Jammed states of frictional granular systems can be induced by shear strain at densities below the isostatic jamming density . It remains unclear, however, how much friction affects this so-called shear jamming. Friction appears in two ways in this type of experiment: friction between particles, and friction between p…
BACKGROUND: Sonothrombolysis is safe and may increase the likelihood of early recanalization in acute ischemic stroke patients. AIMS: In preparation of a phase III clinical trial, we contrast the likelihood of achieving a sustained recanalization and functional independence in a post hoc subgroup analysis of patients…
Simply prepared π-allylnickel complexes were used as external initiators for promoting the polymerization of 2-bromo-3-hexyl-5-chloromagnesiothiophene in a living/controlled chain growth manner to afford regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) with an allyl terminus. The nickel species on the other chain end can initiate…
The association of Ag(+) ions and the early stage of Ag nanoparticle nucleation are investigated from molecular dynamics simulations. Combining special techniques for tackling crystal nucleation from solution with efficient approaches to model redox-reactions, we unravel the structural evolution of forming silver nano…
Until now, the observation of three-phase inclusions in emeralds has been considered a potential indicator of Colombian origin. Nevertheless, emeralds from Afghanistan (Panjshir Valley), China (Davdar), and Zambia (Kafubu and a new deposit at Musakashi) may contain three-phase inclusions resembling those often found i…
New techniques and materials are called for wastewater treatment due to the shortage of worldwide fresh water and the increasing water demand. As a simple and efficient method, adsorption technique has been extensively applied to remove organic and inorganic pollutants from contaminated water. The application of carbo…
Adsorption of plasma proteins to nanomaterial surfaces has a great influence on their bio-functionality. However, there is limited understanding of the relationship between the functional proteins in the protein corona and the biological identity of the materials. Here we show that the in situ generated thrombin in th…
An endocrine disruptor (ED) is a type of xenobiotic compound that can cause serious diseases related to the estrous cycle, as well as various types of cancer. At low ED concentrations, estrogen receptors may respond as they would under physiological conditions. In this work, aptamer‐functionalized multidimensional con…
Our aim is to understand the electronic and steric factors that determine the activity and selectivity of transition-metal catalysts for cross-coupling reactions. To this end, we have used the activation strain model to quantum-chemically analyze the activity of catalyst complexes d(10) -M(L)n toward methane C-H oxida…
Despite the diversity of nanostructures that have been created from block copolymers over the past two decades, the challenging fabrication of polymer nanocapsules bearing regularly sized nanochannels has not been possible until now. In this study, a pseudo miktoarm copolymer μ-(PtBA)(PCEMA)(PEO) 1.14 was prepared. Th…
A novel one-pot synthesis for the subeutectic growth of (111) oriented Si nanowires on an in situ formed nickel nanoparticle catalyst prepared from an inexpensive nickel nitrate precursor is developed. Additionally, anchoring the nickel nanoparticles to a simultaneously reduced graphene oxide support created synergy b…
In order to overcome the limitation of commercial electron beam irradiation (EBI), lignocellulosic rice straw (RS) was pretreated using water soaking-based electron beam irradiation (WEBI). This environment-friendly pretreatment, without the formation (or release) of inhibitory compounds (especially hydroxymethylfurfu…
Long afterglow Sr4Al14O25:Eu,Dy phosphors were introduced into the TiO2 photoanode of CdS quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) as both a scattering and down converting layer, and the photovoltaic performances of the cells were investigated. The results show that the cell with Sr4Al14O25:Eu,Dy achieves a power c…
Collagen/hydroxyapatite nanocomposite scaffolds were prepared by in situ precipitation and freeze‐drying approach. The synthesized collagen/hydroxyapatite nanocomposites were characterized using various modalities. It was revealed that the inorganic phase in the nanocomposite was carbonate‐substituted hydroxyapatite w…
A double-crystal diamond (111) monochromator recently implemented at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) enables splitting of the primary X-ray beam into a pink (transmitted) and a monochromatic (reflected) branch. The first monochromator crystal, with a thickness of ∼100 µm, provides sufficient X-ray transmittance…
This study presents a novel switched reluctance machine (SRM) with modular E‐core stators and multi‐layer common rotors for high reliability applications. The stator is composed of six independent modular E‐cores with the windings wound around the yoke of the E‐cores. The rotor consists of three magnetically independe…
Abstract High‐valent cobalt‐oxo intermediates are proposed as reactive intermediates in a number of cobalt‐complex‐mediated oxidation reactions. Herein we report the spectroscopic capture of low‐spin (S=1/2) CoIV‐oxo species in the presence of redox‐inactive metal ions, such as Sc3+, Ce3+, Y3+, and Zn2+, and the inves…
Enhanced oil recovery by low salinity water (LSW) injection in carbonate reservoirs constitutes one of the main interests for petroleum industry. A molecular mechanism involving acid oil components and the replacement of surface Ca atom by Mg atom has been proposed. To determine the thermodynamic feasibility of this m…
We present the first magnetic phase of an ionic liquid with anion-π interactions, which displays a three-dimensional (3D) magnetic ordering below the Néel temperature, TN = 7.7 K. In this material, called Dimim[FeBr4], an exhaustive and systematic study involving structural and physical characterization (synchrotron X…
The potential of oxidoreductases, such as laccases and peroxidases, to remove organic pollutants from industrial wastewater and process water is addressed in this short review, with an emphasis on the peroxidase work completed or in progress in the authors’ laboratory. The major drawback to this treatment is the cost…
