This letter describes the preparation and characterization of a novel porous ceramic material via the burning of the polylactide/layered silicate nanocomposite. WAXD patterns indicate that an amorphous structure was developed in the porous ceramic material after sintering the nanocomposite. SEM observation revealed a…

The conjugation of nanoparticles (NPs) typically yields supramolecular materials which are fairly rigid, and the electronic coupling between the NP and other structural units of these compounds is fixed by covalent bonds. Here, we report on a novel bichromophor system constructed from a quantum dot tethered to a semic…

The choice of support and catalyst materials has been proved to be critical to scalable chemical vapor deposition (CVD) synthesis of carbon nanotubes. In our study, we found that porous MgO prepared by thermal decomposition of its salts was an eminent support material for CVD growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (…

We have investigated the effect of particle shape on the eletrorotation (ER) spectrum of living cells suspensions. In particular, we consider coated oblate spheroidal particles and present a theoretical study of ER based on the spectral representation theory. Analytic expressions for the characteristic frequency as we…

Three-dimensional and thermally stable mesoporous TiO2 was synthesized without the use of any surfactants via treatment with high intensity ultrasound irradiation for a short period of time. Monodispersed TiO2 sol particles were formed initially by ultrasound-assisted hydrolysis of acetic acid-modified titanium isopro…

We investigated thermoelectric power $S(T)$ of MgB$_{2-x}$Be$_{x}$ ($x=0$, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.6). $S(T)$ decreases systematically with $x$, suggesting that the hole density increases. Our band calculation shows that the increase occurs in the $σ$-band. With the hole-doping, $T_{c}$ decreases. Implication of this phe…

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) of sequentially evaporated Fe-Ag structures have been investigated. Direct experimental evidence is given that inserting ferromagnetic layers into a granular structure significantly enhances the magnetoresistance. The increase of the GMR effect is attributed to spin polarization effects.…

We study theoretically situations where competition arises between an interdiffusion process and a cross-linking chemical reaction at interfaces between pieces of the same polymer material. An example of such a situation is observable in the formation of latex films, where, in the presence of a cross-linking additive,…

From systematic ab initio calculations of the alloy system Mg_{1-x}Al_{x}B_2, we find a strong tendency for the formation of a superstructure characterized by Al-rich layers. We also present a simple model, based on calculated energies and an estimate of the configurational entropy, which suggests that the alloy has t…

Antisite disordering in ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2}{\mathrm{FeMoO}}_{6}$ double perovskites (containing Mo atoms at Fe positions, and vice versa) has recently been shown to have a dramatic influence in their magnetic and magnetotransport properties. In the present paper, two polycrystalline ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2}{\mathrm{FeMoO}}_{…

In this work, a question is tackled concerning the formation of a superconducting condensate in an earlier proposed model of "elastic jelly", in which phonons of the ion system play the part of initiating ones. It was shown that in distinction from the BCS theory, the momenta of forming electron pairs are different fr…

We show that backflow, the coupling between the order parameter and the velocity fields, has a significant effect on the motion of defects in nematic liquid crystals. In particular, the defect speed can depend strongly on the topological strength in two dimensions and on the sense of rotation of the director about the…

Massively cross-linked and property-tunable membranes have been fabricated by free radical polymerization of self-assembled, block copolymer vesicles − polymersomes. Similar efforts with cross-linkable lipids would appear frustrated in the past due to at least two factors: limited reactivity and membrane fragility und…

We have grown epitaxial NdNiO3 films on Si(100) substrate under ambient oxygen pressure using a pulsed-laser deposition method. The integration of NdNiO3 with Si(100) was accomplished by lattice-matching epitaxy of MgO and SrTiO3 and domain matching epitaxy of TiN on Si(100). During domain matching epitaxy, four latti…

A bubble translating through a continuous liquid (i.e. Newtonian) phase moves as a sphere when inertial and viscous forces are small relative to capillary forces. Spherical bubbles with stress-free interfaces do not retain wakes at their trailing ends as inertial forces become important (increasing Reynolds number). T…

Mn(hfac)2 and Cu(hfac)2 form 1:1 complexes with 5-(4-[N-tert-butyl-N-aminoxyl]phenyl)pyrimidine that exhibit strong metal-nitroxide exchange; spin polarization models do not explain the antiferromagnetic exchange behavior between spin sites in these complexes.

In ferroelectric thin films, a decrease of the permittivity is observed obeying a logarithmic time dependence. In the literature, a similar effect has been reported for ferroelectric single crystals and ceramics, which is referred to as ferroelectric aging, and different models have been proposed to explain this pheno…

Abstract In this paper, we present a macroscopic numerical model that is capable of capturing the interaction between the double‐diffusive convective field and a localized fluid flow on account of solutal undercooling during non‐equilibrium solidification of binary alloys.
