Hyperbranched polyglycerol as well as polyglycerol modified with short apolar oligo(propylene oxide) segments (DP n = 23−52; M w / M n = 1.2−1.4) was deprotonated with diphenylmethylpotassium and used as polyfunctional initiators for the anionic polymerization of ethylene oxide to prepare poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) mu…
A theory of resonant x-ray scattering in perovskite manganites is developed by applying the group theory to the correlation functions of the pseudospin operators for the orbital degree of freedom. It is shown that static and dynamical informations of the orbital state are directly obtained from the elastic, diffuse an…
We use the dynamical mean-field method to determine the origin of the large ratio of the zero temperature gap to the transition temperature observed in most charge density wave materials. The method is useful because it allows an exact treatment of thermal fluctuations. We establish the relation of the dynamical mean-…
New fields of research in chemistry and physics require improved synthetic techniques for colloidal metal particles. This paper reports a generally applicable technique for synthesizing colloidal Au particles of mean diameters between 20 and 100 nm that exhibit improved monodispersity relative to previously published…

The electronic structures of the mono- and bisammonia adducts EH3NH3 and EH3(NH3)2, E = B and Al, have been investigated using ab initio electronic structure methods. Geometries were optimized at the MP2/cc-pVTZ level. Higher-level correlated methods (MP4(SDTQ), QCISD(T), CCSD(T)), as well as the G2 and CBS-Q methods,…
Zinc− and magnesium−manganese oxide particles have been grown in the pores of MCM-41 using a procedure adapted from a mild synthesis for layered manganese oxides. The Mn-modified silicates were analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), N 2…

Using temperature-dependent Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, we probe the molecular level, chain-structural dynamics associated with solid−solid transitions between 25 and 250 °C in a layered inorganic−organic silver dodecanethiolate, AgS(CH 2 ) 11 CH 3 . Spectroscopic evidence presented here establishe…

This paper describes the synthesis of polystyrene (PS) brushes on silicate substrates via carbocationic polymerization from self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). Carbocationic initiators, 2-(4-(11-triethoxysilylundecyl)phenyl-2-methoxypropane and 2-(4-trichlorosilylphenyl)-2-methoxy- d 3 -propane, and their corresponding…
Multiarm block copolymers were synthesized via anionic ring-opening multibranching polymerization (ROMBP) of glycidol followed by addition of propylene oxide. The resulting polyether−polyols with molecular weights in the range 5000−12 000 g/mol possessed up to five propylene oxide units per end group and showed narrow…
We study the range of orientational order of a single layer of cylindrical block copolymer microdomains annealed on several types of substrates. The orientational persistence length or nematic correlation length (ξ) is evaluated using recently developed imaging and analysis methods to measure the grain size of the blo…
It is shown that the Abrikosov's vortex solution or its corresponding two-particle pair potential is not the solution of the self-consistency equation in Gor'kov's formalism. Since the self-consistency equation leads to a superposition of different types of off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) instead of one type of…
Multilayer thin films of sequentially adsorbed polyelectrolytes were utilized as nanoreactors for both metallic (Ag) and semiconductor nanoparticles (PbS). Polyelectrolyte multilayers with a controlled content of free carboxylic acid binding groups were fabricated with weak polyelectrolytes via suitable pH adjustments…
Utilization of layered polyelectrolyte films as sensor or ion-separation materials will depend critically on their stability and ion permeability in aqueous solution. We report electrochemical and in situ ellipsometric studies on the permeability and stability of poly(allylamine hydrochloride)/poly(styrenesulfonate) (…
The co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and organotrialkoxysilane molecules by neutral alkylamine surfactant assembly (S 0 I 0 ) is a convenient synthesis methodology for the one-step preparation of organically functionalized mesostructured materials. Two distinct approaches were considered for the formation o…
We have studied the compression and structure of compressed monolayers of sulfate polystyrene latex particles on air/water and octane/water interfaces. If compressed sufficiently (on a Langmuir trough) the monolayers at air/water surfaces give rafts of hexagonally packed particles, while those at oil/water interfaces…
This report describes the effect of solvent refractive index and core charge on the surface plasmon absorbance of alkanethiolate monolayer-protected gold clusters (MPCs). Solution spectra of dodecanethiolate MPCs (5.2 nm average diameter) reveal an 8-nm shift in plasmon band position as the solvent refractive index is…
Freon gas as chlorofluorocarbon or hydrofluorocarbon has been used as a refrigerant in air-conditioning systems. In particular, dichlorodifluoromethane (R12) and 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (R134a) have been widely used because of their outstanding chemical stability. Although they are being severe restricted because of…
