Liquid crystalline polymer stabilized blue phases (PSBPs) are candidate materials for next generation electro-optic switching devices because they form a self-organized three-dimensional periodic structure and exhibit a fast response time of submillisecond order. Considering the crystallographic structures of PSBPs, i…

In the present work, we consider polydispersity effects on a mixed polymer brush. Two types of polymer chains with different solvent selectivity being densely grafted together onto an impenetrable surface are forming a binary mixed polymer brush. Using a numerical quasi off-lattice self-consistent field method for het…

Structural arrays with nanoscale spacing arise in many device concepts. Carbon nanotube transistors are an extreme example, where a practical technology will require arrays of parallel nanotubes with spacing of order 10 nm or less. We show that with decreasing pitch there is a first-order transition, from a robust str…

Phase-change access memory (PCM) appears to be the strongest candidate for next-generation high-density nonvolatile memory. The fabrication of ultrahigh-density PCM depends heavily on the thin-film growth technique for the phase-changing chalcogenide material. In this study, Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) and GeSb8Te thin films were…

We review different electron transport methods to probe the magnetic properties, such as the magnetic anisotropy, of an individual Fe4 SMM. The different approaches comprise first and higher order transport through the molecule. Gate spectroscopy, focusing on the charge degeneracy-point, is presented as a robust techn…

This review describes in brief the historical perspective of photochromism and photochromic behaviour of ‘Anils’. This phenomenon among ‘Anils’ is exhibited due to the tautomerism between enol and keto form via six membered hydrogen transfer between the phenolic hydrogen and imine nitrogen and show the phenomenon of s…

Charge dynamics in one-dimensional (1D) Mott insulators was investigated by femtosecond pump-probe absorption spectroscopy on ${\mathrm{Ca}}_{2}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{3}$. An irradiation of a femtosecond laser pulse gives rise to a Drude-like response due to the nature of spin-charge separation characteristic of 1D Mott insu…

Chirality's effects on physical properties of materials and how chirality arises have persisted as attractive issues in chemistry. We prepared a homologous series of achiral liquid crystal trimers in which three phenylpyrimidine units are connected via flexible heptamethylene spacers. An equimolecular mixture of a tri…

A critical limitation that has hampered widespread application of the electrically conducting reduced graphene oxide ( r -GO) is its poor aqueous dispersibility. Here we outline a strategy to obtain water-dispersible conducting r -GO sheets, free of any stabilizing agents, by exploiting the fact that the kinetics of t…

We present a general study of the magnetic excitations within a weak-coupling five-orbital model relevant to itinerant iron pnictides. As a function of enhanced electronic correlations, the spin excitations in the symmetry-broken spin-density wave phase evolve from broad low-energy modes in the limit of weak interacti…
