The dispersion stability of silica aggregates in the rubber matrix is one of the concerns for silica-filled compounds. Silica aggregates tend to flocculate due to their poor compatibility with the rubbers and consequent strong tendency for self-association. The flocculation process can occur during compound storage as…

The lattice parameter dependence of the Néel temperature TN of thin Cr2O3 in a Cr2O3/Co exchange-coupled system is investigated. Lattice-mismatch-induced strain is generated in Cr2O3 by using different buffer layers. The lattice parameters are determined from out-of-plane and in-plane X-ray diffraction measurements. T…

Aluminum and magnesium have a strong plasmonic response in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum. Due to the differences in their dielectric responses, however, there are qualitative differences in the fluorescence enhancement factors for Al and Mg nanoapertures. In order to make our results applicable to experimental…

Liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) combine the attributes of liquid crystals and polymers, while discotic LCPs have been less developed in sharp contrast to their calamitic counterparts mainly due to lack of suitable discotic LCP materials. Here we successfully prepared a series of well-defined triphenylene (TP) based…
