Self-organization of moving objects in hydrodynamic environments has recently attracted considerable attention in connection to natural phenomena and living systems. However, the underlying physical mechanism is much less clear due to the intrinsically nonequilibrium nature, compared with self-organization of thermal…
RATIONALE: Obesity, especially truncal obesity, is a risk factor for asthma incidence, prevalence, and severity. Chitinase 3-like-1 (Chi3l1) is an evolutionarily conserved moiety that plays a critical role in antipathogen and Th2 responses. However, the mechanisms that underlie the association between asthma and obesi…
Porous silk scaffolds, which are considered to be natural polymers, cannot be used alone because they have a long degradation rate, which makes it difficult for them to be replaced by the surrounding tissue. Scaffolds composed of synthetic polymers, such as PLGA, have a short degradation rate, lack hydrophilicity and…
Harmonic and quasi-harmonic thermal properties of two isostructural simple oxides (periclase, MgO, and lime, CaO) are computed with ab initio periodic simulations based on the density-functional-theory (DFT). The more polarizable character of calcium with respect to magnesium cations is found to dramatically affect th…
A gold(I) complex containing an open-shell luminescent (3,5-dichloro-4-pyridyl)bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)methyl (PyBTM) radical was prepared. The complex showed fluorescence centered mainly on the coordinated PyBTM ligand. The photophysical and photochemical properties were positively modulated upon coordination to Au…
Long-lived nuclear spin states have a relaxation time much longer than the longitudinal relaxation time T1. Long-lived states extend significantly the time scales that may be probed with magnetic resonance, with possible applications to transport and binding studies, and to hyperpolarised imaging. Rapidly rotating met…
Effect of rare earth (RE) element cerium on castability, mechanical properties and electric conductivity of Al–0.3Si–0.2Mg alloy was investigated. With Ce addition, the fluidity of Al–0.3Si–0.2Mg alloys is increased and the hot tear sensitivity (HTS) is decreased remarkably, and the optimum Ce addition level is about…
Three-dimensional interconnected vanadium pentoxide nanonetworks as cathodes for rechargable lithium batteries are successfully synthesized via a quick gelation followed by annealing. The interconnected structure ensures the electron transport of each unit. And their inner porous structure buffer the volume change ove…
The preparation of sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) represents an active area of research for both sustainability and renewable energy. Both Ru(II) and Os(II) metal sensitizers offer unique photophysical and electrochemical properties that arise from the intrinsic electronic properties, that is, the…
Multicomponent superconductivity is realized in multiband superconductors when an interband pairing interaction is considerably weaker than the intraband interactions. There is a new quantum phase that originates from the interband phase difference in this superconducting condensate. Firstly, we discuss the applicabil…
Capacity loss and voltage fade upon electrochemical charge–discharge cycling observed in lithium-rich layered cathode oxides (Li[Li x Mn y TM 1– x – y ]O 2, where TM = Ni, Co, or Fe) have recently been correlated with a gradual phase transformation featuring the formation of a surface reconstructed layer (SRL) that ev…
We present the design and implementation of a highly compact femtosecond electron diffractometer working at electron energies up to 100 keV. We use a multi-body particle tracing code to simulate electron bunch propagation through the setup and to calculate pulse durations at the sample position. Our simulations show t…
Tailoring of semiconducting metal oxide nanostructures, which possess controlled pore size and concentration, is of great value to accurately detect various volatile organic compounds in exhaled breath, which act as potential biomarkers for many health conditions. In this work, we have developed a very simple and robu…
Sir: We read with great interest the article entitled “A Novel and Effective Strategy for the Isolation of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells: Minimally Manipulated Adipose-Derived Stem Cells for More Rapid and Safe Stem Cell Therapy” by Raposio et al.1 Foremost, we want to congratulate the authors for this work and this inte…
The melting and crystallization behaviors of model calcium–magnesium–alumino‐silicate ( CMAS ) compositions relevant to the degradation of thermal barrier coatings ( TBC s) were investigated. A primary goal was to establish a baseline for studies on CMAS reactions with TBC materials, reported separately, and their pot…
Serial crystallography, using either femtosecond X-ray pulses from free-electron laser sources or short synchrotron-radiation exposures, has the potential to reveal metalloprotein structural details while minimizing damage processes. However, deriving a self-consistent set of Bragg intensities from numerous still-crys…
We have studied structural and magnetic properties of Ta|CoFeB|MgO heterostructures using cross-section transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron energy loss spectrum (EELS) imaging, and vibrating sample magnetometry. From the TEM studies, the CoFeB layer is found to be predominantly amorphous for as deposited…
A novel BN-fused coronene derivative 1,5,9-triaza-2,6,10-triphenylboracoronene (1) has been successfully synthesized in one step from 2,3,6,7,9,10-hexamethoxy-1,5,9-triamino-triphenylene. Compound 1 has been investigated using photophysical, electrochemical, and molecular simulation methods. Interestingly, three pheny…
We report on current-induced domain wall motion in $\mathrm{Ta}/\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{o}}_{20}\mathrm{F}{\mathrm{e}}_{60}{\mathrm{B}}_{20}/\mathrm{MgO}$ nanowires. Domain walls are observed to move against the electron flow when no magnetic field is applied, while a field along the nanowires strongly affects the domain w…
An enzyme-free electrochemical immunosensor based on the host-guest nanonets of N,N-bis(ferrocenoyl)-diaminoethane/β-cyclodextrins/poly(amidoamine) dendrimer-encapsulated Au nanoparticles (Fc-Fc/β-CD/PAMAM-Au) for procalcitonin (PCT) detection has been developed in this study. The signal probe was constructed as follo…
