Harnessing peptide–cellulose interactions to tailor the performance of self-assembled, injectable hydrogels

Taking inspiration from natural systems, such as spider silk and mollusk nacre, that employ hierarchical assembly to attain robust material performance, we leveraged matrix–filler interactions within reinforced polymer–peptide hybrids to create self-assembled hydrogels with enhanced properties. Specifically, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were incorporated into peptide–polyurea (PPU) hybrid matrices to tailor key hydrogel features through matrix–filler interactions. Herein, we examined the impact of peptide repeat length and CNC loading on hydrogelation, morphology, mechanics, and thermal behavior of PPU/CNC composite hydrogels. The addition of CNCs into PPU hydrogels resulted in increased gel stiffness; however, the extent of reinforcement of the nanocomposite gels upon nanofiller inclusion also was driven by PPU architecture. Temperature-promoted stiffening transitions observed in nanocomposite PPU hydrogels were dictated by peptide segment length. Analysis of the peptide secondary structure confirmed shifts in the conformation of peptidic domains (α-helices or β-sheets) upon CNC loading. Finally, PPU/CNC hydrogels were probed for their injectability characteristics, demonstrating that nanofiller–matrix interactions were shown to aid rapid network reformation (∼10 s) upon cessation of high shear forces. Overall, this research showcases the potential of modulating matrix–filler interactions within PPU/CNC hydrogels through strategic system design, enabling the tuning of functional hydrogel characteristics for diverse applications.

Recent efforts of vapour-phase strategies for EUV resist toward high- and hyper-NA extreme ultraviolet lithography

Extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL, λ = 13.5 nm) is critical for sub-1 nm technology nodes but remains constrained by inherent trade-offs among resolution, line-edge roughness (LER), and sensitivity. Stochastic effects originating from photon shot noise, low-energy secondary electron blur, and the random distribution of resist components further limit its advancement toward high numerical-aperture (NA, NA = 0.55) and hyper-NA (NA ≥0.75) EUVL. While the optimization of spin-on chemically amplified resists (CARs) continues, metal-oxide resists (MORs) have emerged as strong candidates for next-generation EUVL by incorporating metals with high EUV absorption coefficients, which enhances both resist sensitivity and etch resistance during pattern transfer. Besides spin-coating, recent advances in vapour-phase techniques, such as vapour-phase infiltration (VPI), chemical vapour deposition (CVD), and molecular atomic layer deposition (MALD), offer promising pathways to achieve new resist platforms, such as dry resists, that satisfy the stringent thickness and uniformity requirements of next-generation EUVL. These methods enable the direct incorporation of metal species into existing resist matrices or the formation of hybrid inorganic–organic resist platforms, thereby improving film uniformity, etch durability, and pattern fidelity while mitigating stochastic defects. This review highlights the latest advancements in vapour-phase-synthesized EUV resists, emphasizing material design, lithographic performance, and the underlying exposure mechanisms. Although still emerging, vapour-phase strategies are paving the way for an all-dry integration framework that could improve EUV patterning workflows and meet the demands of future technology nodes.

BEYONDPLANCK X. Planck Low Frequency Instrument frequency maps with sample-based error propagation

We present Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) frequency sky maps derived within the BEYONDPLANCK framework. This framework draws samples from a global posterior distribution that includes instrumental, astrophysical, and cosmological parameters, and the main product is an entire ensemble of frequency sky map samples, each of which corresponds to one possible realization of the various modeled instrumental systematic corrections, including correlated noise, time-variable gain, as well as far sidelobe and bandpass corrections. This ensemble allows for computationally convenient end-to-end propagation of low-level instrumental uncertainties into higher-level science products, including astrophysical component maps, angular power spectra, and cosmological parameters. We show that the two dominant sources of LFI instrumental systematic uncertainties are correlated noise and gain fluctuations, and the products presented here support – for the first time – full Bayesian error propagation for these effects at full angular resolution. We compared our posterior mean maps with traditional frequency maps delivered by the Planck Collaboration, and find generally good agreement. The most important quality improvement is due to significantly lower calibration uncertainties in the new processing, as we find a fractional absolute calibration uncertainty at 70 GHz of Δg 0 /g 0 = 5 x 10 -5 , which is nominally 40 times smaller than that reported by Planck 2018. However, we also note that the original Planck 2018 estimate has a nontrivial statistical interpretation, and this further illustrates the advantage of the new framework in terms of producing self-consistent and well-defined error estimates of all involved quantities without the need of ad hoc uncertainty contributions. We describe how low-resolution data products, including dense pixel-pixel covariance matrices, may be produced from the posterior samples directly, without the need for computationally expensive analytic calculations or simulations. We conclude that posterior-based frequency map sampling provides unique capabilities in terms of low-level systematics modeling and error propagation, and may play an important role for future Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) B-mode experiments aiming at nanokelvin precision.

