Aligned conjugated polymers standing upright.
Conjugated polymers have enormous potential as novel electronic materials that combine the electrical properties of semiconductors with the good mechanical strength and processing advantages of plastics. [ 1 , 2 ] Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than in the synthesis of conjugated heterocyclic polymers based on thiophene units or monomers. [ 3 ] Owing to their facile preparation, relativel...
متن کاملCaring and Full Moral Standing*
A being has moral standing if it or its interests matter intrinsically, to at least some degree, in the moral assessment of actions and events. For instance, animals can be said to have moral standing if, other things being equal, it is morally bad to intentionally cause their suffering. This essay focuses on a special kind of moral standing, what I will call “full moral standing” (FMS), associ...
متن کاملUpright standing graphene formation on substrates.
We propose integrating graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) onto a substrate in an upright position whereby they are chemically bound to the substrate at the basal edge. Extensive ab initio calculations show that both nickel (Ni)- and diamond-supported upright GNRs are feasible for synthesis and are mechanically robust. Moreover, the substrate-supported GNRs display electronic and magnetic properties ne...
متن کاملCan muscle stiffness alone stabilize upright standing?
A stiffness control model for the stabilization of sway has been proposed recently. This paper discusses two inadequacies of the model: modeling and empiric consistency. First, we show that the in-phase relation between the trajectories of the center of pressure and the center of mass is determined by physics, not by control patterns. Second, we show that physiological values of stiffness of th...
متن کاملThe Two Sources of Moral Standing
There are two primary traditions in philosophical theorizing about moral standing—one emphasizing Experience (the capacity to feel pain and pleasure) and one emphasizing Agency (complexity of cognition and lifestyle). In this article we offer an explanation for this divide: Lay judgments about moral standing depend importantly on two independent cues (Experience and Agency), and the two philoso...
