Thymosin β4 Is an Endogenous Iron Chelator and Molecular Switcher of Ferroptosis
(MDPI, 2022-01-04)
Thymosin β4 (Tβ4) was extracted forty years agofrom calf thymus. Since then, it has been identified as a G-actin binding protein involved in blood clotting, tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and anti-inflammatory processes. ...
Rheology and Tack Properties of Biodegradable Isodimorphic Poly(butylene succinate)-Ran-Poly(ε-caprolactone) Random Copolyesters and Their Potential Use as Adhesives
(MDPI, 2022-02-06)
The sole effect of the microstructure of biodegradable isodimorphic poly(butylene succinate)-ran-poly(ε-caprolactone) random copolyesters on their rheological properties is investigated. To avoid the effect of molecular ...
Native point defects and their implications for the Dirac point gap at MnBi2Te4(0001)
(Nature Research, 2022)
[EN] We study the surface crystalline and electronic structures of the antiferromagnetic topological insulator MnBi2Te4 using scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S), micro(mu)-laser angle-resolved photoemission ...
Excited-state band structure mapping
(American Physical Society, 2022-02-15)
[EN] Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy is an extremely powerful probe of materials to access the occupied electronic structure with energy and momentum resolution. However, it remains blind to those dynamic states ...
Surface Roughness Enhances Self-Nucleation of High-Density Polyethylene Droplets Dispersed within Immiscible Blends
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
[EN] Highly linear or high-density polyethylenes (HDPEs) have an intrinsically high nucleation density compared to other polyolefins. Enhancing their nucleation density by self-nucleation is therefore difficult, leading ...
Nanometer-Scale Lateral p–n Junctions in Graphene/α-RuCl3 Heterostructures
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
[EN] The ability to create nanometer-scale lateral p-n junctions is essential for the next generation of two-dimensional (2D) devices. Using the charge-transfer heterostructure graphene/alpha-RuCl3, we realize nanoscale ...
Probing phonon dynamics with multidimensional high harmonic carrier-envelope-phase spectroscopy
(National Academy of Sciences, 2022-06)
We explore pump-probe high harmonic generation (HHG) from monolayer hexagonalboron-nitride, where a terahertz pump excites coherent optical phonons that are subsequently probed by an intense infrared pulse that drives HHG. ...
Photoactive Platinum(II) Azopyridine Complexes
(Wiley, 2022-01)
Platinum(II) complexes containing the strong pi-acceptor N,N-chelating ligand phenylazopyridine (Ph-azpy) [Pt(p-R-Ph-azpy)X2 ], R = H, NMe2 or OH, X = Cl or N3 , have been synthesized and characterized to explore the effects ...
Comment on "Anomalous structural recovery in the near glass transition range in a polymer glass: Data revisited in light of temperature variability in vacuum oven-based experiments"
(Wiley, 2022-08)
Recent efforts, fostered by a pioneering work by us, have shown the of multiple steps in the recovery of equilibrium of glasses. Jin and McKenna raise concerns regarding the validity of such scenario alleging that the ...
Effect of the TrFE Content on the Crystallization and SSA Thermal Fractionation of P(VDF-co-TrFE) Copolymers
(MDPI, 2022-09-08)
In this contribution, we study the effect of trifluoro ethylene (TrFE) comonomer content (samples with 80/20, 75/25, and 70/30 VDF/TrFE molar ratios were used) on the crystallization in P(VDF-co-TrFE) in comparison with a ...
