Open AccessMolecular molds for regularizing Kondo states at atom/metal interfaces
Adsorption of magnetic transition metal atoms on a metal surface leads to the formation of Kondo states at the atom/metal interfaces. However, the significant influence of surrounding environment presents chal...

Open AccessReaction selectivity of homochiral versus heterochiral intermolecular reactions of prochiral terminal alkynes on surfaces
Controlling selectivity between homochiral and heterochiral reaction pathways on surfaces remains a great challenge. Here, competing reactions of a prochiral alkyne on Ag(111): two-dimensional (2D) homochiral ...

Open AccessSurface Landau levels and spin states in bismuth (111) ultrathin films
The development of next-generation electronics is much dependent on the discovery of materials with exceptional surface-state spin and valley properties. Because of that, bismuth has attracted a renewed intere...

Correlating interfacial octahedral rotations with magnetism in (LaMnO3+δ)N/(SrTiO3)N superlattices
Lattice distortion due to oxygen octahedral rotations have a significant role in mediating the magnetism in oxides, and recently attracts a lot of interests in the study of complex oxides interface. However, t...

Open AccessRole of point defects on the reactivity of reconstructed anatase titanium dioxide (001) surface
The chemical reactivity of different surfaces of titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been the subject of extensive studies in recent decades. The anatase TiO2(001) and its (1 × 4) reconstructed surfaces were theoreticall...

Fragments of Comet Hyakutake (C/1996 B2)
Several fragments of Comet Hyakutake were observed in March and April of 1996. This leads to the impression that the splitting of Comet Hyakutake on a small scale occurred frequently. Data analysis points to a...
