Using the five-site transferable intermolecular potential (TIP5P) we perform molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the relationship between the excess entropy and anomalies of water. We find that the two-body excess entropy is an ideal quantity to predict the regions of structural, dynamic, and thermodynamic a…

Silver metal nanoparticles (Nps) are extensively used in different areas of research and technology due to their interesting optical, thermal and electric properties, especially for bare core and core-shell nanostructures with sizes smaller than 10 nm. Since these properties are core-shell size-dependent, size measure…

Radial elastic corrugation of multiwalled carbon nanotubes under hydrostatic pressure is demonstrated by using the continuum elastic theory. Various corrugation patterns are observed under a pressure of several GPa, wherein the stable cross-sectional shape depends on the innermost tube diameter D and the total number…

Moisture transmission properties are most important for fabric comfort. We have studied the moisture transmission properties of the plain-woven fabric produced with polyester–viscose-(PV) blended yarns. PV-blended yarns of varying blend proportion, yarn count and twist levels have been used for fabric manufacture. A t…

We report an effective method to fabricate two-dimensional (2D) periodic oxide nanopatterns using S-layer proteins as a template. Specifically, S-layer proteins with a unit cell dimension of 20 nm were reassembled on silicon substrate to form 2D arrays with ordered pores of nearly identical sizes (9 nm). Octadecyltric…

Novel hetero-pi-conjugated compounds (dibenzochalcogenaborins) with the same molecular framework, bearing a boron atom as an acceptor and chalcogen atoms as a donor, were synthesized, and systematic comparisons among these molecules were performed. X-ray crystallographic analysis of these molecules showed similar stru…

A realistic dynamics simulation study is reported for the photoisomerization of trans-azobenzene. The isomerization follows both n pi* (the HOMO --> LUMO) and pi pi* (the HOMO-1 --> LUMO) excitations. The simulation finds that for the pi pi* excitation, the relaxation of the S(pi pi*) state is immediately followed by…
