Electron-phonon driven unconventional superconductivity: The role of small Fermi energies and of nonadiabatic processes

Claudio Grimaldi

The very concept of high-T-c superconductivity has originated from the discovery of superconductivity in copper oxides by Bednorz and Muller in 1986. Soon after their discovery, cuprates were recognized as undoubtedly complex and radically unconventional s ...

Atomistic simulation and electron microscopy to characterize grain boundaries in doped beta-tricalcium phosphate ceramics

Gabrielle Anne Laguisma Sblendorio

The limitations and potential complications correlated with autogenous bone grafts have raised interest in the development of synthetic bone graft substitutes. ß-tricalcium phosphate (ß-TCP) is one of the most promising materials for synthetic bone graft s ...

In situ nanoscale studies of copper-based catalysts for carbon dioxide electroreduction

Karla Banjac

The urgency of climate change demands the simultaneous removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and the transition to renewable energy sources. This aim is realizable through electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2RR), which is a promising ro ...

Superexchange mechanism and quantum many body excitations in the archetypal di-Cu oxo-bridge

Cédric Weber, Edward Baxter Linscott

The hemocyanin protein binds and transports molecular oxygen via two copper atoms at its core. The singlet state of the Cu2O2 core is thought to be stabilised by a superexchange pathway, but detailed in situ computational analysis is complicated by the mul ...

Dynamics of correlation-frozen antinodal quasiparticles in superconducting cuprates

Alberto Crepaldi

Many puzzling properties of high-critical temperature (T-c) superconducting (HTSC) copper oxides have deep roots in the nature of the antinodal quasiparticles, the elementary excitations with wave vector parallel to the Cu-O bonds. These electronic states ...

Influence of the thickness of a nanometric copper interlayer on Au/dielectric thermal boundary conductance

Ludger Weber, Maïté Blank

The influence of the thickness of a thin (1.5-30 nm) copper layer on the thermal boundary conductance (TBC) at the interface between gold and silicon, sapphire and diamond, respectively, was studied using Time Domain Thermoreflectance. Overall, a monotonic ...

Supported photocatalysts for model pollutant degradation and bacterial inactivation : preparation, evaluation and characterization

Laura Victoria Suárez Murillo

Water quality and bacterial infections are directly related to human health and wellbeing, thus waste water treatment is a necessary procedure for avoiding disturbances to ecosystems and for assuring human health. Furthermore, bacterial contamination in wa ...

Intrachain antiferromagnetic exchange in a 1D branched-chain built of two different copper(II) centres interlinked by end-on azido and phenoxo bridges: electron density map, electrochemical and magnetic properties

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Kurt Schenk, Philip Pattison, Krunoslav Prsa, Noore Elahi Shaik, Arash Alahgholipour Omrani

A 1D, end-on azido- and phenoxo-bridged, coordination polymer, Cu-2(mu-NAPPR)(mu(1,1)-N-3)(2) (1), (NAPPR(2-) = 1,3-bis(naphthylideneimino) propane dianion), was synthesized and characterized. The 1D branched-chain is built of two types of slightly di ...

Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy of Tetragonal CuO: Evidence for Intralayer Coupling Between Cupratelike Sublattices

Frédéric Mila, Marco Grioni, Luca Moreschini, Simon Karl Moser, Davide Innocenti, Hongyu Yang

We investigate by angle-resolved photoemission the electronic structure of in situ grown tetragonal CuO, a synthetic quasi-two-dimensional edge-sharing cuprate. We show that, in spite of the very different nature of the copper oxide layers, with twice as m ...

Chlorination of bromide-containing waters: Enhanced bromate formation in the presence of synthetic metal oxides and deposits formed in drinking water distribution systems

Urs von Gunten, Chao Liu

Bromate formation from the reaction between chlorine and bromide in homogeneous solution is a slow process. The present study investigated metal oxides enhanced bromate formation during chlorination of bromide-containing waters. Selected metal oxides enhan ...

Theory of superconductivity in a three-orbital model of Sr2RuO4

Ronny Thomale

In conventional and high transition temperature copper oxide and iron pnictide superconductors, the Cooper pairs all have even parity. As a rare exception, Sr2RuO4 is the first prime candidate for topological chiral p-wave superconductivity, which has time ...

Synthesis and Characterization of High-Photoactivity Electrodeposited Cu2O solar absorber by photoelectrochemistry and ultrafast spectroscopy

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Jan Cornelius Brauer, Adriana Paracchino

We present a systematic study on the effects of electrodeposition parameters on the photoelectrochemical properties of Cu2O. The influence of deposition variables (temperature, pH, and deposition current density) on conductivity has been widely explored in ...

Superconductor–insulator transition in La2 − xSrxCuO4 at the pair quantum resistance

Davor Pavuna, Guy Joseph Günter Dubuis

High-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides arises when a parent insulator compound is doped beyond some critical concentration; what exactly happens at this superconductor–insulator transition is a key open question1. The cleanest approach is to t ...

Antimicrobial Cu-functionalized surfaces prepared by bipolar asymmetric DC-pulsed magnetron sputtering (DCP)

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Rosendo Sanjines, Cristina del Socorro Lonfat

Cu-cotton fabrics were functionalized by bipolar asymmetric DC-pulse magnetron sputtering (DCP). The DCP of Cu-particles on cotton proceeds at a higher energy than DC-magnetron sputtering (DC). The different sputtering mode showed effects on the structure ...

Two energy scales in the spin excitations of the high-temperature superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

The excitations responsible for producing high-temperature superconductivity in the copper oxides have yet to be identified. Two promising candidates are collective spin excitations and phonons(1). A recent argument against spin excitations is based on the ...
