Time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) spectra are reported for gas-suspended 1–10 nm diameter SiOx particles formed by laser ablation of Si into 1–10 Torr He and Ar. Three spectral bands (1.8, 2.5 and 3.2 eV) similar to PL from oxidized porous silicon were measured, but with a pronounced vibronic structure. Particle si…

We report on the synthesis of size-classified PbS nanocrystals by differential mobility analysis of a polydisperse aerosol formed by nucleation and aggregation processes in a furnace reactor. The sublimation temperature employed is below the stoichiometric evaporation temperature, thus enabling direct and simple synth…

General properties of nucleation of elastic defects in crystals undergoing a phase transition are described in the framework of a Landau-type approach. For static defects the phase diagram topology of a nucleus is shown to be independent of the nature and geometry of the defects and may contain additional phases which…

We have measured the dielectric loss in SrTiO3 thin films grown on SrRuO3 electrode layers with thickness ranging from 25 nm to 2.5 μm. The loss depends strongly on the thickness but differently above and below T≈80 K: as the thickness increases, the loss decreases at high temperatures but becomes higher at low temper…

We report Mn $K$-edge extended x-ray absorption fine structure spectra on ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.75}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.25}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ up to high momentum transfer across the metal-insulator $(M\ensuremath{-}I)$ transition. The data show compelling evidence for (i) large or intermediate Jahn-Teller polarons (IJTP), ch…

We have carried out angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy of ${\mathrm{SmTe}}_{3}$, a quasi-two-dimensional material with an incommensurate high-temperature charge density wave (CDW). This is the first direct experimental view of the full detail of an imperfectly nested Fermi surface, and the momentum space gap an…

Ab initio Perturbed Ion cluster-in-the-lattice calculations of the impurity centers NaI:Tl+ and CsI:Tl+ are pressented. We study several active clusters of increasing complexity and show that the lattice relaxation around the Tl+ impurity implies the concerted movement of several shells of neighbors. The results also…

Cu-, Eu-, or Mn-doped ZnS nanocrystalline phosphors were prepared at room temperature using a chemical synthesis method. Transmission electron microscopy observation shows that the size of the ZnS clusters is in the 3–18 nm range. New luminescence characteristics such as strong and stable visible-light emissions with…

A sample of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and a polar plasticizer consisting of dioctylphthalate (DOP) and triisopropylphenylphosphate (TIPPP) was prepared and found to possess some electrical conductivity. Different samples of PVC compositions were formulated from the PVC-DOP-TIPPP system and also variable proportions o…

Novel pressure-induced intercalation of alcohols into a layered titanate has been discovered using a diamond-anvil cell and in situ X-ray diffraction measurement. The lepidocrocite(γ-FeOOH)-type titanate containing pentylammonium ions exhibited uniaxial expansion of 0.27 nm in methanol at 1 GPa and 0.23 nm in ethanol…

The intercelluar diffusion of poly(butyl methacrylate) (PBMA; glass transition temperature ( T g ) = 21 °C) at 60 °C was monitored by fluorescence energy transfer in films formed from blends of PBMA latex and a high- T g (hard) latex. Two types of hard latexes were used in blends: one composed of poly(methyl methacryl…
