We reported a microporous MOF FJU-101 with open naphthalene diimide functional groups for room temperature (RT) high methane storage. At RT and 65 bar, the total volumetric CH 4 storage capacity of 212 cm -3 in FJU-101a is significantly higher than the

Effect of Elevated Temperature and Humidity on Fibers Based on 5-amino-2-(p-aminophenyl) benzimidazole (PBIA)

Traditionally, soft body armor has been made from materials such as poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) and ultra-high molar mass polyethylene (UHMMPE). However, to diversify the fiber choices in the United States body armor market, copolymer fibers

Twist Angle-Dependent Atomic Reconstruction and Moire Patterns in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Heterostructures

Van der Waals layered materials, such as the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), are an exciting class of materials with weak interlayer bonding which enables one to create so-called van der Waals heterostructures (vdWH). One promising attribute of

Field Ion Emission in an Atom Probe Microscope Triggered by Femtosecond-Pulsed Coherent Extreme Ultraviolet Light

This paper reports construction of an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation-triggered atom probe tomograph and describes the results from initial experiments on amorphous SiO2. Femtosecond-pulsed coherent EUV radiation of 29.6 nm wavelength (41.85 eV photon

Nanoscale Pattern Decay Monitored via in-situ Heated Atomic Force Microscopy

March 12, 2020

Sonal Bhadauriya, Jianan Zhang, Jaejun Lee, Michael R. Bockstaller, Alamgir Karim, Richard J. Sheridan, Christopher Stafford
We combine in-situ heated atomic force microscopy (AFM) with automated line-by-line spectral analysis to quantify the relaxation or decay of nanopatterned polymer films at temperatures above the glass transition. This approach enables assessment of pattern

Large Enhancement of Magnetocaloric and Barocaloric Effects by Hydrostatic Pressure in La(Fe 0.92 Co 0.08 ) 11.9 Si 1.1 with a NaZn 13 -Type Structure

Solid state refrigeration based on caloric effect has been regarded as an attractive alternative to conventional gas compression technique. Boosting the caloric effect of a system to its optimum is a long-term pursuit. Here, we report enhanced

Hydrodynamic Factors Influencing Mineral Dissolution Rates

March 9, 2020
Author(s)
Nicos Martys, Jeffrey W. Bullard, Pan Feng, Shaoxiong Ye
Solution flow profiles near a mineral surface can have significant influences on the local thermodynamic driving force and, potentially, the rate-controlling kinetic mechanism of its dissolution or precipitation. These influences are investigated here both

Strain-Induced Majority Carrier Inversion in Ferromagnetic Epitaxial LaCoO^d3-d Thin Films

Tensile-strained LaCoO 3-δ thin films are ferromagnetic, in sharp contrast to the zero-spin bulk, although no clear consensus has emerged as to the origin of this phenomenon. While magnetism has been heavily studied, relatively little attention has been

Cone-Spiral Magnetic Ordering Dominated Lattice Distortion and Giant Negative Thermal Expansion in Fe-Doped MnNiGe Compounds

Hayden A Evans, Yue Wu, Ram Seshadri, Anthony K. Cheetham
ReO 3-type structures can be described as ABX 3 perovskites in which the A-cation site is unoccupied. They therefore have the general composition BX 3, where B is normally a cation and X is a bridging anion. The chemical diversity of such structures is
