CaBi 4 Ti 4 O 15 (CBTi144) thin films were prepared by spin coating a precursor solution of metal alkoxides. As-deposited thin films began crystallization below 550 °C and reached full crystallinity of a single phase of layered perovskite at 650 °C via rapid thermal annealing in oxygen. The 650 °C annealed CBTi144 thi…
Nanosized La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/Pr0.5Sr0.5MnO3 (LSMO1−xPSMOx) ceramic composites are prepared using solid-sate sintering. Their microstructural, electro- and magnetotransport properties are characterized by means of various techniques. It is found that the antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic coupling between PSMO/LSMO at low tem…
Pores in GaAs in the micrometer range and oriented in 〈111〉 directions have been observed during the anodization of GaAs in aqueous HCl electrolytes. A direct evidence of pores intersection is presented which is a very promising feature for three-dimensional micro- and nanostructuring of III–V compounds for the produc…
High-intensity synchrotron x-ray radioscopy was used to obtain real-time images of foaming metals, thus allowing the formation, growth, and decay of such systems to be studied. Bubble generation, foam coalescence and drainage of an aluminum-based alloy foam were investigated. Although the foaming process appears to be…
Variable-temperature atomic force microscopy, piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM), and scanning surface potential microscopy were combined to determine the temperature response of polarization and screening charge on BaTiO3(100) surfaces. The ferroelectric-domain induced surface corrugations and piezoelectric respons…
In this paper we demonstrate that convective Cahn-Hilliard models, describing phase separation of driven systems (e.g., faceting of growing thermodynamically unstable crystal surfaces), exhibit, with the increase of the driving force, a transition from the usual coarsening regime to a chaotic behavior without coarseni…
We have investigated the stress-stimulated luminescence (SSL) from ZnAl2O4:Mn. Two kinds of ZnAl2O4:Mn samples were synthesized at different reduction conditions to clarify the influence of the structure defects on the SSL property. The SSL intensity was found to be greatly increased by reducing ZnAl2O4:Mn at a high t…
Zirconium-doped indium oxide (ZIO) thin films (∼2000 Å thick) have been deposited by pulsed-laser deposition on glass substrates without a postdeposition anneal. The structural, electrical and optical properties of these films have been investigated as a function of substrate temperature and oxygen partial pressure du…
We dispersed electrochemical etched Si into a colloid of ultrabright blue luminescent nanoparticles (1 nm in diameter) and reconstituted it into films or microcrystallites. When the film is excited by a near-infrared two-photon process at 780 nm, the emission exhibits a sharp threshold near 106 W/cm2, rising by many o…
Highly ordered TiO2 nanowire (TN) arrays were prepared in anodic alumina membranes (AAMs) by a sol-gel method. The TNs are single crystalline anatase phase with uniform diameters around 60 nm. At room temperature, photoluminescence (PL) measurements of the TN arrays show a visible broadband with three peaks, which are…
Polymeric fibers with diameters in the range from 50 nm to 5 μm are produced by accelerating a fluid jet in an electric field, in a process known as “electrospinning.” Here we show that an essential element of the process is a fluid instability, the rapidly whipping jet. The phenomena responsible for the onset of whip…
The structure and bonding of a series of gold clusters and gold nanomaterials stabilized by ligands or confined within nanoporous alumina have been investigated using EXAFS, XANES, and WAXS. Two gold clusters stabilized by two different ligands, Au 55 (PPh 3 ) 12 Cl 6 and Au 55 (T 8 - OSS−SH) 12 Cl 6, were confirmed t…
The basal (0001) surface plane of α-Al 2 O 3 has been extensively studied both by experimental techniques and applications of theory. Although this surface is not easily created upon cleavage, it grows in during aluminum oxidation and has been shown to be one of the lowest energy surfaces of alumina. Upon heating unde…
Low-field dc magnetization measurements have been performed on powder samples of the weak ferromagnet Mn[N(CN) 2 ] 2 . In small dc fields, H (0.01 ≤ H ≤ 100 Oe), the zero-field and field-cooled magnetizations display the onset of a spontaneous moment below T c = 15.85(3) K, giving small magnetization values which sugg…
2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) undergoes efficient degradation when an O 2 - or Ar-saturated aqueous solution is subjected to high-frequency (640 kHz) sonolysis. 2,4-dichlorophenol, hydroquinone, and catechol are major reaction intermediates common to various experimental conditions. The similarities between t…
The complexes [Fe[HC(3,5-Me2pz)3]2](BF4)2 (1), [Fe[HC(pz)3]2](BF4)2 (2), and [Fe[PhC(pz)2(py)]2](BF4)2 (3) (pz = 1-pyrazolyl ring, py = pyridyl ring) have been synthesized by the reaction of the appropriate ligand with Fe(BF4)2.6H2O. Complex 1 is high-spin in the solid state and in solution at 298 K. In the solid phas…
Poly(3-octylfuran) has been synthesized with three regioregularities: P3OF-95, P3OF-75, and P3OF-50, where the number signifies the percentage HT content. The 95% HT material is highly crystalline with a structure similar to that of HT-poly(3-octylthiophene), P3OT. The lamellar spacing is 22.1 A and the pi-stacking di…
Sterilized biofilms based on soy protein isolate (SPI, S system) and a 1:1 mixture of SPI and whey protein isolate (WPI, SW system) were achieved through the formation of cross-links by means of gamma-irradiation combined with thermal treatments. The effect of the incorporation of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and poly…
A new lanthanum calcium borate with the composition La 2 CaB 10 O 19 has been synthesized. Single crystals have been grown from a melt close to the stoichiometric composition. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group C 2, with a = 11.043(3) Å, b = 6.563(2) Å, c = 9.129(2) Å, α = γ = 90°, β = 91.…
The results of realistic computer simulations of dense polymer melts filled with solid nanoparticles are compared with results obtained for similar systems near planar solid surfaces and with those of Monte Carlo calculations performed for single chains in the presence of spherical solid obstacles. The polymer units a…
