Easy orientation of diblock copolymers on self-assembled monolayers using UV irradiation

open access: yes, 2009
A simple method based on UV/ozone treatment is proposed to control the surface energy of dense grafted silane layers for orientating block copolymer mesophases. Our method allows one to tune the surface energy down to a fraction of a mN/m.

Vacuum Energy and Casimir Force in a Presence of Skin-depth Dependent Boundary Condition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The vacuum energy-momentum tensor (EMT) and the vacuum energy corresponding to massive scalar field on $\Re_{t}\times [0,l] \times \Re^{D-2}$ space-time with boundary condition involving a dimensional parameter ($\delta$) are found.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Polar plots of diamond surface energy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Diamond surface energy sigma_hkl determines crystal habit. We discuss three aspects of a paper by Terentiev (1991). Firstly, we compare Terentiev's algorithm for exact sigma_hkl with the analytic solution for h

On the energy-momentum tensor for a scalar field on manifolds with boundaries

open access: yes, 2003
We argue that already at classical level the energy-momentum tensor for a scalar field on manifolds with boundaries in addition to the bulk part contains a contribution located on the boundary. Using the standard variational procedure for the action with

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

The origin of Sr segregation at La1-xSrxMnO3 surfaces

open access: yes, 2011
A uniform distribution of La and Sr in lanthanum-strontium manganites would lead to charged crystal planes, a charged surface, and arbitrarily large surface energy for a bulk crystal.

Capillarity of soft amorphous solids: a microscopic model for surface stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The elastic deformation of a soft solid induced by capillary forces crucially relies on the excess stress inside the solid-liquid interface. While for a liquid-liquid interface this "surface stress" is strictly identical to the "surface free energy", the
