In this study, reducing the density of oriented strand board (OSB) in the core layer where strands were replaced by rape straw particles was evaluated. The use of rape particles in the core layer did not significantly affect the mechanical properties of OSB. This type of board had only slightly deteriorated properties…

A thin free-standing gold membrane with complex plasmonic structures engraved on both sides is shown to perform as an ultrathin phase plate. Specifically, we demonstrate the generation of a far-field vortex beam propagating at a desired angle. The angular momentum of the beam is generated by the groove helicity, toget…

We use ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to create an amorphous AlBN2 model and find that it consists of nanosegregated two-dimensional hexagonal BN-like and tetrahedral AlN-like domains. These domains are somewhat homogenously distributed in the network. There exist no chemical disorder and Al–B bonding. Amorp…

Starting with a substitution tiling, we demonstrate a method for constructing innitely many new substitution tilings. Each of these new tilings is derived from a graph iterated function system and the tiles have fractal boundary. We show that each of the new tilings is mutually locally derivable to the original tiling…

In this work, we present the enhancement of ultraviolet (UV) photodetection of Ag-ZnO thin film deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The surface morphological, optical, structural, and electrical properties of the deposited thin films were investigated by various characterization techniques. With this Ag…

Abstract Ideally ordered TiO 2 hole arrays with high aspect ratios were prepared by the anodization of pretextured Ti. The obtained TiO 2 acted as two-dimensional photonic crystals in which a photonic band gap is formed in all directions of light propagation in the lattice. The process allows the easy and low-cost fab…

The aim of this paper is characterisation of mesomorphic properties and helical structure parameters: handedness and helical pitch, of two laterally substituted ferroelectric compounds and mixtures based on them. These compounds have the same quaterphenyl rigid core and the same length of non-chiral chain – eight carb…

In surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) community, the origin of b 2 ‐type bands of 4‐aminobenenethiol (4‐ABT) has been controversial until now, and the debate has positively contributed deeper understanding of SERS enhancement mechanism. Here, I report two experimental results to support chemical enhancement mech…

We present an experimental and theoretical study of the optically detected magnetic resonance signals for ensembles of negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in a $^{13}\mathrm{C}$ isotopically enriched single-crystal diamond. We observe four broad transition peaks with superimposed sharp features at zero ma…

We characterize the fluctuation properties of a polymer chain under external tension and the fluctuation-induced forces between two ring molecules threaded around the chain. The problem is relevant in the context of fluctuation-induced forces in soft-matter systems, features of liquid interfaces, and to describe the p…

In-vessel and ex-vessel mitigation strategies have been revisited to improve the severe accident management (SAM) for operating nuclear power plants. Because independent mitigation measures tend to produce positive and adverse effects simultaneously, it is necessary to investigate the efficacy of individual measures b…

Abstract The thermal stability of oxidized single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with various degrees of oxidation was investigated. The oxidized SWNTs exhibited lower absorption and radial breathing mode (RBM) peaks and a higher intensity ratio of the D band to the G band (D/G) in their absorption and Raman spectra…

In this study, we show using X-ray diffraction (XRD) rocking-curve measurements that local strain in tetragonal hen egg white (HEW) lysozyme crystals can be removed to a large degree by utilizing seed crystals cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. We also find that misorientation between subgrains and subgrain size decrea…
