A Versatile Approach to Stabilize Liquid-Liquid Interfaces using Surfactant Self-Assembly

Stabilizing liquid-liquid interfaces, whether between miscible or immiscible liquids, is crucial for a wide range of applications, including energy storage, microreactors, and biomimetic structures. In this study, a versatile approach for stabilizing the w ...

Photonic nanostructures mimicking floral epidermis for perovskite solar cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Hobeom Kim

Here, we report photonic nanostructures replicated from the adaxial epidermis of flower petals onto light-polymerized coatings using low-cost nanoimprint lithography at ambient temperature. These multifunctional nanocoatings are applied to confer enhanced ...

Insight into the Growth of Anisotropic CdSe Nanocrystals: Attachment of Intrinsically Different Building Blocks

Martinus Gijs, Virendra Kumar Parashar, Xiaopeng Huang

An in-depth understanding of the growth mechanism of nanocrystals (NCs) is of great significance for shape control of colloidal semiconductor nanostructures. In this study, we elucidate the formation mechanism of anisotropic CdSe NCs by systematically inve ...

Mechanism of uranium reduction and immobilization in Desulfovibrio vulgaris biofilms

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Malgorzata Alicja Stylo

The prevalent formation of noncrystalline U(IV) species in the subsurface and their enhanced susceptibility to reoxidation and remobilization, as compared to crystalline uraninite, raise concerns about the long-term sustainability of the bioremediation of ...

Modern pollen rain and fungal spore assemblages from pasture woodlands around Lake Saint-Point (France)

François Gillet

Modern analogs are commonly used to investigate the relationships between modern pollen rain and the surrounding present vegetation and to improve our interpretation of fossil data. We collected modern pollen and spore rain in 18 more or less grazed and/or ...

Thermally Induced Cooperative Molecular Reorientation and Nanoscale Polarization Switching Behaviors of Ultrathin Poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) Films

Nava Setter, Igor Stolichnov, Dong Guo

Ultrathin films of the ferroelectric polymer poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] have recently attracted intensive research interest due to their potential applications in emerging organic devices. As special geometry confinement syst ...

We introduce a novel technique for grabbing water with a flexible solid. This new passive pipetting mechanism was inspired by floating flowers and relies purely on the coupling of the elasticity of thin plates and the hydrodynamic forces at the liquid inte ...

Species-specific effects of polyploidisation and plant traits of Centaurea maculosa and Senecio inaequidens on rhizosphere microorganisms

Alexandre Buttler, Edward Mitchell, Aurélie Thébault

Invasive plant species represent a threat to terrestrial ecosystems, but their effects on the soil biota and the mechanisms involved are not yet well understood. Many invasive species have undergone polyploidisation, leading to the coexistence of various c ...

POLLEN CLUMPING AND WIND DISPERSAL IN AN INVASIVE ANGIOSPERM

Marc Parlange, Charles Vivant Ignacio Meneveau, Michael David Martin

Pollen dispersal is a fundamental aspect of plant reproductive biology that maintains connectivity between spatially separated populations. Pollen clumping, a characteristic feature of insect-pollinated plants, is generally assumed to be a detriment to win ...
