The squaraine dye bis(2,4,6-trihydroxyphenyl)squaraine (SqH) was earlier reported to form J-type dimer aggregates in acetonitrile solutions at higher concentrations. Subsequent studies have suggested that concentration-dependent changes in the absorption spectrum of SqH in acetonitrile could be attributed to shifts in…

We employ the distance matrix method to investigate metabasin dynamics in supercooled water. We find that the motion of the system consists in the exploration of a finite region of configuration space (enclosing several distinct local minima), named metabasin, followed by a sharp crossing to a different metabasin. The…

In order to apply ab initio wave-function-based correlation methods to metals, it is desirable to split the calculation into a mean-field part and a correlation part. Whereas the mean-field part (here Hartree-Fock) is performed in the extended periodic system, it is necessary to use for the correlation part local wave…

Airborne clay mineral particles have long atmospheric lifetimes due to their relatively small size. To assess their impact on trace atmospheric gases, we investigated heterogeneous reactions on prototype clay minerals. Diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy identified surface-adsorbed products formed from the uptak…

Detailed structural and magnetic measurements were performed on nanostructured composite thin films of cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4-magnetostrictive) dispersed in a barium titanate (BaTiO3-piezoelectric) matrix, with different CoFe2O4 concentrations (ranging from x=20% to x=70%). The films were deposited by laser ablation…

Experimental development of dynamic models for the saturable reactor for HVDC applications was made by taking account of the effects of the eddy-current, the air gap, and the nonlinear magnetisation of the cores of the 3% grain-oriented silicon steels used. The experimentally developed models were confirmed by compari…

The atomic and electronic structures of the BaTiO 3 (110) polar surface were systematically investigated by first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations with use of slab models. The relaxations and rumplings of five different (1 × 1) terminations were considered. According to the results of the charge…

Charged and uncharged colloidal systems are known from experiment to display an extremely rich phase behavior, which is ultimately determined by the effective pair potential between particles in solution. As a confirmation, the recent striking observation of an equilibrium cluster phase in charged globular protein sol…
