In this work, highly active manganese oxide nano-catalysts were …             Intrinsically Disordered Energy Landscapes ▶     Yassmine Chebaro, Andrew J. Ballard, Debayan Chakraborty et al.     Analysis of an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) reveals an underlying multifunnel structure for the energy landscape. We suggest that such ‘intrinsically disordered’ …             Reactively sputtered nickel nitride as electrocatalytic counter electrode for dye- and quantum dot-sensitized solar cells ▶     Jin Soo Kang, Min-Ah Park, Jae-Yup Kim et al.     Nickel nitride electrodes were prepared by reactive sputtering of nickel under a N2 atmosphere at room temperature for application in mesoscopic dye- or quantum dot- sensitized …             Sandwiched confinement of quantum dots in graphene matrix for efficient electron transfer and photocurrent production ▶     Nan Zhu, Kaibo Zheng, Khadga J. Karki et al.     Quantum dots (QDs) and graphene are both promising materials for the development of new-generation optoelectronic devices. Towards this end, synergic assembly of these two …             Effect of Au nano-particle aggregation on the deactivation of the AuCl3/AC catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination ▶     Bin Dai, Qinqin Wang, Feng Yu et al.     A detailed study of the valence state and distribution of the AuCl3/AC catalyst during the acetylene hydrochlorination deactivation process is described and discussed. …             Bridge- and Solvent-Mediated Intramolecular Electronic Communications in Ubiquinone-Based Biomolecular Wires ▶     Xiao-Yuan Liu, Wei Ma, Hao Zhou et al.     Intramolecular electronic communications of molecular wires play a crucial role for developing molecular devices. In the present work, we describe different degrees of …             Opening of triangular hole in triangular-shaped chemical vapor deposited hexagonal boron nitride crystal ▶     Subash Sharma, Golap Kalita, Riteshkumar Vishwakarma et al.     In-plane heterostructure of monolayer hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and graphene is of great interest for its tunable bandgap and other unique properties. Here, we reveal a H2…             Direct Visualization of the Hydration Layer on Alumina Nanoparticles with the Fluid Cell STEM in situ ▶     Emre Firlar, Simge Çınar, Sanjay Kashyap et al.     Rheological behavior of aqueous suspensions containing nanometer-sized powders is of relevance to many branches of industry. Unusually high viscosities observed for suspensions of …             Pressure-induced normal-incommensurate and incommensurate-commensurate phase transitions in CrOCl ▶     Maxim Bykov, Elena Bykova, Leonid Dubrovinsky et al.     The high-pressure behavior of layered CrOCl is shown to be governed by non-bonded interactions between chlorine atoms in relation to a rigid framework composed of Cr and O atoms. …             MoS2 Surface Structure Tailoring via Carbonaceous Promoter ▶     Yumeng Shi, Henan Li, Jen It Wong et al.     Atomically thin semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides have been attracting lots of attentions, particularly, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) monolayers show promising …             Novel rare-earth-free yellow Ca5Zn3.92In0.08(V0.99Ta0.01O4)6 phosphors for dazzling white light-emitting diodes ▶     E. Pavitra, G. Seeta Rama Raju, Jin Young Park et al.     White light-emitting diode (WLED) products currently available on the market are based on the blue LED combined with yellow phosphor approach. However, these WLEDs are still …             Bauxite-supported Transition Metal Oxides: Promising Low-temperature and SO2-tolerant Catalysts for Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx ▶     Xiuyun Wang, Wen Wu, Zhilin Chen et al.     In order to develop low-temperature (below 200 °C) and SO2-tolerant catalysts for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx, a series of cheap M/bauxite (M=Mn, Ni and Cu) …             New ambuic acid derivatives from the solid culture of Pestalotiopsis neglecta and their nitric oxide inhibitory activity ▶     Qiu-Yue Qi, Er-Wei Li, Jun-Jie Han et al.     Four new ambuic acid derivatives (1–4), and four known derivatives (5–8), were isolated from the solid culture of a plant pathogenic fungus Pestalotiopsis neglecta. Their …             An embryo of protocells: The capsule of graphene with selective ion channels ▶     Zhan Li, Chunmei Wang, Longlong Tian et al.     The synthesis of artificial cell is a route for searching the origin of protocell. Here, we create a novel cell model of graphene capsules with selective ion channels, indicating …                     • Careers & Jobs           naturejobs.com Science jobs of the week       Postdoctoral Fellow     Thomas Jefferson University (TJU)            Vandervell Postdoctoral Fellowship     University of Exeter            Research Assistant / Associate x 2 (Fixed Term)     University of Cambridge            Postdoctoral Associates     MIT            Postdoctoral Researcher     NUI Galway            Research Assistant / Associate     University of Glasgow            Post-Doctoral Research Associate     Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center            Group Leader Positions     Medical Research Council            Postdoc Position     Hannover Medical School (MHH)            Postdoctoral Fellow     University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences          No matter what your career stage, student, postdoc or senior scientist, you will find articles on naturejobs.com to help guide you in your science career.
