Here, we report on the in situ synchrotron inelastic x-ray scattering spectra of Na-borate glasses at high pressure up to 25 GPa. The pressure-induced boron coordination transformation from $^{[3]}\text{B}$ to $^{[4]}\text{B}$ is linear with pressure characterized by a single value of ${(\ensuremath{\partial}\text{ }^…

The structural stability of Mg(BH 4 ) 2, a promising hydrogen storage material, under pressure has been investigated in a diamond anvil cell up to 22 GPa with combined synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The analyses show a structural phase transition around 2.5 GPa and again around 14.4 GPa. An ambi…

The edge states and optical transition energies in carbon nanoribbons are investigated with density-functional calculations. While the ground state of zigzag ribbons is spin polarized, defects at the edges destroy spin polarization and lead to a nonmagnetic ground state. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy will thus show…

Abstract Phase separation of polystyrene (PS) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends was used as a means to segregate PS‐ or PMMA‐functionalized single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in thin films. Dilute solutions (5 wt % in THF) of 1:1 PS/PMMA blends containing the functionalized nanotubes were spin cast and a…

Abstract Poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) networks were prepared from macromonomer diols functionalized with methacrylic anhydride, which allows one to get self‐crosslinkable polymers. Besides, both macromonomers were copolymerized to get copolymer networks with different compositions (namely, PC…

Protein kinases have emerged as a major drug target in the last years. Since more than 500 kinases are encoded in the human genome, cross-reactivity of a majority of kinase inhibitors causes problems. Tools are required for a rapid classification of inhibitors according to their affinity for a certain target to refine…
