The recent discovery of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) at the CoFeB/MgO interface has accelerated the development of next generation high-density non-volatile memories by utilizing perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions (p-MTJs). However, the insufficient interfacial PMA in the typical Ta/CoFeB/MgO system wi…
The misfolding and aberrant assembly of peptides and proteins into fibrillar aggregates is the hallmark of many pathologies. Fibril formation is accompanied by oligomeric species thought to be the primary pathogenic agents in many of these diseases. With the aim of identifying the structural determinants responsible f…
Although various Si-based graphene nanocomposites provide enhanced electrochemical performance, these candidates still yield low initial coloumbic efficiency, electrical disconnection, and fracture due to huge volume changes after extended cycles lead to severe capacity fading and increase in internal impedance. There…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Pectin is a complex macromolecule, the fine structure of which is influenced by many factors. It is used as a gelling, thickening and emulsifying agent in a wide range of applications, from food to pharmaceutical products. Current industrial pectin extraction processes are based on fruit peel, a w…
The authors show that cuprate pseudogap physics can be well understood within the same spin-fermion model which yields $d$-wave superconductivity and non-Fermi-liquid physics in the normal state. Thus, the spin-fermion model re-emerges as a strong candidate for the theoretical model of the cuprates.
Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is a popular and important fruit tree in tropical and subtropical parts of the world. The fruit is consumed worldwide as fresh fruit and vegetable or used as processed product. The fruit is healthy and delicious and the whole plant parts including fruit, root, bark, peel, seeds and pulp are a…
Abstract Inorganic semiconductor‐based broadband photodetectors are ubiquitous in imaging technologies such as digital cameras and photometers. Herein a broadband organic photodiode (OPD) that has performance metrics comparable or superior to inorganic photodiodes over the same spectral range is reported. The photodio…
A drop of water deposited on a cold plate freezes into an ice drop with a pointy tip. While this phenomenon clearly finds its origin in the expansion of water upon freezing, a quantitative description of the tip singularity has remained elusive. Here we demonstrate how the geometry of the freezing front, determined by…
Lignin, one of the major components of lignocellulosic biomass, plays an inhibitory role on the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose. This work examines the role of lignin in pretreated hardwood, where extents of cellulose hydrolysis decrease, rather than increase with increasing severity of liquid hot water pretreatment…
Advancing perovskite solar cell technologies toward their theoretical power conversion efficiency (PCE) requires delicate control over the carrier dynamics throughout the entire device. By controlling the formation of the perovskite layer and careful choices of other materials, we suppressed carrier recombination in t…
We performed detailed temperature-dependent optical measurements on optimally doped Ba 0.6 K 0.4 Fe 2 As 2 single crystal. We examine the changes of the in-plane optical conductivity spectral weight in the normal state and the evolution of the superconducting condensate in the superconducting state. In the normal stat…
A filtration-taping method was demonstrated to fabricate carbon nanotube (CNT) emitters. This method shows many good features, including high mechanical adhesion, good electrical contact, low temperature, organic-free, low cost, large size, and suitability for various CNT materials and substrates. These good features…
Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) has the advantage of an aqueous and industrial-scale production route. No other approaches can rival the RGO field effect transistor platform in terms of cost (
Albeit widely studied, the structure of the antimalarial drug (±)-mefloquine hydrochloride is still a controversial issue. A combination of X-ray powder diffraction, theoretical calculations and Fourier transform–infrared spectroscopy is used to unambiguously determine the crystal structure of the molecule in its acti…
In the fabrication of phase change random access memory (PRAM) devices, high temperature thermal processes are inevitable. We investigate the thermal stability of Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST) which is a prototypical phase change material. After high temperature process, voids of phase change material exist at the interface be…
The dispersion characteristics of AlN-4.5 wt% Y 2 O 3 powder mixture by various dispersants were investigated in ethanol and methyethly-ketone (MEK) solvents. In general, the cationic polymer dispersants demonstrated superior dispersion of the powder as compared to the non-ionic ester-type dispersants or anionic phosp…
The valley valve effect was predicted in a straight zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGR) p/n junction. In this work, we address a possible valley selection rule in a Y-shaped ZGR junction. By modeling the system as a three-terminal device and calculating the conductance spectrum, we found that the valley valve effect coul…
Abstract We succeeded in synthesizing a novel cuprate compound, [Cu2(CO3)2(bpp)2.5]·5.5H2O (1) (bpp: 1,3-bis(4-pyridyl)propane). Its structural determination reveals that 1 has a ladder-like configuration formed by the alternate stacking of two Cu2+ ions and a CO32− ion, each of which is linked by a bpp molecule. The…
Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) is widely exploited as an epoxy resin in adhesives and coatings. In this paper, it is used as an oligomer matrix for silica-filled nanocomposites. Rheological measurements show that the pure matrix obeys power-law relaxation dynamics in the vicinity of the dynamic glass transiti…
The oxidized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and valine-functionalized SWCNTs were prepared and characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ra…
