The NMR results in iron pnictides BaFe${}_{2}$(As${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$P${}_{x}$)${}_{2}$ and Ba(Fe${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$Co${}_{x}$)${}_{2}$As${}_{2}$ are analyzed based on the self-consistent renormalization (SCR) spin-fluctuation theory. The temperature dependence of the NMR relaxation rate ${T}_{1}^{\ensuremath{-…
The large ferroelectric diode current modulated by bipolar polarization in epitaxial (111) BiFeO3 thin film has been observed. With the survey of different current leakage models, it is found that the space-charge limited current dominates the conduction. For the intrinsic physical understanding, the rectification of…
Liquid-phase exfoliation of graphite is a widely used method to obtain graphene nanosheets, and therefore the development of a simple and efficient exfoliation procedure remains challenging. Here, we present a one-step method of graphene exfoliation in lecithin/chloroform solution. The graphene nanosheets produced by…
With (dumb)bells on: A variety of colloidal stereoisomers (all the same materials) have been prepared through evaporation of emulsions by using symmetric and asymmetric dumbbell-shaped particles (see figure). The colloid configurations are in good agreement with the results of computer simulations.
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is characterized for its high water holding capacity, high crystallinity, an ultrafine fiber network and high tensile strength. This work demonstrates the production of a new interpenetrated polymer network nanocomposite obtained through the incorporation of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) on the BC…
Photoswitch-modified DNA is being studied for applications including light-harvesting molecular motors, photocontrolled drug delivery, gene regulation, and optically mediated assembly of plasmonic metal nanoparticles in DNA-hybridization assays. We study the sequence and hybridization dependence of the photoisomerizat…
Twice as good: Parallel electrochemical oxidation and reduction of a single parent polymer (P1) simultaneously provided two corresponding polymers (P2 and P3), which were easily separated. Upon UV irradiation, the color of the emissions of the P2 and P3 films were drastically different to that of P1 (left). Parallel r…
ABSTRACT In this work, the mechanical and the self‐healing behaviors of an ethylene‐ co ‐methacrylic acid ionomer were investigated in different testing conditions. The self‐healing capability was explored by ballistic impact tests at low‐velocity, midvelocity, and hypervelocity bullet speed; different experimental co…
In the present study, grain boundary (GB) mobility was determined by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using two different techniques: the applied strain method and the adapted interface random walk method. The first method involves a driving force while the second method does not. Nevertheless, both methods led to…
We apply united-atom (UA) nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations to predict the thermal conductivity for amorphous polyethylene at room temperature with chain length (CL) increasing from 4 to 1260. The thermal conductivity is determined by the competition of the two mechanisms: (1) The collision among the UA be…
In this article, we examine the phenomenon of single-crystal halide salt wire growth at the surface of porous materials. We report the use of a single-step casting technique with a supramolecular self-assembly gel matrix that upon drying leads to the growth of single-crystal halide (e.g., NaCl, KCl, and KI) nanowires…
Formation of heteroepitaxy and designing different-shaped heterostructured nanomaterials of metal and semiconductor in solution remains a frontier area of research. However, it is evident that the synthesis of such materials is not straightforward and needs a selective approach to retain both metal and semiconductor i…
Degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) by the thiolytic activity of the PHB depolymerase PhaZ1 from Ralstonia eutropha H16 was analyzed in the presence of different phasins. An Escherichia coli strain was constructed that harbored the genes for PHB synthesis (phaCAB), the phasin PhaP1, and the PHB depolymerase P…
Here we report supramolecular hydrogelators made of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) and small peptides. The covalent linkage of Phe-Phe and NSAIDs results in conjugates that self-assemble in water to form molecular nanofibers as the matrices of hydrogels. When the NSAID is naproxen (1), the resultant hydr…
VO2 (M) thin films with good optical switching properties have been grown by reactive sputtering method. The influence of sputtering parameters on the structural and optical properties of the as-grown VO2 thin films was investigated, and the correlation between the microstructure and optical switching properties were…
We have developed a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) optical phased array incorporating a high-index-contrast subwavelength grating (HCG) for beamforming and beamsteering in a range of ± 1.26° × 1.26°. Our approach needs only a thin single-layer HCG made of silicon, considerably improving its speed thanks to the l…
Breites Lichtspektrum: Goldnanostäbe (Au-NRs) als Antennen auf TiO2 fungieren als Lichtsammeleinheiten auf Basis ihrer lokalisierten Oberflächenplasmonenresonanz. Das Tensid wird dabei durch Oxidation mit HClO4 entfernt. Die Photooxidation von 2-Propanol gelingt sowohl mit einem transversalen als auch einem longitudin…
Energetic collisions of subatomic particles with fixed or moving targets have been very valuable to penetrate into the mysteries of nature. But the mysteries are quite intriguing when projectiles and targets are macroscopically immense. We know that countless debris wandering in space impacted (and still do) large ast…
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is an insulating compound that is structurally similar to graphite. Like graphene, single sheets of BN are atomically flat, and they are of current interest in few-layer hybrid devices, such as transistors and capacitors, that contain insulating components. While graphite and other layer…
A family of dinuclear cobalt complexes with bridging bis(dioxolene) ligands derived from 3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl-1,1'-spirobis(indane-5,5',6,6'-tetrol) (spiroH4) and ancillary ligands based on tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (tpa) has been synthesized and characterized. The bis(dioxolene) bridging ligand is redox-active and…
