A versatile platform for graphene nanoribbon synthesis, electronic decoupling, and spin polarized measurements

The on-surface synthesis of nano-graphenes has led the charge in prototyping structures with perspectives beyond silicon-based technology. Following reports of open-shell systems in graphene-nanoribbons (GNRs), a flurry of research activity was directed at ...

Colloidal-ALD Grown Hybrid Shells Nucleate via a Ligand–Precursor Complex

David Lyndon Emsley, Raffaella Buonsanti, Anna Loiudice, Kevin Rossi, Michael Allan Hope, Snaedis Björgvinsdóttir, Ona Segura Lecina, Amrit Venkatesh

Colloidal atomic layer deposition (c-ALD) enables the growth of hybrid organic/inorganic oxide shells with tunable thickness at the nanometer scale around ligand-functionalized inorganic nanoparticles (NPs). This recently developed method has demonstrated ...

Mechanical Characterization of Integrally-Attached Timber Plate Structures: Experimental studies and macro modeling technique

Aryan Rezaei Rad

Spurred by the recent advancements in Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Integral Mechanical Attachment (IMA) technique has been resurrected. Using IMAs, connections between timber elements are established through their form, instead of using additional connecto ...

X-Shell, a new spatial deployable lattice compared to traditional reticulated shells

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Francis Julian Panetta, Etienne Bouleau

The χ-Shells is a new kind of deployable reticulated shells that has features comparable to other traditional shells. Its deployment uses the mechanical properties of a beam grid to generate a three-dimensional shape. This new generation of reticulated she ...

X-Shells: A new class of deployable beam structures

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Mina Konakovic Lukovic, Francis Julian Panetta, Etienne Bouleau

We present X-shells, a new class of deployable structures formed by an ensemble of elastically deforming beams coupled through rotational joints. An X-shell can be assembled conveniently in a flat configuration from standard elastic beam elements and then ...

Reducing the shell thickness of double emulsions using microfluidics

Esther Amstad, Antoine Claude Jean Vian

Double emulsion drops are well-suited templates to produce capsules whose dimensions can be conveniently tuned by adjusting those of the drops. To closely control the release kinetics of encapsulants, the composition and thickness of the capsule shell must ...

On the Nature of Interactions of Radicals with Polar Molecules

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Peter Rudolf Tentscher

Solvated radicals play an important role in many areas of chemistry, but to date, the nature of their interactions with polar solvent molecules lacks chemical interpretation. We present a computational quantum chemical analysis of the binding motives of bi ...

Core-Shell GaAs Nanowire p-n Junctions from Growth to Photovoltaic and Optoelectronic Applications

Carlo Colombo

Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) are filamentary crystals with the diameter ranging from few tens up to few hundreds of nanometers. In the last 15 years, they have been intensively studied for the prospectives that their unique quasi-one dimensional shape off ...

The Connectome Viewer Toolkit: an open source framework to manage, analyze, and visualize connectomes

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Alessandro Daducci, Patric Hagmann, Alia Lemkaddem

Advanced neuroinformatics tools are required for methods of connectome mapping, analysis, and visualization. The inherent multi-modality of connectome datasets poses new challenges for data organization, integration, and sharing. We have designed and imple ...

The Holt-Klee condition for oriented matroids

Holt and Klee have recently shown that every (generic) LP orientation of the graph of a d-polytope satisfies a directed version of the d-connectivity property, i.e. there are d internally disjoint directed paths from a unique source to a unique sink. We in ...