The Carnegie Supernova Project I: Spectroscopic analysis of stripped-envelope supernovae

An analysis leveraging 170 optical spectra of 35 stripped-envelope (SE) core-collapse supernovae (SNe) observed by the Carnegie Supernova Project I and published in a companion paper is presented. Mean template spectra were constructed for the SNe IIb, Ib, and Ic subtypes, and parent ions associated with designated spectral features are identified with the aid of the spectral synthesis code SYNAPPS. Our modeled mean spectra suggest the ~6150 Å feature in SNe IIb may have an underlying contribution due to silicon, while the same feature in some SNe Ib may have an underlying contribution due to hydrogen. Standard spectral line diagnostics consisting of pseudo-equivalent widths (pEWs) and blue-shifted Doppler velocity were measured for each of the spectral features. Correlation matrices and rolling mean values of both spectral diagnostics were constructed. A principle component analysis (PCA) was applied to various wavelength ranges of the entire dataset and suggests clear separation among the different SE SN subtypes, which follows from trends previously identified in the literature. In addition, our findings reveal the presence of two SNe IIb subtypes, a select number of SNe Ib displaying signatures of weak, high-velocity hydrogen, and a single SN Ic with evidence of weak helium features. Our PCA results can be leveraged to obtain robust subtyping of SE SNe based on a single spectrum taken during the so-called photospheric phase, separating SNe IIb from SNe Ib with ~80% completion.

A road map to cosmological parameter analysis with third-order shear statistics: III. Efficient estimation of third-order shear correlation functions and an application to the KiDS-1000 data

Context. Third-order lensing statistics contain a wealth of cosmological information that is not captured by second-order statistics. However, the computational effort it takes to estimate such statistics in forthcoming stage IV surveys is prohibitively expensive. Aims. We derive and validate an efficient estimation procedure for the three-point correlation function (3PCF) of polar fields such as weak lensing shear. We then use our approach to measure the shear 3PCF and the third-order aperture mass statistics on the KiDS-1000 survey. Methods We constructed an efficient estimator for third-order shear statistics that builds on the multipole decomposition of the 3PCF. We then validated our estimator on mock ellipticity catalogs obtained from N -body simulations. Finally, we applied our estimator to the KiDS-1000 data and presented a measurement of the third-order aperture statistics in a tomographic setup. Results. Our estimator provides a speedup of a factor of ∼100–1000 compared to the state-of-the-art estimation procedures. It is also able to provide accurate measurements for squeezed and folded triangle configurations without additional computational effort. We report a significant detection of tomographic third-order aperture mass statistics in the KiDS-1000 data (S/N = 6.69). Conclusions. Our estimator will make it computationally feasible to measure third-order shear statistics in forthcoming stage IV surveys. Furthermore, it can be used to construct empirical covariance matrices for such statistics.

Analysis of static Wilson line correlators from lattice QCD at finite temperature with T -matrix approach

The thermodynamic T-matrix approach is used to study Wilson line correlators (WLCs) for a static quark-antiquark pair in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Selfconsistent results that incorporate constraints from the QGP equation of state can approximately reproduce WLCs computed in 2+1-flavor lattice-QCD (lQCD), provided the input potential exhibits less screening than in previous studies. Utilizing the updated potential to calculate pertinent heavylight T-matrices we evaluate thermal relaxation rates of heavy quarks in the QGP. We find a more pronounced temperature dependence for low-momentum quarks than in our previous results (with larger screening), which turns into a weaker temperature dependence of the (temperature-scaled) spatial diffusion coefficient, in fair agreement with the most recent lQCD data.

Radiation characterization summary of the NETL beam port 1/5 free-field environment at the 128-inch core centerline adjacent location

The characterization of the neutron, prompt gamma-ray, and delayed gamma-ray radiation fields in the University of Texas at Austin Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory (NETL) TRIGA reactor for the beam port (BP) 1/5 free-field environment at the 128-inch location adjacent to the core centerline has been accomplished. NETL is being explored as an auxiliary neutron test facility for the Sandia National Laboratories radiation effects sciences research and development campaigns. The NETL reactor is a TRIGA Mark-II pulse and steady-state, above-ground pool-type reactor. NETL is intended as a university research reactor typically used to perform irradiation experiments for students and customers, radioisotope production, as well as a training reactor. Initial criticality of the NETL TRIGA reactor was achieved on March 12, 1992, making it one of the newest test reactor facilities in the US. The neutron energy spectra, uncertainties, and covariance matrices are presented as well as a neutron fluence map of the experiment area of the cavity. For an unmoderated condition, the neutron fluence at the center of BP 1/5, at the adjacent core axial centerline, is about 8.2×10 12 n/cm 2 per MJ of reactor energy. About 67% of the neutron fluence is below 1 keV and 22% above 100 keV. The 1-MeV Damage-Equivalent Silicon (DES) fluence is roughly 1.6×10 12 n/cm 2 per MJ of reactor energy.

