Selective Localization of Hierarchically Assembled Particles to Plasma Membranes of Living Cells

Francesco Stellacci, Randy Patrick Carney

Particles that preferentially partition to a specific cellular subunit, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, or the cytoskeleton, are of relevance to a number of applications, including drug delivery, genetic manipulation, or self-assembly. Here, hierarchica ...

Elastostatic loading of metallic glass-crystal nanocomposites: Relationship of creep rate and interface energy

Tobias Brink

We study the creep behavior of Cu64Zr36 glass-crystal nanocomposites under elastostatic loading conditions in molecular dynamics simulations. By manipulating the glass-crystal interfaces of a precipitation-annealed glass containing Laves-type crystallites, ...

Influence of Disorder and Finite-Size Effects on Slow Light Transport in Extended Photonic Crystal Coupled-Cavity Waveguides

Romuald Houdré, Vincenzo Savona, Momchil Minkov, Mohamed Sabry Abdel-Aliem Mohamed

A convenient approach for slowing down light in integrated optical circuits is by utilizing a set of coupled microcavities in a photonic crystal lattice. While this provides for flexibility in dispersion engineering, light transport is influenced by a comb ...
