The grain refinement and mechanical properties of a Cu–0.1Cr–0.06Zr alloy subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at a temperature of 673 K were examined. The microstructure evolution was characterised by the development of a large number of low-angle subboundaries at small strains. An increase in the true…

The effect of cross-link density on the reversible shape-memory effect (SME) under constant load was systematically studied in cross-linked linear poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL). A remarkable reversible SME under stress-free conditions was observed in PCL with the highest achieved cross-link density. Thermal properties as…

Purpose The ability to evaluate pathological changes in the spinal cord in multiple sclerosis (MS) is limited because T 1 ‐ and T 2 ‐w MRI imaging are not sensitive to biochemical changes in vivo. Amide proton transfer (APT) chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) can indirectly detect amide protons associated wi…

Abstract Maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) with a spinel structure, consisting of tetrahedral Fe3+ (Fe3+Td) and octahedral Fe3+ (Fe3+Oh) sites, has been intensively investigated as an environmentally benign catalyst for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH3. In most cases, Fe3+Oh sites were regarded as catalytically a…

Abstract Selective doping of Ni 2+ in octahedral sites provided by nanocrystals embedded in glass-ceramics (GCs) is crucial to the enhancement of broadband near-infrared (NIR) emission. In this work, a NIR emission with a full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) of 288 nm is first reported from ZnGa 2 O 4 : Ni 2+ nano-spinel…

The fluorescence properties of the BODIPY dye and its two meso-substituted derivatives, tert-butyl- and phenyl-BODIPY, are rationalized. The non-emissive behavior of the latter two are attributed to the energetically accessible low-lying conical intersection between the ground state and the lowest excited singlet stat…
