Although early transition metals are too reactive to serve as effective combustion catalysts, it has been proposed that combining them with nonmetallic elements may moderate the reactivity and allow them to replace more expensive catalysts. To test this hypothesis, we use ZrO + as our replacement and compare the react…

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a group of biopolymers resembling plastic due to their physical characteristics. PHAs are known to have great structural variety and biodegradability which add to their importance in replacing synthetic plastics and making them future green materials. Such biopolymers gained worldwide…

The conversion of dextran with in situ synthesized iminium chlorides of long chain carboxylic acids was used to obtain pure and defined melting dextran esters in an efficient one-pot synthesis. The melting point of these esters can be tailored by the degree of substitutions (DS), the molecular weight of the starting p…

We examine the jamming transition in a two-dimensional granular polymer system using compressional simulations. The jamming density Φ(c) decreases with increasing length of the granular chain due to the formation of loop structures, in excellent agreement with recent experiments. The jamming density can be further red…

This study addresses the question of whether chemically deposited PbS thin films grown on GaAs(111) are affected by the oppositely terminated substrate surfaces, gallium terminated GaAs(111)A and arsenic terminated GaAs(111)B. The differences in PbS film deposition pathway in both cases of substrate surface terminatio…

This paper reports on the electric field control of magnetism without magnetic bias field in a Ni/Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3/Ni composite prepared by electrochemical deposition. The converse magnetoelectric effect, which was measured by an induction method, shows a peak value of 0.45 G/V at the resonance frequency of 102…

We calculate the electronic structure and exchange interactions in a copper(II)phthalocyanine [Cu(II)Pc] crystal as a one-dimensional molecular chain using hybrid exchange density functional theory (DFT). In addition, the intermolecular exchange interactions are also calculated in a molecular dimer using Green's funct…

Abstract We have investigated the predictive capability of a widely used group of density functional theory (DFT) methods on the interaction (hyper)polarizability of the two water molecules in the water dimer. We find that compared with conventional ab initio methods, DFT gives a different picture of the dipole moment…

Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) has generally been carried out at energies below \ensuremath{\sim}150 eV, but there is growing interest in going to higher energies so as to achieve greater bulk sensitivity. To this end, we have measured ARPES spectra from a tungsten (110) crystal in a plane containin…
