Protein-protein Interfaces02:04

Protein-protein Interfaces

14.7K
Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a...

Lampbrush Chromosomes01:51

Lampbrush Chromosomes

8.7K
In 1882, Flemming observed lampbrush chromosomes (LBC) in salamander eggs. Later in 1892, Rückert observed LBCs in shark egg cells and coined the term "lampbrush chromosomes" because they looked like brushes used to clean kerosene lamps.
LBCs are made up of two pairs of conjugating homologous chromatids. Each chromatid consists of alternatively positioned regions of condensed-inactive chromatin and loosely placed-active side loops, which can be contracted and extended. The loops...

Polytene Chromosomes02:04

Polytene Chromosomes

11.0K
Polytene chromosomes are giant interphase chromosomes with several DNA strands placed side by side. They were discovered in the year 1881 by Balbiani in salivary glands, intestine, muscles, malpighian tubules, and hypoderm of larvae Chironomus plumosus. Hence, these are also called "Salivary gland chromosomes." These are found in insects of the order Diptera and Collembola; in certain organs of mammals; and synergids, antipodes of flowering plants. Polytene chromosomes are also...

Light Acquisition02:16

Light Acquisition

9.6K
In order to produce glucose, plants need to capture sufficient light energy. Many modern plants have evolved leaves specialized for light acquisition. Leaves can be only millimeters in width or tens of meters wide, depending on the environment. Due to competition for sunlight, evolution has driven the evolution of increasingly larger leaves and taller plants, to avoid shading by their neighbors with contaminant elaboration of root architecture and mechanisms to transport water and nutrients.

Cohesion01:07

Cohesion

59.4K
Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same type, such as water molecules. Water molecules have an overall neutral charge but are polar molecule. An oxygen atom in one water molecule has a partial negative charge that can bind to a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge in a second water molecule, forming a hydrogen bond. Each water molecule can form up to four hydrogen bonds with other water molecules. Hydrogen bonds are responsible for water's cohesive nature.
On a...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Multiferroic heterostructures are key for spintronic devices like electrical-write/magnetic-read memories.
  • Conventional heterostructures exhibit weak magnetoelectric coupling (MEC), limiting device performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore a novel pathway for achieving strong MEC at interfaces.
  • To investigate the potential of graphone/ferroelectric heterostructures for advanced spintronics.

Main Methods:

  • First-principles calculations were employed to simulate and analyze the heterostructure.
  • The study focused on the interface between semi-hydrogenated graphene (graphone) and ferroelectric PbTiO3.

Main Results:

  • A strong MEC was demonstrated at the graphone/PbTiO3 interface.
  • Electrical switching of graphone magnetization was achieved by reversing PbTiO3 polarization via altered carbon-oxygen bonding.
  • Ferroelectric polarization was preserved in ultrathin PbTiO3 layers (<1 nm).

Conclusions:

  • The findings present a new route to achieve significant MEC in ultrathin graphone/ferroelectric layers.
  • This opens opportunities for electric control of magnetism in high-density spintronic devices.
