Self-healing of optical functions by molecular metabolism in a swollen elastomer

AIP Advances, 2012
Optical functions of organic dyes, e.g., fluorescence or photochromism, tend to degrade by light irradiation, which causes a short lifetime of photonic devices.

Understanding and Optimizing Li Substitution in P2‐Type Sodium Layered Oxides for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work explores Li‐substituted P2 layered oxides for Na‐ion batteries by crystallographic and electrochemical studies. The effect of lithium on superstructure orderings, on phase transitions during synthesis and electrochemical cycling and on the interplay of O‐ versus TM‐redox is revealed via various advanced techniques, including semi‐simultaneous

The Danish High Risk and Resilience Study – VIA 7 - a cohort study of 520 7-year-old children born of parents diagnosed with either schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or neither of these two mental disorders

BMC Psychiatry, 2015
BackgroundSevere mental illnesses like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are known to be diseases that to some extent, but not entirely can be understood genetically.

Applying MOG to lensing: Einstein rings, Abell 520 and the Bullet Cluster

, 2018
We investigate gravitational lensing in the context of the MOG modified theory of gravity. Using a formulation of the theory with no adjustable or fitted parameters, we present the MOG equations of motion for slow, nonrelativistic test particles and for ...

From Low Symmetry to High Dissymmetry: Chiral Plasmonic Films of Binary and Nanobipyramid Assemblies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work develops highly dissymmetric chiral plasmonic thin films by helically assembling gold nano bipyramids within a liquid‐crystal template. Engineering of the chiroptical response is achieved by varying particle size and geometry, as well as preparing binary assemblies.

Transient Stiffness Patterning in Hydrogels Driven by Dissipative Mechanochemical Coupling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Force‐induced disulfide bond rupture in a polymer‐based hydrogel, coupled with chemical or electrochemical reoxidation, leads to the transient modulation of the hydrogel's stiffness properties. High spatiotemporal control is achieved by this dissipative process, enabling the development of out‐of‐equilibrium stiffness patterns and transient, dose ...

Protection by Hypothermia of Hypoxia-Induced Inhibition of Neurogenic Vasodilation in Porcine Cerebral Arteries

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
Porcine cerebral arterial strips denuded of the endothelium responded to transmural electrical stimulation (5 Hz for 40 s) with a relaxation, which was abolished by tetrodotoxin and N G-nitro-L-arginine, a NO synthase inhibitor.

Memristor property of an amorphous Sn–Ga–O thin-film device deposited using mist chemical-vapor-deposition method

AIP Advances, 2020
A memristor property of an amorphous Sn–Ga–O (α-TGO) thin-film device deposited using a mist chemical-vapor-deposition (mist-CVD) method has been found. The α-TGO device can be manufactured at a low cost because it does not include rare metals such as In.

Understanding the Chemical and Electronic Properties of Sub‐Monolayer TiO2 on High Surface Area Silica for Jet Fuel Synthesis Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Sub‐monolayer titania grafted onto mesoporous silica enables solvent‐free photocatalytic upgrading of furfural and cyclopentanone into jet fuel precursors. Advanced spectroscopic methods reveal tunable surface speciation, acidity, and bandgaps, enhancing catalytic efficiency.
