The mechanism of the gold nanocluster-catalyzed aerobic homocoupling of arylboronic acids has been elucidated by means of DFT calculations with Au20(-) as a model cluster for the Au:[poly(N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one)] catalyst. We found that oxygen affects the adsorption of phenylboronic acid and, by lowering the energy b…

ABSTRACT Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) based nanocomposites were prepared to investigate the effects of types of nanoclays. Five different organically modified nanoclays (Cloisites®15A, 25A, and 30B, and Nanofils®5 and 8) were used. Two rubbery compatibilizers, ethylene‐glycidyl methacrylate (E‐GMA) and ethylene‐butyl acryl…

Photoactivatable (caged) bioeffectors provide a way to remotely trigger or disable biochemical pathways in living organisms at a desired time and location with a pulse of light (uncaging), but the phototoxicity of ultraviolet (UV) often limits its application. In this study, we have demonstrated the near-infrared (NIR…

A bidentate Schiff-base (SB) ligand was synthesized and bonded on the side chains of polysulfone (PSF) through several polymer reactions by molecular design, and the bidentate Schiff-base-ligand-functionalized PSF, PSF-SB, was obtained. On this basis, new types of polymer–rare-earth complexes, namely, binary complex P…

We calculate the angular dependence of the x-ray linear and circular dichroism at the ${L}_{2,3}$ edges of $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-Fe(II) Phthalocyanine (FePc) thin films using a ligand-field model with full configuration interaction. We find the best agreement with the experimental spectra for a mixed ground state of $…

Abstract This work presents the results of a thermal balancing, heat removal and supply mechanism via high temperature heat spreaders integrated to the solid oxide cell (SOC) stacks. Planar alkali metal heat pipes for almost isothermal two‐directional heat transfer at high power densities are incorporated into the met…

The pressure-induced new structures and properties of osmium hydrides were systematically explored in a wide pressure range 0–300 GPa using ab initio methods. Three stable stoichiometries, that is, OsH, OsH 3, and OsH 6, are predicted above 50 GPa. The above hydrides exhibit metallic character with the notable band st…

We prepared graphite films using typical Shirakawa-type and stretchable polyacetylene (PA) films as precursors through a morphology-retaining carbonization. A macroscopically aligned PA film was prepared from the drawable PA film using a mechanical-stretching procedure. The degree of orientation of the aligned PA film…

Star-shaped Au nanoparticles (Au nanostars, AuNS) have been developed to improve the plasmonic sensitivity, but their application has largely been limited to single-particle probes. We herein describe a AuNS clustering assay based on nanoscale self-assembly of multiple AuNS and which further increases detection sensit…

Graphene, in single layer or multi-layer forms, holds great promise for future electronics and high-temperature applications. Resistance to oxidation, an important property for high-temperature applications, has not yet been extensively investigated. Controlled thinning of multi-layer graphene (MLG), e.g., by plasma o…

Hagfish slime threads are assembled from protein-based bundles of intermediate filaments (IFs) that undergo a strain-induced α-helical coiled-coil to β-sheet transition. Draw processing of native fibers enables the creation of mechanically tuned materials, and under optimized conditions this process results in mechani…

Hexasubstituted C3 -symmetric benzenes with three oligophenylenevinylene (OPV) arms and three pyridyl or phenyl substituents are shape-persistent star mesogens that are sterically crowded in the center. Such molecular structures possess large void spaces between their arms, which have to be filled in condensed phases.…

We have calculated the N 1s near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra of nitrogen-doped monolayer graphene (NG) using density functional theory (DFT) with the equivalent core hole approximation. The hexavacancy (6V) defect and its dependence on the nitrogen-doping concentration have been analyzed in d…

Metamaterial-based perfect absorbers have attracted considerable attention due to their potential for practical applications. The existing absorbers, however, are mostly polarization insensitive or only sensitive to one direction, which is inapplicable in some areas. Polarization tunable or high absorption in two orth…

Wood pulps with certain amounts of lignin were successfully dissolved in aqueous NaOH/urea solution by subjecting them to the dilute acid pretreatment. After the acid hydrolysis, viscosity-average degree of polymerization (DPv) of the pulps decreased. The results revealed that both the DPv and lignin contents influenc…
