The relationship between the strain and defect structure in gadolinia-doped ceria has been studied with atomistic simulations. It was found that the next nearest neighbor type associations are preferred under zero or tensile applied strains, but the nearest neighbor type defect associations became favorable under comp…

Abstract Calix[4]phyrins are an important class of hybrid macrocyclic systems at the interface between porphyrins and calixpyrroles (porphyrinogens). A new stepwise synthesis of oxidation‐resistant meso‐hydrogenated calix[4]phyrins is reported, which allows variable substitution in the residues of their sp2‐meso‐cente…

The novel complex hydride YLiFeH6 with the Fe–H complex anion ([FeH6]4−) was synthesized by hydrogenation of YFe2 together with additional Li. Li adjusts the original imbalanced charge between Y3+ and [FeH6]4− by donating an electron to convert into Li+ during the hydrogenation, resulting in the formation of the well…

β-Tetraethylsulfanyl-substituted [28]hexaphyrin 5 was prepared and converted to the corresponding β-tetraethylsulfonyl [28]hexaphyrin 6 and tetraethylsulfanyl [26]hexaphyrin 7. Both 5 and 6 are antiaromatic molecules with figure-of-eight structures while the major conformer of 7 is an aromatic species with a rectangul…

In this paper, we clarify the physical mechanism for the phenomenon of negative output differential resistance (NDR) in short-channel graphene FETs through nonequilibrium Green's function simulations and a simpler semianalytical ballistic model that captures the essential physics. This NDR phenomenon is due to a trans…
