In this paper, we discuss the utility of thin film deposition as a synthetic approach to the realization of new oxide materials. Thin film deposition has been shown previously to be well suited to stabilizing both highly metastable phases and superlattices having unique atomic order which are not attainable via classi…

Grafted adsorbing polymers are investigated with the Scheutjens−Fleer self-consistent field model. The surface pressure of such systems is calculated numerically and semiquantitative agreement is found with experimental surface pressure isotherms of PS−PEO diblock copolymers at the air/water interface. Scaling relatio…

Two equilibrium intermediates have previously been observed in the urea denaturation of the alpha subunit of tryptophan synthase (alphaTS) from Escherichia coli, an eight-stranded beta/alpha barrel protein. In the current study, a series of amino-terminal fragments were characterized to probe the elementary folding un…

The effect of fatigue on the electrical properties of sol-gel derived ferroelectric barium titanate (BaTiO3) thin films have been investigated. At room temperature, the resistivity, breakdown field, dielectric constant (ε), and loss tangent (tan δ) decreases after fatigue while the coercive field increases. Fatigue al…

We have studied the coupling of aggregation and crystallization in a mixture of colloidal spheres and colloidal rods. Taking advantage of specially prepared fluorescent silica spheres we are able to investigate this process at the particle level by fluorescense confocal microscopy. We find that above a limiting concen…

A series of D2-symmetric chiral trans-dioxoruthenium(VI) porphyrins can effect enantioselective epoxidation of trans-β-methylstyrene in up to 70% ee, and 76% ee is attained for the oxidation of cinnamyl chloride; the facial selection for the trans-alkenes epoxidation is explained by a ‘head-on approach’ model.

The diffusion and bonding of NOx (x=1, 2) and Cu2+ species in zeolites are reviewed, based mainly on our own research. The molecular motion of adsorbed NO2 has been examined with EPR in several zeolite samples and analyzed using the slow-motional EPR theory. In X- and Y-type zeolites the broadening of the spectra with…

Polarization and morphological characteristics of thin ZnO films deposited on tin‐coated glass electrodes are presented. The films were obtained at a low temperature by an electrolytic process, where the cathode potential is an important control variable. The process is also promising as an electrochemical doping tech…
