On possible applications of media described by fractional-order models in electromagnetic cloaking
PublicationThe purpose of this paper is to open a scientific discussion on possible applications of media described by fractional-order (FO) models (FOMs) in electromagnetic cloaking. A 2-D cloak based on active sources and the surface equivalence theorem is simulated. It employs a medium described by FOM in communication with sources cancelling the scattered field. A perfect electromagnetic active cloak is thereby demonstrated with the use...

Thioamides and selenoamides with chirality solely due to hindered rotation about the C-N bond: enantioselective complexation with optically active hosts
PublicationBariera rotacji wokół wiązania C-N w tioamidach jest średnio o 3-5 kcal/mol wyższa niż w odpowiednich amidach, a w analogicznych selenoamidach wzrasta jeszcze o 1 kcal/mol. Dzięki temu związki te występują w dwu enancjomerycznych formach, których wzajemna przemiana zachodzi w wyniku rotacji wokół wiązań C-N. Bariera rotacji jest wystarczająco wysoka, aby można było podjąć próbę ich rozdziału na enancjomery w temperaturze pokojowej....
