Unraveling the Uptake of Glyoxal on a Diversity of Natural Dusts and Surrogates: Linking Dust Composition to Glyoxal Uptake and Estimation of Atmospheric Lifetimes

The uptake of glyoxal (Gly) on 28 different samples with varying mineralogical origins, such as clays, mineral proxies, and natural dusts from the major arid regions of the Earth, was determined. Experiments were performed at ambient temperature inside a K ...

Essential role of oxygen vacancies of Cu-Al and Co-Al spinel oxides in their catalytic activity for the reverse water gas shift reaction

Ursula Röthlisberger, Jeremy Luterbacher, Oliver Kröcher, Pascal Alexander Schouwink, Murat Kiliç, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Alimohammad Bahmanpour, Christophe Jean Baranowski

CO2 catalytic hydrogenation to CO will likely be an important part of CO2 mitigation and valorization processes. Recently, we have developed materials containing surface-formed Cu-Al spinel that act as active and stable catalysts for this reaction. Here, t ...

The Appearance of the Warburg Effect in the Developing Avian Eye Characterized In Ovo: How Neurogenesis Can Remodel Neuroenergetics

Rolf Gruetter, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Laurent Brodier

PURPOSE. The avian eye is an established model for exploring mechanisms that coordinate morphogenesis and metabolism during embryonic development. Less is known, however, about trafficking of bioenergetic and metabolic signaling molecules that are involved ...

Microbial metabolism mediates interactions between dissolved organic matter and clay minerals in streamwater

Tom Ian Battin

Sorption of organic molecules to mineral surfaces is an important control upon the aquatic carbon (C) cycle. Organo-mineral interactions are known to regulate the transport and burial of C within inland waters, yet the mechanisms that underlie these proces ...

2D zeolite coatings: Langmuir-Schaefer deposition of 3 nm thick MFI zeolite nanosheets

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Prashant Kumar

Stable suspensions of zeolite nanosheets (3 nm thick MFI layers) were prepared in ethanol following acid treatment, which partially removed the associated organic structure-directing agent. Nanosheets from these suspensions could then be dispersed at the a ...

Beyond the lateral resolution limit by phase imaging

Christian Depeursinge, Muhammed Fatih Toy, Yann Jérôme Michel Pascal Cotte

We present a theory stating how to overcome the classical Rayleigh-resolution limit. It is based upon a new resolution criterion in phase of coherent imaging process and its spatial resolution is thought to be only SNR limited. Recently, the experimental o ...

Hyper-Raman spectrum of vitreous silica from first principles

Alfredo Pasquarello

We introduce a scheme for the calculation of nonresonant hyper-Raman spectra of vitreous materials within a density-functional formulation. Hyper-Raman tensors are obtained through the application of finite electric fields and explicitly account for the no ...

Low-T ferroelectricity in antiphase domain boundaries of SrTiO3

Alexander Tagantsev

The ferroelectric transition of bulk strontium titanate is suppressed by a combination of two effects: (1) the structural changes produced by the antiferrodistortive transition at T-a =105 K and (2) the quantum fluctuations. The structural changes are stro ...

Cataclastic fault rocks in underground excavations

Christoph Bürgi

The present study makes part of a research project on the geological and geomechanical characterisation of weak cataclastic fault rocks encountered in underground excavation sites in the Alps. The project is composed of a geological and a geomechanical par ...
