High-κ Wide-Gap Layered Dielectric for Two-Dimensional van der Waals Heterostructures
Andras Kis, Edoardo Lopriore, Asmund Kjellegaard Ottesen, Gabriele Pasquale
van der Waals heterostructures of two-dimensional materials have unveiled frontiers in condensed matter physics, unlocking unexplored possibilities in electronic and photonic device applications. However, the investigation of wide-gap, high-kappa layered d ...
2024Solvent- and catalyst-free reduction of CO2 with ammonia borane
Andreas Züttel, Youngdon Ko, Liping Zhong
Ammonia borane (AB) has been extensively studied as a solid-state hydrogen storage material. On the other hand, its reactivity with CO2 is still unclear, especially in the solid state. By carefully controlling the CO2 pressure and temperature, AB efficient ...
Cambridge2024Flash Melting Amorphous Ice
Marcel Drabbels, Ulrich Lorenz, Constantin Richard Krüger, Nathan Junior Mowry, Gabriele Bongiovanni
Water can be vitrified if it is cooled at high rates, which makes it possible to outrun crystallization in so-called no man’s land, a range of deeply supercooled temperatures where water crystallizes rapidly. Here, we study the reverse process in pure wate ...
2024Tandem catalysis enables chlorine-containing waste as chlorination reagents
Paul Joseph Dyson, Mingyang Liu, Xinbang Wu
Chlorinated compounds are ubiquitous. However, accumulation of chlorine-containing waste has a negative impact on human health and the environment due to the inapplicability of common disposal methods, such as landfill and incineration. Here we report a su ...
Berlin2024Shaped Laser Pulses for Microsecond Time-Resolved Cryo-EM: Outrunning Crystallization during Flash Melting
Marcel Drabbels, Constantin Richard Krüger, Nathan Junior Mowry
Water vitrifies if cooled at rates above 3 × 105 K/s. In contrast, when the resulting amorphous ice is flash heated, crystallization occurs even at a more than 10 times higher heating rate, as we have recently shown. This may present an issue for microseco ...
2024Automatic and high-precision microseismic monitoring of progressive failure prior, during, and after tunnel excavation
Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Seyyedmaalek Momeni, Christophe Nussbaum
Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring is commonly used to inspect the health of a structure continuously. During fracture processes elastic waves of AE are created and emitted, and sensors can capture these waves. The acquired signals can be processed to track ...
2023koopmans: An Open-Source Package for Accurately and Efficiently Predicting Spectral Properties with Koopmans Functionals
Nicola Marzari, Nicola Colonna, Edward Baxter Linscott, Ngoc Linh Nguyen, Giovanni Borghi, Riccardo De Gennaro, Andrea Ferretti
Over the past decade we have developed Koopmans functionals, a computationally efficient approach for predicting spectral properties with an orbital-density-dependent functional framework. These functionals impose a generalized piecewise linearity conditio ...
Washington2023Vibrational NDT with Under-sampled Data through Physics-informed Neural Networks
The vibrational response of solid materials and structural components is substantially governed by their mechanical and geometrical properties. Low-frequency vibrations and modal frequencies are sensitive to global geometrical deviations, while high-freque ...
2023High-resolution scintillation detector for two-dimensional reconstruction
Alessandro Mapelli, Arnaud Bertsch, Fabrizio Carbone, Veronica Leccese
A scintillation device including a silicon plate having a rectangular shape and having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, wherein the first side includes a plurality of first channels arranged to be in parallel with each other extendin ...
2023Coupled Rotary and Oscillatory Motion in a Second-Generation Molecular Motor Pd Complex
Molecular machines offer many opportunities for the development of responsive materials and introduce autono-mous motion in molecular systems. While basic molecular switches and motors carry out one type of motion upon being exposed to an external stimulus ...
