For more than a century, the well-known 18-electron rule has guided the field of organometallic chemistry. Now, researchers at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), in collaboration with ...

This paper proposes a dual-band dual-circularly polarized (CP) aperture-coupled patch antenna with controlled frequency ratio. By simply etching a modified S-shaped slot at the central of a circular ...

This paper explores the thermal characteristics of a microstrip meander-line slow wave structure (SWS) with thermal pyrolytic graphite (TPG) layer operating at W-band (90-100GHz). The simulation ...

Researchers reveal how hydration shapes peptide assembly on 2D materials, offering new insights for bioelectronics and ...

Kanazawa University, report in Small, on how short peptides self-assemble linearly on atomically-thick solid surfaces, such ...

The two-component crystals formed from pyridine or 4-dimethylaminopyridine with maleic, fumaric, phthalic, isophthalic, or terephthalic acids were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The two-component ...

The researchers designed short and simple dipeptides, mainly consisting of alternating amino acids with aromatic side groups, tyrosine (Y) and histidine (H) (Fig. 2). The former is hydrophobic residue ...

Graphite isn’t just used for pencils — it's also a key lithium-ion battery component due to its high conductivity and quick-charging capacity. This means the graphite sector could experience tailwinds ...

Two types of hexaglycylamide (HGA) epitaxial lamellar structures coexisting on the surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) exposed to water solutions were studied by high-resolution ...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A fire broke out in a parking garage of Nashville’s main public library early Tuesday, sending a large plume of smoke into the air downtown and forcing evacuations from a ...
