Temperature fields in microdevices made from silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers are strongly influenced by the lateral thermal conductivity of the silicon overlayer, which is diminished by phonon scattering on the layer boundaries. This study measures the thermal conductivity of single-crystal silicon layers in SOI sub…
We review recent experimental work falling under the broad classification of colossal magnetoresistance (CMR), which is magnetoresistance associated with a ferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic phase transition. The prototypical CMR compound is derived from the parent compound, perovskite . When hole doped at a concentration…
It was shown that in ultrafine‐grained nanostructured Cu processed by severe plastic deformation and subjected to cold rolling and annealing, the level and character of Young′s modulus anisotropy is significantly different from values corresponding to cold rolled and annealed coarse‐grained Cu. The crystallographic te…
The influence of a crystallographic texture (CT) on Dynamic Recrystallization (DRX) was investigated at T = 300℃ and 2.8 x 10 -3 s -1 in Mg–5.8% Zn–0.65% Zr in detail. It was shown that mechanics and kinetics of DRX are in strong dependence on location of basal planes. Initial texture effects recrystallized grain size…
The position operator (defined within the Schroedinger representation in the standard way) becomes meaningless when periodic boundary conditions are adopted for the wavefunction, as usual in condensed matter physics. We show how to define the position expectation value by means of a simple many-body operator acting on…
The effect of electrolyte concentration on the electropolymerization of pyrrole was investigated by studies of conductivity, tensile strength, and absorption spectra, etc., of polypyrrole films prepared from electrolyte aqueous solutions. The electrolyte salts used in the studies include sodium p-toluenesulfonate (TsO…
Fairly uniform spheres of crosslinked polystyrene (PS) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), prepared by a particular emulsification process using SPG (Shirasu Porous Glass) membranes and subsequent suspension polymerization, were applied for immobilizing carriers of Glucoamylase (GluA). A mixture of monomers, solvents,…
Absolute viscosities of dilute solutions of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) in cyclohexanone and in its blends with xylene were determined at temperatures ranging from 5 to 50°C and in THF at 5–30°C. The simple Arrhenius reaction kinetics equation, used by Anrade to analyze the viscosity data of liquids and later by Moore…
Unvulcanized and dynamically vulcanized blends of isotactic polypropylene (PP) and butadiene styrene block copolymer (SBS) in the composition range of 10–40 wt % SBS were prepared by melt mixing in an internal mixer and evaluated for impact and tensile properties. Dynamic vulcanization of blends gave superior mechanic…
Blends of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) with the polyamide nylon-6 (N6), prepared by extrusion, were studied with a composition of up to 30% by weight polyamide. In the case of a 70/30 iPP/N6 blend, the influence of a compatibilizing agent based on polypropylene functionalized with maleic anhydride (PP-g-MA), with com…
The cloud point curves for polysulfone (PSf)/solvent/water systems were determined by a titration method. A small amount of water was needed to induce liquid-liquid demixing and the temperature effect was small. From numerical calculations, it was found that the binary interaction parameters for the PSf/solvent/water…
Dendrimers constitute a class of polymers with unique properties and applications resulting from the presence of internal voids and of a large number of functionalities on the surface. The development of a macromolecular chemistry within the cavities of dendrimers is illustrated here. Two examples of construction of s…
Metallic films are important in catalysis, magneto-optic storage media, and interconnects in microelectronics, and it is crucial to predict and control their morphologies. The evolution of a growing crystal is determined by the behavior of each individual atom, but technologically relevant structures have to be descri…
We review the effects of Coulomb correlation on the linear and non-linear optical properties of semiconductor quantum wires, with emphasis on recent results for the bound excitonic states. Our theoretical approach is based on generalized semiconductor Bloch equations, and allows full three-dimensional multisubband des…
We derive an equation of motion for the the dynamics of a ferromagnetic domain wall driven by an external magnetic field through a disordered medium and we study the associated depinning transition. The long-range dipolar interactions set the upper critical dimension to be $d_c=3$, so we suggest that mean-field expone…
The linear and nonlinear (χ (2) ) optical responses of Langmuir monolayers of organically functionalized silver quantum dots were measured as a continuous function of interparticle separation under near-ambient conditions. As the distance between metal surfaces was decreased from 12 to ∼5 angstroms, both quantum and c…
Numerical simulations of homogeneous crystal nucleation with a model for globular proteins with short-range attractive interactions showed that the presence of a metastable fluid-fluid critical point drastically changes the pathway for the formation of a crystal nucleus. Close to this critical point, the free-energy b…
The Young's modulus, strength, and toughness of nanostructures are important to proposed applications ranging from nanocomposites to probe microscopy, yet there is little direct knowledge of these key mechanical properties. Atomic force microscopy was used to determine the mechanical properties of individual, structur…
Computational methods and software have been developed for the analysis and design of magnetic imaging energy filters for transmission electron microscopes. The filters considered are of the omega and alpha types, in which the electron beam is steered through three or four bending magnets, to produce a stigmatic image…
This paper deals with the bending problem of a variable-are-length elastica under moment gradient. The variable are-length arises from the fact that one end of the elastica is hinged while the other end portion is allowed to slide on a frictionless support that is fixed at a given horizontal distance from the hinged e…
