We study the effect of transversal electric-field (E-field) on the electronic properties of multilayer armchair-graphene-nanoribbon (AGNR). The bandgap in multilayer-AGNRs can be reversibly modulated with the application of E-field. At optimized widths, we obtain a semiconductor (SC) to metallic (M) and a M-SC transit…

The modification of acicular alpha of TC21 titanium alloy during hot rolling was investigated for finer grains under the condition of optimized preheating time. Two different preheating schedules were used to roll TC21 alloy plates at strains of 0.36, 0.69, and 1.2. The results show that preheating time has a great ef…

Shape memory polyurethanes are usually fabricated with low-molecular weight polyols through a two-step copolymerization, which often results in difficulty attaining both desired shape memory switch temperature and optimal thermomechanical properties. Here we present a series of shape memory polyurethane copolymers hav…

This work looks at the fundamental question of how the surface mobility of drops in the composite state is related to the size scale of the roughness features of the surface. To this end, relevant literature is first reviewed and the important terms are clarified. We then describe and discuss contact and roll-off angl…

The microstructure and the ferroelectric properties of mirrorlike polycrystalline PbTiO 3 thin films were studied as a function of the film thickness. Highly uniform PbTiO 3 films were deposited onto LaNiO 3 -buffered (100) Si substrates by liquid phase deposition at temperatures as low as 45 °C. The as-deposited film…

We investigated an effect of hydrostatic pressure ( P ) up to 14 GPa on a resistivity (ρ) of a hole-doped delafossite oxide CuCr 0.97 Mg 0.03 O 2 having an S = 3/2 antiferromagnetic (AF) triangular sublattice. In contrast to a non-monotonic P -dependence of ρ, an AF transition temperature ( T N ≈ T peak ) deduced from…

Self-consistent field theory is used to calculate free energy barriers and reaction rates for the spontaneous association and dissociation of micelles formed of block copolymers in a homopolymer matrix. The barriers are prohibitively large for copolymers of typical molecular weights when the unimer (free surfactant) c…

Due to their large surface-to-volume ratio compared to that of a bulk semiconductor, carbon nanotubes are very sensitive to their environment. Their properties can be dramatically changed by simple exposure to air. Here, we show that the electronic and optical properties of p-n diodes fabricated with single-walled car…

The self-assembly in diblock copolymer-based supramolecules, obtained by hydrogen bonding short side chains to one of the blocks, as well as in two-length-scale linear terpolymers results in hierarchical structure formation. The orientation of the different domains, e.g. layers in the case of a lamellar-in-lamellar st…
