The molecular basis of mesophase ordering in a thiophene-based copolymer

Author(s)
Dean M. DeLongchamp, Regis J. Kline, Youngsuk Jung, Eric K. Lin, Daniel A. Fischer, David J. Gundlach, Andrew Moad, Lee J. Richter, Michael F. Toney, Martin Heeney, Iain McCulloch
The carrier mobility of poly(2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl) thieno[3,2-b]thiophene) semiconductors can be substantially enhanced after heating through a...

Tunable Delay of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Entanglement

Author(s)
Alberto M. Marino, Raphael C. Pooser, Vincent Boyer, Paul D. Lett
Entanglement is an important quantum resource which displays correlations between two subsystems that are stronger than the ones that can be obtained...

Reliability in Grid Computing System

Author(s)
Christopher E. Dabrowski
In recent years, grid technology has emerged as an important tool for solving compute-intensive problems within the scientific community and in industry. To...
