TL;DR: In this paper, a mixture of metastable Si-III and Si-XII phases was observed by both selected area diffraction in TEM and Raman analysis, and a mechanism of dislocation-induced lattice rotation that leads to a phase transition and distortion-induced amorphization in nanoindentation was proposed.
Abstract: Plan-view transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman microspectroscopy were used to identify metastable silicon phases in nanoindentation. A mixture of metastable Si-III and Si-XII phases was observed by both selected area diffraction in TEM and Raman analysis. High resolution TEM observations provided detailed structural information about the metastable phases of silicon and the interfaces between different silicon structures. A mechanism of dislocation-induced lattice rotation that leads to a phase transition and distortion-induced amorphization in nanoindentation is proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that supercapacitors with pore size and shape, matched with the effective size of partially solvated ions of the electrolyte, are the key factors in achieving high energy density over a wide range of temperatures, where traditional energy storage devices fail to operate.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a highly integrated study with multiscale theory/modelling and experiments to track the intercalation of aqueous Li+, Na+, K+, Cs+, and Mg2+ ions into Ti3C2 MXene.
Abstract: Enhancing the energy stored and power delivered by layered materials relies strongly on improved understanding of the intricate interplay of electrolyte ions, solvents, and electrode interactions as well as the role of confinement. Here we report a highly integrated study with multiscale theory/modelling and experiments to track the intercalation of aqueous Li+, Na+, K+, Cs+, and Mg2+ ions into Ti3C2 MXene. The integrated analysis of experiments assisted by theory/modelling allows for a deep understanding of energy storage processes highlighting the importance of the dynamics of cations, their positionings between MXene sheets, their effects on mechanical properties and capacitive energy storage. Computational simulations and operando calorimetry measurements prove the processes involving cation dehydration and H+ rehydration, showing a good correlation for heat variations between experiments and theory. Operando liquid AFM mapped energy dissipation of ions appears non-uniformly across the MXene surface, indicating heterogeneities of ions inside the MXene and confirming partially the ion behaviour obtained in theory. We directly demonstrate that the average distance between the cation and MXene surface follows a modified two-sided Helmholtz model when plotted versus the open circuit potential capacitance, revealing a different electrical double layer mechanism in confinement. This new fundamental understanding lays the foundation for improved functional devices utilizing electrodes and membranes made of two-dimensional materials.

TL;DR: The results from the desorption studies demonstrate that, by changing the pH environment of drug loaded nanodiamond using buffers of pH 4.09, 7.45, 8.02, and a phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution, the drug release can effectively be triggered.
Abstract: The unique properties and tailorable surface of detonation nanodiamonds have given rise to an abundance of potential biomedical applications. Very little is known about the details of adsorption/desorption equilibria of drugs on/from nanodiamonds with different purity, surface chemistry, and agglomeration state. The studies presented here delve into the details of adsorption and desorption of tetracycline (TET) and vancomycin (VAN) on nanodiamond, which are critically important for the rational design of the nanodiamond drug delivery systems. The nanodiamonds studied in these experiments were as-received (ND), purified and carboxyl terminated (ND-COOH), and aminated (ND-NH2). The monolayer capacities of the drugs loaded onto the nanodiamonds are reported herein using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The results from the desorption studies demonstrate that, by changing the pH environment of drug loaded nanodiamond using buffers of pH 4.09, 7.45, 8.02, and a phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution, the drug release can effectively be triggered.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

TL;DR: Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems.
Abstract: Three parallel algorithms for classical molecular dynamics are presented. The first assigns each processor a fixed subset of atoms; the second assigns each a fixed subset of inter-atomic forces to compute; the third assigns each a fixed spatial region. The algorithms are suitable for molecular dynamics models which can be difficult to parallelize efficiently—those with short-range forces where the neighbors of each atom change rapidly. They can be implemented on any distributed-memory parallel machine which allows for message-passing of data between independently executing processors. The algorithms are tested on a standard Lennard-Jones benchmark problem for system sizes ranging from 500 to 100,000,000 atoms on several parallel supercomputers--the nCUBE 2, Intel iPSC/860 and Paragon, and Cray T3D. Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems. For large problems, the spatial algorithm achieves parallel efficiencies of 90% and a 1840-node Intel Paragon performs up to 165 faster than a single Cray C9O processor. Trade-offs between the three algorithms and guidelines for adapting them to more complex molecular dynamics simulations are also discussed.

TL;DR: This work has shown that combination of pseudo-capacitive nanomaterials, including oxides, nitrides and polymers, with the latest generation of nanostructured lithium electrodes has brought the energy density of electrochemical capacitors closer to that of batteries.
Abstract: Electrochemical capacitors, also called supercapacitors, store energy using either ion adsorption (electrochemical double layer capacitors) or fast surface redox reactions (pseudo-capacitors). They can complement or replace batteries in electrical energy storage and harvesting applications, when high power delivery or uptake is needed. A notable improvement in performance has been achieved through recent advances in understanding charge storage mechanisms and the development of advanced nanostructured materials. The discovery that ion desolvation occurs in pores smaller than the solvated ions has led to higher capacitance for electrochemical double layer capacitors using carbon electrodes with subnanometre pores, and opened the door to designing high-energy density devices using a variety of electrolytes. Combination of pseudo-capacitive nanomaterials, including oxides, nitrides and polymers, with the latest generation of nanostructured lithium electrodes has brought the energy density of electrochemical capacitors closer to that of batteries. The use of carbon nanotubes has further advanced micro-electrochemical capacitors, enabling flexible and adaptable devices to be made. Mathematical modelling and simulation will be the key to success in designing tomorrow's high-energy and high-power devices.
