Thermal Polymorphism in CsCB11H12

March 1, 2023
Author(s)
Radovan Cerny, Matteo Brighi, Hui Wu, Wei Zhou, Mirjana Dimitrievska, Fabrizio Murgia, Valerio Gulino, Petra de Jongh, Benjamin Trump, Terrence J. Udovic
Thermal polymorphism in the alkali-metal salts incorporating the icosohedral monocarba-hydridoborate anion, CB11H12, results in intriguing dynamical properties leading to superionic conductivity for the lightest alkali-metal analogues, LiCB11H12 and

Empirical Validation of Automated Vulnerability Curation and Characterization

February 23, 2023
Author(s)
Ahmet Okutan, Peter Mell, Medhi Mirakhorli, Igor Khokhlov, Joanna Santos, Danielle Gonzalez, Steven Simmons
Prior research has shown that public vulnerability systems such as US National Vulnerability Database (NVD) rely on a manual, time-consuming, and error-prone process which has led to inconsistencies and delays in releasing final vulnerability results. This

Inhibition of human APE1 and MTH1 DNA repair proteins by dextran-coated g-Fe2O3 ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles

February 28, 2023
Author(s)
Erdem Coskun, Pawel Jaruga, Miral M. Dizdar, Bryant C. Nelson, Neenu Singh, Leona Scanlan, Shareen Doak
Aim: To quantitatively evaluate the inhibition of human DNA repair proteins APE1 and MTH1 by dextran-coated γ-Fe2O3 ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (dUSPIONs). Materials & methods: Liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry with

Distinct Contact Scaling Effects in MoS2 Transistors Revealed with Asymmetrical Contact Measurements

February 27, 2023
Author(s)
Zhihui Cheng, Curt A. Richter, Hattan Abuzaid, Jonathan Backman, Mathieu Luisier, Huairuo Zhang, Albert Davydov, Guoqing Li, Yifei Yu, Linyou Cao, Aaron Franklin
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have great potential for use in future electronics due to their atomic thin nature which withstands short channel effects and thus enables better scalability. Since improved scalability is the core advantage, both the channel

Extreme Bottom-up Gold Filling of High Aspect Ratio Features

February 27, 2023
Author(s)
Daniel Josell, Thomas P. Moffat
Where copper interconnects fabricated using superconformal electrodeposition processes have enabled dramatic advances in microelectronics over the last quarter century, gold filled gratings fabricated using superconformal 〖Bi〗^(3+)-mediated bottom-up

Highly-twisted states of light from a high quality factor photonic crystal ring

February 27, 2023
Author(s)
Xiyuan Lu, Mingkang Wang, Feng Zhou, Mikkel Heuck, Wenqi Zhu, Vladimir Aksyuk, Dirk Englund, Kartik Srinivasan
Twisted light with orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been extensively studied for applications in quantum and classical communications, microscopy, and optical micromanipulation. Ejecting the naturally high angular momentum whispering gallery modes (WGMs)

Self-dual quasiperiodic percolation

February 27, 2023
Author(s)
Grace Sommers, Michael Gullans, David Huse
How does the percolation transition behave in the absence of quenched randomness? To address this question, we study a nonrandom self-dual quasiperiodic model of square-lattice bond percolation. Through a numerical study of cluster sizes and wrapping

Reaction-Induced Phase Separation (RIPS) in Amine-Cured Epoxy/Epoxy Thermosets.2. Visualization of Heterogeneity using Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM)

February 25, 2023
Author(s)
Jeremiah Woodcock, Stephan J. Stranick, Anthony Kotula, Gale A. Holmes
The strategic integration of a rhodamine-spirolactam (RS) mechanophore into a transparent bis-epoxide/bis-epoxide/amine and corresponding bis-epoxide/amine networks has revealed, for the first time using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM)

Nb/a-Si/Nb-junction Josephson-based arbitrary waveform synthesizers for quantum information

February 24, 2023
Author(s)
David Olaya, John Biesecker, Manuel Castellanos Beltran, Adam Sirois, Paul Dresselhaus, Samuel P. Benz, Pete Hopkins, Logan Howe
We demonstrate Josephson arbitrary waveform synthesizers (JAWS) with increased operating temperature range for temperatures below 4 K. These JAWS synthesizers were fabricated with externally-shunted Nb/a-Si/Nb junctions whose critical current exhibits

Preparation and Standardization of 229Th SRM 4328d

February 24, 2023
Author(s)
Ronald Colle, Lizbeth Laureano-Perez, Morgan DiGiorgio
The certified massic activity for 229Th in SRM 4328d was obtained by 4παβ liquid scintillation (LS) counting by comparative measurements in 2022 against SRM 4328c. Both SRMs were prepared from the identical 2007 229Th stock solution. SRM 4328c was

Control of Micro-and Nanostructure of Layered Double Hydroxides by Hydrothermal Treatment

February 23, 2023
Author(s)
Keiichiro Maegawa, Fan Zhang, Qiaxian Johnson, Mihaela Jitianu, Tan Wai Kian, Go Kawamura, Atsunori Matsuda, Andrei Jitianu
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are mixed M(II) and M(III) hydroxides with positively charged lamellar brucite layers and interlayered anions. LDHs attracted significant attention due to their anion and cation-exchange ability, adsorption capacity, and

Impact of Code Complexity On Software Analysis

February 23, 2023
Author(s)
Charles D. De Oliveira, Elizabeth Fong, Paul E. Black
The Software Assurance Metrics and Tool Evaluation (SAMATE) team studied thousands of warnings from static analyzers. Tools have difficulty distinguishing between the absence of a weakness and the presence of a weakness that is buried in otherwise

Unified graph neural network force-field for the periodic table: solid state applications

February 23, 2023
Author(s)
Kamal Choudhary, Brian DeCost, Lily Major, Keith Butler, Jeyan Thiyagalingam, Francesca Tavazza
Classical force fields (FFs) based on machine learning (ML) methods show great potential for large scale simulations of solids. MLFFs have hitherto largely been designed and fitted for specific systems and are not usually transferable to chemistries beyond

FixItFelix: improving genomic analysis by fixing reference errors

February 21, 2023
Author(s)
Sairam Behera, Jonathan LeFaive, Peter Orchard, Justin Zook, Fritz Sedlazeck
The current version of the human reference genome, GRCh38, contains a number of errors including 1.2 Mbp of falsely duplicated and 8.04 Mbp of collapsed regions. These errors impact the variant calling of 33 protein-coding genes, including 12 with medical
