Attachment of chemical substituents (such as polar moieties) constitutes an efficient and convenient way to modify physical and chemical properties of conjugated polymers and oligomers. Associated modifications in the molecular electronic states can be comprehensively described by examining scattering of excitons in t…
Abstract This paper demonstrates the growth of InGaN nanorods and lateral growth over nanorod arrays using molecular beam epitaxy. It is shown that nitrogen rich growth conditions result in a nanorod array and that, by changing to metal rich conditions, lateral growth may be enhanced to coalesce the nanorods into a co…
S-Adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) participates in a wide range of methylation and other group-transfer reactions and also serves as the precursor for two groups of quorum-sensing molecules that function as regulators of the production of virulence factors in Gram-negative bacteria. The synthesis of AdoMet is catalyzed by…
Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of monodisperse 'smart' nanogels that exhibit a sharp volume phase transition at physiologically relevant temperatures and pH values. The nanogels were prepared by precipitation copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and propylacrylic acid (PAA). Briefly…
Samples of nanoscale hematite, α-Fe2O3, with different surface geometries and properties have been studied with inelastic time-of-flight neutron scattering. The 15 nm diameter nanoparticles previously shown to have two collective magnetic excitation modes in separate triple-axis neutron scattering studies have been st…
Transport states in disordered organic semiconductors are widely accepted to be Gaussian distributed with a rather narrow variance (width) of the order of roughly 100–150 meV. This is a result of intensive analysis of experimental data and theoretical work using different model assumptions on hopping transport. For th…
The melting of argon clusters ArN is investigated by applying a parallel-tempering Monte Carlo algorithm for all cluster sizes in the range from 55 to 309 atoms. Extrapolation to the bulk gives a melting temperature of 85.9 K in good agreement with the previous value of 88.9 K using only Mackay icosahedral clusters fo…
Free cuprous formed inside a trench accelerates the trench via bottom. A drastic increase in current has been measured with N 2 bubbling by initially dissolving the trench bottom copper electrode. This increases with the narrower trench bottom width. With O 2 bubbling, however, this shows a very low current. These dif…
A modified Zr-based bulk metallic glass matrix composite Zr47.67Cu40Ti3.66Ni2.66Be6 has been produced by increasing the contents of elements of Zr and Cu with higher Poisson ratio and reducing the contents of Ti, Ni, and Be elements with lower Poisson ratio based on famous metallic glass former Vitreloy 1. A compressi…
We demonstrate synthesis of silicon nanowires of tens of nanometers via laser induced chemical vapor deposition. These nanowires with diameters as small as 60 nm are produced by the interference between incident laser radiation and surface scattered radiation within a diffraction limited spot, which causes spatially c…
Abstract In this paper we report on the effects of including of an InGaN prelayer in an InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well (MQW) structure. Two equivalent 10 period In0.16Ga0.84N MQW structures were studied, one with a 24 nm thick In0.05Ga0.95N prelayer, one without. X‐ray diffraction measurements showed no evidence of s…
Adding Au nanoparticles to YBa${}_{2}$Cu${}_{3}$O${}_{7\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\delta}}$ thin films leads to an increase of the superconducting transition temperature ${T}_{\mathrm{c}}$ and the critical current density ${j}_{\mathrm{c}}$. While the higher ${j}_{\mathrm{c}}$ can be understood in terms of a stronger p…
The influence of selected donor- and acceptor-type adsorbates on the electronic properties of InN(0001) surfaces is investigated implementing in-situ photoelectron spectroscopy. The changes in work function, surface band alignment, and chemical bond configurations are characterized during deposition of potassium and e…
Pantothenate kinase (PanK) is the rate-limiting enzyme in Coenzyme A biosynthesis, catalyzing the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of pantothenate. We solved the co-crystal structures of PanKs from Staphylococcus aureus (SaPanK) and Klebsiella pneumonia (KpPanK) with N-[2-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)ethyl] pantothenamide (N354…
Abstract The effects of the threading dislocation (TD) density on the optical properties of a series of comparable InxGa1–xN/ GaN multiple QW structures were studied. The TD density ranged from 2 × 107 cm–2, for a structure grown on a free‐standing GaN substrate, to 5 × 109 cm–2 grown on a sapphire substrate. Room tem…
The small kinase inhibitor SKF86002 lacks intrinsic fluorescence but becomes fluorescent upon binding to the ATP-binding sites of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38α). It was found that co-crystals of this compound with various kinases were distinguishable by their strong fluorescence. The co-crystals of SKF860…
Validation of general ideas about the origins of conformational differences in proteins is critical in order to arrive at meaningful functional insights. Here, principal component analysis (PCA) and distance difference matrices are used to validate some such ideas about the conformational differences between 291 myogl…
The chromium content of standard martensitic stainless steel X65Cr14 is raised to 17 mass% to enhance the solubility of nitrogen. Up to 4 mass% of nickel are added to suppress a partially ferritic solidification. This combination increases the nitrogen content soluble at 1 bar pressure from 0.14 to 0.24 mass%, which a…
Abstract We have studied time‐integrated and time‐resolved photoluminescence (PL) spectra and the transport properties of cubic GaN layers doped with different amounts of either magnesium (p‐type) or silicon (n‐type). In Mg doped material a broad blue peak was observed whose origin in cubic material has not been well…
A wider application of siRNA- and miRNA- based therapeutics is restricted by the currently available delivery systems. We have designed a new type of small molecule carrier (SMoC) system for siRNA modeled to interact with cell surface proteoglycans. This bifurcated SMoC has similar affinity for the model proteoglycan…
