Abstract: We devise a unique heteronanostructure array to overcome a persistent issue of simultaneously utilizing the surface-enhanced Raman scattering, inexpensive, Earth-abundant materials large surface areas, and multifunctionality to demonstrate near single-molecule detection...

Abstract: Infusion of low surface tension liquids in nanostructured surfaces is currently used to promote an anti-icing response, although the long term stability of these systems is often jeopardized by losses of the infused liquid. In this work, we propose an alternative...

Abstract: Laboratory astrochemistry aims at simulating, in the laboratory, some of the chemical and physical processes that operate in different regions of the universe. Amongst the diverse astrochemical problems that can be addressed in the laboratory...

Abstract: In the past decade, astrochemistry has witnessed an impressive increase in the number of detections of complex organic molecules. Some of these species are of prebiotic interest such as glycolaldehyde...

Liquid water is well known as the life ingredient as a solvent. However, so far, it has only been found in liquid state on this planetary surface. The aim of this experiment and technological development was to test if a moss sample is capable of survivin….

A multilayer passive radiative selective cooling coating based on Al/SiO₂/SiN_x/SiO₂/TiO₂/SiO₂ prepared by dc magnetron sputtering is presented. The design was first theoretically optimized using the optical constants...

Gas-phase reactions in the interstellar medium (ISM) are a source of molecules in this environment. The knowledge of the rate coefficient for neutral–neutral reactions as a function of temperature, k(T), is essential to improve...

Herein we have developed nanostructured nickel-based electrode films for anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE). The electrodes were prepared by magnetron sputtering (MS) in an oblique angle configuration...

Fusion experiments use lithium and boron getters to capture impurities and control the density of fuel species in the plasma. In the TJ-II Stellarator, the addition of a boron-carbon substrate was found to extend the lifetime of the very reactive lithium wall conditioning….
