We process silver nanostructures via electrodeposition into porous aluminium oxide templates. The degree of pore ordering determines the morphology of the silver nanostructure from smooth to branched nanowires. Nanostructures reminiscent of fir-twigs form in templates with large and low-ordered pores. We demonstrate t…

The total mass attenuation coefficients (mu/rho) for pure Au and Au99Be1, Au88Ge12, Au95Zn5 alloys were measured at 59.5 and 88.0 keV photon energies. The samples were irradiated with 241Am and 109Cd radioactive point source using transmission arrangement. The gamma- rays were counted by a Si(Li) detector with resolut…

At low volume fraction, disordered arrangements of frictionless spheres are found in unjammed states unable to support applied stresses, while at high volume fraction they are found in jammed states with mechanical strength. Here we show, focusing on the hard sphere zero pressure limit, that the transition between unj…

We present an investigation of the change in wettability of water droplets on 3 different flat, smooth substrates with an elevation in temperature. Two methods were employed. In the first method the droplet was placed on the substrate before it was heated and in the second method the droplets were induced to fall onto…

In this paper, a low–loss Ni–Mn–Co ferrite (Ni$_{0.76}$Mn$_{0.24-}$$_x$Co$_x$Fe$_2$O$_4$with x = 0–0.04) has been developed for miniaturization and performance improvement of mobile handset antennas. The developed ferrite material has almost equal permittivity and permeability of 7–9, as well as sufficiently low diele…

Electron transfer reaction of a self-assembled donor-acceptor dyad formed by axial coordination of zinc naphthalocyanine, ZnNc, and subphthalocyanine appended with pyridine coordinating ligand, SubPc(py), was investigated in the present study. The SubPc(Py) : ZnNc self-assembled dyad absorbs the light in a wide sectio…

Aberration-corrected electron microscopy (STEM-HAADF) has been used for the first time to understand the capping, nature and structure of the MoS(2) nanotubes. The MoS(2) nanotubes that have been obtained have various unusual faceted caps presumably arising from the presence of topological defects. A detailed study of…

We report on the preparation of microstructured poly(2-oxazoline) bottle-brush brushes (BBBs) on nanocrystalline diamond (NCD). Structuring of NCD was performed by photolithography and plasma treatment to result in a patterned NCD surface with oxidized and hydrogenated areas. Self-initiated photografting and photopoly…

We investigate the photoinduced dissociation of HgBr(2) in methanol and the ensuring structural dynamics of the photo-products over a time span from 100 ps to 1 μs after photolysis at 267 nm by using time-resolved X-ray liquidography (TRXL). By making use of the atomic-level structural sensitivity of X-ray scattering…

We present a thermodynamic theory of the Kovacs effect based on the idea that the configurational degrees of freedom of a glass-forming material are driven out of equilibrium with the heat bath by irreversible thermal contraction and expansion. We assume that the slowly varying configurational subsystem, i.e. the part…
