Narrow polydisersity cyclic poly(caprolactone) was synthesized by cyclization of linear α,ω-functionalized poly(caprolactone). The linear precursors were prepared via ring-opening polymerization from an azido-functionalized initiator, followed by end group modification to attach a terminal alkyne. Click coupling affor…

In this work we calculate the local elastic moduli in a weakly polydispersed two-dimensional Lennard-Jones glass undergoing a quasistatic shear deformation at zero temperature. The numerical method uses coarse-grained microscopic expressions for the strain, displacement, and stress fields. This method allows us to cal…

Following a recent theoretical suggestion and microwave experiments, we fabricate photonic metamaterials composed of pairs of twisted gold crosses using two successive electron-beam-lithography steps and intermediate planarization via a spin-on dielectric. The resulting two effective resonances of the coupled system l…

We report a correlation between the microstructure of the anode electrode of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and its electrochemical performance for a tubular design. It was shown that the electrochemical performance of the cell was extensively improved when the size of constituent particles was reduced so as to yield…

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is used to demonstrate the presence of density fluctuations in ambient water on a physical length-scale of approximately 1 nm; this is retained with decreasing temperature while the magnitude is enhanced. In contrast, the magnitude of fluctuations in a normal liquid, such as CCl(4),…

Helium irradiation on tungsten changes the surface morphology dramatically by forming a nanometre-sized fibreform structure which could bring about serious problems for fusion reactors. From the experimental results in liner divertor simulators, it is revealed that the incident ion energy and surface temperature are k…

Nanodispersion of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) has been systematically investigated with the use of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) surfactant in de-ionized water. A high concentration of nanodispersed SWCNTs up to 0.08 mg/mL was achieved with introduction of an additional disp…

In 1972, de Gennes pointed out the formal analogy between the Landau–Ginzburg Hamiltonians describing the phase transition from normal to superconductor on one hand and from nematic to smectic A liquid crystals on the other hand. This elegant analogy became a source of inspiration not only for theoreticians, as it rev…
