Direct preparation of standard functional interfaces in oxide heterostructures for 2DEG analysis through beam-induced platinum contacts
(AIP Publishing, 2018-09-24)
Two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in SrTiO3/LaAlO3 heterostructures has been extensively studied in the last few years; however, little attention has been given to a practical way to contact electrically the low dimensional ...
Computational design of an amidase by combining the best electrostatic features of two promiscuous hydrolases
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022-03-15)
While there has been emerging interest in designing new enzymes to solve practical challenges, computer-based options to redesign catalytically active proteins are rather limited. Here, a rational QM/MM molecular dynamics ...
Understanding the White-Emitting CaMoO4 Co-Doped Eu3+, Tb3+, and Tm3+ Phosphor through Experiment and Computation
(American Chemical Society, 2019-07-09)
In this article, the synthesis by means of the spray pyrolysis method, of the CaMoO4 and rare-earth cation (RE3+)-doped CaMoO4:xRE3+ (RE3+ = Eu3+, Tb3+, and Tm3+; and x = 1, 2, and 4% mol) compounds, is presented. The ...
Tuning the Morphological, Optical, and Antimicrobial Properties of α-Ag2WO4 Microcrystals Using Different Solvents
(2017)
New, effective antimicrobial agents are constantly being evaluated for addressing the increased prevalence of bacterial and fungal infections and emerging drug resistance. In this study, α- Ag2WO4 microcrystals were prepared ...
Isotope Substitution of Promiscuous Alcohol Dehydrogenase Reveals the Origin of Substrate Preference in the Transition State
(Wiley, 2018-03-12)
The origin of substrate preference in promiscuous enzymes was investigated by enzyme isotope labelling of the alcohol dehydrogenase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus (BsADH). At physiological temperature, protein dynamic ...
Structure, morphology and photoluminescence emissions of ZnMoO4: RE 3+=Tb3+ - Tm3+ - X Eu3+ (x = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mol%) particles obtained by the sonochemical method
(Elsevier, 2018-06)
ZnMoO4 and ZnMoO4: RE3+ = 1% Tb3+, 1% Tm3+, x Eu3+ (x = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mol%) particles were prepared by a sonochemical method. The influence of the dopant content on photoluminescent behavior was investigated. The ...
ZnWO4 nanocrystals: synthesis, morphology, photoluminescence and photocatalytic properties
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
The present joint experimental and theoretical work provides in-depth understanding on the morphology
and structural, electronic, and optical properties of ZnWO4 nanocrystals. Monoclinic ZnWO4 nanocrystals
were prepared ...
Morphology and Band Structure of Orthorhombic PbS Nanoplatelets: An Indirect Band Gap Material
(American Chemical Society, 2021-01-12)
PbS quantum dots and nanoplatelets (NPLs) are of enormous interest in the development of optoelectronic devices. However, some important aspects of their nature remain unclear. Recent studies have revealed that colloidal ...
Why Are Some Enzymes Dimers? Flexibility and Catalysis in Thermotoga maritima Dihydrofolate Reductase
(American Chemical Society, 2019-05-13)
Dihydrofolate reductase from Thermotoga maritima (TmDFHFR) is a dimeric thermophilic enzyme that catalyzes the hydride transfer from the cofactor NADPH to dihydrofolate less efficiently than other DHFR enzymes, such as the ...
Tuning intraband and interband transition rates via excitonic correlation in low-dimensional semiconductors
(ACS Publications, 2018-08)
We show that electron-hole correlation can be used to tune interband and intra-
band optical transition rates in semiconductor nanostructures with at least one weakly
confined direction. The valence-to-conduction band ...
