We propose an efficient method to achromatically transform a circularly polarized beam to a radially polarized beam in the visible range using segmented subwavelength metal wire gratings. We present a theoretical analysis of the relationship between the polarization purity of the transmitted beams and the number of se…

Abstract The stereosequence of polylactide has been analyzed with 13 C‐NMR spectroscopy, according to which syndiotactic addition is preferred. According to Markovian statistics, the reactivity ratio, which determines the extent of the syndiotactic stereosequence in the polymer chain, can be calculated by an analysis…

Just say NO: The catalytic activity of Cu/zeolites for NO removal depends on the metal cation coordination to the framework. The most active catalysts are those with CuI loosely coordinated to the framework. The catalytic cycle is investigated using a periodic DFT model to account for the effect of the zeolite on the…

It is shown that the temperature effect on the variance of local shear stresses is the main factor pre-determining the temperature law of the yield stress of nano-sized crystals. The results of molecular dynamics simulations of uniaxial tension of Mo, α-Fe and W nanowires in three crystallographic directions ([100], […

A tight-binding model for ${e}_{\text{g}}$ electrons coupled to Jahn-Teller lattice distortions is studied via Monte Carlo simulations. By focusing on the periodicity of the cooperative Jahn-Teller distortions, and the one-particle spectral function, our results clarify the physical origin of the Fermi-arcs phase obse…
