Structural phase transition and bandgap control through mechanical deformation in layered semiconductors 1T–ZrX2 (X = S, Se)

Martino, Edoardo ; Santos-Cottin, David ; Le Mardelé, Florian ; Semeniuk, Konstantin ; Pizzochero, Michele ; Čerņevičs, Kristia̅ns ; Baptiste, Benoît ; Delbes, Ludovic ; Klotz, Stefan ; Capitani, Francesco ; Berger, Helmuth ; Yazyev, Oleg V. ; Akrap, Ana

In: ACS Materials Letters, 2020, vol. 2, no. 9, p. 1115–1120

Applying elastic deformation can tune a material’s physical properties locally and reversibly. Spatially modulated lattice deformation can create a bandgap gradient, favoring photogenerated charge separation and collection in optoelectronic devices. These advantages are hindered by the maximum elastic strain that a material can withstand before breaking. Nanomaterials derived by exfoliating...

The bright side of sound: perspectives on the biomedical application of sonoluminescence

Canaparo, Roberto ; Foglietta, Federica ; Giuntini, Francesca ; Francovich, Andrea ; Serpe, Loredana

Light is a physical phenomenon that is very important to human life, and has been investigated in its nature, behaviour and properties throughout human history although the most impressive improvements in the use of light in human activities, and of course in medicine, began just two centuries ago. However, despite the enormous progress in diagnosis, therapy and surgery to assess health and...

Potential future lakes from continued glacier shrinkage in the Aosta Valley Region (Western Alps, Italy)

Viani, Cristina ; Machguth, Horst ; Huggel, Christian ; Godio, Alberto ; Franco, Diego ; Perotti, Luigi ; Giardino, Marco

In: Geomorphology, 2020, vol. 355, p. 107068

Aosta Valley (Western Alps, Italy) is the region with the largest glacierized area of Italy. Like other high mountain regions, it has shown a significant glacier retreat starting from the end of the ‘Little Ice Age’ that is expected to continue in the future. As a direct consequence of glacier shrinkage, glacier-bed overdeepenings become exposed, offering suitable geomorphological ...

The role of smart meters in enabling real-time energy services for households : the Italian case

Pitì, Alessandro ; Verticale, Giacomo ; Rottondi, Cristina ; Capone, Antonio ; Lo Schiavo, Luca

In: Energies, 2017, vol. 10, no. 2, p. 199

The Smart Meter (SM) is an essential tool for successful balancing the demand-offer energy curve. It allows the linking of the consumption and production measurements with the time information and the customer’s identity, enabling the substitution of flat-price billing with smarter solutions, such as Time-of-Use or Real-Time Pricing. In addition to sending data to the energy operators for...

Insights into the effect of the G245S single point mutation on the structure of p53 and the binding of the protein to DNA

Lepre, Marco Gaetano ; Omar, Sara Ibrahim ; Grasso, Gianvito ; Morbiducci, Umberto ; Deriu, Marco Agostino ; Tuszynski, Jack A.

In: Molecules, 2017, vol. 22, no. 8, p. 1358

The transcription factor p53 is a potent tumor suppressor dubbed as the “guardian of the genome” because of its ability to orchestrate protective biological outputs in response to a variety of oncogenic stresses. Mutation and thus inactivation of p53 can be found in 50% of human tumors. The majority are missense mutations located in the DNA binding region. Among them, G245S is known to be...

Conformational dynamics and stability of U-shaped and S-shaped amyloid β assemblies

Alzheimer’s disease is the most fatal neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the aggregation and deposition of Amyloid β (Aβ) oligomers in the brain of patients. Two principal variants of Aβ exist in humans: Aβ1–40 and Aβ1–42. The former is the most abundant in the plaques, while the latter is the most toxic species and forms fibrils more rapidly. Interestingly, fibrils of...
