Engineering Dielectric Properties of Nanomaterials
Metallic nanostructures can exhibit plasmonic modes due to coherent oscillations of the free electrons under electromagnetic excitations. Therefore, they find diverse applications in optical sensing, photonics, and ...
An Exploration of Molecular Recognition Mechanisms and Ligand Induced Transitions in Biomolecules
Molecular recognition refers to processes through which biological macromolecules interact with
each other or other small molecules through noncovalent interactions to form specific
complexes. Applying molecular recognition ...
Transition in the Conformational Ensemble of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins: Implications for Phase Separation and Aggregation
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are enriched with charged and polar residues and lack a unique three-dimensional structure. Due to the high fraction of charged residues, IDPs are disordered and dynamic, transitioning ...
Growth and Characterization of Single crystalline VO2 Heterostructures
Vanadium dioxide is a strongly correlated material with a temperature driven metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) near room temperature (~340 K). This electronic transition is accompanied by a structural transition from ...
From Multidimensional non-Markovian Rate Theory to Diffusion-Entropy Scaling and Investigations into the validity of Hydrodynamic Stokes Law
Multidimensional rate theory provides a theoretical framework for understanding chemical reactions that occur in systems with more than one reaction coordinate, such as isomerization reactions, protein folding, or electron ...
On the Origin of Parasitic (Electro)Chemistry in Rechargeable Aprotic Metal-Oxygen Batteries
Aprotic metal-oxygen batteries, especially Li-O2 and Na-O2 batteries, could afford theoretical specific
energies in excess of 1000 Wh/kg. However, the practical realization of the theoretically possible high
specific ...
