Effect of the structural features of biobased linear polyester plasticizers on the crystallization of polylactides
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
This work presents, for the first time, a detailed report on how the nucleation and crystallization of polylactide (PLLA) are affected by biobased aliphatic polyesters plasticizers. Three biobased polyesters were synthesized ...
A perspective on ab initio modeling of polaritonic chemistry: The role of non-equilibrium effects and quantum collectivity
(AIP Publishing, 2022-06-21)
This Perspective provides a brief introduction into the theoretical complexity of polaritonic chemistry, which emerges from the hybrid nature of strongly coupled light-matter states. To tackle this complexity, the importance ...
Phonoritons as hybridized exciton-photon-phonon excitations in a monolayer h-BN optical cavity
(American Physical Society, 2022-06-04)
[EN] A phonoriton is an elementary excitation that is predicted to emerge from hybridization between exciton,
phonon, and photon. Besides the intriguing many-particle structure, phonoritons are of interest as they
could ...
Continuous Cooling Curve Diagrams of Isotactic-Polypropylene/Polyethylene Blends: Mutual Nucleating Effects under Fast Cooling Conditions
(American Chemical Society, 2021-05-25)
Crystallization kinetics under processing-relevant cooling conditions of polyethylene/isotactic-polypropylene (PE/PP) blends, with compositions similar to real recycled blends, was investigated through an in situ temperature ...
Survival of Floquet-Bloch States in the Presence of Scattering
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-23)
Floquet theory has spawned many exciting possibilities for electronic structure control with light, with enormous potential for future applications. The experimental demonstration in solids, however, remains largely ...
Coexistence of Superconductivity and Spin-Splitting Fields in Superconductor/Ferromagnetic Insulator Bilayers of Arbitrary Thickness
(American Physical Society, 2021-05-19)
Ferromagnetic insulators (FI) can induce a strong exchange field in an adjacent superconductor (S) via the magnetic proximity effect. This manifests as spin splitting of the BCS density of states of the superconductor, an ...
Evidence for a Spin Acoustic Surface Plasmon from Inelastic Atom Scattering
(Nature, 2021-01-15)
Closed-shell atoms scattered from a metal surface exchange energy and momentum with surface phonons mostly via the interposed surface valence electrons, i.e., via the creation of virtual electron-hole pairs. The latter can ...
Imaging moiré deformation and dynamics in twisted bilayer graphene
(Nature Research, 2022-01)
[EN] In 'magic angle' twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) a flat band forms, yielding correlated insulator behavior and superconductivity. In general, the moire structure in TBG varies spatially, influencing the overall conductance ...
Crystallization of a Self-Assembling Nucleator in Poly(L-lactide) Melt
(American Chemical Society, 2021-09-01)
[EN]In the present work, crystallization of a soluble nucleator N, N′, N″-tricyclohexyl-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylamide (TMC-328) in a poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) matrix has been studied at different temperatures. Based on ...
Realization of nearly dispersionless bands with strong orbital anisotropy from destructive interference in twisted bilayer MoS2
(Nature Research, 2021-09)
[EN]Recently, the twist angle between adjacent sheets of stacked van der Waals materials emerged as a new knob to engineer correlated states of matter in two-dimensional heterostructures in a controlled manner, giving rise ...
