Sulphur-doped carbon was synthesized using a thiophene-based twin monomer. While tetra(thiophene-2-ylmethoxy)-silane can be converted into sulphur containing nanocomposites, which lead to microporous sulphur-doped carbon, it is possible to produce additional mesopores by the use of templates. Thus, a variety of sulphu…

The first example of metal hydrazinoborane, LiN2H3BH3, and its hydrazine borane adduct LiN2H3BH3·2N2H4BH3 were synthesized with their crystal structures successfully determined. The metal hydrazinoboranes exhibit dramatically improved dehydrogenation over the pristine hydrazine borane (N2H4BH3) with nearly complete de…

For the purpose of increasing the coercivity of the Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets without Dy substitution, we explored a possibility of enhancing the coercivity by grain size reduction of the sintered body by employing the starting powder with an ultimately small particle size. To produce Nd-Fe-B alloy powder with such a s…

We describe the transport properties of mesoscopic devices based on the two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) present at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface. Bridges with lateral dimensions down to 500 nm were realized using electron beam lithography. Their detailed characterization shows that processing and confinement do not…
