🔎Title: Probing the Chemistry of Cu(I) with 111Ag Perturbed Angular Correlation ( )

🖋 Authors: Victoria Karner et al.

📌

The two most common oxidation states of copper in biochemistry are Cu(II) and Cu(I), and while Cu(II) lends itself to spectroscopic interrogation, Cu(I) is silent in most techniques. Ag(I) and Cu(I) are both closed-shell d10 monovalent ions, and to some extent share ligand and coordination geometry ...

🔎Title: Effect of CaO-TiO2-SiO2 on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Ceramic Corundum Abrasives

🖋 Authors: Quanbao Zhao, Zhihong Li and Yumei Zhu

📌

Ceramic corundum abrasives were prepared using pseudo-boehmite as a raw material via the sol-gel method. Additives can significantly change the microscopic morphology of abrasives and improve mechanical properties. When 2 wt% CaO-TiO2-SiO2 with a molar ratio of 3:4:9 was added, samples with the best...

🔎Title: Solvent-Free Selective Oxidation of Benzyl Using Ru(0) Supported on

🖋 Authors: Eleonora Aneggi et al.

📌

The selective oxidation of primary alcohols into their corresponding carbonyl compounds is challenging because of the easy over oxidization to acids and esters. The traditional reaction requires large amounts of solvent and oxidant, causing serious environmental issues. Recently, several efforts hav...

🖋 Authors: Chandana C. W. Kananke-Gamage and Farshid Ramezanipour

📌

The correlation of the electrocatalytic activity with electrical conductivity, oxygen-vacancies, and electronegativity have been studied in a series of isostructural oxides, having the so-called Ruddlesden-Popper structure. The structures of these materials comprise transition metals that are octahe...

🔎Title: Machine-Guided Design of Oxidation-Resistant Superconductors for Quantum Information Applications

🖋 Authors: Carson Koppel et al.

📌

Decoherence in superconducting qubits has long been attributed to two-level systems arising from the surfaces and interfaces present in real devices. A recent significant step in reducing decoherence was the replacement of superconducting niobium by superconducting tantalum, resulting in a tripling ...
