Multiple Soft-Mode Vibrations of Lead Zirconate [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2014
Polarized Raman, IR and time-domain THz spectroscopy of orthorhombic lead zirconate single crystals yielded a comprehensive picture of temperature-dependent quasiharmonic frequencies of its low-frequency phonon modes. It is argued that these modes primarily involve vibration of Pb and/or oxygen octahedra librations and their relation to particular ...

Nonlinear modes disentangle glassy and Goldstone modes in structural glasses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
One outstanding problem in the physics of glassy solids is understanding the statistics and properties of the low-energy excitations that stem from the disorder that characterizes these systems' microstructure.

On a correlation between EPR data for SASeD doped with Cr3+ and soft modes

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2007
PR experimental results obtained for SASeD doped with Cr3+ are reported with special emphasis on those observations which reveal the effect of soft modes i.e. the temperature dependence of the DZZ spin-Hamiltonian parameter and the temperature dependence

Visible and infrared three-wavelength modulated multi-directional actuators

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Light-guided robotic soft actuators have attracted intense scientific attention but it remains challenging to modulate the moving directions and shape morphing modes.

Probing the composition of sub-millisecond rotating compact stars by r-modes instability

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the implications of the r-modes instability on the composition of a compact star rotating at a sub-millisecond period. In particular, the only viable astrophysical scenario for such an object, wich might present inside the Low Mass X-ray ...

Spin waves in the soft layer of exchange-coupled soft/hard bilayers

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2016
The magnetic dynamical properties of the soft layer in exchange-coupled soft/hard bilayers have been investigated numerically using a one-dimensional atomic chain model.

Soft robotic fingers with embedded ionogel sensors and discrete actuation modes for somatosensitive manipulation

open access: yes, 2019
Soft robotic grippers enable gentle, adaptive, and bioinspired manipulation that is simply not possible using traditional rigid robots. However, it has remained challenging to create multi-degree-of-freedom soft actuators with appropriate sensory ...

"Modes of governance in the EU" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
...it is the aim of this chapter to, first, clarify the concept of governance, second, highlight basic modes of governance and their role in the EU and, third, develop an explanatory framework for the emergence of specific modes of governance in the ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
