MANIPULATING AND SIMPLIFYING THE INTERMOLECULAR INTERACTIONS IN LIQUID MIXTURES
(2017)
Long ranged intermolecular interactions have significant influence on the structure of the liquid and present serious challenges for computer simulations. In particular, the long ranged tail of Coulomb interaction usually ...
Analysis of Genetic Regulatory Mechanisms that Control Ethanolamine Utilization in Enterococcus faecalis
(2017)
In this project, we studied the genetic regulatory mechanisms that affect utilization of ethanolamine, an abundant compound in the gastrointestinal environment. In Enterococcus faecalis, the ethanolamine utilization (eut) ...
Understanding the Relationships Between Architecture, Chemistry, and Energy Release of Energetic Nanocomposites
(2017)
Energetic nanocomposites are a class of reactive material that incorporate nanosized materials or features in order to enhance reaction kinetics and energy densities. Typically, these systems employ metal nanoparticles as ...
THE DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF SITE-SELECTIVELY ISOTOPICALLY LABELED NUCLEOTIDES TO PROBLEMS IN NMR SPECTROSCOPY:STRUCTURAL INSIGHTS INTO THE EPSILON RNA AND TARGET COMPOUND INTERACTIONS
(2017)
RNA plays a central role in a multitude of cellular processes. Understanding the complex interplay between its structure and function is a requisite for understanding these cellular roles mechanisms of action. Herein we ...
DYNAMICS OF LARGE SYSTEMS OF NONLINEARLY EVOLVING UNITS
(2017)
The dynamics of large systems of many nonlinearly evolving units is a general research area that has great importance for many areas in science and technology, including biology, computation by artificial neural networks, ...
Dissipation in a superfluid atom circuit
(2017)
Bose-Einstein condensates of weakly interacting dilute atomic gases provide a unique system with which to study phenomena associated with superfluidity. The simplicity of these systems allows us to study the fundamental ...
RESOLUTION IMPROVEMENT OF PHOTOLITHOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES BASED ON VISIBLE LIGHT
(2017)
The semiconductor industry is planning to use Extreme Ultraviolet lithography as its next-generation patterning technique. However, this technique has run into many roadblocks due to its cost and complexity. An alternative ...
Immobilized Seed-mediated Growth of Two Dimensional Arrays of Shaped Metallic Nanocrystals
(2017)
Acknowledging that the optical properties of noble metal nanocrystals (NMNCs) are largely determined by their size, composition, and shape, the demand for NMNCs with controlled shapes is expected to increase. To expand the ...
Optical and quantum interferences in strong field ionization and optimal control
(2017)
For decades, ultrafast laser pulses have been used to probe and control strong-field molecular dynamics, including in optimal control experiments. While these experiments successfully recover the optimal control pulses ...
ELECTRONIC MODIFICATION WITHIN THE WELL-ESTABLISHED CPAM FRAMEWORK AS A MEANS TOWARD INCREASED REACTIVITY
(2017)
Early transition metals (group IV-VI) supported by the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-amidinate mixed ligand set (CPAM) have been found to enable a number of important chemical transformations including (living) coordinative ...
