We show that the transition temperature ${T}_{c}$ of Nb-doped strontium titanate thin films grown in vacuum by pulsed laser deposition is similar to bulk and that these films follow a similar dependence of ${T}_{c}$ on the carrier density as bulk. We have measured the temperature dependence of the upper critical field…

Electrostrictive ceramics based on Pb(Mg(1/3)Nb(2/3 ))O(3) have demonstrated promise as low-frequency active materials. They broaden the range of design options by providing a mix of properties unavailable in traditional piezoceramics. Typical properties are: 1000 microstrain on the interval 0-1 MV/m with a k(33) of 0…

A flow reactor for evaluation of low surface area, model catalysts has been designed. The aim is to measure catalytic activity at atmospheric pressure on nanofabricated model catalysts, primarily made by the electron-beam lithography (EBL) technique. This is a challenge because of the low attainable active surface are…

Orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum has been crystallized with and without the inhibitor 6-azaUMP by the vapour-diffusion method. In the absence of the inhibitor, the protein crystallizes in space group P4(1)2(1)2 (unit-cell parameters a = b = 56.9, c = 124.5 A)…

The influence of the surface treatment on the Sm-A-N phase transition of the 8CB (octylcyanobiphenyl) liquid crystal confined to controlled pore glass (CPG) matrices is studied. The characteristic linear size of voids in the chosen CPG matrix is 0.2 &mgr;m. The voids' surface was either nontreated or silane treated en…

The transformation of an andalusite (Al 2 O 3 ·SiO 2 = A) single-crystal to 3:2-mullite (3Al 2 O 3 ·2SiO 2 = M) and non-crystalline silica (SiO 2 ) was investigated at the (100) A and (010) A faces using electron microscopy. The transformation starts topotactically at the surfaces producing a dense layer of mullite an…

Ba 2 Co 2 Fe 28 O 46 nanocrystals were synthesized through a stearic acid sol–gel method. The reaction temperatures were notably lower than that of the conventional ceramic method. The nanocrystalline particles obtained at 750 °C were spherical in shape with grain sizes ranging from 10 to 25 nm. Their morphology becam…

1,5-dioxepan-2-one (DXO) is presented as a versatile component in biodegradable polymers for biomedical applications. Copolymerization of DXO and L-lactide yielded a semi-crystalline, yet flexible, material where the extent of crystallinity and erosion characteristics were controlled by an appropriate choice of copoly…

In this paper, finite element analysis (FEA) of a hysteresis motor using a magnetization-dependent model is presented. The hysteresis loop in the hysteresis ring is calculated from the maximum flux density which is obtained by the FEA. The proposed method is applied to a sample motor and the simulation result shows a…
