Experimental observation of topological transition in linear and nonlinear parametric oscillators

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Benjamin Apffel

Parametric oscillators are examples of externally driven systems that can exhibit two stable states with opposite phase depending on the initial conditions. In this work, we propose to study what happens when the external forcing is perturbed by a continuo ...

From defect to effect: controlling electronic transport in chevron graphene nanoribbons

Oleg Yazyev, Kristians Cernevics

While bottom-up synthesis allows for precise control over the properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), the use of certain precursor molecules can result in edge defects, such as missing benzene rings that resemble a 'bite'. We investigate the adverse eff ...

Hemodynamic effects of a dielectric elastomer augmented aorta on aortic wave intensity: An in-vivo study

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Armando Matthieu Walter, Francesco Clavica, Silje Ekroll Jahren

Dielectric elastomer actuator augmented aorta (DEA) represents a novel approach with high potential for assisting a failing heart. The soft tubular device replaces a section of the aorta and increases its diameter when activated. The hemodynamic interactio ...

Finding information-rich electrocardiographic biomarkers to characterize atrial fibrillation

Anna Mary Mc Cann

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia; it will affect one in four adults worldwide in their lifetime. AF has serious consequences, including drastically increased risk of stroke. Catheter ablation surgery is an established treatmen ...

Nanoscale Growth Initiation as a Pathway to Improve the Earth-Abundant Absorber Zinc Phosphide

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Jean-Baptiste Leran, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall, Mahdi Zamani, Rajrupa Paul, Mirjana Dimitrievska, Elias Zsolt Stutz

Growth approaches that limit the interface area between layers to nanoscale regions are emerging as a promising pathway to limit the interface defect formation due to mismatching lattice parameters or thermal expansion coefficient. Interfacial defect mitig ...

PUS3-related disorder: Report of a novel patient and delineation of the phenotypic spectrum

Alessandro Borghesi

PUS3 encodes the pseudouridylate synthase 3, an enzyme catalyzing the formation of tRNA pseudouridine, which plays a critical role in tRNA structure, function, and stability. Biallelic pathogenic variants of PUS3 have been previously associated with severe ...

Defect engineered nanostructured LaFeO3 photoanodes for improved activity in solar water oxidation

Kevin Sivula, Liang Yao, Mounir Driss Mensi, Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Yongpeng Liu, Xavier Pereira Da Costa

LaFeO3 (LFO) is recognized as a candidate material for solar water oxidation, but its photoelectrochemical response remains modest and stagnant. With the aim of advancing LFO photoanodes for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), here, a nanorod array-type e ...

Effects of quantum-well indium content on deep defects and reliability of InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes with under layer

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Camille Haller

We investigate the density of defects and the degradation rate in InGaN light-emitting diodes having identical dislocation density and epitaxial structure, but different indium content in the quantum well (QW; 12%, 16%, 20%). Our results, based on combined ...

Edge Disorder in Bottom-Up Zigzag Graphene Nanoribbons: Implications for Magnetism and Quantum Electronic Transport

Oleg Yazyev, Michele Pizzochero, Kristians Cernevics

We unveil the nature of the structural disorder in bottom-up zigzag graphene nanoribbons along with its effect on the magnetism and electronic transport on the basis of scanning probe microscopies and first-principles calculations. We find that edge-missin ...

Catalyzing Bond-Dissociation in Graphene via Alkali-Iodide Molecules

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sabine Abb, Sven Alexander Szilagyi, Hannah Julia Ochner

Atomic design of a 2D-material such as graphene can be substantially influenced by etching, deliberately induced in a transmission electron microscope. It is achieved primarily by overcoming the threshold energy for defect formation by controlling the kine ...

Systematic design of millisecond gasification reactor for the incorporation of gas-sieving nanopores in single-layer graphene

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Luis Francisco Villalobos Vazquez de la Parra, Shiqi Huang, Shaoxian Li, Kuang-Jung Hsu

Etching an ensemble of vacancy defects (nanopores) in single-layer graphene (SLG) to obtain a high density of nanopores with an effective size that enables high-performance gas sieving is challenging. This is because nanopore nucleation and expansion are u ...
