Full size creep test specimens, i.e., conventional uniaxial creep test specimen and Bridgman notch specimens are usually used to determine the full set of material constants for any creep model. However, in many situations, sufficient material is not available for theses specimens to be manufactured from it. Therefore…
Cyclotrimethylene trinitramine (RDX) crystalizes in the orthorhombic α-phase at the ambient pressure and temperature. In principle, the point defects commonly found in monatomic crystals, such as vacancies and interstitials, may exist in RDX as well. However, in molecular crystals one encounters additional point defec…
Porous microspheres capable of delivering high payloads of biomolecules with suitable biodegradability and biocompatibility would be valuable in delivery systems to aid tissue regeneration. This study describes a facile, scalable technique to produce biodegradable porous microspheres by combining continuous ink‐jettin…
In this work, a picosecond diode pumped solid state laser and a nanosecond Nd:YAG laser have been used for the annealing and the partial nano-crystallization of an amorphous silicon layer. These experiments were conducted as an alternative/complementary to plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method for fabricati…
A phosphoryl Ru(II) polypyridyl complex was prepared in a one-pot process. Theoretical analysis suggests that the phosphoryl ligand may be viewed as a strong σ-donor anionic phosphine L-type ligand. State-of-the-art free-energy profile calculations on the excited states demonstrate that both favorable thermodynamic an…
Novel magnetic fly ash/poly(acrylic acid) (FA/PAA) composite microgels were designed as a selective adsorbent toward Pb 2+ ion based on the “treating wastewater with wastes” strategy. Magnetic fly ash (FA) containing magnetic iron oxides was selected as an inorganic cross-linker to produce magnetic FA/PAA composite mi…
We report on plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxial growth of GaN nanowires (NWs) on Si(111) substrates with a thin amorphous Al2O3 buffer layer deposited by atomic layer deposition. Comparison of nucleation kinetics shows that presence of amorphous Al2O3 buffer significantly enhances spontaneous nucleation of GaN N…
Abstract A novel design of optical filter based on photonic crystal structure is proposed in this paper. For designing the proposed filter we introduce an L3 resonant cavity between the input and output waveguides. We study the impact of different parameters on the filtering behavior of the structure using plane wave…
The evolution of mechanical stress during Volmer-Weber growth of thin films is complex, often including a reversible stress evolution during interruptions of film deposition. The underlying mechanism for stress evolution during growth interruptions has been extensively debated, but remains unclear. In this work, in si…
Choline oxidase from Arthrobacter globiformis, which is involved in the biosynthesis of glycine betaine from choline, has been extensively characterized in its mechanistic and structural properties. Despite the knowledge gained on the enzyme, the details of substrate access to the active site are not fully understood.…
Mu-crystallin (CRYM), first described as a structural component of the eye lens in marsupials, has been characterized as an NADPH-dependent cytosolic T3 thyroid hormone (triiodothyronine) binding protein. More recently, CRYM has also been associated with ketimine reductase activity. Here, we report three crystal struc…
Abstract Data are presented on chromitites from the northern and southern sheets of the Il’chir ophiolite complex (Ospa–Kitoi and Khara-Nur (Kharanur) massifs). The new and published data are used to consider similarities and differences between ore chrome-spinel from the chromitites of the northern and southern ophio…
The development of novel xyloglucan-block-poly(ϵ-caprolactone) (XGO-b-PCL) nanoparticles coated with the mucoadhesive polysaccharide chitosan is described. XGO-b-PCL nanoparticles show monodisperse size distribution (Rh = 50 nm). Curcumin is successfully encapsulated within the PCL core within drug to polymer ratio of…
We study the finite-temperature phase diagram of the Heisenberg-Kitaev model on a three-dimensional hyperhoneycomb lattice. Using semiclassical analysis and classical Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate quantum and thermal order-by-disorder, as well as the magnetic-ordering temperature. We find the parameter regim…
We present the observation of a complete bandgap and collective spin wave excitation in two-dimensional magnonic crystals comprised of arrays of nanoscale antidots and nanodots, respectively. Considering that the frequencies dealt with here fall in the microwave band, these findings can be used for the development of…
A potential end-point in the miniaturization of electronic devices lies in the field of molecular electronics, where molecules perform the function of single components. To date, hydrogen tautomerism in unimolecular switches has been restricted to the central macrocycle of porphyrin-type molecules. The present work re…
A model Zr41.25Ti13.75Ni10Cu12.5Be22.5 (at.%) bulk metallic glass (BMG) is selected to explore the structural evolution on the atomic scale with decreasing temperature down to cryogenic level using high energy X-ray synchrotron radiation. We discover a close correlation between the atomic structure evolution and the s…
Quantum emitters such as NV-centers or quantum dots can be used as single-photon sources. To improve their performance, they can be coupled to microcavities or nano-antennas. Plasmonic antennas offer an appealing solution as they can be used with broadband emitters. When properly designed, these antennas funnel light…
Flat band potential (Vfb) is one of the most important physical parameters to study and understand semiconductor materials. However, the influence of surface states on the evaluating Vfb of titanium oxide (TiO2) and other semiconductor materials through a Mott-Schottky plot is ignored. Our study indicated that the inf…
Pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (SH) is an uncommon benign or low-grade malignant tumor. Multicentric SH and SH with lymph node metastasis have rarely been reported. The present report describes a case of pulmonary SH with lymph node metastasis in a middle-aged female. A nodule was found incidentally in the lower left…
