This paper deals with the characterization of a green composite, made of flax fibers and a bio-derived furan resin. It is shown that the porosity within the composite, which is determined by various parameters, adversely influences the mechanical performance as well as the water absorption behavior of the material.

The ground state of colloidal magnetic particles in a modulated channel are investigated as a function of the tilt angle of an applied magnetic field. The particles are confined by a parabolic potential in the transversal direction while in the axial direction a periodic substrate potential is present. By using Monte…

Abstract N‐type zinc oxide (ZnO) and p‐type cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) thin films were fabricated by an ultrasonic spray‐assisted mist chemical vapor deposition (mist CVD) method. The films of transparent conductive gallium‐doped ZnO (ZnO:Ga) and indium tin oxide (ITO) were also formed by the same technique. ZnO thin film…

When an applied magnetic field has an arbitrary direction with respect to the lattice axes of a periodically microstructured or nanostructured metamaterial, the effective permittivity tensor of the metamaterial sample becomes anisotropic and all its components can be nonzero. This is true even if the microstructure ha…

Tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) oxides are one of the most important classes of ferroelectrics. Many of these framework structures undergo ferroelastic transformations related to octahedron tilting deformations. Such tilting deformations are closely related to the rigid unit modes (RUMs). This paper discusses the who…

There are two modes by which clusters of aggregating particles can coalesce: The clusters can merge either (i) by the Ostwald ripening process, in which particles diffuse from one cluster to the other while the cluster centers remain stationary, or (ii) by means of a cluster translation mode, in which the clusters mov…

The amine functionalized CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles were prepared by thermal decomposition method at reflux temperatures 160℃ and 172℃. The obtained CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles at 160 °C reflux temperature show aggregation free poly-dispersed nanoparticles in 4-15 nm range. In an elevated reflux temperature of 172 ℃, CoFe₂O₄ sho…

The magnetic, dielectric, and magnetoelectric properties are investigated in the polycrystalline Cr2WO6. Under zero magnetic fields, no dielectric anomaly and electric polarization are observed in this compound. After magnetoelectric annealing, the magnetic-field-induced dielectric and pyroelectric current peaks simul…

This article describes a model for hydrogen outgassing into a stainless steel vacuum chamber. It accounts for the geometry of the chamber components, the hydrogen dissolved in those components, and the processes of diffusion, recombination, and trapping. Strongly bound or “trapped” hydrogen, which occurs at heterogene…

A new face-centred-cubic phase is reported here in a metastable β-titanium alloy with an equilibrium α–β structure, formed due to solution treatment and ageing. The face-centred-cubic phase is located inside the close-packed-hexagonal α-phase and has an orientation relationship with α-phase. This new phase could be ob…

The morphology and crystal growth of devitrite crystals nucleated heterogeneously on glass surfaces have been studied. The crystals grow as fans of needles, with each needle having a characteristic [100] growth direction with respect to the centrosymmetric triclinic unit cell. An analysis of crystal growth data report…

Abstract By performing density functional theory calculations, we studied the quantum confinement in charged graphene quantum dots (GQDs), which is found to be clearly edge and shape dependent. It is found that the excess charges have a large distribution at the edges of the GQD. The resulting energy spectrum shift is…
