Femtosecond laser direct writing is widely exploited in surface periodic structures processing. However, this technique still faces challenges in obtaining high surface homogeneity and flexible morphology controllability...

The solid-state Cd0.75X0.25Te (X= Cu, Ag, and Au) solutions crystallize in the cubic structure and are studied in the framework of density functional theory. The theoretical first-principle calculations of the electronic...

We propose and theoretically and numerically investigate integrated diffraction gratings for the Bloch surface wave (BSW) platform, which have subwavelength or near-subwavelength period. We demonstrate that, in the obliq...

Chlorite dismutase (Cld) is a b-type hemecontaining enzymethat catalyzes the reduction of chlorite into chloride plus dioxygen. This enzyme has gained attention because it can be used in the development of bioremediation...

Circularly polarized light emitting active materials are of great interest, and the convenient tuning of the circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) remains a significant challenge. Integrating fluorescent materials into...

An ultra-thin transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) layer can support guided exciton-polariton modes due to the strong coupling between excitons and photons. Herein, we report the guided mode resonance in an ultra-thin ...

Three-dimensional electron diffraction (3D ED) has become increasingly popular over the last two decades, challenging the limits of established single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments. In particular, continuous-rota...

UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGGT) flags misfolded glycoproteins for ER retention. We report crystal structures of full-length Chaetomium thermophilum UGGT (CtUGGT), two CtUGGT double-cysteine mutants, a...

Nanoscaled (about 15 nm of size) metastable carbide Co3C was synthesized in a high-energy planetary ball mill by mechanical alloying of a mixture of powder cobalt (75 at. %) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT, 25 at. ...

Layered double hydroxide (LDH) compounds are characterized by structures in which layers with a brucite-like structure carry a net positive charge, usually due to the partial substitution of trivalent octahedrally coordi...

In order to optimize the conditions for dissipative-free electric current transport, the influence of chemical composition, temperature and magnetic field on phase transitions in model HTSC objects – granular high-temp...

Ferroelectric oxide nanocrystals, in combination with the robust coupling of an electric field with crystal structure symmetry, makes such systems agreeable to field-induced crystal structural transformation. The lumines...

Abstract The effect of substitution of the ion instead of La+3 in the superconductor was studied, an increase in electrostatic potential energy E. P. (E) with increase of Sr % was noticed, and a step change in P. E. when...

Background. The increase in technogenic electromagnetic load leaves open the question of its impact on living cells, which do not have a specific evolutionary mechanism for responding to such an environmental factor. Cur...

Entre los 32º37’02" LS – 65º27’28" LO y 32º39’31" LS – 65º23’36" LO se encuentra un grupo de pegmatitas pertenecientes al Grupo Villa Praga-Las Lagunas, subgrupos Concarán y Tilisarao-Renca. Son pegmatit...

Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), the bacterium that causes citrus canker, contains a gene in the hrp [for hypersensitive response (HR) and pathogenicity] cluster that encodes a harpin protein called Hpa1. Hpa1 pro...

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a laser-writing-induced selective chemical etching (LWISCE) technique for effective micro-fabrication of lithium niobate (LN) crystal. Laser writing of LN crystal produces negati...

Abstract Two-dimensional antimony is a promising candidate for various emerging technological applications. The ability of antimony thin films to undergo crystalline–amorphous phase transitions under laser irradiation ...

Abstract Our bone health as an adult is defined by patterns of development in early life, with perturbed growth during fetal and neonatal periods predisposing individuals to poor bone health in adulthood. Studies have id...

Numerous theoretical studies using various equation of state models have shown that quark matter may exist at the extreme densities in the cores of high-mass neutron stars. It has also been shown that a phase transition ...

Fe-doped TiO2 (2, 5, 10, 15 and 20% wt. of Fe) photocatalysts have been synthesized by sol-gel method using titanium aquacomplex precursor. The structure and morphology have been characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, and EDS a...

The role of eumelanin as a natural pigment in protecting human skin from ultraviolet (UV) light has drawn vast interest in the research and industrial community. Encapsulation of the compound by various shell materials h...
