Abstract An organotin‐substituted Dawson‐type phosphotungstate was covalently linked to a trithiocarbonate group by postfunctionalization methods. This organopolyoxometalate led to a series of polyoxometalate (POM)–poly( N , N ‐diethylacrylamide) hybrids in a controlled way through reversible addition–fragmentation ch…

Through extreme flow-induced fusion and rupturing of microscale droplets within a mixture of two or more oil-in-water emulsions, each having a different type of mutually immiscible oil, we create complex oil-in-water nanoemulsions composed of multicomponent compartmentalized nanodroplets. The extreme flow temporarily…

The alignment of carbon nanotubes (CNT) is the fundamental requirement to ensure their excellent functions but seems to be desolated in recent years. A facile method, hot-press combined with peel-off (HPPO), is introduced here, through which CNT can be successfully vertically aligned on the polymeric membrane substrat…

This work investigates the mechanical behavior of a clamped-clamped microbeam modeled within the framework of the strain-gradient elasticity theory. The governing equation of motion gives proper account of both the effect of the nonlinear midplane stretching and of an applied axial load. An electric-voltage difference…

A family of three new mononuclear complexes of the general form [Fe(L(pz))2(NCE)2] has been prepared (L(pz) = 4-p-tolyl-3-(2-pyrazinyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole; E = S, Se, BH3). All three exhibit spin crossover, in two cases with hysteresis, with T1/2 being predictably tuned by varying the coordinated anion.
