Self-Assembly of N-Rich Triimidazoles on Ag(111): Mixing the Pleasures and Pains of Epitaxy and Strain

Christian Wäckerlin, Ulrich Aschauer, Xing Wang, Mehdi Heydari

In the present report, homochiral hydrogen-bonded assemblies of heavily N-doped (C9H6N6) heterocyclic triimidazole (TT) molecules on an Ag(111) substrate were investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) ...

A new method for lattice reduction using directional and hyperplanar shearing

Cyril Cayron

A geometric method of lattice reduction based on cycles of directional and hyperplanar shears is presented. The deviation from cubicity at each step of the reduction is evaluated by a parameter called 'basis rhombicity' which is the sum of the absolute val ...

A Low-Parametric Rhombic Microstructure Family for Irregular Lattices

New fabrication technologies have significantly decreased the cost of fabrication of shapes with highly complex geometric structure. One important application of complex fine-scale geometric structures is to create variable effective elastic material prope ...

Vase-Kite Equilibrium of Resorcin[4]arene Cavitands Investigated Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations with Ball-and-Stick Local Elevation Umbrella Sampling

Jovana Milic

A key feature of resorcin[4]arene cavitands is their ability to switch between a closed/contracted (Vase) and an open/expanded (Kite) conformation. The mechanism and dynamics of this interconversion remains, however, elusive. In the present study, the Vase ...

Misfit-driven β′′′ precipitate composition and morphology in Mg-Nd alloys

Anirudh Raju Natarajan

We report on a combined computational and experimental examination of coherent precipitation in a Mg-Nd alloy, a prototypical Mg-rare earth alloy. Three-dimensional phase field simulations are conducted to predict the composition and morphology of precipit ...

Self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates for growth of pyramidal quantum dots by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on patterned substrates

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Benjamin Dwir, Romain Carron, Pascal Gallo, Alessandro Surrente

We demonstrate the self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates on GaAs (111)B substrates patterned with arrays of inverted tetrahedral pyramids during metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy and its role in producing high-symmetry, site-controlled quantum dots (QD ...

Decoding the Population Activity of Grid Cells for Spatial Localization and Goal-Directed Navigation

Alexander Mathis

Mammalian grid cells fire whenever an animal crosses the points of an imaginary, hexagonal grid tessellating the environment. Here, we show how animals can localize themselves and navigate by reading-out a simple population vector of grid cell activity acr ...

Rotor Design Optimization for a Reaction Sphere Actuator

Yves Perriard, Leopoldo Rossini

This paper presents the rotor design optimization for a reaction sphere (RS) actuator. The RS is a permanent-magnet synchronous spherical actuator whose rotor is magnetically levitated and can be accelerated about any desired axis. The RS is composed of an ...

Planck 2013 results. XXVI. Background geometry and topology of the Universe

Julien Lesgourgues, Jason Douglas McEwen, Fabio Finelli

The new cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps from Planck provide the highest-quality full-sky view of the surface of last scattering available to date. This allows us to detect possible departures from the standard model of a globally homogen ...
