Sodium-ion battery cathodes Na2FeP<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub> and Na2MnP<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>

Na-ion batteries are currently the focus of significant research activity due to the relative abundance of sodium and its consequent cost advantages. Recently, the pyrophosphate family of cathodes has attracted considerable...

1064 nm laser-induced defects in pure SiO<sub>2</sub> fibers
We investigate evidence of the formation of nonbridging oxygen hole centers in pure silica photonic crystal fibers from 5 ps 1064 nm pulses. The formation of the defects is attributed to the breaking of stressed silicon-oxygen...

Identification of critical stacking faults in thin-film CdTe solar cells

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is a p-type semiconductor used in thin-film solar cells. To achieve high light-to-electricity conversion, annealing in the presence of CdCl2 is essential, but the underlying mechanism is...

The structure of the cysteine protease and lectin-like domains of Cwp84, a surface layer-associated protein from <em>Clostridium</em> <em>difficile</em>

Clostridium difficile is a major problem as an aetiological agent for antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. The mechanism by which the bacterium colonizes the gut during infection is poorly understood, but undoubtedly...

Femtosecond pulses at 20 GHz repetition rate through spectral masking of a phase modulated signal and nonlinear pulse compression
We present a laser system capable of producing 190 femtosecond pulses at a repetition rate of 20 GHz. The spectral masking of a phase modulated diode laser is used to produce a train of picosecond pulses which are compressed...
