The mechanism of plastic deformation in bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) is widely believed to be based on a shear transformation zone (STZ). This model assumes that a shear-induced atomic rearrangement occurs at local clusters that are a few to hundreds of atoms in size. It was recently postulated that the potential ener…
Molybdenum disulfide is a promising candidate for the anode material in lithium-ion batteries due to its high theoretical specific capacity. However, volume change during cycling causes poor cycling stability and rate performance, and improving cycle life is a major research challenge. Herein, we present a strategy by…
We report a study of the effects of charge transfer on electrical properties of CdO/SnTe heterostructures. A series of structures with variable SnTe thicknesses were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. Because of an extreme type III band offset with the valence band edge of SnTe located at 1.5 eV above the conductio…
Inspired by the silicide technology in manufacturing silicon devices and the ongoing lack of knowledge on post-metallization annealing in realizing oxide devices, we investigated post-contact annealing for solution-processed InGaZnO transistors. Low-temperature annealing in air is found to significantly improve device…
Abstract We present a comprehensive investigation into the tunable combustion of on‐chip porous silicon energetic materials. The exothermic reaction occurs between high surface area nanoscale porous silicon and a solution‐deposited sodium perchlorate oxidizer that penetrates each pore. The resulting burn rates spanned…
In Mexico Agave angustifolia has traditionally been used to treat inflammation. The aim of this study was to measure the anti-inflammatory effect of the extract of A. angustifolia, the isolation and identification of active compounds. From the acetone extract two active fractions were obtained, (AsF13 and AaF16). For…
Abstract A polymeric film of Alizarin Red S was formed on a glassy carbon electrode and used for electrochemical detection of Levodopa (L‐DOPA) and homovanillic acid (HVA) in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA). The sensor represented excellent electrocatalytic activity for their oxidations. The resultant differential…
We examine the internal structure of milk casein micelles using the contrast variation method in Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). Experiments were performed with casein dispersions of different origins (i.e., milk powder or fresh milk) and extended to very low q-values (∼9 × 10(-4) Å(-1)), thus making it possibl…
The efficient utilization of solar spectrum and photo-induced charge transport are critical aspects in improving the light conversion efficiency of solar cells and hydrogen generation. In this work, reduced TiO2 nanotube arrays with CdS decoration were fabricated through the simple cathodic polarization of annealed Ti…
Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been widely used for intraocular lenses (IOL) but may lead to posterior capsule opacification (PCO) after implantation due to its undesirable hydrophilicity and surface morphology. A novel methacrylisobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-co-poly methyl methacrylate copolymer…
Abstract A novel ferrocenium capped amphiphilic pillar[5]arene (FCAP) was synthesized and self‐assembled to cationic vesicles in aqueous solution. The cationic vesicles, displaying low cytotoxicity and significant redox‐responsive behavior due to the redox equilibrium between ferrocenium cations and ferrocenyl groups,…
An austenitic stainless steel (TP 347H FG) was coated with a synthetic deposit and exposed, under laboratory conditions simulating straw-firing at 560 °C, for 1 week. Microscopic, diffraction, and spectroscopic techniques were employed for cross-sectional and plan view “top-down” microstructural characterization of th…
Intrinsic and n-type Ge 1– y Sn y alloys with y = 0.003–0.11 have been grown on Ge-buffered Si via reactions of Ge 3 H 8 and SnD 4 hydrides using UHV-CVD techniques. The films exhibit large thicknesses ( t > 600 nm), low dislocation densities (10 7 /cm 2 ), planar surfaces (AFM RMS ≈ 2 for intrinsic films) and mostly…
Here, we describe a simple approach for the efficient immobilization of poly- l -lysine (PLL) impregnated glucose oxidase (GOx) at a manganese dioxide (MnO 2 )-decorated chemically reduced graphene oxide (CRGO) composite film modified electrode. The MnO 2 /CRGO film was analyzed by various techniques such as scanning…
We develop a method for realizing coherent perfect absorption in thin metamaterial systems, based on the coupled-mode theory of Fano resonance. Coherent perfect absorption refers to the complete absorption of symmetric plane waves incident on opposite sides of the system, due to critical coupling into the dissipative…
The optical properties of e-shape plasmonic nanocavities have been studied. Due to the destructive interference of the quadrupole resonance of the c-shape nanoring with the overlapping dipolar resonance of the nanorod, a tunable Fano resonance within a wide range of spectra from visible light to mid-infrared (mid-IR)…
Combined experimental and density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) studies were carried out to investigate the structural and electronic properties of a terpyridyl-phenylimidazole system covalently linked to pyrene, 10-(4-[2,2':6',2"-terpyridine]terpyridin-4'-yl-phenyl)-9H-…
How do the folding mechanisms of multidomain proteins depend on protein topology? We addressed this question by developing an Ising-like structure-based model and applying it for the analysis of free-energy landscapes and folding kinetics of an example protein, Escherichia coli dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). DHFR has…
In this paper, we numerically and experimentally demonstrate classical analogy of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) with simultaneously exciting the electric and the magnetic resonance. The cut wire and the split-ring resonator (SRR) are chosen as the bright and the quasi-dark EIT resonators, respectively…
Production of paper-based packaging is growing at the present moment and has great future prospects. However, the development of new packaging concepts is creating a demand for an improvement in the mechanical properties of paper. Extensibility is one of these properties. Highly extensible papers have the potential to…
