Arsenene nanoribbon edge-resolved strong magnetism by Wang, Sanmei, Zhang, Xi, Huang, Yongli, Sun, Chang Qing

“…Consistency between bond-order-length-strength correlation (BOLS) theory and density functional theory (DFT) calculations verified that: (i) the edge bond contraction of 9.54% deepened the edge potential well of AsNR, (ii) a net charge of 0.06 e- transferred from the inner region to the edge; and (iii) the edge quantum well polarized the unpaired electron and the net spin (antiferromagnetic or ferromagnetic depending on the width) is localized at the zigzag edge. …”

Electronic structure of topological quantum materials probed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy by Schröter, N

“…Graphene is predicted to be a quantum spin Hall insulator, but due to the weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of carbon, the predicted bulk energy gap at its Dirac point remains unresolved. …”

Hand-held devices for generating force/torque perturbations by Wong, Yoke Cung.

“…The working principle is to spin the flywheel at a certain angular speed and then break this rotation motion within a very short period so that relatively high deceleration will take place and torque will be generated. …”

Topological phases with parafermions: theory and blueprints by Alicea, J, Fendley, P

“…First we generalize the intimate connection between the -symmetric Ising quantum spin chain and Majorana fermions to -symmetric chains and parafermions. …”

Gender equality, growth, and how a technological trap destroyed female work by Humphries, J, Schneider, B

“…We then explain how a crucial example of technological unemployment for women—the destruction of hand spinning during the British Industrial Revolution—contributed to the emergence of the male breadwinner family. …”

Organic donor-acceptor cocrystals for multiferroic applications by Wang, Zongrui, Zhang, Qichun

“…The cocrystallization strategy has provided an efficient route to fulfill room temperature magnetoelectricity in single phase owing to the long-range ordered π-π stacking (donor-acceptor assembled) network, long-lived excitons (with μs lifetime), spin orders (±1/2 s pin) and charge transfer (CT) dipoles in the assembled crystal lattice. …”

Azadihomocorannulene as a heptagon-embedded diradicaloid by Hamamoto, Yosuke, Wang, Weifan, Li, Yongxin, Ito, Shingo

“…The synthesis was achieved through a mechanochemical C(sp2)-H/C(sp3)-H coupling in the presence of sodium as a key reaction. Electron spin resonance studies revealed that the neutral azapentabenzodihomocorannulene adopts a singlet diradical (diradicaloid) ground state with a small singlet-triplet energy gap of 2.1 kcal/mol. …”

Magnetic levitation using neodymium magnets for vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) II by Lai, Chunji

“…This project involved the design and fabrication of a test model vertical axis wind turbine, however as this experiment was carried out indoor without any wind condition, the author used a dc motor to simulate the wind required to spin the turbine. The advantage of this motor allows the author some control over the speed of the turbine. …”
