Abstract A new class of discotic liquid crystals based on 2, 4, 6-triphenyl-1, 3, 5-triazine as a core and [(4-alkoxyphen-yl)ethynyl] benzene ester as rigid arms has been synthesized by a Pd(0)/Cu(I)-catalyzed carbon–carbon coupling reaction. The obtained compounds exhibited liquid-crystalline properties.

A technique for analyzing the magnetic field in anisotropic material using the effective anisotropic reluctivity proposed by Enokizono is examined. It is shown that the Enokizono model can be transformed into another model having a conventional form. By expanding the examination of such a conventional form, a new fini…

The phase transitions and dynamical behavior of superlattices consisting of equal-thickness layers of a perovskite ferroelectric (KNbO3) and a perovskite paraelectric (KTaO3) are explored using molecular-dynamics simulation. We find that the response in the plane and in the modulation direction are essentially decoupl…

Abstract Square tori are transformed into hexagonal and other tiling tori by several cutting procedures. The toroidal objects thus generated are optimized by a molecular mechanics procedure. The strain energy, defined as the difference between the energy of toroidal structure and the energy of its corresponding straig…

Abstract Magnesium-aluminum oxide (Mg-Al oxide) was shown to be superior to CO32- intercalated hydrotalcite (CO3-HT) for removing dilute hydrochloric acid. Cl- in a 0.5 M HCl solution could be quantitatively removed by adding 1.75-times the stoichiometric quantity of Mg0.70Al0.20O at 60 °C for 1 h. The solution after…

This work concerns the effects of the filler size on cell nucleation during the foaming process. The cell density of foams with fillers of two different sizes has been investigated using the foaming process simulator developed previously. It was found that the cell density is strongly affected by the filler size. Foam…

We report a study of the diffusion of weakly interacting colloidal spheres in a one-dimensional groove using digital video microscopy. At a time much shorter than the direct interaction time, τ I , the spheres diffuse according to Fick's law. The packing fraction dependence of the short-time diffusion coefficient is m…

A técnica de difração de raios X tem sido amplamente utilizada para a determinação de fases cristalinas em materiais cerâmicos. Em argilas, a grande quantidade de quartzo e seu elevado grau de orientação dificultam a identificação e caracterização das demais fases presentes. Baseando-se no princípio da sedimentação, é…

We present novel scattering-type displays using antiferroelectric smectic phases of liquid crystals of bent-shaped molecules. There can be two distinct states (‘racemic’ and ‘chiral’) that work in opposite ways. The racemic structure is scattering in the OFF state and is optically clear under electric fields. The chir…

Metal-free tetraazachlorin (TAC), -bacteriochlorin (TAB), and -isobacteriochlorin (TAiB) were characterized by electronic absorption, magnetic circular dichroism (MCD), fluorescence, and time-resolved ESR (TR-ESR) spectroscopy, and by cyclic voltammetry. The results are compared with those of metal-free tetraazaporphy…

We investigate the blue photoluminescence of Si+-implanted SiO2 films under picosecond UV excitation. The emission intensity exhibits a nonlinear increase with increasing excitation intensities, accompanied by pulse shortening. The photoluminescence decays nonmonoexponentially in time. However, the nonlinearities are…

Interaction forces between flame-polished glass surfaces were measured in a range of aqueous solutions of a branched cationic polyelectrolyte, polyethylenimine (PEI) MW ≈ 70 000 g/mol. Short incubation in 1 ppm PEI solution leads to neutralization of the glass negative surface charge. At this point the interaction for…

The perovskites LaMnO(3) and CaFeO(3) consisting of high-spin d(4) transition metal ions undergo different types of distortions, i.e., a Jahn-Teller distortion in LaMnO(3) and a charge disproportionation in CaFeO(3). We investigated the electronic factor causing this difference on the basis of first principles spin-po…
