Using molecular simulations, we investigate the structural and diffusive dynamics properties of a model fluid in highly absorptive cylindrical pores. At subcritical temperatures, self-diffusivity displays three distinct regimes as a function of average pore density ρ: (1) a decrease in self-diffusivity with increasing…

This paper reports the use of thin titania or alumina coatings on tin oxide nanowire arrays for high cyclability electrodes for lithium-ion batteries. We demonstrate that such coatings can significantly reduce irreversible capacity loss associated with the formation of a solid electrolyte interface and improve the cap…

BACKGROUND: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) represents a major global health problem with increasing prevalence and morbidity. CVI is due to an incompetence of the venous valves, which causes venous reflux and distal venous hypertension. Several studies have focused on the replacement of diseased venous valves usin…

Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR1/5) play a role in synaptic plasticity and they demonstrate direct interactions with the neuronal Homer1c protein. We have previously shown that Homer1c can restore the plasticity deficits in Homer1 knockout mice (H1-KO). Here, we investigated the role of Homer1c in mGlu…

In this study, post-buckling behavior of functionally graded beams under the influence of temperature loading is investigated by using total Lagrangian finite element model of three-dimensional continuum approximations. Material properties of the beam are both temperature-dependent and position-dependent. In this stud…

In the present study, a novel hydrogel-grafted fabrics embedding of berberine nanosuspension was developed for the treatment of infected wound. Hydrogel-grafted fabric was prepared by graft copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide and alginate using ceric ammonium nitrate as initiator. Berberine nanosuspension was pr…

Majorana zero modes in networks of one-dimensional topological superconductors obey non-Abelian braiding statistics. Braiding manipulations can be realized by controlling Coulomb couplings in hybrid Majorana-transmon devices. However, strong disorder may induce accidental Majorana modes, which are expected to have det…

In this article we investigate the structural and photocatalytic properties of W-doped titanium dioxide coatings. TiO2-W thin films were deposited onto glass slides by reactive magnetron co-sputtering. The properties of the films were analyzed using such techniques as XRD, Raman spectroscopy, EDX, TEM, and surface pro…

Chiral symmetry breaking in NaClO 3 crystallization from an aqueous solution with perturbations has been of great interest. To understand the mechanism, several models focusing on the early stage of the crystallization have been proposed. However, they are ambiguous because the early stage has been barely explored dir…

Multibeam interference lithography (MBIL) represents a versatile, wafer-scale, rapid, and cost-effective fabrication technique for periodic-based microstructures. However, integrating arbitrary and nonperiodic functional elements within an MBIL-defined lattice typically requires an additional time-consuming step. To a…

We present a novel technique for vertical coupling of light guided by nanoscale plasmonic slot waveguides (PSWs). A triangularly-shaped plasmonic slot waveguide rotator is exploited to attain such coupling with a good efficiency over a wide bandwidth. Using this approach, light propagating in a horizontal direction is…
