Engineering Magnetic Hybridization at Organic–Ferromagnetic Interfaces by C<sub>60</sub>-Adsorption-Induced Fe(001) Surface Reconstruction
Large
magnetoresistance has been reported for C<sub>60</sub>-based
vertical spin valves. But for the underlying organic–ferromagnetic
interfacial atomistic structures, both experimental and theoretical
works have assumed unreconstructed atomic structures for the <i>magnetic</i> surfaces, although organic molecule (e.g., fullerene
and thiolate) adsorption frequently induces <i>nonmagnetic</i> surfaces reconstruction. Here we report that C<sub>60</sub> adsorption
can induce a prototype ferromagnetic surface, Fe(001), reconstruction,
via thorough structural search from first-principles calculations.
We propose that Fe(001) surface reconstruction should already occur
under the reported annealing temperature in literature. Reconstruction
solidifies C<sub>60</sub>/Fe interface bonding and enhances C<sub>60</sub> spin-polarization. More importantly, only our reconstructed
structure can explain the experimental observation of an inversion
of C<sub>60</sub> spin-polarization around Fermi-level relative to
that of Fe substrate, which is attributed to the C<sub>60</sub> lowest
unoccupied molecular orbitals LUMO-derived states are shifted to Fermi
level by charge transfer and to the strong coupling in the reconstructed
structure. One could expect that surface reconstruction occur not
only at the C<sub>60</sub>/FeÂ(001) interface, but also at interfaces
of other molecule-magnetic metals. Hence our work offers a new pathway
to interface engineering, that is, via surface reconstruction to manipulate
spintronic properties and promote the field of interface-assisted
spintronics
Quantifying the effect of investors’ attention on stock market
<div><p>The investors’ attention has been extensively used to predict the stock market. Different from existing proxies of the investors’ attention, such as the <i>Google trends</i>, <i>Baidu index</i> (<i>BI</i>), we argue the collective attention from the stock trading platforms could reflect the investors’ attention more closely. By calculated <i>the increments of</i> <i>the attention volume</i> <i>for each stock</i> (<i>IAVS</i>) from the stock trading platforms, we investigate the effect of investors’ attention measured by the <i>IAVS</i> on the movement of the stock market. The experimental results for <i>Chinese Securities Index 100</i> (CSI100) show that the <i>BI</i> is significantly correlated with the returns of CSI100 at 1% significance level only in 2014. However, it should be emphasized that the correlation of the new proposed measure, namely <i>IAVS</i>, is significantly at 1% significance level in 2014 and 2015. It shows that the effect of the measure <i>IAVS</i> on the movement of the stock market is more stable and significant than <i>BI</i>. This study yields important invest implications and better understanding of collective investors’ attention.</p></div

The illustration of the correlation between the CSI100 returns and the investors’ attention measured by the <i>BI</i> and <i>IAVS</i> for the day.
<p>The subplots (a)-(c) show the time series of Z-score of the returns of CSI100, the <i>BI</i> and the measure <i>IAVS</i> respectively, from which one can find that the measure <i>IAVS</i> correlates with the returns of CSI100 more closely. The Z-score is calculated in the way <i>z</i> = (<i>x</i> − <i>μ</i>)/<i>σ</i>, where <i>x</i>, <i>μ</i> and <i>σ</i> denote the original, mean value and standard deviation. We only consider trading days of the stock market, so there is no data in weekends and holidays.</p
Palladium-Catalyzed Tandem Regioselective Oxidative Coupling from Indoles and Maleimides: One-Pot Synthesis of Indolopyrrolocarbazoles and Related Indolylmaleimides
An
efficient PdÂ(II)-catalyzed approach for the direct synthesis
of indoloÂ[3,2-<i>a</i>]ÂpyrroloÂ[3,4-<i>c</i>]Âcarbazole-6,8-diones
has been developed from both free and protected (NH) indoles and maleimides
via a regioselective tandem oxidative coupling reaction. The yields
are moderate to excellent. In addition, 2-substituted indoles are
suitable substrates in this protocol, leading to the formation of
indolylmaleimides. The present methodology provides a concise route
to highly functionalized indolopyrrolocarbazole derivatives