Structure and dynamics of ethane confined in silica nanopores in the presence of CO 2

Fundamental understanding of the subcritical/supercritical behavior of key hydrocarbon species inside nano-porous matrices at elevated pressure and temperature is less developed compared to bulk fluids, but this knowledge is of great importance for chemical and energy engineering industries. This study explores in detail the structure and dynamics of ethane (C 2 H 6 ) fluid confined in silica nanopores, with a focus on the effects of pressure and different ratios of C 2 H 6 and CO 2 at non-ambient temperature. Quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) experiments were carried out for the pure C 2 H 6 , C 2 H 6 :CO 2 = 3:1, and 1:3 mixed fluids confined in 4-nm cylindrical silica pores at three different pressures (30 bars, 65 bars, and 100 bars) at 323 K. Two Lorentzian functions were required to fit the spectra, corresponding to fast and slow translational motions. No localized motions (rotations and vibrations) were detected. Higher pressures resulted in hindrances of the diffusivity of C 2 H 6 molecules in all systems investigated. Pore size was found to be an important factor, i.e., the dynamics of confined C 2 H 6 is more restricted in smaller pores compared to the larger pores used in previous studies. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to complement the QENS experiment at 65 bars, providing supportive structure information and comparable dynamic information. The simulations indicate that CO 2 molecules are more strongly attracted to the pore surface compared to C 2 H 6 . The C 2 H 6 molecules interacting with or near the pore surface form a dense first layer (L1) close to the pore surface and a second less dense layer (L2) extending into the pore center. Both the experiments and simulations revealed the role that CO 2 molecules play in enhancing C 2 H 6 diffusion (“molecular lubrication”) at high CO 2 :C 2 H 6 ratios. The energy scales of the two dynamic components, fast and slow, quantified by both techniques, are in very good agreement. Herein, the simulations identified the fast component as the main contributor to the dynamics. Molecule motions in the L2 region are mostly responsible for the dynamics (fast and slow) that can be detected by the instrument.

Correlation between the temperature evolution of the interfacial region and the growing dynamic cooperativity length scale

Here, we study experimentally the temperature evolution of the thickness of the interfacial layer, L int (T), between bulk matrices and the surface of nanoparticles in nanocomposites through broadband dielectric spectroscopy. Analyses revealed a power-law dependence between the logarithm of structural relaxation time in the interfacial layer, τ int (T), and the L int (T): ln τ i n t ( T ) / τ 0 ∝ L i n t β ( T ) / T , with τ 0 ~ 10 –12 s, and β index ~0.67 at high temperatures and ~1.7 at temperatures close to the glass transition temperature. In addition, our analysis revealed that the L int (T) is comparable to the length scale of dynamic heterogeneity estimated from previous nonlinear dielectric measurements and the four-point NMR [ξ NMR (T)], with L int (T) ~ ξ NMR (T). These observations may suggest a direct correlation between the L int (T) and the size of the cooperatively rearranging regions and have strong implications for understanding the dynamic heterogeneity and cooperativity in supercool liquids and their role in interfacial dynamics.

Room temperature multiferroicity and magnetodielectric coupling in 0–3 composite thin films

Magnetoelectric (ME) composite thin films are promising candidates for novel applications in future nanoelectronics, spintronics, memory and other multifunctional devices as they exhibit much higher ME coupling and transition temperatures (Tc) than well-known single phase multiferroics discovered to date. Among the three types of multiferroic composite nanostructures, (2-2) layered and (1-3) vertically aligned composite nanostructures exhibit comparatively smaller ME coupling due to different shortcomings which restrict their use in many applications. Here we study the morphological, piezoresponse force microscopic (PFM), ferroelectric, magnetic, and magnetodielectric properties of 0-3 (magnetic nanoparticles (0) homogeneously distributed in ferroelectric matrices (3)) multiferroic composite thin films. The Pb(Fe 0.5 Nb 0.5 )O 3 (PFN) - Ni 0.65 Zn 0.35 Fe 2 O 4 (NZFO) particulate composite films were synthesized by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). These particulate composite thin films are completely c-axis oriented with very low surface roughness. We observed magnetic and ferroelectric T c above room temperature (RT) for all composite thin films. The PFN-NZFO 0-3 composites exhibit large polarization, high saturated magnetization with low coercive field, low dielectric loss along with magnetodielectric coupling at RT. These nanocomposites might be utilized in next generation nano/microelectronics and spintronic devices.

