Key cellular functions depend on the transduction of extracellular mechanical signals by specialized membrane receptors, including adhesion G-protein coupled receptors (aGPCRs). While recent structural studies support aGPCR activation through shedding of t ...

The present study focused on the development and characterization of four new low-cost hole-transporting materials (HTMs), ZZ01, DJ01, PR01, and PM01, designed based on the concepts of donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) or acceptor-acceptor-donor (A-A-D) for app ...

The capability to excite, probe, and manipulate vibrational modes is essential for understanding and controlling chemical reactions at the molecular level. Recent advancements in tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopies have enabled the probing of vibrational fin ...

Electrochemical reduction of CO2 (CO2RR) is an attractive technology to reintegrate the anthropogenic CO2 back into the carbon cycle driven by a suitable catalyst. This study employs highly efficient multi-carbon (C2+) producing Cu2O nanocubes (NCs) decora ...

We investigate the migration properties of hole polarons in rutile and anatase TiO2 using Hubbard U semilocal and hybrid functionals with parameters set to enforce the piecewise linearity condition. The polarons in anatase and in rutile are found to be sta ...

Rare-earth nickelates (chemical formula RNiO3, R being a rare-earth cation) display a temperature-dependent metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) together with a breathing distortion of the NiO6 octahedra units at a temperature ranging from 0 to 600 K depend ...

First-principles calculations of phonons are often based on the adiabatic approximation and on Brillouinzone samplings that might not always be sufficient to capture the subtleties of Kohn anomalies. These shortcomings can be addressed through corrections ...

Accurate first-principles predictions of the structural, electronic, magnetic, and electrochemical properties of cathode materials can be key in the design of novel efficient Li-ion batteries. Spinel-type cathode materials LixMn2O4 and LixMn1.5Ni0.5O4 are ...

Ni- and Co-based catalysts with added Fe demonstrate promising activity in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) during alkaline water electrolysis, with the presence of Fe in a certain quantity being crucial for their enhanced performance. The mode of incor ...

The ferroelectric semiconductor alpha-SnTe has been regarded as a topological crystalline insulator, and the dispersion of its surface states has been intensively measured with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) over the past decade. However ...

The lack of long-term stability and reproducibility of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is the main roadblock preventing their successful commercialization. 3D/2D PSCs are one of the most prominent ways to address these issues. Various salts that are mostly b ...

The introduction of an electron-donating triphenylamine motive into a 2,2',6',2''-terpyridine (terpy) moiety, a cornerstone molecular unit in coordination chemistry, opens new ways for a rational design of photophysical properties of organic and inorganic ...

Light matter interactions such as extinction, reflection, and transmission can be described by classical optics. Dur-ing the past decades, research focused on a novel resonant extinction type called plasmonics that allows for en-hancement of both types of ...

The science and engineering of two-dimensional materials (2DMs), in particular, of 2D semiconductors, is advancing at a thriving pace. It is well known that these delicate few-atoms thick materials can be damaged during the processing toward their integrat ...

We present an interface of the wavefunction-based quantum chemical software CFOUR to the multiscale modeling framework MiMiC. Electrostatic embedding of the quantum mechanical (QM) part is achieved by analytic evaluation of one-electron integrals in CFOUR, ...

Dion-Jacobson (DJ) iodoplumbates based on 1,4-phenylenedimethanammonium (PDMA) have recently emerged as promising light absorbers for perovskite solar cells. While PDMA is one of the simplest aromatic spacers potentially capable of forming a DJ structure b ...
