A fluctuation relation for aging systems is introduced and verified by extensive numerical simulations. It is based on the hypothesis of partial equilibration over phase-space regions in a scenario of entropy-driven relaxation. The relation provides a simple alternative method, amenable of experimental implementation,…

A Young's-type double-slit experiment using electron beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) is demonstrated in a transmission electron microscope. Each of the slits is replaced by a grating mask with a fork dislocation, which generates electron beams with OAM as diffracted beams. Interference fringes produced b…

Here, the authors report on the occurrence, cause, and elimination of pyramidal defects in layers of GaSb grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaSb substrates. These defects are typically 3–8 nm high, 1–3 μm in diameter, and shaped like pyramids. Their occurrence in the growth of GaSb buffer layers can propagate into su…

Cu(II) ion has two sides. In one side, Cu(II) ion is an important cofactor in nearly 20 metalloenzymes and an essential micronutrient for all living systems.1 But, in other side, Cu(II) ion is one of significant metal pollutants2 and toxic to living cells if present in slightly high concentrations, causing neurodegene…

The goal of this work was to evaluate and compare the performance of different surface pre-treatments applied to aluminium single lap joints exposed to warm moisture. Four different processes were considered: 1) degreasing-roughening; 2) degreasing-roughening and phosphoric acid anodising; 3) degreasing-roughening and…

The adsorption and reaction of H2O molecule on neutral X-centered icosahedronal Al12X clusters (X = Al, Mg, Zn, Ga, Ni, Fe, B, C, Si, P) were investigated by PW91, PBE, and PWC methods. Reaction energies and reaction barriers were determined. The spin states and the doped atoms have important influences on the Al12X g…

The self-focusing characteristic of 355 nm, 3.3 ns pulses propagating through phosphate glass samples is found to significantly change during repeated exposure. The results indicate this change is related to the formation of color centers in the material as well as the generation of a transient defect population durin…

The selective control of pathogenic bacteria is an ongoing challenge. A strategy is proposed that combines targeted binding of the bacterium, using antibodies, with their photoactivated oxidative destruction. Photoactive colloidal TiO2 was first derivatized with E. coli antibodies (EA-TiO2). When mixtures of the organ…

Nucleus and spiral growth mechanisms of N-face GaN(0001) were studied in selective-area metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. An almost step-free N-face GaN surface is obtained by nucleus growth within a selective area without screw-type dislocations, while growth spirals are induced by the spiral growth mode when screw-t…
