We have introduced an organic/inorganic hybrid pn-junction for solar cell applications. Layers of II-VI quantum dots and a metal-phthalocyanine in sequence have been used as n- and p-type materials, respectively, to form a junction. The film of quantum dots has been formed through a layer-by-layer process by replacing…

Stracchino is a short ripened soft cheese mainly produced in the North of Italy. The changes in Stracchino cheese quality are mainly attributable to microbial spoilage and structure breakdown because of enzymatic activity. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of different packaging materials on the shelf li…

Experimental thermal conductivity of bulk materials are often modeled using Debye approximation together with functional forms of relaxation time with fitting parameters. While such models can fit the temperature dependence of thermal conductivity of bulk materials, the Debye approximation leads to large error in the…

We report the fragmentation of brittle, granular aluminum spheres following high velocity impact (0.5-2.0 km/s) on thin steel plates. These spheres, machined from isostatically pressed aluminum powder, represent a prototypical metallic reactive material. The fragments generated by the impacts are collected in a soft-c…

Employing first-principles density-functional-theory-based calculations, we study the electronic structure and magnetoelastic effect in difluoride compounds $M$F${}_{2}$ ($M=\text{Mn}$, Fe, Co, Ni). The magnetoelastic-effect-driven cell-parameter changes across the series are found to exhibit nonmonotonic behavior in…
