Invariant-based inverse engineering of time-dependent, coupled harmonic oscillators
(American Physical Society, 2020-12-14)
Two-dimensional (2D) systems with time-dependent controls admit a quadratic Hamiltonian modeling near potential minima. Independent, dynamical normal modes facilitate inverse Hamiltonian engineering to control the system ...
Interferometer for force measurement via a shortcut to adiabatic arm guiding
(American Physical Society, 2020-06-12)
We propose a compact atom interferometer to measure homogeneous constant forces guiding the arms via shortcuts to adiabatic paths. For a given sensitivity, which only depends on the space-time area of the guiding paths, ...
Catalyst-Free Amino-Yne Click Reaction: An Efficient Way for Immobilizing Amoxicillin onto Polymeric Surfaces
(MDPI, 2024-01-15)
Surface modifications play a crucial role in enhancing the functionality of biomaterials. Different approaches can be followed in order to achieve the bioconjugation of drugs and biological compounds onto polymer surfaces. ...
Quantum Measurements and Delays in Scattering by Zero-Range Potentials
(MDPI, 2024-01-16)
Eisenbud–Wigner–Smith delay and the Larmor time give different estimates for the duration of a quantum scattering event. The difference is most pronounced in the case where the de Broglie wavelength is large compared to ...
Strategies to Enhance Biomedical Device Performance and Safety: A Comprehensive Review
(MDPI, 2023-11-21)
This paper reviews different approaches to obtain biomaterials with tailored functionalities and explains their significant characteristics that influence their bioactivity. The main goal of this discussion underscores the ...
Anthocyanin-Loaded Polymers as Promising Nature-Based, Responsive, and Bioactive Materials
(MDPI, 2024-01-04)
Anthocyanins are a specific group of molecules found in nature that have recently received increasing attention due to their interesting biological and colorimetric properties that have been successfully applied in several ...
Graphene-Enhanced Methacrylated Alginate Gel Films for Sustainable Dye Removal in Water Purification
(MDPI, 2023-12-27)
Self-standing nanocomposite films were prepared by three-dimensional UV-induced radical copolymerization of methacrylated alginate (MALG) with acrylic acid (AA) and reinforced with graphene oxide (GO) to improve both ...
Tuning the Affinity of Catechols and Salicylic Acids towards Al(III): Characterization of Al-Chelator Interactions
(2018-06-11)
Due to aluminum's controversial role in neurotoxicity, the goal of chelation therapy, the removal of the toxic metal ion or attenuation of its toxicity by transforming it into less toxic compounds, has attracted considerable ...
A General Modular Approach for the Solubility Tagging of BODIPY Dyes
(Elsevier, 2019-05-09)
We describe a general and practical strategy for the direct one-step incorporation of a tunable solubility module at the boron atom of F-BODIPY dyes. The tethering reaction uses easy-to-handle reagents, has broad functional ...
Structure and Stability of the Endohedrally Doped (X@CdS) X=Na,K,Cl,Br Nanoclusters.
(ACS, 2010-01-27)
Endohedral (X@CdiSi)q=0,±1 structures have been characterized by means of the density functional theory with X being alkali metals such as Na and K or halogens such as Cl and Br and with i = 4, 9, 12, 15, 16. These ...
