Thanks to the synergistic effect,the bimetallic catalysts show better catalytic activity than the single metal cat-alysts and become a focus of research in heterogeneous catalysis.In this study,we successfully prepare...
Previous theories of quasicrystal diffraction have called it “Bragg diffraction in Fibonacci sequence and 6 dimensions”. This is a misnomer, because quasicrystal diffraction is not in integral linear order n where n...
Einstein claimed Bohr’s theory is incomplete: “the wave function does not provide a complete description of the physical reality” [1]. Their views represent two physics in schism [2] [3]. Quanta are fundamental. Th...
Diffraction in quasicrystals is in irrational and geometric series with icosahedral point group symmetry. None of these features are allowed in Bragg diffraction, so a special theory is required. By means of a hierarc...

Although palladium(Pd)has gradually emerged as the most likely candidate to replace platinum(Pt)in the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR),the specific electronic structure of conventional Pd results in too strong Pd–O bi...
Diffraction in quasicrystals is in logarithmic order and icosahedral point group symmetry. Neither of these features are allowed in Bragg diffraction, so a special theory is required. The present work displays exact a...

Boron carbide (B4C) is a rhombic structure composed of icosahedra and atomic chains, which has an important application in armored materials. The application of B4C under super high pressure without failure is a hot s...
A set of discoveries are described that complete the structural model and diffraction theory for quasicrystals. The irrational diffraction indices critically oppose Bragg diffraction. We analyze them as partly rationa...
Thirty seven years after the discovery of quasicrystals, their diffraction is completely described by harmonization between the sine wave probe with hierarchic translational symmetry in a structure that is often calle...

In the controlled synthesis of noble metal nanostructures using wet-chemical methods, normally, metal salts/complexes are used as precursors, and surfactants/ligands are used to tune/stabilize the morphology of nanost...
