Identification of bulk oxide defects in an electrochemical environment

open access: yesFaraday Discussions, 2015
We discuss how electronic-structure calculations can be used to identify the dominant point defects that control the growth and dissolution of the oxide barrier layer formed if a metal comes into contact with a corrosive environment.

Charged Point Defects in the Flatland: Accurate Formation Energy Calculations in Two-Dimensional Materials

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2014
Impurities and defects frequently govern materials properties, with the most prominent example being the doping of bulk semiconductors where a minute amount of foreign atoms can be responsible for the operation of the electronic devices.

Dislocation as a bulk probe of higher-order topological insulators

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
Topological materials occupy the central stage in the modern condensed matter physics because of their robust metallic edge or surface states protected by the topological invariant, characterizing the electronic band structure in the bulk.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Engineering single defects in silicon carbide bulk, nanostructures and devices

open access: yes, 2016
We will review recent demonstrations of single photon emission in different silicon carbide (SiC) polytypes, in both bulk and nano-structured form. Due to well established doping, and microand nanofabrication procedures deep defects photoluminescence (PL)

A Theoretical Simulation of the Radiation Responses of Si, Ge, and Si/Ge Superlattice to Low-Energy Irradiation

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2018
In this study, the low-energy radiation responses of Si, Ge, and Si/Ge superlattice are investigated by an ab initio molecular dynamics method and the origins of their different radiation behaviors are explored.

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Nanometre-scale 3D defects in Cr2AlC thin films

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
MAX-phase Cr2AlC containing thin films were synthesized by magnetron sputtering in an industrial system. Nanometre-scale 3D defects are observed near the boundary between regions of Cr2AlC and of the disordered solid solution (CrAl)xCy.

Density Functional Theory Study of the Point Defects on KDP (100) and (101) Surfaces

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Surface defects are usually associated with the formation of other forms of expansion defects in crystals, which have an impact on the crystals’ growth quality and optical properties.
