Na(0.40(2))MnO(2) belongs to a family of mixed Mn(3+) and Mn(4+) porous oxides that contains both octahedral and square pyramidal Mn-O units. Neutron and synchrotron radiation studies identify the presence of both sodium ordering (T(Na) ≈ 310 K) and Mn charge and orbital ordering. Below T(Na), the centrosymmetric Pbam…

Spark plasma joining is used to join ZrB 2 –SiC composites with seamless microstructures at the joint that results in retention of high‐temperature mechanical and oxidation properties after joining. Our approach uses a spark plasma sintering furnace and Zr–B powder filler layers to join the parts together. The joining…

The intumescent flame retardant polylactide/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (IFR-PLA/POSS) composites were prepared via a melt blending method. The morphology of the PLA nanocomposites was assessed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and tensile tests showed that the incor…

We describe a numerical scheme for exactly simulating the heat current behavior in a quantum harmonic chain with self-consistent reservoirs. Numerically exact results are compared to classical simulations and to the quantum behavior under the linear-response approximation. In the classical limit or for small temperatu…

Pronounced and stable pseudocapacitance has been found in flowerlike FeTiO 3 nanostructures that were synthesized from ball-milled ilmenite (natural mineral) under mild hydrothermal conditions. Each nanoflower is composed of many thin petals with a thickness of 5–20 nm and a width of 100–200 nm. The formation of these…

We compared the results of first-principles calculations with measured absorption spectra in thin films of delafossite-type Cu$M$O${}_{2}$ ($M$ $=$ Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, and Co) taken at 10 K. Two optical transitions were found: one is associated with Cu3d $+$ O2$P$ \ensuremath{\rightarrow} Cu3${d}_{{\mathrm{z}}^{2}}$ $+$ 4…

Summary Pure zein films are known to be very hydrophobic, but are inappropriate for edible coating applications because of their brittle nature. In an attempt to improve the flexibility of these coatings, the influence of low concentrations of oleic acid (OA) as a plasticiser on mechanical, topographical and wetting p…

Alumina was synthesized via sol-gel technique by the hydrolysis of aluminium ion controlled by urea in aqueous media. The resulting sol composed of Al(OH) 3 particles coalesced and became a transparent gel. The freshly prepared gel was heated at 280C to obtain alumina particles. The obtained particles were found to be…

Using first-principles density functional calculations, we study the electronic structure of double perovskite compound, La${}_{2}$CoMnO${}_{6}$, which is reported to be ferromagnetic insulator with a Curie temperature of about 240 K. Our calculations show that the insulating state in this compound is driven by Coulom…

It is shown that the surface of an epitaxial graphene monolayer grown on Ru(0001) could be used as a quite efficient external mirror for He-atom microscopy, with a specular reflectivity of $20%$ of the incident beam. Furthermore, the system is stable up to 1150 K, and the He reflectivity remains almost unchanged after…

A magnetoelectric (ME) phenomenon in a multiferroic composite consisting of magnetization-graded ferromagnetic and ferroelectric phases is discussed. The traditional strain mediated coupling in such composites arises due to magnetostriction and piezoelectric effects associated with the ferroic phases. Such an ME effec…
