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.

“…Finally, we classify bilinear forms in the Verlinde category Ver₄⁺ and discuss the associated Witt semi-ring, which is a new algebraic structure. The second perspective is that these categories actually contain the category of supervector spaces, so they must generalize what is already known. …”

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.…”

Resolution of proteotoxic stress in the endoplasmic reticulum by ubiquitin ligase complexes by Lari, F

“…ER-associated degradation (ERAD) oversees protein folding and delivers misfolded proteins for degradation by the proteasome via ubiquitin conjugation mediated by RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligases. An intact ERAD is crucial to cellular homeostasis, as unresolved protein imbalances cause ER stress that ultimately lead to apoptosis. …”
