By applying the nonequilibrium Green's functions and the density-functional theory, we investigate the electronic structures and transport properties of fluorinated zigzag-edged boron nitride nanoribbons. The results show that the transition between half-metal and semiconductor in zigzag-edged boron nitride nanoribbons can be realized by fluorination at different sites or by the change of the f...

Adsorption of CO2 on the surface of Single-wall zigzag (5,0) and armchair (4,4) carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were studied through using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Optimizations of geometric were performed at the B3PW91 level of 6-311++G** method standard basis set using GAUSSIAN 03 package of program [1]. Structural models were optimized and adsorption energies, band gap, charge...

Animals sometimes take sinuous paths to a goal. Insects, tracking an odor trail on the ground [1-3] or moving up an odor plume in the air [4, 5], generally follow zigzag paths. Some insects [6-8] take a zigzag approach to visual targets, perhaps to obtain parallax information. How does an animal keep its overall path in the direction of the goal without disrupting a zigzag pattern? We describe ...

There are actually many different zigzag theorems. We will discuss two different zigzag theorems. We will begin with Isbell’s zigzag theorem, which is a an algebraic result involving semigroups and dominions. Then we will also discuss zigzags between two circles, an ergodic result, which is a closure theorem, similar to Poncelet’s porism and Steiner’s porism. We will then mention a general theo...

[Objective] This study investigated the applicability of a 3-m zigzag walk test for the prediction of falls and examined the relationships among fall history, the 3-m zigzag walk test, 10-m walk, and age. [Subjects] A total of 50 elderly individuals (23 males and 27 females) aged 65 and over, who were able to walk independently, were studied. [Methods] Four poles made of PET bottles were placed...

Graphyne, a two-dimensional carbon allotrope like graphene but containing doubly and triply bonded carbon atoms, has been proven to possess amazing electronic properties as graphene. Although the electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of graphyne and graphyne nanoribbons (NRs) have been previously studied, their electron transport behaviors have not been understood. Here we report a com...

T cells navigate complex microenvironments to initiate and modulate antigen-specific immune responses. While recent intravital microscopy study revealed that migration of T cells were guided by various tissue microstructures containing unique nanoscale topographical structures, the effects of complex nanotopographical structures on the migration of T cells have not been systematically studied. ...

Geometrical structure, nuclear magnetic resonance (N1,1It) chemical shielding tensors, and chemical shiftsof silicon and carbon nucler are investigated for twn infinite size zigzag and armchair single-walled siliconcarbide nanotabes (SiCNTs). Geometrical structures of SieNTs, Sit bonds and bond angles of St and Cvertices in both zigzag and armchair nanotubes, Indicate that bond lengths are appr...
