Origin of dielectric relaxor behavior in PVDF-based copolymer and terpolymer films
Relaxor ferroelectrics exhibit frequency-dispersion of their dielectric permittivity peak as a function of temperature, the origin of which has been widely debated. Microscopic understanding of such behavior for polymeric ferroelectrics has presented new

Diffusion in membranes: Toward a two-dimensional diffusion map
For decades, quasi-elastic neutron scattering has been the prime tool for studying molecular diffusion in membranes over relevant nanometer distances. These experiments are essential to our current understanding of molecular dynamics of lipids, proteins ...

Data Analysis for Time-Resolved QENS Experiments in Biophysics
To study the correlation between internal protein dynamics and protein functionality of bacteriorhodopsin, we have performed time-resolved quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) experiments combined with in situ laser activation of protein function.

QENS and the benefit of diffusion measurements over different length scales
The quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) technique was first used to derive self-diffusivities of hydrocarbons in zeolites, but transport diffusivities of deuterated molecules and of molecules which do not contain hydrogen atoms can now be measured. The technique allows to probe diffusion over length scales ranging from an Å to hundreds of Å.

Modulation of Protein Dynamics by Glycerol in Water-Soluble Chlorophyll-Binding Protein (WSCP)
Proteins are inherently dynamic entities that rely on flexibility across multiple timescales to perform their biological functions. The surrounding environment plays a critical role in modulating protein dynamics by exerting plasticizing or stabilizing ...