Equation-of-motion coupled-cluster method with double electron-attaching operators: Theory, implementation, and benchmarks

We report a production-level implementation of the equation-of-motion (EOM) coupled-cluster (CC) method with double electron-attaching (DEA) EOM operators of 2 p and 3 p 1 h types, EOM-DEA-CCSD. This ansatz, suitable for treating electronic structure patterns that can be described as two-electrons-in-many orbitals, represents a useful addition to the EOM-CC family of methods. We analyze the performance of EOM-DEA-CCSD for energy differences and molecular properties. By considering reduced quantities, such as state and transition one-particle density matrices, we compare EOM-DEA-CCSD wave functions with wave functions computed by other EOM-CCSD methods. The benchmarks illustrate that EOM-DEA-CCSD is capable of treating diradicals, bond-breaking, and some types of conical intersections.

Time evolution of ML-MCTDH wavefunctions. I. Gauge conditions, basis functions, and singularities

We derive a family of equations-of-motion (EOMs) for evolving multi-layer multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree (ML-MCTDH) wavefunctions that, unlike the standard ML-MCTDH EOMs, never require the evaluation of the inverse of singular matrices. All members of this family of EOMs make use of alternative static gauge conditions than those used for standard ML-MCTDH. These alternative conditions result in an expansion of the wavefunction in terms of a set of potentially arbitrary orthonormal functions, rather than in terms of a set of non-orthonormal and potentially linearly dependent functions, as is the case for standard ML-MCTDH. We show that the EOMs used in the projector splitting integrator (PSI) and the invariant EOM approaches are two special cases of this family obtained from different choices for the dynamic gauge condition, with the invariant EOMs making use of a choice that introduces potentially unbounded operators into the EOMs. As a consequence, all arguments for the existence of parallelizable integration schemes for the invariant EOMs can also be applied to the PSI EOMs.

Dynamics of photosynthetic light harvesting systems interacting with N-photon Fock states

Here, we develop a method to simulate the excitonic dynamics of realistic photosynthetic light harvesting systems, including non-Markovian coupling to phonon degrees of freedom, under excitation by N-photon Fock state pulses. This method combines the input–output and the hierarchical equations of motion formalisms into a double hierarchy of density matrix equations. We show analytically that under weak field excitation relevant to natural photosynthesis conditions, an N-photon Fock state input and a corresponding coherent state input give rise to equal density matrices in the excited manifold. However, an N-photon Fock state input induces no off-diagonal coherence between the ground and excited subspaces, in contrast with the coherences created by a coherent state input. We derive expressions for the probability to absorb a single Fock state photon with or without the influence of phonons. For short pulses (or, equivalently, wide bandwidth pulses), we show that the absorption probability has a universal behavior that depends only upon a system-dependent effective energy spread parameter Δ and an exciton–light coupling constant Γ. This holds for a broad range of chromophore systems and for a variety of pulse shapes. We also analyze the absorption probability in the opposite long pulse (narrow bandwidth) regime. We then derive an expression for the long time emission rate in the presence of phonons and use it to study the difference between collective vs independent emission. Finally, we present a numerical simulation for the LHCII monomer (14-mer) system under single photon excitation that illustrates the use of the double hierarchy equations.

Assessing MP2 frozen natural orbitals in relativistic correlated electronic structure calculations

The high computational scaling with the basis set size and the number of correlated electrons is a bottleneck limiting applications of coupled cluster algorithms, in particular for calculations based on two- or four-component relativistic Hamiltonians, which often employ uncontracted basis sets. This problem may be alleviated by replacing canonical Hartree–Fock virtual orbitals by natural orbitals (NOs). Here, in this paper, we describe the implementation of a module for generating NOs for correlated wavefunctions and, in particular, second order Møller–Plesset perturbation frozen natural orbitals (MP2FNOs) as a component of our novel implementation of relativistic coupled cluster theory for massively parallel architectures [Pototschnig et al. J. Chem. Theory Comput. 17, 5509, (2021)]. Our implementation can manipulate complex or quaternion density matrices, thus allowing for the generation of both Kramers-restricted and Kramers-unrestricted MP2FNOs. Furthermore, NOs are re-expressed in the parent atomic orbital (AO) basis, allowing for generating coupled cluster singles and doubles NOs in the AO basis for further analysis. By investigating the truncation errors of MP2FNOs for both the correlation energy and molecular properties—electric field gradients at the nuclei, electric dipole and quadrupole moments for hydrogen halides HX (X = F–Ts), and parity-violating energy differences for H 2 Z 2 (Z = O–Se)—we find MP2FNOs accelerate the convergence of the correlation energy in a roughly uniform manner across the Periodic Table. It is possible to obtain reliable estimates for both energies and the molecular properties considered with virtual molecular orbital spaces truncated to about half the size of the full spaces.

