We present an experimental and numerical investigation of the polarization anisotropy of the zero-order backdiffracted light from three-dimensional thin-film photonic crystals assembled from colloidal spheres. In particular, we compare simulations of reflectance spectra from perfectly ordered fcc lattice of spheres wi…

It is well established that inorganic arsenic induces neurotoxic effects and neurological defects in humans and laboratory animals. The cellular and molecular mechanisms of its actions, however, remain elusive. Herein we report the effects of arsenite (NaAsO2) on primary cultures of rat astrocytes. Cells underwent ind…

By means of multiscale theoretical techniques, we examined the ability of Mg 2+ to enhance H 2 storage in metal−organic frameworks. Ab initio calculations showed that Mg 2+ increases more than five times the interaction energy between the hydrogen molecules and the new proposed organic linker of the IRMOF-10, reaching…

The structure of 55-atom Li-Na and Na-K nanoalloys is determined through combined empirical potential (EP) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The potential energy surface generated by the EP model is extensively sampled by using the basin hopping technique, and a wide diversity of structural motifs is r…

By combining the iridium(III) ppy-type complex (Hppy=2-phenylpyridine) with a square-planar platinum(II) unit, some novel phosphorescent oligometallaynes bearing dual metal centers (viz. Ir(III) and Pt(II)) were developed by combining trans-[Pt(PBu(3))(2)Cl(2)] with metalloligands of iridium possessing bifunctional pe…

Repair of orbital bone defects caused by trauma, infection or cancer is a continuous challenge in reconstructive surgery. Few studies have reported the application of tissue engineering for the repair of orbital bone defects in large animal models. Thus, we investigated the effects of tissue-engineered bone enhanced b…

In this study, we present a novel coating with Zn‐releasing ability that promotes osseointegration of Ti6Al4V implants. The coatings were prepared by a sol–gel technique, and nanosized Zn‐containing β‐tricalcium phosphate particles were added to the Ca(NO 3 ) 2 –P 2 O 5 –HPF 6 sol system to incorporate Zn ions into fl…

Silicon monoxide (SiO) is a promising candidate for anodes in lithium rechargeable batteries, because of its large capacity. The initial irreversible reaction and still dissatisfactory capacity retention during cycling, however, hinder its practical application. A nanostructured SiAl 0.2 O composite material has been…

From the flow properties of dense granular suspensions on an inclined plane, we identify a mesoscopic length scale strongly increasing with volume fraction. When the flowing layer height is larger than this length scale, a diverging Newtonian viscosity is determined. However, when the flowing layer height drops below…

The properties of the phase shift of wave reflected from one-dimensional photonic crystals consisting of periodic layers of single-negative (permittivity- or permeability-negative) materials are demonstrated. As the incident angle increases, the reflection phase shift of TE wave decreases, while that of TM wave increa…
