Synthesizing Iron Atom Doped Carbon Nanotubes by Elguja R Kutelia, Ayten S Bakhtiyarova, Sayavur I Bakhtiyarov

“…Iron nanoparticles tend to agglomerate due to their strong magnetic interactions and high surface energy, resulting in inhomogeneous doping that diminishes the effectiveness of the composite in applications like electromagnetic shielding, catalysis, or energy storage. To mitigate this, controlled synthesis techniques such as Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) with regulated precursor flow rates or solution-based methods with surfactants can be utilized. …”

From density functional theory to machine learning predictive models for electrical properties of spinel oxides by Yuval Elbaz, Maytal Caspary Toroker

“…Abstract This work focuses on predicting and characterizing the electronic conductivity of spinel oxides, which are promising materials for energy storage devices and for the oxygen evolution and oxygen reduction reactions due to their attractive properties and abundance of transition metals that can act as active sites for catalysis. To this end, a new database was developed from first principles, including band structure and conductivity properties of spinel oxides, and machine learning algorithms were trained on this database to predict electronic conductivity and band gaps based solely on the compositions. …”

An adenosine analog shows high antiviral potency against coronavirus and arenavirus mainly through an unusual base pairing mode by Xiaoying Jia, Xuping Jing, Ming Li, Minli Gao, Yao Zhong, Entao Li, Yang Liu, Rui Li, Guoqiang Yao, Qiaojie Liu, Minmin Zhou, Yuxia Hou, Linfeng An, Yibao Hong, Shanshan Li, Jiancun Zhang, Wei Wang, Kaiming Zhang, Peng Gong, Sandra Chiu

“…Enzymology data demonstrate that HNC-1664 inhibits RNA synthesis mainly at the pre-catalysis stage. The cryo-EM structures of HNC-1664-bound RdRP-RNA complexes from both SARS-CoV-2 and LASV reveal an unusual base pairing mode of HNC-1664 in part due to its base modification, thus revealing its great potency in binding but not catalysis. …”
