A nanograined YBCO target, where a great number of grain boundaries, pores etc. exist, is shown to hold an alternative approach to future pulsed laser deposition based high-temperature superconductor thin film and coated conductor technologies. Although the nanograined material is introduced earlier, in this work, we comprehensively demonstrate the modified ablation process, together with unconventional nucleation and growth mechanisms that produces dramatically enhanced flux pinning properties. The results can be generalized to other complex magnetic oxides, where an increased number of defects are needed for modifying their magnetic and electrical properties, thus improving their usability in the future technological challenges.

RNA control of reverse transcription in a diversity-generating retroelement.

Diversity-generating retroelements (DGRs) create massive protein sequence variation (up to 10) in ecologically diverse microorganisms. A recent survey identified around 31,000 DGRs from more than 1,500 bacterial and archaeal genera, constituting more than 90 environment types. DGRs are especially enriched in the human gut microbiome and nano-sized microorganisms that seem to comprise most microbial life and maintain DGRs despite reduced genomes.

Frying is one of the oldest cooking methods, widely used to prepare crispy and flavorful foods. However, a significant concern with fried foods is the high amount of oil absorption. The application of edible coatings is a common approach to reducing oil absorption in fried potatoes.

Existing studies have demonstrated the positive effects of nano-sized iron oxide on compost maturity, yet the impact of nano-sized iron oxide on phosphorus speciation and bacterial communities during the composting process remains unclear. In this study, pig manure and straw were used as raw materials, with biochar-supported nano-sized iron oxide (BC-FeONPs) as an additive and calcium peroxide (CaO) as a co-agent, to conduct an aerobic composting experiment with pig manure. Four treatments were tested: CK (control), F1 (1% BC-FeONPs), F2 (5% BC-FeONPs), and F3 (5% BC-FeONPs + 5% CaO).

Metal nanomaterials with unconventional phases have been recently developed with a variety of methods and exhibit novel and attractive properties such as high activities for various catalytic reactions and magnetic properties. In this review, we discuss the progress and the trends in strategies for synthesis, crystal structure, and properties of phase-controlled metal nanomaterials in terms of elements and the combination of alloys. We begin with a brief introduction of the anomalous phase behavior derived from the nanosize effect and general crystal structures observed in metal nanomaterials.

Herein, we report the precise control of molecular to supramolecular chirality induction at the single-molecule level just upon subtle modification in an achiral 'nano-size' trizinc(II) porphyrin trimer. A slight variation in the projection of the substituent at the periphery of the central porphyrin unit in a porphyrin trimer (host) resulted in pronounced changes in the interchromophoric arrangement, leading to distinct 'open' and 'closed' conformations. While 'open' form generates 'monomeric' complex with low CD amplitude, 'closed' form produces exclusive 'polymer' with large, amplified CD signal with opposite sign due to stronger intermolecular excitonic coupling.
