Metalation of 2,4,6-tri(methyl)phenol ((Me)ArOH) and 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-methylphenol ((Bu)ArOH) with NaN(SiMe(3))(2) in toluene and in the presence of stoichiometric amounts of the polydentate amines N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) and N,N,N',N'',N''-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) affords three…
Graphene oxides (GOs), beyond their widely reported use as precursors for single-layer graphene sheets, are in fact excellent materials themselves (polymers in two-dimension, polyelectrolyte-like, aqueous solubility and biocompatibility, etc.). In this reported work we used aqueous GOs to effectively disperse few-laye…
The LiBH 4 −Mg(BH 4 ) 2 system has been investigated as a possible hydrogen storage material. Several composites were synthesized by ball milling, namely, x LiBH 4 −(1− x )Mg(BH 4 ) 2 with x = 0, 0.10, 0.25, 0.33, 0.40, 0.50, 0.60, 0.66, 0.75, 0.80, 0.90, 1. The physical mixture was investigated by using X- ray powder…
First-principles calculations are performed to study energetics and kinetics of hydrogen in ZnO, in particular, the H(-) anion and the H(2) molecule on the interstitial site and in the oxygen vacancy. We show that the H(2) molecule kinetically trapped in the oxygen vacancy, rather than interstitial H(2), can explain a…
We present a detailed study of the spin-torque diode effect in CoFeB/MgO/CoFe/NiFe magnetic tunnel junctions. From the evolution of the resonance frequency with magnetic field at different angles, we clearly identify the free-layer mode and find an excellent agreement with simulations by taking into account several te…
We have performed an ab initio study of the thermodynamical properties of rare-earth-magnesium intermetallic compounds MgRE (RE=Y, Dy, Pr, Tb) with CsCl-type B2-type structures. The calculations have been carried out the density functional theory and density functional perturbation theory in combination with the quasi…
We report the successful extraction of spin polarized current from the organic-based room temperature ferrimagnetic semiconductor V[TCNE]x (x~2, TCNE: tetracyanoethylene; TC ~ 400 K, EG ~ 0.5 eV, s ~ 10-2 S/cm) and its subsequent injection into a GaAs/AlGaAs light-emitting diode (LED). The spin current tracks the magn…
The spin-nematic scenario proposed for the structural instability of iron-based superconductors is studied theoretically within a Ginzburg-Landau approach in epitaxial thin films. The transition temperature and the domains that appear due the interface with the substrate are computed analytically by following a variat…
Spin relaxation dynamics in rings with Rashba spin-orbit coupling is investigated using spin kinetic equation. We find that the spin relaxation in rings occurs toward a persistent spin configuration whose final shape depends on the initial spin polarization profile. As an example, it is shown that a homogeneous parall…
A model of electrons hopping from atom to atom in graphene's honeycomb lattice gives low-energy electronic excitations that obey a relation formally identical to a 2+1 dimensional Dirac equation. Graphene's spin equivalent, "pseudospin," arises from the degeneracy introduced by the honeycomb lattice's two inequivalent…
On the leave: Easily generated triflate boron subphthalocyanines are highly activated universal substrates for efficient axial substitution reactions with oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, and carbon nucleophiles (see picture).
We demonstrate for the first time the instability of the lithium garnet Li 7 La 3 Sn 2 O 12 toward moisture. In ambient air a spontaneous Li + /H + exchange occurs leading to Li 7− x H x La 3 Sn 2 O 12 . The lithium released is combined with the atmospheric CO 2 under the Li 2 CO 3 form making Li 7 La 3 Sn 2 O 12 a CO…
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNTs) with a mean diameter of 1.6 nm were synthesized on a large scale by using oxygen-assisted floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition. The oxygen introduced can selectively etch metallic SWCNTs in situ, while the sulfur growth promoter functions in promoting the…
Understanding the microscopic processes affecting the bulk thermal conductivity is crucial to develop more efficient thermoelectric materials. PbTe is currently one of the leading thermoelectric materials, largely thanks to its low thermal conductivity. However, the origin of this low thermal conductivity in a simple…
Using atomistic computer simulations, we study how ion irradiation can be used to alter the morphology of a graphene monolayer, by introducing defects of specific type, and to cut graphene sheets. Based on the results of our analytical potential molecular dynamics simulations, a kinetic Monte Carlo code is developed f…
Water-borne, underwater adhesives were created by complex coacervation of synthetic copolyelectrolytes that mimic the proteins of the natural underwater adhesive of the sandcastle worm. To increase bond strengths, we created a second polymer network within cross-linked coacervate network by entrapping polyethylene gly…
The intracellular uptake of 30 nm diameter gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) was studied at the nanoscale in pristine eukaryotic cells. Live COS-7 cells were maintained in a microfluidic chamber and imaged using scanning transmission electron microscopy. A quantitative image analysis showed that Au-NPs bound to the membrane…
Effects of strain on the surface cation chemistry and the electronic structure are important to understand and control for attaining fast oxygen reduction kinetics on transition-metal oxides. Here we demonstrate and mechanistically interpret the strain coupling to Sr segregation, oxygen vacancy formation, and electron…
We report on muon-spin rotation and relaxation ($\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{SR}$), electrical resistivity, magnetization and differential scanning calorimetry measurements performed on a high-quality single crystal of ${\mathrm{Cs}}_{0.8}({\mathrm{FeSe}}_{0.98}{)}_{2}$. Whereas our transport and magnetization data confir…
The electrical properties (capacitance, resistance, and conductivity) of ion gel films were examined as a function of film geometry and temperature by using electrical impedance spectroscopy. Ion gel films, which consist of a triblock copolymer, poly (styrene-b-methyl methacrylate-b-styrene) [SMS], and an ionic liquid…
