In this study the highly ordered corneal nanonipple structure observed on the Mourning Cloak butterfly (Nymphalis antiopa) is analyzed with a particular emphasis on the high-angle grain-boundary-like defects that are observed between individual nanonipple crystals. It is shown that these grain boundaries are generated by rows of topological coordination defects, which create very specific misor...

separation and capture of carbon dioxide from the flue gas of power plants in order to reduceenvironmental damages has always been of interest to researchers. in this study, aqueous solution ofmethylamine was used as an absorbent for co2 capture. in order to study this reaction, densityfunctional theory (dft) was employed at the level of b3lyp/6-311++g(d,p) by using theconductor-like polarizabl...
