Numerous proteins require cofactors to be active. Computer simulations suggest that cooperative interaction networks achieve optimal cofactor binding. There is a need for the experimental identification of the residues crucial for stabilizing these networks and thus for cofactor binding. Here we investigate the electr…

In the present study, we examined photodarkening loss reduction in Yb3+ doped aluminosilicate fibers by utilizing 633 nm light irradiation. It is demonstrated that the final photobleaching value is intensity dependent, but the percentage of photodarkening reduction does not depend on dopant concentrations for settled…

15-kV-class 4H-SiC PiN diodes with various junction termination structures have been experimentally investigated. Employment of the space-modulated junction termination extension (SM-JTE) and the two-zone JTE have realized a breakdown voltage over 15 kV, corresponding to 93% of the parallel-plane breakdown voltage. Th…

This paper presents a time-domain method for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis using ordinary least squares (OLS). In this approach, an electrochemical device, e.g., fuel cell or battery, is perturbed galvanostatically by a small-signal sinusoid that is logarithmically swept in frequency. Using fou…

Conditional release: pH-Sensitive polymersomes are stabilized by cross-linking through short UV irradiation for reversible swelling/shrinking upon switching the pH. The membrane of these polymersomes behaves as a gate, which traffics the release of small bioactive molecules, such as doxorubicin from the lumen of polym…

Abstract It is shown that electrospun poly(vynilidene fluoride) nanofibers are fully poled right after preparation and show β‐phase contents of ∼70%, therefore being able to be implemented into electroactive devices without further processing steps. Further, the local piezoelectric properties of individual electrospun…

The redox properties and electronic structures of polycationic species were examined using a triphenylamine double-decker species. The double-decker has a strong electron-donating ability, and the spin in the radical cation is delocalized over the whole caged skeleton, despite no direct transannular π–π interaction be…

The magnetic and electronic properties of Ba${}_{4}$Ru${}_{3}$O${}_{10}$ were investigated by the ab initio and model calculations. It is shown that nonmagnetic ground state of the one-third Ru${}^{4+}$ ions is not due to the correlation effects. It is rather caused by the charge disproportionation between crystallogr…
