The highly crowded arylbis(9-anthryl)methyl cations (structure shown) have now been prepared. Their stability is due to the doubly benzo-annelated structure of anthracene, which prevents Nazarov-type cyclization from taking place. The most remarkable feature of these cations is that they exhibit strong absorptions in…

Remote electron beam induced current (REBIC) and cathodoluminescence (CL) modes in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) have been used to investigate SnO2 sintered samples. The study of the electrically active boundaries present in the oxide shows a characteristic peak and trough (PAT) contrast after thermal treatme…

We previously proposed the use of solution stirring during the growth of protein crystals using the Micro-Stirring technique with a rotary shaker. In this paper, we report on the effects of a new type solution flow on the crystallization of hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) using a wave shaker. The time required for nucle…

A strong antibonding π interaction has been shown by density functional calculations (see LUMO MO graph) to be a key characteristic of two new CuI–diazene complexes with hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands. The complexes have been further characterized by X-ray crystallography as well as 1H NMR, UV/Vis absorption, IR,…

The insertion of a triethoxysilylated coumarin dye into the channels of zeolite L from CH 2 Cl 2 was examined. Fluorescence from the dye was observed only at the base planes of the cylindrical zeolite L crystals, indicating selective modification of the channel entrances. Leaching of the dye was observed when the mate…

Disorder in ${\mathrm{Gd}}_{2}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{7}$ is investigated by near-edge x-ray-absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). NEXAFS shows ${\mathrm{Ti}}^{4+}$ ions occupy octahedral sites with a tetragonal distortion induced by vacant oxygen sites. $\mathrm{O}\phan…

doi:10.1088/0022-3727/37/19/005 We report on the magnetic and martensitic transformation properties of Co39Ni33Al28 ferromagnetic shape memory alloy ribbons. We found that the phase formation of Co39Ni33Al28 is strongly dependent on the method of preparation. The conventional as-cast ingot sample contains a large amou…

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of 4-nitrothioanisole (4-NTA) is investigated in Ag sol. The molecule is found to adsorb on Ag as 4-NTA via the sulfur atom. Upon irradiation by an argon ion laser at 514.5 nm, the molecule is, however, subjected to two consecutive surface-induced photoreactions, namely C−S bon…

MTT (Tetrazolium)-assay suggests that diamond-like carbon (DLC) and silicon-doped DLC (Si-DLC) films obtained under appropriate deposition parameters are not toxic to bovine retinal pericytes, and human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC). The observed frequency distributions of the optical density (OD) values indi…

Divalent europium doped strontium di-aluminate (SrAl 4 O 7 : Eu 2+ ) nanocrystals have been synthesized using a facile sol–gel polymer thermolysis method. The photoluminescence characteristics of smaller particles (ϕ ∼ 15 nm) show a significant difference with respect to their bulk counterpart. In this nanocrystalline…

Abstract Although recent years have witnessed an impressive confluence of experiments and kinetic and statistical theories, presently there is no comprehensive understanding of the interrelation between chemical sequences in synthetic copolymers and the conditions of synthesis. For this problem, numerical simulations…

Multi-wall nanotubes (MWNTs) of carbon were produced by pulsed arc discharges between a room temperature sample and a counter-electrode, with peak currents of 7–100 A, and pulse lengths of 0.2–26 µs, in open air at selected locations on the sample. The samples were 10 × 10 mm 2 graphite plates, carbon-coated 200 mesh…

Recent experiments suggest that the high hydrogen storage capacity in graphite nanostructures might be associated with adsorption on the edges. First-principles calculations are used to study the structure and energetics of H chemisorption on graphite zigzag edges. The properties of both singly and doubly hydrogenated…
