Sliding behaviors of Σ9(221) grain boundary bicrystals have been investigated in pure metals (Al, Ag, Au, Cu, Pt and Co) and in segregated metals (Cu segregated by Al, Ag, Au, Pt and Co) by molecular dynamics simulations and first-principles calculations. The grain boundary energy, the atomic size and the electronegat…

We report a combined experimental and theoretical photoelectron spectroscopy study of ZnOH(-). We find that the electron binding energy spectrum of ZnOH(-) reveals a broad and featureless peak between 1.4 and 2.4 eV in energy. The vertical detachment energy (VDE) of ZnOH(-) is determined to be 1.78 eV, which is lower…

The 3-D TV active shutter glasses (SGs) technology requires the communication of the sync timing for time-sequential frame synchronization, in contrast to the syncless film-type patterned retarder approach. To advance our previous work based on the fractional-order timer, this paper proposes a fractional-order synchro…

The growth of (112)A-oriented AgInSe2 on GaAs (111)A and its surface reconstruction were studied by scanning tunneling microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and other techniques. Films were grown by a sputtering and evaporation method. Topographic STM images reveal that the film grew by atomic incorporation into surfac…

The δ phase of plutonium with the fcc structure exhibits an unusual negative thermal expansion (NTE) over its narrow temperature range of stability, 593-736 K. An accurate description of the anomalous high-temperature volume effect of plutonium goes beyond the current capability of electronic-structure calculations. W…

Abstract The cold crystallization behavior of poly (L‐lactide) (PLLA) blend films modified by small amount of acrylic rubber particles (ACR) have been investigated by in situ Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. During the isothermal cold crystallization, the crystallization rate of PLLA is greatly improved…

Two types of antioxidants (a phenolic antioxidant and a phosphorous antioxidant) were used to improve the stability of poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK). To evaluate the effect of the antioxidants on the properties of PEEK and the stabilization mechanism, some characterization methods were carried out, such as rheomete…

The analysis of a microRNA (miRNA), miR-222 isolated from the PC12 cell line, was performed by use of the ribonuclease (RNase) protection assay, cyanine 5 (Cy5)-labeled miR-222 riboprobe, and a Hitachi SV1210 microchip electrophoresis system, which can be used to evaluate the integrity of total RNA. The fluorescence i…

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) based single polymer force spectroscopy allows to detect the interaction (energy) between single polymers and interfaces in aqueous environment. We use this method to delineate the effect of ions, pH, co-solutes and temperature on the adhesion of biopolymers onto solid substrates.

We present the results of first principles molecular dynamics simulations of nitrogen vacancy complexes in monolayer hexagonal boron nitride. The threshold for local structure reconstruction is found to be sensitive to the presence of a substitutional carbon impurity. We show that activated nitrogen dynamics triggers…
