Monte Carlo simulations are used to model the self-organizing behavior of the biomineralizing peptide KSL (KKVVFKVKFK) in the presence of phosphate. Originally identified as an antimicrobial peptide, KSL also directs the formation of biosilica through a hypothetical supramolecular template that requires phosphate for…

In recent years, a new type of bulk nanostructured thermoelectric material Ag 1− x Pb m SbTe 2+ m (LAST) has been developed featuring significantly improved figure of merit ( ZT ) (up to 2.1 at 800 K). Its excellent ZT is largely attributed to the nanoscale coherent interface that promotes phonon scattering while havi…

Degradable phosphate glass fiber is a synthetic fiber and silk is one of the strongest natural fibers. In this study, composites are fabricated from PP reinforced with phosphate glass fiber and silk fiber using compression molding. Tensile testing, flexural testing and impact testing are carried out to evaluate the co…

Stufenweise: Erstmals wird für FeIII ein zweistufiger magnetischer Spinübergang mit strukturellen Phasenübergängen beschrieben. Die Übergänge werden beim Abkühlen bei 187 K und 90 K beobachtet; beim Erwärmen tritt eine Hysterese während des ersten Crossovers bei 106 K auf. Die Zwischenphase ist über einen Bereich von…

Bulk As40Se60 glass was prepared by melt quenching technique. Amorphous films of As40Se60 were prepared by thermal evaporation technique then exposed in UV light for 10 minutes. Virgin and exposed thin films were analyzed using transmission spectra to determine thickness (d), refractive index (n), extinction coefficie…

To overcome limitations of flow-induced rupturing and obtain nanodroplet sizes approaching the micellar scale, we make oil-in-water nanoemulsions having a dispersed phase that contains lower- and higher-molecular-weight oils. After nanoemulsion formation by extreme flow-induced droplet rupturing, the nanodroplets beco…

We report on the optimization of nanostructured copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) thin films for idealized organic photovoltaic (OPV) architectures using advanced substrate motion and periodic seeding. Oblique angle deposition (OAD), a subset of glancing angle deposition (GLAD), has recently been used to enhance small mole…

The freshwater common pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis produces embryos that complete direct development, hatching as shell-bearing individuals within 10 days despite relatively low ambient calcium and carbonate availability. This development is impaired by removal of ambient total calcium but not by removal of bicarbonat…

Mannose-substituted blue-fluorescent cationic conjugated polyelectrolyte ( P1 ) and yellow-fluorescent neutral conjugated oligomer ( 6 ) are synthesized via the combination of Suzuki coupling polymerization and click chemistry. The spectral overlap between the emission of P1 and the absorption of 6 allows one to blend…
