Femtosecond measurements of transient absorption, bleach, and stimulated emission are used to study the excited-state dynamics of phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate (PcS 4 ) and zinc phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate (ZnPcS 4 ) in solution. In water the excited-state decay process is fast and dominated by energy relaxation due…

The phenomenological boundary conditions for the envelope wave function, which is applicable for contacts of semiconductors with the rather different crystal symmetry are proposed. It is shown that the boundary conditions are determined by the number of real values, which are independent of the electron energy. The nu…

The synthesis and characterization of a family of well-defined liquid crystal−coil (LC−coil) diblock copolymers have been carried out. The block copolymers in this study have been designed to have nearly identical molecular weight azobenzene-containing LC blocks in order to eliminate possible variations in LC behavior…

Aggregation in the nondoped polyaniline, emeraldine base (EB), as observed by GPC in a N -methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) solution, was found to be closely related to the fraction of the imine nitrogen atoms in the nondoped polymer, i.e., to the oxidation state of the polymer. As EB was reduced to leucoemeraldine base (L…

The corrosion behavior of copper in aqueous solutions of different pH values was investigated using electrochemical and surface analysis methods. It was shown that the corrosion mechanism changed with pH and was associated with morphology of the surface films formed. In solution of pH 3, the copper surface was covered…

Polycatenar mesogens have a shape intermediate between classical rod‐like and disc‐like liquid crystals which allows practically all the mesomorphic symmetrics to be obtained with the same molecular core by varying the temperature or the number and position of grafted chains (see Figure: R = H(CH 2 ) n O).

Hexagonally closed packed monolayers of colloids have found more and more applications, e.g. as lithographic masks. The monolayers are usually produced with the help of a self-organizing process where a suspension of colloids is applied to the desired substrate and left to dry. This method requires a good wettability…

The first mesoporous materials (pore diameter between 20 and 100 Å) were discovered just five eyars ago. A new approach to mesoporous materials by direct templating of lyotropic liquid crystals is reviewed and compared with strategies reported previously. The direct templating method is shown to be very verstile. It i…
