The Homo floresiensis Controversy

Hayati Journal of Biosciences, 2007
A completely new and unexpected quasi human species, Homo floresiensis, nicknamed the Hobbit, was described in 2004 from Liang Bua, a cave in Flores. Like many important new contributions to the human fossil record in the past, many commentators refused ...

Highly Sensitive Electrochemical Biosensor Based on Hairy Particles with Controllable High Enzyme Loading and Activity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
For the first time, a highly sensitive electrochemical biosensor based on SiO2‐based hairy particles with a grafted PDMAEMA polymer brush containing a quantifiable and large amount of immobilized Laccase is reported. The fabricated biosensor exhibits a sensitivity of 0.14 A·m⁻¹, a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 µm, and a detection range of 0.3–750 µm,

Moment free energies for polydisperse systems

, 2000
A polydisperse system contains particles with at least one attribute $\sigma$ (such as particle size in colloids or chain length in polymers) which takes values in a continuous range.

Understanding Postdeposition Treatments of Hole‐Transporting Self‐Assembling Molecules for Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The influence of postdeposition treatments on the formation of self‐assembling (mono)layers commonly utilized as hole transport layers in perovskite‐based solar cells is thoroughly investigated. The implementation of a washing step and an annealing step at temperatures exceeding the current literature standards leads to an enhanced layer quality and ...

Systematic Reduction of the Detailed Kinetic Mechanism for the Combustion of n-Butane

Journal of Chemistry, 2016
A systematic approach for mechanism reduction was demonstrated to generate a skeletal and reduced mechanism for the oxidation of n-butane. First, a skeletal mechanism, including 89 species and 440 elementary reactions, was derived from a 230-species ...

Complex dynamics in coevolution models with ratio-dependent functional response

, 2009
We explore the complex dynamical behavior of two simple predator-prey models of biological coevolution that on the ecological level account for interspecific and intraspecific competition, as well as adaptive foraging behavior.

Fluorophobic Effect Enables Selective Detection of PFAS in Water with Electrolyte‐Gated Organic Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
PerFluoroAlkyl Substances (PFAS) are responsible of major and persistent environmental pollution worldwide. This work demonstrates an ultra‐sensitive sensor for PFAS based on an organic transistor whose gate is functionalized with a binary self‐assembled monolayer containing a perfluorinated molecule.

Ergodicity and Slowing Down in Glass-Forming Systems with Soft Potentials: No Finite-Temperature Singularities

, 2008
The aim of this paper is to discuss some basic notions regarding generic glass forming systems composed of particles interacting via soft potentials. Excluding explicitly hard-core interaction we discuss the so called `glass transition' in which super ...

Unraveling Mixed‐Defect Transformations and Passivation Dynamics in Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Defects in materials coexist in multiple forms, undergo dynamic transformations, and influence the material properties. Here, the dynamic transformations of passivation‐related defects in silicon heterojunctions are revealed through the decomposition of dual‐phase capacitance transients.
