The glass-forming liquid triphenyl phosphite (TPP) has recently attracted much attention due to the possible existence of a polyamorphism, i.e., the existence of two or more amorphous phases. In the present work we provide experimental evidence of the existence of a polymorphism in TPP. In addition to the already know…

Abstract Thermal wetting can simply, selectively and reversibly join patchy particles into clusters (2D and 3D) and also colloidal crystals over the narrow temperature range of 1–2 °C. This is demonstrated with Janus particles (gold half‐coated silica spheres) immersed in a binary mixture of water/2,6‐lutidine, such t…

A low coercivity and, consequently, low hysteresis loss are desired properties for ferroelectric materials used in high-power and high-frequency actuators. The coercive field required for the onset of ferroelectric switching is shown to develop a strong directional anisotropy due to peculiarities of an energy surface…

An empirically derived dependence of the breakdown potential (E b ) of pure magnesium (Mg) on chloride ion concentration ([Cl - ]) is described. For commercial purity Mg, which undergoes spontaneous breakdown in the absence of external polarization, E b is established by following time-dependent changes in free corros…

The electronic states and superconductivity in iron pnictides are studied on the basis of the 16 band $d$-$p$ model which includes both the onsite Coulomb interaction between Fe $d$ electrons and the intersite one between Fe $d$ and pnictogen $p$ electrons. The model well accounts for experimentally observed two fluct…

The magnetoelectric (ME) effect in FeSb 2 O 4 is investigated with single-crystalline samples. We have examined the dielectric constant and the electric polarization in various directions of a magnetic field relative to the crystallographic axes. The anisotropy of the ME effect was observed below the Neel temperature…

Abstract A facile approach was developed to fabricate visible/near‐infrared antireflective (AR), superhydrophilic and anti‐fogging thin films on glass substrates. Glass substrate was first etched by H 2 SiF 6 ‐based vapor and then dip‐coated sequentially in a base‐catalyzed 20 nm SiO 2 nanoparticles sol and an acid‐ca…
