Understanding enhanced charge storage of phosphorus-functionalized graphene in aqueous acidic electrolytes
(Elsevier, 2020-11-20)
The mechanisms behind enhanced charge storage of P-functionalized carbons are unraveled for the first time using non-porous graphene oxide treated with phosphoric acid and annealed at either 400 or 800 degrees C. The ...
Longitudinal Growth Curve Trajectories of Family Dynamics after Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury in Mexico
(MDPI, 2020-11-17)
Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a serious public health concern. Family members are often caregivers for children with TBI, which can result in a significant strain on familial relationships. Research is ...
Nontopological Solitons in Abelian Gauge Theories Coupled to U(1) x U(1) Symmetric Scalar Fields
(American Physical Society, 2020-10-27)
In a series of recent works, Ishihara and Ogawa have investigated nontopological solitons (Q-balls) in a spontaneously broken Abelian gauge theory coupled to two complex scalar fields. The present paper extends their ...
Parental Corporal Punishment and Peer Victimization in Middle Childhood: a Sex-Moderated Mediation Model of Aggression
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
There is a peak in peer victimization during middle childhood, with multiple negative consequences. Parental use of corporal punishment and child aggression are the most widely studied predictors of this phenomenon. The ...
Large magnetoelectric coupling in multiferroic oxide heterostructures assembled via epitaxial lift-off
(Nature, 2020-06-24)
Epitaxial films may be released from growth substrates and transferred to structurally and chemically incompatible substrates, but epitaxial films of transition metal perovskite oxides have not been transferred to electroactive ...
Overcoming the Exciton Binding Energy in Two-Dimensional Perovskite Nanoplatelets by Attachment of Conjugated Organic Chromophores
(Nature, 2020-04-20)
In this work we demonstrate a novel approach to achieve efficient charge separation in dimensionally and dielectrically confined two-dimensional perovskite materials. Two-dimensional perovskites generally exhibit large ...
The Relationship Between Phonemic Category Boundary Changes and Perceptual Adjustments to Natural Accents
(Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020)
People often experience difficulties when they first hear a novel accent. Prior research has shown that
relatively fast natural accent accommodation can occur. However, there has been little investigation of
the underlying ...
Review of Systems Engineering (SE) Methods and Their Application to Wave Energy Technology Development
(MDPI, 2020-10-20)
The design of effective and economically viable wave energy devices involves complex decision-making about the product based on conceptual design information, including stakeholder requirements, functions, components and ...
A Hybrid FCC/HZSM-5 Catalyst for the Catalytic Cracking of a VGO/Bio-Oil Blend in FCC Conditions
(MDPI, 2020)
The performance of a commercial FCC catalyst (designated as CY) and a physically mixed hybrid catalyst (80 wt.% CY and 20 wt.% HZSM-5-based catalyst, designated as CH) have been compared in the catalytic cracking of a ...
Frames of reference for the electoral Debates of the 2015 and 2016 general elections in Spain: credibility as the sustenance of satisfaction with politicians
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2020)
This work describes the perception contexts of the two main electoral debates for the Spanish general elections of 2015 and 2016, together with the tactics of the candidates to gain credibility and to successfully negotiate ...
