The search for voluminous stators that may accommodate large rotator units and speed rotational dynamics in the solid state led us to investigate a simple and efficient method for the synthesis of molecular rotors with tert-butyldiphenylsilyl-protected (TBDPS) triphenylmethyl stators. Additionally, solid state charact…

A new approach to determining the unit-cell vectors from single-crystal diffraction data based on clustering analysis is proposed. The method uses the density-based clustering algorithm DBSCAN. Unit-cell determination through the clustering procedure is particularly useful for limited tilt sequences and noisy data, an…

Abstract Thin, amorphous boron‐carbon films are deposited at low temperature (400–600 °C) by thermally activated CVD using the organoborane triethylboron (TEB) as a single precursor. Two different carrier gases are tested. At 600 °C, using argon as the carrier gas, the deposition rate is close to 1 µm h −1 . The film…

Single α–β colony micro-cantilevers were machined from a polycrystalline commercial Ti–6Al–4 V sample using a focussed ion beam. Each cantilever contained several alpha lamellae separated by thin fillets of beta. A nanoindenter was used to perform micro-bending tests. The a3 prismatic slip system was selectively activ…

Abstract The growth of polycrystalline diamond by chemical vapor deposition requires a substrate pre‐treatment in order to achieve thin, high‐quality, and pore‐free diamond layers. Seeding the substrate by immersing it into a nanodiamond (ND) dispersion is most commonly used today, since it yields a high‐density seed…

Anhydrous [2-percarboxyethyl] functionalized silica (2a) is an advantageous oxidant for performing the epoxidation of olefins 1. Epoxides 3 do not undergo the ring-opening reactions catalyzed by the acidic silica surface, except for particularly activated cases such as styrene oxide. The hydrophilic and acidic charact…

Snake states in a six-terminal graphene p-n junction are investigated under a perpendicular magnetic field. The current oscillation with varying magnetic field appears due to the presence of snake states at the p-n interface. At a fixed magnetic field, the periodic properties of currents with respect to the geometric…

Abstract We formulate a general method to analyze hybridization modes in metamaterials by employing electrical circuit models. By rewriting circuit equations for coupled inductor–capacitor circuit networks in the bra‐ket notation, we show that there exists a good analogy between circuit models and quantum tight‐bindin…
