Highly efficient light absorption and charge separation within the photosystem and reaction center (RC) complexes of photosynthetic plants and bacteria are of great interest for solar cell and photo detector applications, since they offer almost unity quantum yield and expected ultimate power conversion efficiencies o…
We present experimental results demonstrating the phenomenon of acoustic transparency with a significant slowdown of sound propagation realized with a series of paired detuned acoustic resonators (DAR) side-attached to a waveguide. The phenomenon mimics the electromagnetically induced transparency in atomic physics. B…
In this study, we propose a novel approach to evaluate virtual screening (VS) experiments based on the analysis of docking output data. This approach, which we refer to as docking data feature analysis (DDFA), consists of two steps. First, a set of features derived from the docking output data is computed and assigned…
The oxidation of various alkanes catalyzed by [Mn(V)(N)(CN)4](2-) using various terminal oxidants at room temperature has been investigated. Excellent yields of alcohols and ketones (>95%) are obtained using H2O2 as oxidant and CF3CH2OH as solvent. Good yields (>80%) are also obtained using (NH4)2[Ce(NO3)6] in CF3CH2O…
Nanoelectromechnical system (NEMS) is seen as one of the most promising candidates for next generation extreme low power electronics that can operate as a versatile switch/memory/sensor/display element. One of the main challenges toward this goal lies in the fabrication difficulties of ultrascaled NEMS required for hi…
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate nanobubbles carrying androgen receptor (AR) siRNA and their in vitro and in vivo anti-tumor effects, when combined with ultrasonic irradiation, on androgen-independent prostate cancer (AIPC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nanobubbles carrying AR siRNA were prepared us…
In this work, a novel approach to obtain high yield to poly-tert-butylglycerolethers by glycerol etherification reaction with tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) is proposed. The limit of this reaction is the production of poly-ethers, which inhibits the formation of poly-ethers potentially usable in the blend with conventional…
The peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall constitutes the main defense barrier of bacteria against environmental insults and acts as communication interface. The biochemistry of this macromolecule has been well characterized throughout the years but recent discoveries have unveiled its chemical plasticity under environmental s…
Self-diffusion coefficients of cations and solvent molecules were determined with (1)H NMR in mixtures of 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (Bmim(+)) tetrafluoroborate (BF4(-)), hexafluorophosphate (PF6(-)), trifluoromethanesulfonate (TfO(-)), and bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (TFSI(-)) with acetonitrile (AN), γ-butyr…
NiFe2O4(111) ultrathin films (3–5 nm) have been grown by oxygen-assisted molecular beam epitaxy and integrated as effective spin-filter barriers. Structural and magnetic characterizations have been performed in order to investigate the presence of defects that could limit the spin filtering efficiency. These analyses…
We experimentally demonstrated an approach based on dipole and dual-quadrupole coupling to construct a planar metamaterial supporting multi-spectral plasmon induced transparency. The structure consists of two short silver wires (dipole) and two long silver wires (dual-quadrupole). The in-plane coupling between the dip…
The structural and electrical properties of ZnV 2 O 6 under high pressure have been studied using Raman spectroscopy, in situ angle dispersive X-ray diffraction (ADXRD), and alternating current (AC) impedance spectroscopy. The results of Raman spectra indicate that ZnV 2 O 6 undergoes a reversible structural change ar…
Here, we present a room temperature operating chemi-sensor based on a graphene film that shows sensitivity to NO2 up to a 50 parts-per-billion (ppb) with extremely limited interference from relative humidity and can be also calibrated in a sub-parts-per-million (ppm) range with a response and recovery time of few seco…
Abstract magnified image It is known that the two polymorphs of TiO2, rutile and anatase, show different n‐type doping behaviour: while heavy Nb‐doping makes anatase a transparent conductor, rutile remains insulating. The reason for that is electron self‐trapping by Ti(4+/3+) transitions in rutile, which is absent in…
Quantitative high resolution transmission electron microscopy studies of intentionally grown 1InN/nGaN short-period superlattices (SLs) were performed. The structures were found to consist of an InxGa1−xN monolayer with an Indium content of x = 0.33 instead of the intended x = 1. Self-consistent calculations of the ba…
Polyvinylidene fluoride homopolymer thin films have been prepared by the Langmuir-Blodgett technique, and their electrical properties have comprehensively been studied. The polyvinylidene fluoride homopolymer films show better ferroelectricity with higher polarization and higher breakdown electric field than that of t…
Acenes are a traditional class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) which attracted considerable interest during the last decade because of their outstanding p-channel semiconductor properties. More recently, N-heteroacenes have been prepared. These molecules have been shown to be more stable and can exhibit n-c…
Hall elements were fabricated based on high quality chemical vapor deposition grown graphene, and their performance limit was explored. The as-fabricated graphene Hall element exhibits current-related sensitivity of up to 2093 V/AT under 200 μA, and magnetic resolution of around 1 mG/Hz0.5 at 3 kHz. This ultrahigh sen…
Poly(phenylacetylene) (PPA) bearing dendritic oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) as pendants was synthesized, and its thermoresponsiveness and helical conformation were investigated. Despite the steric hindrance of the bulky pendants in the homopolymer PPA-OEG, the chirality could be efficiently transferred from pendant ala…
Solvent screening is a critical aspect of the nanomorphological control of low-cost, all-solution-processed bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic cells. In order to reveal the correlations between solvent/solvent mixtures and the bulk heterojunction nanomorphologies during solution-processing, we constructed a mult…
