Boosting energy efficiency and selectivity of glucose oxidation toward glucuronic acid in high-frequency ultrasound using multicavity CuO catalytic cavitation agents by Xie, Z, Mahendran, V, Jonnalagadda, US, Fan, Q, Su, X, Fischer, AF, Tan, M, Tao, L, Jérôme, F, Kwan, JJ, Valange, S, Choksi, TS, Amaniampong, PN, Liu, W

“…First, the generation of OH radicals and possibly other reactive oxygen species in the bulk aqueous phase resulted in the formation of gluconic acid, together with other byproducts of C-C bond cleavage and ring opening. Second, the generation of OH radicals in close proximity to CuO resulted in the formation of glucuronic acid with the six membered ring preserved. …”

Active control of resonant cloaking in a terahertz MEMS metamaterial by Manjappa, Manukumara, Pitchappa, Prakash, Wang, Nan, Lee, Chengkuo, Singh, Ranjan

“…In this work, a new mechanism for invisibility cloaking based on the resonant scattering cancellation technique in a 2D nonconcentric composite metamaterial device, consisting of a split ring resonator (SRR) and a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) reconfigurable closed ring resonator (CRR) at THz frequencies is reported. …”

Emergent vortices at a ferromagnetic superconducting oxide interface by Petrović, A P, Paré, A, Paudel, T R, Lee, K, Holmes, S, Barnes, C H W, David, A, Wu, T, Tsymbal, E Y, Panagopoulos, C

“…This hysteresis is argued to arise from vortex depinning within a thin (< 20 nm) superconducting layer, mediated by discrete ferromagnetic dipoles located solely above the layer. The pinning strength may be modified by varying the superconducting channel thickness via electric field-effect doping. …”

First cycle voltage hysteresis in Li-rich 3d cathodes associated with molecular O2 trapped in the bulk by House, RA, Rees, G, Perez-Osorio, M, Marie, J-J, Boivin, E, Robertson, A, Nag, A, Garcia-Fernandez, M, Zhou, K-J, Bruce, P

“…Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering and 17O magic angle spinning NMR spectroscopy show that molecular O2, rather than O22−, forms within the particles on the oxidation of O2− at 4.6 V versus Li+/Li on charge. …”

Thickness effect of nickel oxide thin films on associated solution-processed write-once-read-many-times memory devices by Wang, Xiao Lin, Liu, Zhen, Wen, Chao, Liu, Yang, Wang, Hong Zhe, Chen, Tu Pei, Zhang, Hai Yan

“…With self-prepared nickel acetate based solution, NiO thin films with different thicknesses have been fabricated by spin coating followed by thermal annealing. By forming a two-terminal Ag/NiO/ITO structure on glass, write-once-read-many-times (WORM) memory devices are realized. …”

Efficient generation of an array of single silicon-vacancy defects in silicon carbide by Wang, Junfeng, Zhou, Yu, Zhang, Xiaoming, Liu, Fucai, Li, Yan, Li, Ke, Liu, Zheng, Wang, Guanzhong, Gao, Weibo

“…Color centers in silicon carbide have increasingly attracted attention in recent years owing to their excellent properties such as single-photon emission, good photostability, and long spin-coherence time even at room temperature. As compared to diamond, which is widely used for hosting nitrogen-vacancy centers, silicon carbide has an advantage in terms of large-scale, high-quality, and low-cost growth, as well as an advanced fabrication technique in optoelectronics, leading to prospects for large-scale quantum engineering. …”
