An updated picture of the ligand sets and copper-ligand atom bond lengths in proteins is presented which takes advantage of (i) the approximately twofold increase in the number of entries for copper-containing proteins in the PDB since the last study of th ...
The present study evaluated the potential of using the phase of T-2* weighted MR images to characterize myelination during brain development and pathology in rodents at 9.4 T. Phase contrast correlated with myelin content assessed by histology and suggests ...
We report inelastic neutron-scattering measurements of crystal-field transitions in PrFeAsO, PrFeAsO0.87F0.13, and NdFeAsO0.85F0.15. Doping with fluorine produces additional crystal-field excitations, providing evidence that there are two distinct charge e ...
Semiconductor nanowires offer a wide range of opportunities for newgenerations of nanoscale electronic and optic devices. For these applications to become reality, deeper understanding of the fundamental properties of the nanowires is required. In this the ...
Bind and distort: NitroDOPA, an anchor shown to irreversibly couple dispersants and functional groups to superparamagnetic Fe 3O 4 nanoparticles, can magnetically decouple Fe 3+ in a nanoparticle surface layer. The strong binding of nitroDOPA distorts the ...
GaAs nanowires with 100% wurtzite structure are synthesized by the vapor-liquid-solid method in a molecular beam epitaxy system, using gold as a catalyst. We use resonant Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence to determine the position of the crystal-fie ...
A giant spin splitting has been observed in surface alloys on noble metal (111) surfaces as a result of a strong structural modification at the surface as well as the large atomic spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of the alloy atoms. These surface alloys are an ...
This study compares the performance and the reproducibility of quantitative T2, T2* and the magnetisation transfer ratio (MTR) of articular cartilage at 7T and 3T. ...
High-resolution X-ray computed tomography is employed to obtain the exact 3D geometrical configuration of porous anisotropic ceria applied in solar-driven thermochemical cycles for splitting H2O and CO2. The tomography data are, in turn, used in direct por ...
The important source of interface conductivity in LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures, the Ti 3d carriers, is probed with resonant inelastic x-ray scattering at the Ti 2p(3/2) edge of epitaxially grown superlattices. We reveal unambiguously the generation of bo ...
