Article Abstract

Focusing on LaFeO, we investigated the effects of magnetic ordering on carrier relaxation using time-domain density functional theory and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics. The results show that the hot energy and carrier relaxation occur on a sub-2 ps time scale due to the strong intraband nonadiabatic coupling, and the corresponding time scales are distinct depending on the magnetic ordering of LaFeO. Importantly, the energy relaxation is slower than hot carrier relaxation, guaranteeing photogenerated hot carriers can be effectively relaxed to the band edge before cooling. Following hot carrier relaxation, the charge recombination occurs on the nanosecond scale due to the small interband nonadiabatic coupling and short pure-dephasing times. In addition, the A-AFM system has the longest carrier lifetimes because of its weakest nonadiabatic coupling. Our study suggests that the carrier lifetime can be controlled by changing the magnetic ordering of perovskite oxides and provides valuable principles for the design of high-performance photoelectrodes.

Balanced or biased G protein and arrestin transmembrane signaling by the adenosine 2A receptor (AAR) is related to ligand-induced allosterically triggered variation of structural dynamics in the intracellular half of the transmembrane domain (TMD). F-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of a network of genetically introduced meta-trifluoromethyl-L-phenylalanine (mtfF) probes in the core of the TMD revealed signaling-related structure rearrangements leading from the extracellular orthosteric drug-binding site to the G protein and arrestin contacts on the intracellular surface. The key element in this structural basis of signal transfer is dynamic loss of structural order in the intracellular half of the TMD, as manifested by local polymorphisms and associated rate processes within the molecular architecture determined previously by X-ray crystallography.

Purpose: Resection of glioblastomas infiltrating the motor cortex and corticospinal tract (CST) is often linked to increased perioperative morbidity. Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) motor mapping has been advocated to increase patient safety in these cases. The additional impact of patient frailty on overall outcome after resection of cases with increased risk for postoperative motor deficits as identified with nTMS needs to be investigated.

Purpose: Modifying interference screw composition may ensure better osteoconductive properties in order to reduce tunnel enlargement after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The primary and secondary purposes were to evaluate tunnel and screw volume changes in poly-L-lactide acid (PLLA) and poly-D-lactic acid + hydroxyapatite + β-tricalcium phosphate (PLDLA+) screws. The tertiary purpose was to compare patient reported- and functional outcomes between PLLA and PLDLA+ group.

First-principles insights into structure and magnetism in ultra-small tetrahedral iron oxide nanoparticles.

Structural and magnetic properties of ultra-small tetrahedron-shaped iron oxide nanoparticles were investigated using density functional theory. Tetrahedral and truncated tetrahedral models were considered in both non-functionalized form and with surfaces passivated by pseudo-hydrogen atoms. The focus on these two morphologies reflects their experimental relevance at this size scale and the feasibility of performing fully relaxed, atomistically resolved first-principles simulations.

Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) with spin resolution, scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS) and density functional theory (DFT) methods, we study the electronic structure of graphene-covered and bare Au/Co(0001) systems and reveal intriguing features, arising from the ferrimagnetic order in graphene and the underlying gold monolayer. In particular, a spin-polarized Dirac-cone-like state, intrinsically related to the induced magnetization of Au, was discovered at point. We have obtained a good agreement between experiment and theory for bare and graphene-covered Au/Co(0001) and have proven that both Au ferrimagnetism and the Dirac-cone-like band are intimately linked to the triangular loop dislocations present at the Au/Co interface.
