We investigate the stability, self-organized morphology, and kinetics of dewetting in a thin polymer bilayer (∼100 nm) of P3HT/polystyrene (PS) supported on Si wafers. The thin film of the conducting polymer, P3HT or regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene), is driven to microstructure formation by dewetting of the unstabl…

The electronic dephasing of benzene on the second excited state has been observed using a femtosecond time-resolved photoelectron imaging technique coupled with time-resolved mass spectroscopy. Upon absorption of two 400-nm photons, benzene is excited to the ${S}_{2}$ state, and the time evolution of the parent ion ca…

We report the dependence of the intrinsic spin-wave spectra on the three-dimensional shape in single FePt nanomagnetic elements. In contrast to the well-known center and edge modes in flat, circular nanodisks, curved nanomagnets with identical nominal thickness and footprint exhibit a rich multimode spectrum with qual…

HypF is involved in the biosynthesis of the CN ligand of the NiFe(CN)(2)CO centre of [NiFe]-hydrogenases. Here, the full-length structure of HypF from Thermococcus kodakarenesis is reported at 4.5 Å resolution. The N-terminal acylphosphatase-like (ACP) domain interacts with the zinc-finger domain with some flexibility…

Abstract Two bead‐spring models of flexible chains for generic coarse graining of entangled polymer melts, the excluded volume Kremer–Grest (KG) model and the modified segmental repulsive potential (mSRP) combined with a weakly repulsive potential, are compared. For chains containing an equivalent number of entangleme…

Abstract A screen-printed poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) : poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT : PSS) layer was used as the anode for a flexible white organic light-emitting device (FWOLED). After 700 bending cycles, the sheet resistance of the anode was increased to 1.8 times the initial value (296 Ω/□). The average tran…

Two-dimensional insulators with time-reversal symmetry can have two topologically different phases, the quantum spin Hall and the normal phase. The former is revealed by the existence of conducting edge states that are topologically protected. Here we show that the reaction to impurity, in bulk, is radically different…
