Intrinsic room-temperature ferromagnetism in a two-dimensional semiconducting metal-organic framework

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The development of two-dimensional (2D) magnetic semiconductors with room-temperature ferromagnetism is a significant challenge in materials science and is important for the development of next-generation spintronic devices. Herein, we demonstrate that a

1.8 V Aqueous Symmetric Carbon-Based Supercapacitors with Agarose-Bound Activated Carbons in an Acidic Electrolyte

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
The specific energy of an aqueous carbon supercapacitor is generally small, resulting mainly from a narrow potential window of aqueous electrolytes.

Stability of iron-bearing carbonates in the deep Earth’s interior

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Carbonates are shown to exist in the lower mantle as seen in diamond inclusions, but thermodynamic constraints are poorly understood. Here, the authors synthesise two new iron carbonate compounds and find that self-oxidation-reduction reactions can ...

Capacity Deterioration Analysis of Li-ion Battery Cathode Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 Material by Soft X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy

open access: yesElectrochemistry, 2021
We report detailed studies of capacity deterioration mechanism of Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 (NCM) cathode after several numbers of cycling with the voltage range of 3.0–4.1 V/cell at 85 °C and after storage at charged states (3.7, 4.0 and 4.1 V/cell) at 70 ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Imaging atelectrauma in Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury using 4D X-ray microscopy

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Mechanical ventilation can damage the lungs, a condition called Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury (VILI). However, the mechanisms leading to VILI at the microscopic scale remain poorly understood.

Evaluation of the Potential of Laser Shock Peening Compared with Cold Expansion for Improving Fatigue Resistance of Riveted Lap Joints of Aerospace Grade 7175 Al Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates laser shock peening for enhancing fatigue performance of riveted aerospace aluminum joints. A comparative approach with cold expansion combines fatigue testing and synchrotron X‐ray methods. Integrating mechanical testing with residual stress and strain characterization provides insights into how different treatments affect the ...
