Abstract The phenomenon of dislocation patterning during melt growth of III‐V, II‐VI and IV‐VI semiconductor crystals is discussed. The paper is focused on the formation of cellular structures driven by the growth inherent thermo‐mechanical stress. Of particular interest is the scaling of relations between cells size,…

Impedance analysis studies were carried out on compensated bulk lead zirconate titanate samples. Fatigue is concomitant with the onset of dielectric loss. This is shown to be dominantly due to an irreversibly modified near-surface layer that can be polished off. The highly compensated nature of these samples minimizes…

Abstract Summary: We present a new method for preparing a nanocomposite containing highly dispersed ZnO nanoparticles. The essence of this approach is the formation of surface modified inorganic particles and their homogeneous incorporation into a polymeric matrix. Therefore, an inverse emulsion of an inorganic salt,…

The influence of fractal clusters of a normal phase on the current-voltage characteristics of a percolation superconductor in the region of a resistive transition has been studied. The clusters represent the aggregates of columnar defects, which give rise to a correlated microscopic disorder in the system. Dependencie…

Depinning of vortices in percolative superconductor containing fractal clusters of a normal phase is considered. Transition of the superconductor into a resistive state corresponds to the percolation transition from a pinned vortex state to a resistive state when the vortices are free to move. The motion of the magnet…

We measure the geometry of a crumpled sheet of paper with laser-aided topography and discuss its statistical properties. The curvature of an elasto-plastic fold scales linearly with applied force. The curvature distribution follows an exponential form with regions of high curvature localized along ridges. The measured…

The effect of impurities on the grain boundary melting of ice is investigated through an extension of Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory, in which we include retarded potential effects in a calculation of the full frequency-dependent van der Waals and Coulombic interactions within a grain boundary. At high dopant…

We propose a concept for superconducting electric field-effect devices based on superconducting films sandwiched between ferroelectric layers. We provide theoretical calculations that indicate how the field effect in these devices could be amplified, which can be experimentally probed even at the current stage of film…

The influence of fractal clusters of a normal phase on distinctive features of current-voltage characteristic of percolative type-II superconductors is considered. The results of high-resolution measurements of the differential resistance of BPSCCO/Ag composites are discussed in the context of magnetic flux dynamics.…

The effect of quantum confinement in PbSe quantum wells and dots is studied using tight binding calculations. Compared to zinc-blende semiconductors, unusual physical properties are predicted for rock salt PbSe nanostructures. The energy gap increases as the inverse of the size both for wells and dots. For PbSe nanocr…

Copper wires were prepared in a silicon oxide matrix using the methods of semiconductor manufacturing and were electrically characterized. The width of the smallest structure was 40 nm and of the largest, 1000 nm; the heights were 50, 155, and 230 nm. Many samples of each size have been measured in order to perform a…

We study thermodynamic properties of the high-temperature modification of fullerites on the basis of the Girifalco intermolecular potential. In the present work, using the Lindemann's melting criterion we estimate a possible melting curve Tm(P) of C60 fullerite. To take into account the lattice anharmonicity that has…

Abstract Hollow calcium carbonate particles were synthesized by a novel and facile approach which involves bubbling the CO2/N2 mixed gases into CaCl2 solution. The hollow particles were formed by the aggregation of nano-sized spherical particles on bubble surface. The formation mechanism was firstly proposed and the i…

From a quasi-racemic mixture of structurally related palladium complexes of opposite chirality, no quasi-racemic crystals were obtained. Rather, ligand exchange resulted in conventional racemic crystals. The crystal and molecular structures of the title complex, [Pd(C8H11N)(C5F6O2)], are reported.

Abstract A series of segmented polyurethane fluoroelastomers based on dimethylol‐terminated perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs), aliphatic diisocyanates and allyl functionality is presented. Depending on the type of diisocyanate monomer used, it was found that quite different prepolymer molecular weights were achieved. Therma…
