A second-generation dynamic charge transfer, many-body potential function is proposed for crystalline and amorphous silica, and for silicon. The potential is based on the first-generation charge-optimized many-body (COMB) potential for these materials. The materials fidelity of the proposed formalism is demonstrated f…
When a linear chain of plasmonic nanoparticles is subject to longitudinal magnetic field, it exhibits optical Faraday rotation. If the magnetized nanoparticles are plasmonic ellipsoids arranged as a spiral chain, the interplay between the Faraday rotation and the geometrical spiral rotation (structural chirality) can…
The amount of nutrients that can be released from food products (i.e., nutrient in vitro bioaccessibility) is often studied as it is a starting point for investigating nutrient bioavailability, an indicator for the nutritional value of food products. However, the importance of mastication as a particle size reduction…
Multiple surface plasmon resonances are experimentally observed for p-polarized as well as s-polarized incident light at the planar interface of a metal and a chiral sculptured thin film. These experimental results confirm that four surface plasmon resonances can be supported at the interface of metal-chiral sculpture…
Three inorganic-organic compounds based on [Mo(x)O(y)](n-) chains, [Ag(4)(3-pttz)(2)Mo(3)O(10)] (1) (3-pttz = 5-(3-pyridyl) tetrazolate), [Ag(4)(2-pttz)(2)Mo(4)O(13)] (2) (2-pttz = 5-(2-pyridyl) tetrazolate), and [Ag(4)(pzttz)(2)Mo(4)O(13)] (3) (pzttz = 5-(pyrazinyl) tetrazolate), have been self-assembled, accompanied…
This paper presents a novel control strategy for the case of 3-phase 3-wire Unified Power-Quality Conditioner (UPQC) based on the concepts of instantaneous active and reactive Power theory. The UPQCs is one of the major custom power solutions capable of mitigating the effect of supply voltage sags / swells, distortion…
BACKGROUND: Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is an alternative treatment modality for patients with glioma. The aim of this study was to determine whether induction of apoptosis contributes to the main therapeutic efficacy of BNCT and to compare the relative biological effect (RBE) of BNCT, γ-ray and reactor neutr…
We present an experimental study of NO x (NO and NO 2 ) formation from air and N 2 /O 2 /NO x mixtures using a nonthermal microwave plasma device. The tests were performed considering the energy consumed to generate plasma gas and the flow rate of air. The results demonstrated that NO x production was proportional to…
Three novel homochiral helical metal−organic frameworks (MOFs), namely [Zn(LTP) 2 ] n ( 1 ), [Cd(LTP) 2 ] n ( 2 ), and [Ni(LTP) 2 ] n ( 3 ) (LTP = l -thioproline), have been synthesized and characterized. X-ray crystallographic analysis shows that all the three complexes consist of homochiral left-handed or right-hand…
The most reliable information about crystal structures and their response to changes in pressure and temperature is obtained from single-crystal diffraction experiments. We have developed a methodology to perform single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments in laser-heated diamond anvil cells and demonstrate that stru…
The interaction between cyclophosphamide monohydrate with human serum albumin (HSA) and human serum transferrin (hTf) was studied with UV absorption, fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies as well as molecular modeling. Based on the fluorescence quenching results, it was determined that HSA and hTf ha…
Record 9nm half-pitch functional Transition-Metal-Oxide based Resistive Random Access Memory (TMORRAM) cell and the lowest reported 1µA programming current (Iprog, both Set and Reset) have been achieved with thermally oxidized sub-stoichiometric WOxand Nano Injection Lithography (NIL) technique [1]. The unexpectedly l…
Nanocrystalline anatase was synthesized from a triethylene glycol solution of titanium isopropoxide by refluxing at for . The thermal stability and effect of particle size on the corresponding electrochemical performances were investigated by annealing the prepared sample at various temperatures; namely, 300, 400, 500…
Chitin is a biodegradable polymer widely spread in nature. It is mainly obtained form crustacean shells. Chitin and its derivatives have shown to be effective in controlling plagues and plants diseases. Their mechanism of action is strongly linked to their chemical structures. These mechanisms can result from the dire…
Beside inorganic LEDs and fluorescent lamps, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are evolving into a serious alternative to incandescent lamps. Up to now, it was assumed that all-phosphorescent OLEDs are required for reaching sufficiently high efficiencies. However, the stability of phosphorescent blue emitters is a…
Technology advances in both computations and wireless communications have made it economically feasible for manufacturers to collect data from all the cars in order to monitor their operations and detect any potential problems. However to make this a reality requires a new architecture that can effectively handle vehi…
A discussion of Robert Brown’s original observations of particles ejected by pollen of the plant Clarkia pulchella undergoing what is now called Brownian motion is given. We consider the nature of those particles and how he misinterpreted the Airy disk of the smallest particles to be universal organic building blocks.…
The purpose of this note is to clarify the group field theory vertex and propagators corresponding to the EPRL/FK spin foam models and to detail the subtraction of leading divergences of the model.
Vanadium dioxide exhibits a well-known insulator-to-metal transition during which several of its physical properties change significantly. A hysteresis loop develops for each of them as the material is heated and then cooled through the transition. In this work VO2/SiO2 samples were maintained—by heat sinking—at a sel…
Uranyl-peroxide nanoclusters display different topologies based on square, pentagonal and hexagonal building blocks. Computed complexation energies of different cations (Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), and Cs(+)) with [UO(2)(O(2))(H(2)O)](n) (n = 4, 5, and 6) macrocycles suggest a strong cation templating effect. The inher…
