Imagining the Heavens: Adam Elsheimer’s Flight into Egypt and the Renaissance Night Sky

open access: yesJournal for the History of Knowledge, 2021
Adam Elsheimer’s The Flight into Egypt (1609) has triggered a longstanding debate among art historians. For the last five decades, Elsheimer’s novel naturalistic representation of the night sky in his painting on copper has been linked to Galileo’s ...

N‐Alkoxysulfurdiimide Reagents for the One‐Step Modular Synthesis of Primary Sulfonimidamides

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
N‐Alkoxysulfurdiimide reagents when combined with organometallic reagents lead directly to primary sulfonimidamide products. The reactions are broad in scope, encompassing aryl, heteroaryl, and alkyl carbon substituents. The reactivity of the N‐alkoxysulfurdiimide reagents can be correlated with the electron‐withdrawing ability of the N‐substituent ...

Versatile Pneumatic Twisted Coiled Actuators Enabled by Fiber‐Polymer Composite Fabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports composite Pneumatic Twisted Coiled Actuators with embedded Kevlar fibers that convert pneumatic or hydraulic pressure into powerful linear motion. A novel precise manufacturing technique is used to systematically explore how design variables influence actuator mechanics and dynamics.

Sustainable Pd‐Catalyzed Aminations “on Dirty Water”

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Aminations, done safely yet neat, and therefore, quickly, using low levels of Pd, in “dirty water” that must contain 30% KOH; not NaOH, and not at 5%,10%, 20%, 40%, or 50% KOH. Moreover, no base sensitivity of functional groups! Very cool. Thank you, Nature.

Grinding metre scale mirror segments for the E-ELT ground based telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The next generation of ground based telescopes require many hundreds of metre scale off-axis mirrors. In this paper the grinding of a 1.45m scale Zerodur® mirror segment for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) is introduced.

Implementation of a laser-truss based telescope metrology system at the Large Binocular Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Large ground-based telescopes are prone to perturbations caused by environmental factors that affect the mechanical structure of the telescope that can cause collimation loss and image quality degradation.

Charge Generation and Recombination Pathways in All‐Polymer Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Multimodal spectroscopy and device analysis reveal how field‐dependent charge generation, transport limitations, and non‐geminate recombination govern performance losses in all polymer solar cells. The results identify the key processes controlling charge extraction and recombination, providing insights for the design of more efficient all‐polymer ...
