Abstract We demonstrate reversible RGB‐color photocontrol of a chiral nematic liquid crystal (N*LC) by using newly synthesized closed‐ and open‐type chiral dopants. The photoswitching elements in the dopants are azobenzene units on axially chiral binaphthyl cores. Owing to cis – trans photoisomerization of the azobenz…

Abstract The influence of annealing on mechanical α c ‐relaxation of isotactic polypropylene ( i PP) is investigated. In the sample without annealing, polymer chains in the intermediate phase are constrained by crystallites with a broad size distribution, leading to one α c ‐relaxation peak with activation energy ( E…

Photocatalytic response of as-quenched and heat-treated 2Bi2O3-B2O3 glasses was studied. X ray diffraction reveals that the controlled heat treatment of glasses at 380 °C for 1 h, 2 h, and 3 h shows the formation of Bi4B2O9 crystals embedded in 2Bi2O3-B2O3 the host glass matrix. Scanning electron microscopic images re…

Most of the HV power equipment with gas–solid insulation suffers a lot from the surface charge accumulation due to corona discharge. The existence of surface charge distorts the local electric field and leads to surface flashover faults in extreme situations. As a result, it is important to figure out the mechanism of…

Previously, we have proposed a relationship between the adsorption modes of a simple molecule (NO) and the behavior of the nanometer-scale monometallic clusters after this adsorption. More precisely, a set of experiments seems to show that dissociative adsorption of NO leads to the sintering of nanometer-scale metalli…
