A mode-coupling theory for the motion of a strongly forced probe particle in a dense colloidal suspension is presented. Starting point is the Smoluchowski equation for $N$ bath and a single probe particle. The probe performs Brownian motion under the influence of a strong constant and uniform external force ${F}_{\mat…

In this article we study the ferromagnetic behavior of ABC-stacked trilayer graphene. This is done using a nearest-neighbor tight-binding model, in the presence of long-range Coulomb interactions. For a given electron-electron interaction $g$ and doping level $n$, we determine whether the total energy is minimized for…

Comprehensive characterization of defects formed in bulk ZnO single crystals co-implanted with N and Zn as well as N and O atoms is performed by means of optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) complemented by Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. It is shown that in addition to intrinsic defects such…

ABSTRACT Isosorbide, succinyl chloride and isophthaloyl chloride are polycondensed under various reaction conditions. The heating in bulk with or without catalysts as well in an aromatic solvent without catalyst, and polycondensation with the addition of pyridine only yield low molar mass copolyesters. However, heatin…

The paper describes and explains the most surprising Woodʼs anomaly: the total absorption of a plane wave by a shallow metallic grating. After a numerical and experimental evidence of the total absorption, we develop a quantitative phenomenological theory. Assuming that the anomalies are caused by the excitation of su…

We present a novel approach to prepare ultrathin, biocompatible films based on cross-linking of multi-functionalized, star-branched poly(ethylene glycols) (STAR-PEGs) with tunable film thicknesses of 4-200 nm. A two-component mixture of amine- and epoxy-terminated four-arm STAR-PEGs (MN=2000 g/mol) was spin-coated on…

Previous studies of the interaction of water with graphene-coated surfaces have been limited to flat (smooth) surfaces. Here we created a rough surface by nanopatterning and then draped the surface with a single-layer graphene sheet. We found that the ultrasheer graphene drape prevents the penetration of water into th…

Bacteria have evolved mechanisms for the hydrogenation of unsaturated fatty acids. Hydroxy fatty acid formation may be the first step in such a process; however, knowledge of the structural and mechanistic aspects of this reaction is scarce. Recently, myosin cross-reactive antigen was shown to be a bacterial FAD-conta…
