We have synthesized La1-xSrxMnO3 (with x=0.3, 0.33 & 0.4) perovskite nanoparticles using mild sol-gel technique at low temperature and thereby studied the effect of nanosize on magnetoresistance. These samples were characterized using TGA/DSC, XRD, TEM, FTIR and temperature dependent magnetoresistance (MR) measurement…
A new ferroelectric oxide (Li2Pb2Gd2W2Ti4Nb4O30) of the tungsten bronze structural family was synthesized using a high temperature solid-state reaction (i.e., mixed-oxide) method at 1100 o C. Room temperature structural analysis (XRD) shows the formation of a new compound in single phase. The ferroelectric phase trans…
Abstract The article describes the properties of acrylonitrile butadiene copolymer (NBR)–nanocalcium carbonate (NCC) nanocomposites prepared by a two‐step method. The amount of NCC was varied from 2 phr to 10 phr. Cure characteristics, mechanical properties, dynamic mechanical properties, thermal behavior, and transpo…
This work discusses the impact of structural and compositional factors on the dealloying behavior of different Au x Ag (1– x ) alloys. It has been found that the dealloying critical potential, E c, of (111) oriented alloys is systematically more positive than the one for polycrystalline alloys with identical compositi…
The electro-optical behavior of deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystal in reflective mode is described in this paper. The electrically controlled reflectance has been measured at subkilohertz driving voltage frequency for different polarizations of the incident light and compared quite successfully with the simul…
We have studied magnetism in anatase Ti1−xCoxO2−δ (x = 0.05) thin films with various electron carrier densities, by soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements at the Co L2,3 absorption edges. For electrically conducting samples, the magnetic moment estimated by XMCD was <0.3 μB/Co using the surface-sen…
Multiferroic molecules for spintronics: In a many-electron mixed-valence dimer with dominant double exchange, as compared with antiferromagnetic superexchange, the electric field is shown to induce a spin crossover from the ferromagnetic spin state to the antiferromagnetic one. This leads to a sharp decrease in the ma…
Circumventing radiation damage remains a major problem for X-ray macromolecular crystallography. Analysis of diffraction data collected from normal-sized cryocooled lysozyme crystals shows that the dose required to collect a data set of prescribed resolution and signal-to-noise ratio, assuming an ideally efficient det…
We have performed a detailed characterization of the optical properties of a holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal (LC) transmission grating with polymer scaffolding morphology, which was fabricated with conventional high-functionality acrylate monomer under low curing intensity. Temporal evolution of the grati…
Multibubble-sonoluminescence spectra from Ar-saturated KCl aqueous solutions were measured in the temperature range of 15-40 °C at frequencies of 48 kHz, 148 kHz, and 1 MHz. The effects of dissolved rare gases and the ultrasonic frequency on the shape of the K atom emission spectrum were examined. The line width of th…
We consider a finite number of particles with soft-core interactions, subjected to thermal fluctuations and confined in a box with excluded mutual passage. Using numerical simulations, we focus on the influence of the longitudinal confinement on the transient behavior of the longitudinal mean squared displacement. We…
Current limiters and constant current sources, which play important roles in electronic circuits, have been built up for many decades. Their thermal counterparts, heat current limiters and constant heat current sources, are still not available yet. By combining two typical nonlinear lattices, the Frenkel-Kontorova (FK…
Highly doped diamond films are new candidates for electrodes in reactive environments, such as electrocatalytic interfaces. Here the electronic structure of such films is investigated by X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the C 1s and B 1s edges, combined with X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as…
After radiography, white-beam X-ray topography (XRT) is the simplest X-ray imaging technique for crystals. An X-ray topograph is formed by a Bragg reflexion and is in effect a high-spatial-resolution Laue ‘spot’. Synchrotron radiation has given XRT additional powers, with its broad continuous spectrum, small beam dive…
This paper describes a new method for extracting the individual contributions to the diffracted intensity of subsets of atoms in the crystal structure. The periodic perturbation of the scattering process, required for untangling the scattered intensity, is provided by altering the resonant contributions. The theory of…
The structural properties of liquid GeSe(2) have been calculated by first-principles molecular dynamics by using a periodic simulation box containing N = 480 atoms. This has allowed a comparison with previous results obtained on a smaller system size (N = 120) [M. Micoulaut, R. Vuilleumier, and C. Massobrio, Phys. Rev…
The stable and robust cyclotriphosphazene and cyclotetraphosphazene rings were used as scaffolds to prepare hexa- and octaporphyrin arrays by treating N(3)P(3)Cl(6) and N(4)P(4)Cl(8), respectively, with 5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-10,15,20-tri(p-tolyl)porphyrin (N(4) core) or with its thiaporphyrin analogues (N(3)S and N(2)S(…
Abstract We demonstrate for the first time the feasibility in conducting the graft copolymerization of methylmethacrylate (MMA) with cellulose by the means of the reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization in an ionic liquid [1‐ N ‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium chloride] (BMIMCl). Cellulose was…
The effect of ring size on the photo-Favorskii induced ring-contraction reaction of the hydroxybenzocycloalkanonyl acetate and mesylate esters (7a-d, 8a-c) has provided new insight into the mechanism of the rearrangement. By monotonically decreasing the ring size in these cyclic derivatives, the increasing ring strain…
Erbium-containing materials of long lifetime and high Er density are important for achieving strong luminescence and high optical gain in compact integrated photonics devices. We have systematically studied the lifetime and crystal quality as a function of growth conditions for an erbium compound that we recently repo…
