Abstract Summary: Dispersing surface‐modified zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) in methyl methacrylate (MMA) improves the free radical bulk polymerization process as well as the thermal stability of the formed polymer. Hydroxy groups available on the ZnO surface may induce a degenerative transfer. This suppresses the gel…

High performance organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were implemented on transparent and conductive single-wall carbon nanotube sheets. At the maximum achieved brightness of 2800cdm−2 the luminance efficiency of our carbon nanotube-based OLED is 1.4cdA−1 which is comparable to the 1.9cdA−1 measured for an optimized…

We investigate the flowing behavior of dense suspensions of noncolloidal particles, by coupling macroscopic rheometric experiments and local velocity and concentration measurements through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques. We find that the flow is localized at low velocities, and that the material is inhomo…

The polymer‐based synthesis of ceramics such as SiCO (and SiCN) leads to the incorporation of significant amounts of carbon into their molecular structure. A key feature of the nanostructure of these polymer‐derived ceramics is the revelation of persistent, 1–5 nm size domains by small‐angle X‐ray scattering. Here we…

Worthy of merit: The new class of nanostructured p-type thermoelectrics Na1−xPbmSbyTem+2 is reported. The exceptionally high thermoelectric figures of merit ZT of these materials (see graph), which exceed those of the state-of-the-art materials PbTe and (GeTe)1−x((Ag2Te)1−y(Sb2Te3)y)x (TAGS), derive from their very lo…

Electrospinning is a remarkably simple method for generating nanofibers of polymers. When combined with conventional sol–gel processing, it provides a versatile technique for producing ceramic nanofibers with either a solid, porous, or hollow structure. This article presents a brief overview of recent progress in prep…

Nanocrystalline Ni–NiAl 2 O 4 –YSZ cermet with a possible application as anode in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) has been developed. The powders were prepared by using an alternative solid-state method that includes the use of nickel acetylacetonate as an inorganic precursor to obtain a highly porous material after si…

Low-frequency Raman spectra of densified silica glasses, annealed at different temperatures and possessing various densities, are studied. The dependence of the fast relaxation intensity versus the density can be described by linear laws below and above the density 2.26 g cm −3 , but the slope of the linear law below…
