The whisker of polyoxymethylene produced in the cationic polymerization process of trioxane is a single crystal of extended chain crystal morphology. Since it has a quite small size of several microns in radius and several tens of microns in length, the crystal structure analysis of POM whisker had been tried by using…

The humidity-voltaic effect, i.e. generation of open-circuit voltage ( V oc ), in Au–porous silicon (PS) interface in humid atmosphere (up to 450 mV at 95% relative humidity) in dark and daylight illumination is discovered. The humidity-stimulated voltage generation is attributed to the splitting of water and hydrogen…

Abstract Electrospinning is a process that employs a high static electrical potential to produce polymeric fibers of nanoscale diameter. The process has been utilized to achieve color change by electrospinning black polymer solutions to produce white fiber mats. When subsequently heated, the electrospun mats undergo a…

Monolayers of lead selenide nanocrystals of a few nanometers in height have been made by electrodeposition on a Au(111) substrate. These layers show a thickness-dependent dielectric function, which was determined using spectroscopic ellipsometry. The experimental results are compared with electronic structure calculat…

We demonstrate the electrical and optical control of ferromagnetism in semiconductor heterostructures at high temperatures of 100–117 K. The heterostructures consist of Mn delta (δ)-doped GaAs and p -type AlGaAs. We are able to isothermally change the paramagnetic state to the ferromagnetic state and vice versa , by a…

The high frequency dynamics of glassy selenium has been studied by inelastic x-ray scattering at beam line BL35XU (SPring-8). The high quality of the data allows one to pinpoint the existence of a dispersing acoustic mode for wave vectors ($Q$) of $1.5<Q<12.5\text{ }{\mathrm{n}\mathrm{m}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$, hel…

Isolated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), SWNT bundles, and ropes (or strands) show a structural self-similar characteristic. By calculating the Hausdorff dimension, it was found that their self-similar organization leads to surface fractality and the value of the surface dimension ${(D}_{s})$ depends on self-s…

Dielectric relaxation in disordered dielectric mixtures is presented by emphasizing the interfacial polarization. The obtained results coincide with and cause confusion with those of the low frequency dispersion behaviour. The considered systems are composed of two phases on two-dimensional square and triangular topol…
