TL;DR: In this paper, the geometry and electronic structure of reduced ceria surfaces with oxygen vacancies were examined using first principles density functional theory (DFT), with the inclusion of on site electronic correlations, and it was shown that the (1, 1, 0) surface has the lowest vacancy formation energy.

TL;DR: This paper reports a new approach to the template-directed synthesis of inorganic±organic nanotubes using tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), and shows that TMV is a suitable template for reactions such as co-crystallization, oxidative hydrolysis, and sol-gel condensation.
Abstract: The use of biological molecules, assemblies and systems in the development of inorganic materials synthesis continues to offer new and exciting alternatives to conventional synthetic strategies. Biological templates, such as protein cages, viroid capsules, bacterial rhapidosomes, S-layers, multicellular superstructures, biolipid cylinders, and DNA, have been utilized to direct the deposition, assembly, and patterning of inorganic nanoparticles and microstructures. In this paper, we report a new approach to the template-directed synthesis of inorganic±organic nanotubes using tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). TMV is a remarkably stable virion, remaining intact at temperatures up to 60 C and at pH values between 2 and 10. Each viral particle consists of 2130 identical protein subunits arranged in a helical motif around a single strand of RNA to produce a hollow protein tube, 300 18 nm in size, with a 4 nm-wide central channel. The internal and external surfaces of the protein consist of repeated patterns of charged amino acid residues, such as glutamate, aspartate, arginine, and lysine. In principle, these functionalities should offer a wide variety of nucleation sites for surface-controlled inorganic deposition, which, in association with the high thermal and pH stability, could be exploited in the synthesis of unusual materials such as high-aspect-ratio composites and protein-confined inorganic nanowires. Here we show that TMV is a suitable template for reactions such as co-crystallization (CdS and PbS), oxidative hydrolysis (iron oxides), and sol-gel condensation (SiO2) (Fig. 1).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review and identify the materials known as difficult-to-machine and their properties and major health and environmental concerns about their usage in material cutting industries are defined.
Abstract: Machining difficult-to-machine materials such as alloys used in aerospace, nuclear and medical industries are usually accompanied with low productivity, poor surface quality and short tool life. Despite the broad use of the term difficult-to-machine or hard-to-cut materials, the area of these types of materials and their properties are not clear yet. On the other hand, using cutting fluids is a common technique for improving machinability and has been acknowledged since early 20th. However, the environmental and health hazards associated with the use of conventional cutting fluids together with developing governmental regulations have resulted in increasing machining costs. The aim of this paper is to review and identify the materials known as difficult-to-machine and their properties. In addition, different cutting fluids are reviewed and major health and environmental concerns about their usage in material cutting industries are defined. Finally, advances in reducing and/or eliminating the use of conventional cutting fluids are reviewed and discussed.
