Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV) was isolated in acidic hot springs where it infects the archeon Sulfolobus solfataricus. We determined the STIV structure using near-atomic resolution electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography allowing tracing of structural polypeptide chains and visualization of transm…
Previously we proposed the concept of dual function pH and oxygen paramagnetic probes based on the incorporation of ionizable groups into the structure of persistent triarylmethyl radicals, TAMs (J. Am. Chem. Soc.2007, 129, 7240-7241). In this paper, we synthesized an asymmetric monophosphonated TAM probe with the sim…
Scanning tunneling microscopy and local conductance mapping show spin-state coexistence in bilayer films of Fe[(H2Bpz2)2bpy] on Au(111) that is independent of temperature between 131 and 300 K. This modification of bulk behavior is attributed in part to the unique packing constraints of the bilayer film that promote d…
For deriving maximal advantage from information on biomacromolecular flexibility and rigidity, results from rigidity analyses must be linked to biologically relevant characteristics of a structure. Here, we describe the Python-based software package Constraint Network Analysis (CNA) developed for this task. CNA functi…
In this communication, we present what may be the simplest method yet devised for removing surface layers from brittle substrates. The process is called controlled spalling technology (CST) and works by depositing a tensile stressor layer on the surface of a substrate, introducing a crack near the edge of the substrat…
In this Letter, we report the preliminary demonstration of a new paradigm for photovoltaic power generation that utilizes a broadband diffractive-optical element (BDOE) to efficiently separate sunlight into laterally spaced spectral bands. These bands are then absorbed by single-junction photovoltaic cells, whose band…
Structural dynamics of Ca(BDC)(DMF)(H 2 O) with rhombic-shaped channels and 4 4 net topology upon heating and hydration were elucidated by using complementary methods of diffraction (XRD) and spectroscopy (FT-IR, MAS NMR, EXAFS, XANES). During heating the Ca(BDC)(DMF)(H 2 O) framework underwent structural changes in t…
Abstract Sustained aceclofenac release cationized starch–alginate beads were developed through ionotropic gelation. The effects of sodium alginate and cationized starch amounts as independent process variables on drug encapsulation, and drug release were optimized using central composite design. The optimized beads sh…
Four porous metalloporphyrinic framework materials, [(CH3)2NH2][Zn2(HCOO)2(Mn(III)-TCPP)]·5DMF·2H2O (1; H6TCPP = tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin), [(CH3)2NH2][Cd2(HCOO)2(Mn(III)-TCPP)]·5DMF·3H2O (2), [Zn2(HCOO)(Fe(III)(H2O)-TCPP)]·3DMF·H2O (3), and [Cd3(H2O)6(μ2-O)(Fe(III)-HTCPP)2]·5DMF (4) were synthesized by heat…
High-performance and cost-effective rechargeable batteries are key to the success of electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems. Extensive research has focused on the development of (i) new high-energy electrodes that can store more lithium or (ii) high-power nano-structured electrodes hybridized with ca…
To immobilize open Cu 2+ sites and tune suitable pore spaces, we have realized a doubly interpenetrated metal–organic framework (MOF) [Cu 2 L(H 2 O) 2 ]·(DMF) 6 ·H 2 O ( ZJU-30, ZJU = Zhejiang University; H 4 L = biphenyl-3,3′,5,5′-tetra-(phenyl-4-carboxylic) acid; DMF = N, N -dimethylformamide) for the highly selecti…
For the development of ab initio derived force fields, atomic charges must be computed from electronic structure computations, such that (i) they accurately describe the molecular electrostatic potential (ESP) and (ii) they are transferable to the force-field application of interest. The Iterative Hirshfeld (Hirshfeld…
Abstract Catalysis of the challenging cycloaddition of carbon dioxide to internal epoxides has been studied using iron(III) amine triphenolate complexes and particular focus has been given to the stereochemical regulation of this process. When pure cis ‐ or trans ‐2,3‐epoxybutane is used as substrate, the stereochemis…
A stretchable, flexible antenna fabricated with silver nanowires (AgNW) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is presented. Highly conductive AgNWs coupled with mechanically flexibility and durable PDMS are shown to produce promising results for RF sensing. The RF antenna is designed as a 1.5-GHz microstrip patch antenna us…
We report the first experimental observation of a liquid-liquid phase transition in the monatomic liquid metal cerium, by means of in situ high-pressure high-temperature x-ray diffraction experiments. At 13 GPa, upon increasing temperature from 1550 to 1900 K high-density liquid transforms to a low-density liquid, wit…
A versatile and general synthetic route for the synthesis of conjugated main group element-based polymers, previously inaccessible by conventional means, is reported. These polymers contain five-membered chalcogenophene rings based on S, Se, and Te, and we demonstrate that optoelectronic properties can be readily tune…
Nanotechnology has been touted as the next ‘industrial revolution’ of our modern age. In order for successful research, development, and social discourses to take place in this field, education research is needed to inform the development of standards, course development, and workforce preparation. In addition, there…
Chitosan (Cs) and hydroxyapatite (Ha) were analysed by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Phosphorylated Cs microparticles and hybrid Cs/Ha microparticles were prepared and analysed by XPS before and after immersion in a solution 1.5 times more concentrated than a simulated body fluid (SBF). The accuracy of spect…
Oxyanion holes are commonly found in many enzyme structures. They are crucial for the stabilization of high-energy oxyanion intermediates or transition states through hydrogen bonding. Typical functionalities found in enzyme oxyanion holes or chemically designed oxyanion-hole mimics are N-H and O-H groups. Through DFT…
A straightforward, economically viable, and green approach for the synthesis of well-stabilized Au/Ag bimetallic nanoparticles is described; this method uses nontoxic and renewable degraded pueraria starch (DPS) as a matrix and mild reaction conditions. The DPS acted as both a reducing agent and a capping agent for th…
