A new solid solution system, namely {(K 0.5 Na 0.5 ) 1− x Li x }(Nb 1− y Ta y )O 3 , with full density, a large piezoelectric constant and high stability has been developed. The system has a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between orthorhombic and tetragonal. The MPB gives the largest piezoelectric d constant at {(K…
The hyperfine interaction of phosphorus donors in fully strained Si thin films grown on virtual Si$_{1-x}$Ge$_x$ substrates with $x\leq 0.3$ is determined via electrically detected magnetic resonance. For highly strained epilayers, hyperfine interactions as low as 0.8 mT are observed, significantly below the limit pre…
Phase diagrams in the plane of ${r}_{A}$ (the average ionic radius, related to the one-electron bandwidth $W$) and ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}^{2}$ (the ionic radius variance, measuring the quenched disorder), or bandwidth-disorder phase diagrams, have been established for perovskite manganites, with a three-dimensional (3…
Incorporation of CdSe/ZnS semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) into viral particles provides a new paradigm for the design of intracellular microscopic probes and vectors. Several strategies for the incorporation of QDs into viral capsids were explored; those functionalized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) can be self-ass…
We investigate by molecular dynamics simulation how thin film confinement modifies the fragility of a model glass-forming liquid characterized previously in the bulk. Film confinement is found to reduce the relative fragility of the polymer fluid, leading to effects similar to simulations of the addition of an antipla…
Large-scale debundling of single-walled nanotubes has been demonstrated by dilution of nanotube dispersions in the solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). At high concentrations some very large (approximately 100 s of micrometers) nanotube aggregates exist that can be removed by mild centrifugation. By measurement of th…
Abstract The marriage of nanomaterials with biology has produced a new generation of technologies that can profoundly impact biological and biomedical research. Quantum dots (Qdots) are an archetype for this hybrid research area and have gained popularity and interest from diverse research communities because of their…
We observe second-harmonic generation from metamaterials composed of split-ring resonators excited at 1.5-micrometer wavelength. Much larger signals are detected when magnetic-dipole resonances are excited, as compared with purely electric-dipole resonances. The experiments are consistent with calculations based on th…
The plasmonic properties of single silver triangular nanoprisms are investigated using dark-field optical microscopy and spectroscopy. Two distinct localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) are observed. These are assigned as in-plane dipolar and quadrupolar plasmon excitations using electrodynamic modeling based on…
From laptop computers and mobile phones to digital cinema, Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) are integral components in an increasing array of highly desirable consumer electronics and communication devices, and are already the predominant technology used in flat panel displays. This inter-disciplinary book is intended a…
The origins of a slow reaction rate between the sodium adatoms and the water-ice film have been investigated by analyzing the surface composition using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy in the temperature range of 13-230 K. An unhydrated NaOH layer is formed at the water-Na interface at 13 K which is foll…
The thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics of the green emission band of natural calcite are studied. The kinetic parameters of the natural and laboratory-induced defects were estimated. The γ-dose response was studied in the range of 0.01–104 Gy. The fading rate at room temperature is monitored over a period of 30 d…
Aggregatbildung in koordinierenden Lösungsmitteln: Ein Riesenoxidocluster [Bi38O45(hfac)24] (hfac=Hexafluoracetylacetonat) wurde aus Lösungen des Bismutoxidodiketonats [Bi9O7(hfac)13] isoliert und vollständig charakterisiert. Der [Bi38O45]24+-Kern (siehe Bild; orange Bi, rot O, die zentrale Bi6O9-Einheit ist hervorgeh…
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) granule-associated proteins (phasins) were discovered in PHA-accumulating bacteria. They play a crucial role as a structural protein during initial PHA-granule formation and granule growth and also serve as interfaces for granule stabilization in vivo. The phasin PhaP(Ah) from Aeromonas hydr…
In this work we present an algorithm based on the simulated annealing (SA) method for electron beam spectrum reconstruction from central axis PDD data. We use a simulated beam in order to assess the accuracy of the method, and compare it with others usually employed. We found that our modified SA algorithm produced ex…
ZnO thin films, 100–250 nm thick, were deposited on microscope glass slides and UV fused silica (UVFS) substrates using a filtered vacuum arc deposition (FVAD) system, operating at room temperature (RT) and 200 A for 60 s. The cathode was prepared from 99.9% pure Zn metal and the oxygen background pressure during depo…
Summary Low‐molecular‐weight (LMW) organic acids exist widely in soils, especially in the rhizosphere, and the adsorption of these acids may affect their reactions in soils. The adsorption behaviour of phthalic acid and salicylic acid by two variable charge soils (a Rhodic Ferralsol and a Haplic Acrisol) was investiga…
The semiconducting $\mathrm{Na}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{7}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$ is a doping-free compound with several coexistent properties such as orbital ordering, charge ordering, and magnetic orderings of different types. We investigated its dielectric response by means of frequency impedance measurements in the range from $2…
We report a methodology that permits quantitation of the azimuthal anchoring energy of the nematic liquid crystal 4-cyano-4'-pentyl-biphenyl on surfaces patterned with oligopeptides. The oligopeptide (IYGEFKKKC), an optimized substrate for the Src protein kinase, was covalently immobilized via the terminal cysteine to…
A mechanism for the photochemical conversion of 2-vinyl-1,3-terphenyl to 8,9a-dihydrophenanthrene (Lewis, F. D.; Zuo, X.; Gevorgyan, V.; Rubin, M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 13664-13665) is presented in this study, based on ab initio restricted active space self-consistent field calculations and a molecular mechanic…
