The early stage of molecular oxygen adsorption on the Ag(100) surface was reexamined with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory. Using an oxygen-functionalized STM tip, we demonstrated that the simple interpretation of the individual objects randomly distributed over the surface as chemisorbed oxygen atoms is incompatible with the cross-shaped structures observed in atomic-resolution images in the current work. In our model, each feature is an oxide-like cross formed by two intersecting O–Ag–O–Ag–O chains, with oxygen atoms in vacancies in the Ag(100) layer. Furthermore, we found numerous oxygen-free vacancies randomly diffusing over the surface under the STM probe even at 77 K.

Resonators based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) using two-dimensional (2D) materials with high-quality factors and excellent electrical control are critical for tunable coherent phonon dynamics, resonant sensors and wireless communications. However, their performance is fundamentally limited by the lack of a unified framework governing energy dissipation mechanisms and their electrical tunability. Here, we synergistically modulate both ...

Thermoelectric materials, long explored for energy harvesting and thermal sensing, convert heat directly into electrical signals. Extending their application to the terahertz (THz) frequency range opens opportunities for low-noise, bias-free THz detection, yet conventional thermoelectrics lack the sensitivity required for practical devices. Thermoelectric coefficients can be strongly enhanced near van Hove singularities (VHS), though these ...

Chalcogen bonds (ChBs) are often interpreted as 𝜎-hole driven electrostatic interactions between a chalcogen atom and a Lewis base, yet their covalent character remains under active discussion. Here, we present a real-space, reference-free study of prototypical X2Ch···X– complexes (X = F, Cl; Ch = O, S) using the Interacting Quantum Atoms (IQA) energy decomposition within ...

Oxidation of sulfides by singlet oxygen has been extensively studied, yet the structure-photoactivity relationship of these photosensitizers remains underinvestigated. In the present work the photocatalytic performance of a set of functionalized palladium(II) porphyrinates was comprehensively investigated in the photocatalytic oxidation of sulfides to reveal mutual influence of structural peculiarities onto the photosensitizing properties. The photophysical ...

Novel cobalt bis(dicarbollide) based terminal alkynes with charge-compensated group in a spacer were synthesized by the nucleophilic ring-opening reactions of cyclic oxonium derivatives of cobalt bis(dicarbollide) with N,N-dimethylbut-3-yn-1-amine. A series of zwitterionic conjugates of cobalt bis(dicarbollide) with BODIPY were synthesized using the copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The absorption-emission spectra of the synthesized fluorescent conjugates of cobalt ...

This paper investigates one possible solution to the problem of self-interference cancellation (SIC) arising in the design of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) communication systems. Self-interference cancellation is performed in the digital domain using multilayer nonlinear models adapted via gradient-based optimization. The presence of local minima and saddle points during the adaptation of multilayer models limits the ...

Pyruvylation is one of the immunochemically relevant modifications of O-antigens in bacterial and fungal cells. Therefore, fast and relatively simple analytical methods for identifying this modification are highly demanded. 13C NMR spectroscopy is the best candidate for this purpose, but its successful application requires using reference structures and reliable databases. In this work, we collected ...

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...
