Electronic structure and chemical bonding of nc-TiC/a-C nanocomposites [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. B 80, 235108 (2009), 2011
The electronic structure of nanocrystalline (nc-) TiC/amorphous C nanocomposites has been investigated by soft x-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy. The measured spectra at the Ti 2p and C 1s thresholds of the nanocomposites are compared to those of Ti metal and amorphous C.

Trichotillomania is more related to Tourette disorder than to obsessive-compulsive disorder

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Psychiatry
Objective: Trichotillomania (TTM) is characterized by the pulling out of one’s hair. TTM was classified as an impulse control disorder in DSM-IV, but is now classified in the obsessive-compulsive related disorders section of DSM-5. Classification for TTM

Prevalence and Clinical Correlates of Self-Harm Behaviors in Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2019
Introduction: Major symptoms of Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) are tics, but in 90% of cases, psychiatric comorbidities occur. Self-harm behaviors (SHBs) could result from deliberate action and unintentional injury from tics.Methods: We examined ...

Engineering a Spin‐Orbit Bandgap in Graphene‐Tellurium Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tellurium intercalation in epitaxial graphene on Ir(111) enables the emergence of a spin–orbit‐induced bandgap with energy spin splitting. By combining STM, ARPES, spin‐resolved ARPES, and DFT, two structural phases are identified, both exhibiting tunable electronic doping.

Combining X‐Ray Photoelectron and Absorption Spectroscopies for Determining Surface Chemistry and Composition of Ti3C2Tx MXene

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The surface chemistry and core composition of Ti3C2Tx MXenes is often derived from X‐ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) but its determination and quantification remain difficult due to adsorbed species such as adventitious carbon. This challenge is overcome by using energy‐dependent XPS and depth profile modeling of the Ti3C2Tx MXene surface ...
