The effect of bonding structure of diamond like carbon (DLC) film with surface nickel coating upon laser annealing by Xu, Naiyun, Tsang, Siu Hon, Tan, Chong Wei, Teo, Hang Tong, Wang, Xincai, Tay, Beng Kang

“…The Raman spectra shows more pronounced change for a-C films with Ni coating than those without Ni coating upon laser annealing, and the Raman features also suggest that the Ni surface coating can enhance formation of the six-ring graphitic-like sp2 ordering. Electrical measurement shows a low resistive characteristic for both set of films due to laser induced conducting sp2 clusters formation.…”

Transient dynamics of a one-dimensional Holstein polaron under the influence of an external electric field by Huang, Zhongkai, Chen, Lipeng, Zhou, Nengji, Zhao, Yang

“…In particular, at variance with the case of an infinite linear chain, no steady state is found in a finite-sized ring within the anti-adiabatic regime. For strong diagonal coupling, the multi-math formula Anstaz is found to be highly accurate, and the phonon confinement gives rise to exciton localization and decay of the Bloch oscillations.…”

C–H activation and nucleophilic substitution in a photochemically generated high valent iron complex by Lim, Jia Hui, Engelmann, Xenia, Corby, Sacha, Ganguly, Rakesh, Ray, Kallol, Soo, Han Sen

“…The presence of labile Cl− or Br− results in a ligand-based oxidation and stabilisation of a radical-cationic (TAML˙+)FeIII complex, which subsequently leads to unprecedented C–H activation followed by nucleophilic substitution on the TAML aryl ring. In contrast, exogenous cyanide culminates in metal-based oxidation, yielding the first example of a crystallographically characterised S = 1 [(TAML)FeIV(CN)2]2− species. …”

On Lie Theory in the Verlinde Category by Kannan, Arun S.

Electrodeposition of metal nanostructures for plasmonic sensing by Mueller, Aaron David

“…As this process can produce tall nanostructures, plasmonic modal evolution with height is investigated, along with effects on refractive index sensitivity. Tall v¬-shaped split ring resonator structures were found to have a sensitivity of close to 400 nm/RIU in the optical spectrum, much higher than the theoretical maximum predicted for simple localized resonance.…”
