Effects of Se Incorporation in La5Ti2CuS5O7 by Annealing on Physical Properties and Photocatalytic H-2 Evolution Activity

Oxysulfoselenide semiconductor photocatalysts absorb light at longer wavelengths than the corresponding oxysulfides. However, the synthesis of oxysulfoselenides is challenging due to excessive particle growth and the limited availability of metal selenide ...

Twist-Induced Snapping in a Bent Elastic Rod and Ribbon

Tomohiko Sano

Snapping of a slender structure is utilized in a wide range of natural and manmade systems, mostly to achieve rapid movement without relying on musclelike elements. Although several mechanisms for elastic energy storage and rapid release have been studied ...

Data Mining the C-C Cross-Coupling Genome

Matthew Wodrich, Alberto Fabrizio, Benjamin André René Meyer, Boodsarin Sawatlon

The speed and precision of machine-learning (ML) techniques in determining quantum chemical properties has resulted in a considerable computational speed up in comparison to traditional quantum chemical methods, and now allows a desired property of thousan ...

The Jones–Ray Effect Is Not Caused by Surface-Active Impurities

Sylvie Roke, Halil Ibrahim Okur, Eric Tyrode

Pure aqueous electrolyte solutions display a minimum in surface tension at concentrations of 2 ± 1 mM. This effect has been a source of controversy since it was first reported by Jones and Ray in the 1930s. The Jones–Ray effect has frequently been dismisse ...

Single-step conversion of lignin monomers to phenol: Bridging the gap between lignin and high-value chemicals

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ning Yan

Transformation of lignin into high-value chemicals is hampered by the complexity of monomers obtained from lignin depolymerization. Here we report a strategy, composed of hydro-demethoxylation and de-alkylation reactions, that is able to chemically converg ...

Investigation of nanoparticle-protein interactions with novel methods

Ahmet Bekdemir

Advancements in novel nanomaterials present promising avenue for therapeutics and diagnosis in nanomedicine. Importantly, in these applications, nanoparticles (NPs) are almost instantly coated with a complex layer of proteins in biological environment, ter ...

Composite Materials Based on (Cymene)Ru(II) Curcumin Additives Loaded on Porous Carbon Adsorbents from Agricultural Residues Display Efficient Antibacterial Activity

Paul Joseph Dyson

Alternative composite materials with antibacterial activity have been developed by combining the porosity of carbon materials and the antibacterial activity of half sandwich (cymene)Ru-curcumin complexes. Different types of activated carbon were used, from ...

A Method to Form Smooth Films of Liquid Metal Supported by Elastomeric Substrate

Stéphanie Lacour, Arthur Edouard Hirsch

Several methods are proposed to manipulate and pattern liquid metal films into elastic conductors but all lack precise control over the film thickness and roughness, thereby limiting its uniformity, stability, and reproducibility. Here, an approach relying ...

Physics of Bubble-Propelled Microrockets

François Gallaire, Giacomo Gallino

A popular method to induce synthetic propulsion at the microscale is to use the forces created by surface-produced gas bubbles inside the asymmetric body of a catalytic swimmer (referred to in the literature as microrocket). Gas bubbles nucleate and grow w ...

Interference of engineered nanomaterials in flow cytometry: A case study

Aurélie Walter

Nanotechnology is regarded as the enabling technology of the 21st century. However, only a relatively small number of nano-enabled medical and healthcare products finally made their way to the market. There are several reasons why such innovative approache ...
