Equipartition of Rotational and Translational Energy in a Dense Granular Gas

PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS, 108(1).

By: K. Nichol* & K. Daniels n

TL;DR: Experiments quantifying the rotational and translational motion of particles in a dense, driven, 2D granular gas floating on an air table reveal that kinetic energy is divided equally between the two translational and one rotational degrees of freedom. (via Semantic Scholar)

Electric Field Induced Phase Transitions in Polymers: A Novel Mechanism for High Speed Energy Storage

Physical Review Letters, 108(8).

TL;DR: Using first-principles simulations, this work identifies the microscopic origin of the nonlinear dielectric response and high energy density of polyvinylidene-fluoride-based polymers as a cooperative transition path that connects nonpolar and polar phases of the system.

Theory of nitrogen doping of carbon nanoribbons: Edge effects

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 136(1), 014702.

By: J. Jiang n, J. Turnbull n, W. Lu n, P. Boguslawski n & J. Bernholc n

author keywords: ab initio calculations; carbon; conduction bands; density functional theory; effective mass; impurity states; ionisation; nitrogen
MeSH headings : Nanotubes, Carbon / chemistry; Nitrogen / chemistry; Quantum Theory
TL;DR: Using state-of-the-art ab initio calculations, including hybrid exact-exchange density functional theory, it is found that, for N-doped zigzag ribbons, the electronic properties are strongly dependent uponSublattice effects due to the non-equivalence of the two sublattices.

The Soft-Confined Method for Creating Molecular Models of Amorphous Polymer Surfaces

JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY B, 116(5), 1570–1578.

MeSH headings : Cellulose / chemistry; Molecular Dynamics Simulation; Polypropylenes / chemistry; Water / chemistry
TL;DR: A new method to produce molecular models for amorphous surface layers of polypropylene and cellulose was developed, which involved the use of a "soft" confining layer comprised of a xenon crystal that compacts the polymers into a density distribution and a degree of molecular surface roughness that corresponds well to experimental values.

Supramolecular Self-Assembly of pi-Conjugated Hydrocarbons via 2D Cooperative CH/pi Interaction

ACS NANO, 6(1), 566–572.

author keywords: phenylacetylene; self-assembly; STM; supramolecule; hydrogen bonding; magic cluster
MeSH headings : Carbon / chemistry; Computer Simulation; Hydrogen / chemistry; Hydrogen Bonding; Macromolecular Substances / chemistry; Models, Chemical; Models, Molecular; Nanostructures / chemistry; Nanostructures / ultrastructure; Particle Size; Surface Properties
TL;DR: It is shown that functionalizing a benzene molecule with an ethyne group introduces attractive interactions in a 2D geometry, which would otherwise be dominated by intermolecular repulsion, and enables supramolecular self-assembly. (via Semantic Scholar)

Fluctuation modes of nanoconfined DNA

Journal of Applied Physics, 111(2), 024701.

By: A. Karpusenko n, J. Carpenter n, C. Zhou n, S. Lim n, J. Pan n & R. Riehn n

TL;DR: An experimental investigation of the magnitude of length and density fluctuations in DNA that has been stretched in nanofluidic channels finds that the experimental data can be described using a one-dimensional overdamped oscillator chain with nonzero equilibrium spring length and that a chain of discrete oscillators yields a better description than a continuous chain.

Activation of water on the TiO2 (110) surface: The case of Ti adatoms

JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS, 136(6).

MeSH headings : Adsorption; Models, Molecular; Surface Properties; Titanium / chemistry; Water / chemistry
TL;DR: The results provide fundamental insights into the microscopic mechanisms that drive this reaction at the atomic level and assess the possibility of using this system to activate the water dissociation reaction, showing that a single water molecule dissociates exothermically with a small energy barrier.
