymers naturally form spheres on a cubic lattice, hexagonally pac…

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-catalyzed hydrogelation has been extensively explored and found wide applications. Spectroscopic and electrochemical approaches are commonly employed for the detection of ALP activity. Herein, by rational design of a fluorescence probe Fmoc-K(FITC)FFYp (P1) (where FITC is fluorescein), we in…

Metallic helical metamaterials give rise to broadband and scalable chiro‐optical effects orders of magnitude higher than found in nature. While arrays of gold helices have been suggested as compact circular polarizers, where a large difference of the diagonal elements of the Jones transmission matrix is desired, chira…

Slip strengths of 〈a〉 basal, 〈a〉 prism, and 〈c+a〉 pyramidal systems in commercially pure zirconium have been determined using micro-cantilever testing. A range of single crystal cantilevers 0.5 μm to 10 μm wide, oriented for single slip were prepared using focused ion beam (FIB) machining and subsequently deflected us…
