The Aurivillius compound ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{4}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{3}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$ exhibits a single phase transition from a tetragonal high-temperature phase to a ferroelectric state. By means of first-principles calculations guided by a complete symmetry analysis of the experimental distortion, we confirm $B1a1$ as the…
A route for producing polyaniline nanotubes using the inner eggshell membrane as a template is demonstrated. Because the template substitutes the inner eggshell membrane with the outer eggshell membrane in the same reaction process, the resulting morphology of polyaniline correspondingly changes. A series of experimen…
A polyHIPE is a cross-linked, porous polymer synthesized through polymerization in the external phase of a high internal phase emulsion (HIPE). Crystalline polyHIPE polymers were synthesized through copolymerization of stearyl acrylate and divinylbenzene (DVB). Polymerizations initiated at the water/organic interface…
PACS: 71.35.Cc, 71.15.Mb, 78.20.-e.-- A Comment on the Letter by B. Arnaud et al., [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 026402 (2006).
We have investigated the effects of atomic disorder on the electronic structure and some physical properties of ${\text{Co}}_{2}\text{CrAl}$ Heusler alloy (HA) films. Flash evaporation onto glass substrates at different temperatures (from 150 to 750 K) and postannealing at various temperatures were employed to manipul…
Dispersion and exfoliation of carbon nanotubes (CNT) by water soluble dispersants such as surfactant, polymer or protein is a key step toward the application of carbon nanotubes in composite materials, biochemical and biomedical applications. Upon dispersion, the solution phase separates into dispersed nanotubes in th…
We study the supercurrent in a superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor graphene junction. In contrast to its metallic counterpart, the oscillating critical current in our setup decays only weakly upon increasing the exchange field and junction width. We find an unusually large residual value of the supercurrent at t…
We report on the synthesis and characterization of a new type of diblock copolymer that is composed of two side-chain liquid crystalline polymers (SCLCP1- block -SCLCP2). The diblock copolymer of poly{6-[4-(4-methoxyphenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate}- block -poly{6-[4-(4-cyanophenyl)phenoxy]hexyl methacrylate} (PAz…
Rapid alignment of proteins in terms of domains (RAPIDO) is a web server for the 3D alignment of crystal structures of different protein molecules in the presence of conformational change. The structural alignment algorithm identifies groups of equivalent atoms whose interatomic distances are constant (within a define…
Abstract The addition of small percentages of Na + ‐montmorillonite (NaMMT) nanoclay appears to improve considerably the performance of thermosetting urea‐formaldehyde (UF) resins used as adhesives for plywood and for wood particleboard. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) studies indicated that NaMMT loses the periodic atomic st…
The generation of hydroxyl (OH) radicals was investigated during ultrasonic irradiation and in the presence of TiO(2). The effect of TiO(2) on an ultrasonic system's oxidation power was evaluated by examining the oxidation of salicylic acid. The generation of the salicylic acid derivatives, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (…
New high-flux synchrotron radiation circular dichroism (SRCD) beamlines are providing important information for structural biology, but can potentially cause denaturation of the protein samples under investigation. This effect has been studied at the new CD1 dedicated SRCD beamline at ISA in Denmark, where radiation-i…
Ab initio density-functional theory study suggests that pillared Li-dispersed boron carbide nanotubes are capable of storing hydrogen with a mass density higher than 6.0 wt% and a volumetric density higher than 45 g/L. The boron substitution in carbon nanotube greatly enhances the binding energy of Li atom to the nano…
We report a nanoparticle radius ratio dependent study of the formation of binary nanoparticle superlattices (BNSLs) of CdTe and CdSe quantum dots. While keeping all other parameters identical in the system, the effective nanoparticle radius ratio, gamma(eff), was tuned to allow the formation of five different BNSL str…
We present a nanosized and addressable sensor platform based on membrane coated plasmonic particles and show unequivocally the covering with lipid bilayers as well as the subsequent detection of streptavidin binding to biotinylated lipids. The binding is detected on membrane covered gold nanorods by monitoring the spe…
We study sound transmission in perforated plates as a function of incident angle and conclude that it holds distinctive properties that make it unique and essentially different from optical transmission through perforated metallic plates. More precisely, we conclude the following: (a) similar to its optical counterpar…
Using first-principles electronic structure calculations based on the Nth order muffin tin orbital (NMTO)-downfolding technique, we derived the low-energy spin model for CuTe2O5. Our study reveals that this compound is a 2D coupled spin-dimer system with the strongest Cu-Cu interaction mediated by two O-Te-O bridges.…
We have investigated the effects of tuning the localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) of silver nanoparticles on the fluorescence intensity, lifetime, and Raman signal from nearby fluorophores. The presence of a metallic structure can alter the optical properties of a molecule by increasing the excitation field,…
Recent developments in the theory of amorphous plasticity point to the central role played by the concept of an effective disorder temperature $T_{eff}$. An athermal dynamics for $T_{eff}$ are proposed in the framework of a deformation theory and discussed in light of the recent steady state simulations by Haxton and…
Polarized neutron reflectivity measurements of a ferromagnetic ${[{({\text{LaMnO}}_{3})}_{11.8}/{({\text{SrMnO}}_{3})}_{4.4}]}_{6}$ superlattice reveal a modulated magnetic structure with an enhanced magnetization at the interfaces where ${\text{LaMnO}}_{3}$ was deposited on ${\text{SrMnO}}_{3}$ (LMO/SMO). However, th…
