The aim of this study is to investigate the wear resistance of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films and wear debris of polyethylene using pin-on-disc testing on two groups of CoCrMo discs with DLC coatings. DLC coatings depos...

The possibility of a type-IIb diamond as the foundation for double-drift region (DDR) impact avalanche transit time (IMPATT) devices that operate at THz frequencies has been investigated. In this study, the large-signal ...

Diamond has attracted great interest as an appealing material for various applications ranging from classical to quantum optics. To date, Raman lasers, single photon sources, quantum sensing and quantum communication hav...

The ST1 center is a point defect in diamond with bright fluorescence and a mechanism for optical spin initialization and readout. The center has impressive potential for applications in diamond quantum computing as a qua...

The structure and energetics of two types of oxygen-terminated diamond surfaces, the keto and ether configurations, were investigated by density functional theory. To explore OH generation, we studied the approach of a h...

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) color center in diamond has rapidly emerged as an important solid-state system for quantum information processing. Whereas individual spin registers have been used to implement small-scale diamo...

Results on stress analysis for single-crystal diamonds are presented. Isolated crystals were studied by Raman mapping and depth profiling techniques, using confocal microscopy. Diamonds were deposited on molybdenum and t...

ABSTRACT While the interplay between phonon and boundary dictates thermal transport at the nanoscale, the spectral manipulation of phonon‐boundary scattering is insufficiently demonstrated yet. Here, we choose a single...

In this study, a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode modified with cobalt oxide nanoparticles (CoONPs) is proposed as a working electrode for hydrocortisone (HC) detection in 0.1 M NaOH. CoONPs were synthesized via a g...

The Diamond Dove Geopelia cuneata, an Australian endemic, was recorded from Sikhna Jwhwlao National Park, Assam, India. As the species does not occur naturally in South Asia, its presence is most plausibly explained as a...

This work describes the design and optimization of a printed circuit board containing a rectangular half-loop coil designed to apply radio frequency signals on micrometric diamond crystals. The structure was optimized to...

All pilots are required to calculate aircraft performance parameters prior to flight. This includes takeoff and landing distances. Traditionally, pilots in training have planned for takeoff and landing performance using ...

IntroductionExcessive plantar pressure has been recognized as a key risk factor for diabetic foot ulceration.MethodsTo address this problem, a partition-infilled functional insole based on triply periodic minimal surface...

The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Plutellidae: Yponomeutoidea) is the most destructive pest in Brassicaceae crops worldwide. This paper describes the status of P. xylostella and its natural enemies in a wid...

ObjectiveTo improve the rock-breaking efficiency and durability of drill bits in the theoretical research on the optimal design of drill bits, the key is to systematically reveal both the rock-breaking mechanisms of poly...

The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond is very sensitive to magnetic and electric fields, strain, and temperature. In addition, it is possible to optically interrogate individual defects, making it an ideal quantum-...

Topological charges of nodal lines in a multigap system are represented by non-Abelian numbers, and the Euler class, a topological invariant, can be used to explain their topological phase transitions, such as pair-annih...

Abstract Introduction Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHa) is widely used in aesthetic procedures as a collagen biostimulator. Objective This study evaluated how different concentrations of CaHA (0.5% to 2.5%) in three commer...

Methods for producing and the structure of opal matrices (ordered packings of SiO₂ nanospheres) and multilayer structures based on them (opal matrix/diamond-like carbon, opal matrix/Ni/diamond-like carbon, etc.) are co...

BackgroundNewborn screening (NBS) with kappa-deleting recombination excision circles (KRECs) is primarily used to detect B cell lymphopenia and agammaglobulinemia as markers of inborn errors of immunity (IEIs). However, ...

Abstract Bone tissue engineering scaffolds must provide structural support while permitting fluid transport and maintaining safe hydrodynamic conditions for cell activity. Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) architect...