ATEQ: Adaptive toroidal equilibrium code

A radially adaptive numerical scheme is developed to solve the Grad–Shafranov equation for axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium. Here, a decomposition with independent solutions is employed in the radial direction, and Fourier decomposition is used in the poloidal direction. The independent solutions are then obtained using an adaptive shooting scheme together with the multi-region matching technique in the radial direction. Accordingly, the adaptive toroidal equilibrium (ATEQ) code is constructed for axisymmetric equilibrium studies. The adaptive numerical scheme in the radial direction improves considerably the accuracy of the equilibrium solution. The decomposition with independent solutions effectively reduces the matrix size in solving the magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium problem. The reduction of the matrix size is about an order of magnitude as compared with the conventional radially grid-based numerical schemes. Also, in this ATEQ numerical scheme, no matter how accuracy in the radial direction is imposed, the size of matrices basically does not change. The small matrix size scheme gives ATEQ more flexibility to address the requirement of the number of Fourier components in the poloidal direction in tough equilibrium problems. These two unique features, the adaptive shooting and small matrix size, make ATEQ useful to improve tokamak equilibrium solutions.

Toward more accurate adiabatic connection approach for multireference wavefunctions

A multiconfigurational adiabatic connection (AC) formalism is an attractive approach to compute the dynamic correlation within the complete active space self-consistent field and density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) models. Practical realizations of AC have been based on two approximations: (i) fixing one- and two-electron reduced density matrices (1- and 2-RDMs) at the zero-coupling constant limit and (ii) extended random phase approximation (ERPA). This work investigates the effect of removing the “fixed-RDM” approximation in AC. The analysis is carried out for two electronic Hamiltonian partitionings: the group product function- and the Dyall Hamiltonians. Exact reference AC integrands are generated from the DMRG full configuration interaction solver. Two AC models are investigated, employing either exact 1- and 2-RDMs or their second-order expansions in the coupling constant in the ERPA equations. Calculations for model molecules indicate that lifting the fixed-RDM approximation is a viable way toward improving the accuracy of existing AC approximations.

Formation of the C 4 H n + ( n = 2–5) ions upon ionization of acetylene clusters in helium droplets

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy using ultracold helium nanodroplet matrices has proven to be a powerful method to interrogate encapsulated ions, molecules, and clusters. Due to the helium droplets’ high ionization potential, optical transparency, and ability to pick up dopant molecules, the droplets offer a unique modality to probe transient chemical species produced via photo- or electron impact ionization. Here, in this work, helium droplets were doped with acetylene molecules and ionized via electron impact. Ion-molecule reactions within the droplet volume yield larger carbo-cations that were studied via IR laser spectroscopy. This work is focused on cations containing four carbon atoms. The spectra of C 4 H 2 + , C 4 H 3 + , and C 4 H 5 + are dominated by diacetylene, vinylacetylene, and methylcyclopropene cations, respectively, which are the lowest energy isomers. On the other hand, the spectrum of C 4 H 4 + ions hints at the presence of several co-existing isomers, the identity of which remains to be elucidated.

Distributed memory, GPU accelerated Fock construction for hybrid, Gaussian basis density functional theory

With the growing reliance of modern supercomputers on accelerator-based architecture such a graphics processing units (GPUs), the development and optimization of electronic structure methods to exploit these massively parallel resources has become a recent priority. While significant strides have been made in the development GPU accelerated, distributed memory algorithms for many modern electronic structure methods, the primary focus of GPU development for Gaussian basis atomic orbital methods has been for shared memory systems with only a handful of examples pursing massive parallelism. Here in this work, we present a set of distributed memory algorithms for the evaluation of the Coulomb and exact exchange matrices for hybrid Kohn–Sham DFT with Gaussian basis sets via direct density-fitted (DF-J-Engine) and seminumerical (sn-K) methods, respectively. The absolute performance and strong scalability of the developed methods are demonstrated on systems ranging from a few hundred to over one thousand atoms using up to 128 NVIDIA A100 GPUs on the Perlmutter supercomputer.
