Moreover, the addition of MoS2 induces a modification of the anode interface properties, including a change in the work function and a significant enhancement of the permittivity of the HTL.The quaternary tungstates Li3Ba2RE3(WO4)8 (RE = La-Nd, Sm-Ho) were obtained by a ceramic synthesis route and were characterized by powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The structures of Li3Ba2Pr3(WO4)8 and Li3Ba2Tb3(WO4)8 were refined from single crystal diffractometer data RbLiBi2(MoO4)4 type, space group C2/c, a = 528.57(2), b = 1292.39(6), c = 1934.80(10) pm, β = 91.522(4)°, 2151 F2 values, 108 parameters for Li3Ba2Pr3(WO4)8 and a = 520.54(2), b = 1272.03(6), c = 1918.85(10) pm, β = 91.948(4)°, 2020 F2 values, 108 variables for Li3Ba2Tb3(WO4)8. Striking polyhedral building units in these tungstates are WO4 tetrahedra and LiO6 octahedra, while the mixed occupied site and the barium atoms have higher coordination numbers, i.e. RE/Li@O8 and Ba@O10. In addition to the powder quality assessment by means of reflection spectroscopy, the synthesized samples were studied for their suitability as a scintillator material. Therefore, X-ray excited luminescence measurements where performed. ZCL278 nmr Apart from Li3Ba2Ce3(WO4)8 and Li3Ba2Nd3(WO4)8, all compounds show strong emission under X-ray irradiation. Li3Ba2La3(WO4)8 and Li3Ba2Gd3(WO4)8 show blue CT luminescence caused by tungstate units, while the other samples show typical and multiple lines due to well known [Xe]4fn → [Xe]4fn transitions.[This corrects the article DOI 10.1039/D0SC01932A.].A range of chemical reactions occurring on the surfaces of metal nanoparticles exhibit enhanced rates under plasmonic excitation. It is not straightforward to distinguish between photochemical and photothermal effect using Arrhenius fitting of the reaction rates alone.[This corrects the article DOI 10.1111/OSP4508.].[This corrects the article DOI 10.1039/D0SC04044D.].[This corrects the article DOI 10.1155/2021/2421091.].[This corrects the article DOI 10.1039/D0SC00317D.].[This corrects the article DOI 10.1039/D0SC02436H.].In his Comment to our paper "Thermal effects - an alternative mechanism for plasmon-assisted photocatalysis", Jain correctly points out that using an Arrhenius fit to the reaction rate is not enough to distinguish thermal from non-thermal effects.[This corrects the article DOI 10.1039/D0SC03521A.].[This corrects the article DOI 10.1039/D0SC01517B.].Gravity is one of the key determinants of human cell function, proliferation, cytoskeletal architecture and orientation. Rotary bioreactor systems (RCCSs) mimic the loss of gravity as it occurs in space and instead provide a microgravity environment through continuous rotation of cultured cells or tissues. These RCCSs ensure an un-interrupted supply of nutrients, growth and transcription factors, and oxygen, and address some of the shortcomings of gravitational forces in motionless 2D (two dimensional) cell or organ culture dishes. In the present study we have used RCCSs to co-culture cervical loop cells and dental pulp cells to become ameloblasts, to characterize periodontal progenitor/scaffold interactions, and to determine the effect of inflammation on lung alveoli. The RCCS environments facilitated growth of ameloblast-like cells, promoted periodontal progenitor proliferation in response to scaffold coatings, and allowed for an assessment of the effects of inflammatory changes on cultured lung alveoli. This manuscript summarizes the environmental conditions, materials, and steps along the way and highlights critical aspects and experimental details. In conclusion, RCCSs are innovative tools to master the culture and 3D (three dimensional) growth of cells in vitro and to allow for the study of cellular systems or interactions not amenable to classic 2D culture environments.This paper describes a method to form methane hydrate shells on water droplets. In addition, it provides blueprints for a pressure cell rated to 10 MPa working pressure, containing a stage for sessile droplets, a sapphire window for visualization, and temperature and pressure transducers. A pressure pump connected to a methane gas cylinder is used to pressurize the cell to 5 MPa. The cooling system is a 10 gallon (37.85 L) tank containing a 50% ethanol solution cooled via ethylene glycol through copper coils. This setup enables the observation of the temperature change associated with hydrate formation and dissociation during cooling and depressurization, respectively, as well as visualization and photography of the morphologic changes of the droplet. With this method, rapid hydrate shell formation was observed at ~-6 °C to -9 °C. During depressurization, a 0.2 °C to 0.5 °C temperature drop was observed at the pressure/temperature (P/T) stability curve due to exothermic hydrate dissociation, confirmed by visual observation of melting at the start of the temperature drop. The "memory effect" was observed after repressurizing to 5 MPa from 2 MPa. This experimental design allows the monitoring of pressure, temperature, and morphology of the droplet over time, making this a suitable method for testing various additives and substrates on hydrate morphology.Cryo-electron microscopy has become one of the most important tools in biological research to reveal the structural information of macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. In single-particle analysis, the vitrified sample is imaged by an electron beam and the detectors at the end of the microscope column produce movies of that sample. These movies contain thousands of images of identical particles in random orientations. The data need to go through an image processing workflow with multiple steps to obtain the final 3D reconstructed volume. The goal of the image processing workflow is to identify the acquisition parameters to be able to reconstruct the specimen under study. Scipion provides all the tools to create this workflow using several image processing packages in an integrative framework, also allowing the traceability of the results. In this article the whole image processing workflow in Scipion is presented and discussed with data coming from a real test case, giving all the details necessary to go from the movies obtained by the microscope to a high resolution final 3D reconstruction.
