BACKGROUND: Lipophilic antioxidants play dual key roles in edible seeds (i) as preservatives of cell integrity and seed viability by preventing the oxidation of fats, and (ii) as essential nutrients for human and animal ... -
Significant implications of permafrost thawing for climate change control
(Climatic Change, 2016-04-11)Large amounts of carbon are stored as permafrost within the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. As permafrost thaws due to climate warming, carbon dioxide and methane are released. Recent studies indicate that the pool of carbon ... -
Significant Surface Spin Effects and Exchange Bias in Iron Oxide-Based Hollow Magnetic Nanoparticles
(MDPI, 2022-01-28)Exchange bias (EB) properties have become especially important in hollow magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) due to the versatility and reduced size of these materials. In this work, we present the synthesis and study of the EB ... -

Simulating Vibronic Spectra without Born-Oppenheimer Surfaces
(ACS Publications, 2021-04-01)We show how linear vibronic spectra in molecular systems can be simulated efficiently using first-principles approaches without relying on the explicit use of multiple Born-Oppenheimer potential energy surfaces. We demonstrate ... -
Single Chiral Skyrmions in Ultrathin Magnetic Films
(MDPI, 2018-11-11)The stability and sizes of chiral skyrmions in ultrathin magnetic films are calculated accounting for the isotropic exchange, Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange interaction (DMI), and out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy within ... -
Single- Versus Dual-Ion UV-Cross-Linked Gel Polymer Electrolytes for Li–O2 Batteries
(Americal Chemical Society, 2021-01-04)Lithium-O2 batteries represent one of the most appealing candidates for battery electric vehicles (BEV) due to its remarkable theoretical high energy density, similar to fossil fuels. Solid polymer electrolytes represent ... -
