'Like-With-Like’: A Comparison of Natural and Synthetic Stitching Threads used in Textile Conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper reports research undertaken to investigate\ud thread types used in textile conservation\ud by quantitatively evaluating tensile strength and\ud damage to conserved samples. A literature review\ud and questionnaire sent to textile conservators\ud were used to establish the most commonly used\ud threads for laid-thread couching treatments and ...

Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the first epitaxial integration of electro‐optic KNbO3 thin films on silicon using suboxide molecular‐beam epitaxy. Combining adsorption‐controlled molecular‐beam epitaxy, advanced characterization, and phase‐field modeling, we demonstrate phase‐pure crystalline films mirroring bulk crystals with robust Pockels response, enabling future ...

Controlled Growth of Boron Nitride in Various Phases

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Phase‐selective boron nitride growth is presented as a unified materials‐design problem across hexagonal, rhombohedral, cubic, and amorphous phases. By linking synthesis routes to thermodynamic stability, kinetic accessibility, surface diffusion, interfacial templating, and energetic activation, this review clarifies how bonding and stacking are ...

Smart Electrospun Nanofibers for Controlled Oil‐Water Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Stimuli‐responsive electrospun nanofibers are reviewed as advanced platforms for controlled oil/water separation. The effects of surface wettability, porous structure, and external stimuli, including pH, temperature, gas, and light, on separation performance are discussed.

Spectral Characteristics of Nitrogen-Doped CVD Synthetic Diamonds and the Origin of Surface Blue Fluorescence

open access: yesCrystals
In recent years, many studies have been published on CVD diamond growth, but the reason for the irregular blue surface fluorescence of CVD diamond under ultra-deep UV radiation (i.e., under DiamondView) is still unclear.
