Knowledge of the atomic-level structure is key to understanding and predicting properties of materials. X-ray diffraction (XRD) is the methods of choice for structures containing well-defined long-range order. However, many materials contain various degree ...

Rapid Structure Determination of Molecular Solids Using Chemical Shifts Directed by Unambiguous Prior Constraints

David Lyndon Emsley, Arthur César Pinon, Albert Hofstetter, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Martins Balodis

NMR-based crystallography approaches involving the combination of crystal structure prediction methods, ab initio calculated chemical shifts and solid-state NMR experiments are powerful methods for crystal structure determination of microcrystalline powder ...

A Bayesian approach to NMR crystal structure determination

David Lyndon Emsley, Michele Ceriotti, Albert Hofstetter, Edgar Albert Engel, Federico Maria Paruzzo, Andrea Anelli

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is particularly well suited to determine the structure of molecules and materials in powdered form. Structure determination usually proceeds by finding the best match between experimentally observed NMR chemica ...

Active apolar doping determines routes to colloidal clusters and gels

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Collections of interacting active particles, self-propelling or not, have shown remarkable phenomena including the emergence of dynamic patterns across different length scales, from animal groups to vibrated grains, microtubules, bacteria, and chemicalor f ...

The recent discovery of shape memory behavior in Mg-Sc alloys has opened the door to the possibility of lightweight shape memory alloys. Very little is known, however, about martensitic phase transformations or about equilibrium phase stability in this all ...

Symmetries and optical transitions of hexagonal quantum dots in GaAs/AlGaAs nanowires

Marc-André Dupertuis

We investigate the properties of electronic states and optical transitions in hexagonal GaAs quantum dots within Al0.3Ga0.7As nanowires, grown in axial direction [111]. Such dots are particularly interesting due to their high degree of symmetry. A streamli ...

Efficient dynamic nuclear Efficient dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in solids, which enables very high sensitivity NMR experiments, is currently limited to temperatures of around 100 K and below. Here we show how by choosing an adequate solvent, 1H cros ...

Laue's experiment in 1912 of the diffraction of X-rays by crystals led to one of the most influential discoveries in the history of science: the first determinations of crystal structures, NaCl and diamond in particular, by W. L. Bragg in 1913. For the fir ...

Exciton recombination dynamics in tailored-potential, site-controlled AlGaAs quantum wires (QWRs) are studied. Time-resolved photoluminescence spectra evidence exciton localization in weakly disordered "uniform" QWRs, whereas deterministic bandgap grading ...
