Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans plays an important role in bioleaching in reproducing the mineral oxidant of ferric iron (Fe(3+) ) by oxidization of ferrous iron (Fe(2+) ). The high-molecular-weight c-type cytochrome Cyc2 that is located in the external membrane is postulated as the first electron carrier in the Fe(2+)…

The application of electric bias across tip-surface junctions in scanning probe microscopy can readily induce surface and bulk electrochemical processes that can be further detected though changes in surface topography, Faradaic or conductive currents, or electromechanical strain responses. However, the basic factors…

We report on the design and the experimental evidence of a flat graded index photonic crystal lens. The gradient has been designed so that the flat slab focuses a plane wave and so that it converts the wave issued from a point source into a plane wave. This graded-index photonic crystal lens operates as a convex lens.…

A light Ta3N5: Mesoporous Ta3N5 microspheres were synthesized by thermally nitriding a high-surface-area, microporous, amorphous Ta2O5 precursor at 750 °C, which is lower than the 900 °C needed for the complete nitridation of micrometer-sized Ta2O5 powder. The mesoporous Ta3N5 microspheres show significantly enhanced…

Atomic force microscopy is used to conduct the first detailed nanoscopic study on the crystal growth of a complex mixed metal/metal–organic framework based on the MOF-5 framework topology. Shells of isomorphously substituted Co/Zn-MOF-5 and MOF-5 were epitaxially grown on MOF-5 core crystals at room temperature and lo…

This study presents a method for analysing the eddy current distribution in splints and oil tank and investigates the losses because of eddy currents in a shell‐type power transformer. An optimisation algorithm combining the Taguchi's and the Rosenbrock's method to decrease the eddy current losses is proposed based on…

Sulfate-reducing bacteria are characterized by a high number of hydrogenases, which have been proposed to contribute to the overall energy metabolism of the cell, but exactly in what role is not clear. Desulfovibrio spp. can produce or consume H2 when growing on organic or inorganic substrates in the presence or absen…

We analyze the interaction at the surface of a three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator among 2D electron states belonging to the Dirac cone close to the point of the Brillouin zone and the Rayleigh surface phonon mode. The model deals with an elastic continuum in the long-wavelength limit, in Random Phase Approxi…

A significant episteric ("around a solid") distortion of the hydrogen-bond structure of water is promoted by solutes with nanoscale surface detail and physico-chemical complexity, such as soluble natural proteins. These structural distortions defy analysis because the discrete nature of the solvent at the interface is…
