Violet-blue photoluminescence was produced at room temperature in a structurally disordered SrZrO3 perovskite structure with a 350.7nm excitation line. The intensity of this emission was higher than that of any other perovskites previously studied. The authors discuss the role of structural order-disorder that favors…

The current paper presents results from a laboratory experimental study on the resistance of concrete to simulated impact loading of fragments. The impact of fragments was simulated by the impact of ogive-nosed projectiles with a diameter of 12·6 mm and a mass of 15 g travelling at velocities from ∼610 to 710 m/s. The…

A magnetic vortex is a curling magnetic structure realized in a ferromagnetic disk, which is a promising candidate of a memory cell for future nonvolatile data storage devices. Thus, understanding of the stability and dynamical behaviour of the magnetic vortex is a major requirement for developing magnetic data storag…

We analyze theoretically and experimentally the electronic structure and charging diagram of three coupled lateral quantum dots filled with electrons. Using the Hubbard model and real-space exact diagonalization techniques we show that the electronic properties of this artificial molecule can be understood using a set…

An inelastic neutron scattering study of the lattice dynamics of the martensite phase of the ferromagnetic shape memory alloy, Ni 2 MnGa, reveals the presence of well-defined phasons associated with the charge density wave (CDW) resulting from Fermi surface (FS) nesting. The velocity and the temperature dependence of…

Abstract Multiwalled carbon nanotube/polycaprolactone nanocomposites (MWNT/PCL) were prepared by in situ polymerization, whereby as‐received MWNTs (P‐MWNTs) and purified MWNTs (A‐MWNTs) were used as reinforcing materials. The A‐MWNTs were purified by nitric acid treatment, which introduced the carboxyl groups (COOH) o…

The superposition of the quantum rotational motion (tunneling) of the encapsulated Sc2C2 complex with the classical rotational motion of the surrounding C84 molecule in a powder crystal of Sc2C2@C84 fullerite is investigated by theory. Since the quantum rotor is dragged along by the C84 molecule, any detection method…

The authors report a significant enhancement in the thermal conductivity of a conventional carbon fiber/phenolic resin composite system when adding highly crystalline multiwalled carbon nanotubes. They demonstrate that 7wt% of carbon nanotubes dispersed homogeneously in a phenolic resin acted as an effective thermal b…

Using high-resolution neutron powder diffraction we have determined the average and local structure of YCrO 3 in order to explain the recently reported properties of YCrO 3 . Unlike conventional ferroelectric systems, YCrO 3 is reported to possess a centrosymmetric crystal structure which is inconsistent with the deve…

A precursor of a β-peptide derivative transforms into a hydrogelator and forms supramolecular hydrogels upon phosphatase-catalyzed dephosphorylation. This new strategy works in vitro and in vivo (see image). The enzymatic hydrogelation in vivo indicates that the β-peptide-based hydrogel exhibits a longer lifetime than…

Abstract A new melt‐electrospinning system equipped with a CO 2 ‐laser melting device was developed. Rod‐like samples were prepared from poly(lactide) pellets, and then fibers were produced from the samples using the new system. The effects of producing conditions on the fiber diameter were investigated. Furthermore,…

A direct measure of hydrogen bonding in water under conditions ranging from the normal state to the supercritical regime is derived from the Compton scattering of inelastically-scattered X-rays. First, we show that a measure of the number of electrons $n_e$ involved in hydrogen bonding at varying thermodynamic conditi…

Low-energy electrons scattered in the conduction band of a dielectric solid should behave like Bloch electrons and will interact with perturbations of the atomic lattice, i.e. with phonons. Thus the phonon-based description of low-energy scattering within an energy band structure of a solid bears certain advantages ag…

The temperature dependence of the absorption and fluorescence spectra of colloidal CdSe nanocrystals was compared for three different shapes (dots, rods, and tetrapods) in the range of 4–300K. While the shift of the fluorescence maximum indicates little dependence on the shape, the authors find that the broadening of…
