Chiral Nanohoops as an Efficient Spin Polarization System

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Chiral conjugated nanohoops with a central dibenzopentalene unit exhibit 90% spin polarization at low voltage and high conductivity. These properties make them ideal components in molecular spintronics applications. Abstract A central challenge in molecular spintronics is to achieve a high spin polarization at low operating voltages and ambient ...

Intrabandgap States Engineering in Functionalized Nanodiamond to Generate Solvated Electrons for Photocatalysis Under Solar Illumination

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The negative electron affinity of diamond allows to emit highly reductive electrons. By introducing intra‐bandgap states and an optimized electron transfer mechanism by surface functionalization with Ru(bpy)3, the formation of solvated electrons is achieved upon solar irradiation.

Proteins, Processing, and Properties of Adhesive Fluid Condensates Purified from Mussels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mussels exhibit an unmatched proficiency for adhering to wet surfaces in salty environments—a remarkable ability that could inspire new biomedical and technical glues. The fluid protein condensates used to form the underwater mussel glue are extracted, reconstituted and characterized with advanced spectroscopy and nanomechanical analysis, revealing ...

The Effect of the Purge–Mainstream Density Ratio on Rim Seal Fluid Mechanics

International Journal of Turbomachinery, Propulsion and Power
Significant density ratios arise in a gas turbine due to severe temperature gradients between the hot mainstream gases leaving the combustor and the superposed purge flow injected from the secondary air system. Engineers seek to minimise the ingestion of

Errors in Flow and Pressure Related to the Arterial Filter Purge Line

The Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology, 1998
The purge line is a necessary component on arterial filters, although its presence may affect the amount of flow reaching the patient as well as the pump outlet pressure in the extracorporeal circuit. In-vitro and clinical studies conducted to investigate these effects with a commonly used purge line showed that at flows less than 1.5 L/min, rates for ...

Design of a bioreactor to study the role of red blood cells in the transport of nitric oxide in the microcirculation [PDF]

, 2007
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in physiological functions like vasodilation, neurotransmission, and inhibition of platelet aggregation. The endothelium-derived NO diffuses into the vascular lumen where it interacts with flowing blood as well ...
