The influence of ammonia on the optical absorption of polyaniline films obtained by the electrochemical method is studied. In the presence of ammonia, the optical spectra of a polymer are found to change due to the appearance of a new absorption band with a maximum at 2.07 eV and a simultaneous decrease in the intensi…

The melting of fluorographene is very unusual and depends strongly on the degree of fluorination. For temperatures below 1000 K, fully fluorinated graphene (FFG) is thermomechanically more stable than graphene but at T m ≈ 2800 K FFG transits to random coils which is almost 2 times lower than the melting temperature o…

Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are large, nonpolar polypeptides under investigation as components of a novel drug delivery system. ELPs are soluble at low temperatures, but they desolvate and aggregate above a transition temperature (TT). This aggregation is being utilized for targeting systemically delivered ELP-dr…

We have investigated the electromechanical response of potassium sodium niobate ( K 0.5 Na 0.5 NbO 3 or KNN ) thick films. The high‐field strain hysteresis loops and weak‐field converse piezoelectric d 33 coefficient of the films were measured and compared with those of KNN bulk ceramics under the same electric field…

GeSi nanostructured films were obtained by cosputtering from two Ge and Si targets and subsequent annealing in furnace in N2 for 5 h at 700, 800 and 900 °C, with the aim to show the correlation between electrical properties and crystalline structure of the films. The as-deposited films are amorphous, have a Ge:Si comp…

Fischer–Tropsch (F–T) synthesis has attracted much research attention nowadays because of the severe oil crisis and the tight fuel specifications [ 1 , 2 ]. One of the goals of modern F–T synthesis research is to design a catalyst capable of highest selectivity to the desired product without sacrificing activity and l…

We show how all-angle negative refraction can occur in a uniaxial antiferromagnet close to the magnon resonance frequency. This behavior is based on the fact that, in such cases, the antiferromagnet acts as an indefinite permeability medium, i.e., not all its permeability tensor components are of the same sign. If an…
