Abstract Polymer based nanocomposites were prepared using brominated poly(isobutylene‐ co ‐paramethylstyrene) (BIMS) rubber and octadecyl amine modified montmorillonite nanoclay. The effect of nature and loading of carbon black on these nanocomposites and the control BIMS was investigated thoroughly using X‐ray diffra…
Spherical-particle assemblies (see Figure) are fabricated by micropatterning of methanol droplets containing SiO2. Hydrophilic regions of a patterned self-assembled monolayer (SAM) are covered with methanol solution containing SiO2 particles and immersed in decahydronaphthalene. The particles assemble to form micropat…
Film-forming conditions (cast solvents and film-forming technique: casting or spin-coating) are found to regulate the surface free energy of a diblock copolymer composed of methyl methacrylate and 2-perfluorooctylethyl methacrylate (PMMA-b-PFEMA). The surface properties and structures both in the solid state and in th…
The magnetic and transport properties of Mn-doped ZnO thin films codoped with Sn are examined. Superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry measurements indicate that the films are ferromagnetic with an inverse correlation between magnetization and electron density as controlled by Sn doping. Magnetism in…
High magnetic fields are shown to be remarkably effective to orient self-assembled 2,3-bis-n-decyloxyanthracene (DDOA) fibers during organogel preparation. Magnetic orientation of DDOA results in a highly organized material displaying a fiber-orientation order parameter of 0.85, a large linear birefringence, and fluor…
Ti(IV)-monosubstituted Keggin-type polyoxometalates (Ti-POMs), mu-oxo dimer [Bu4N]8[(PTiW11O39)2O] (1), and three monomers [Bu4N]4[PTi(L)W11O39], where L = OH (2), OMe (3), and OAr (4, ArOH = 2,3,6-trimethylphenol (TMP)), have been prepared starting from mu-hydroxo dimer [Bu4N]7[(PTiW11O39)2OH] (5) or heteropolyacid H…
The formation of carbon nanotubes in a pure carbon arc in a helium atmosphere is found to involve liquid carbon. Electron microscopy shows a viscous liquid-like amorphous carbon layer covering the surfaces of nanotube-containing millimeter-sized columnar structures from which the cathode deposit is composed. Regularly…
In this letter we present a convenient way of controlling the direction of the uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy in arrays of electrodeposited hcp Co nanowires. Combining electron microscopy and ferromagnetic resonance measurements, it is shown that using an appropriate pH of the electrolytic solution, the hcp c…
Abstract Synthesized shape‐memory polyurethane (PU) block copolymers were used to prepare electrospun nonwovens via electrospinning. PU solutions were prepared with a mixed solvent of N,N ‐dimethylformamide and tetrahydrofuran. The electrospun PU nonwovens were prepared with hard‐segment concentrations of 40 and 50 wt…
Supported gold catalysts have drawn worldwide interest due to the novel properties and potential applications in industries. However, the origin of the catalytic activity in gold nanoparticles is still not well understood. In this study, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (TOF-SIMS) has been applied to inv…
Mesoporous titanosilicates with 1-12 mol % Ti content and with three-dimensional wormhole-like mesoporosity are prepared by a modified sol-gel technique. Sorption analysis shows that there is little change in the surface properties with increasing Ti concentration in the samples, implying that Ti atoms either are well…
Bulk Mn-doped Cu2O samples were produced by reacting Cu2O and Mn2O3 powders in Ar gas at 650 and 800°C to give a nominal composition of 1.7at.% Mn-doped Cu2O. From x-ray energy dispersive spectrum analysis, the actual doping level was lower at 0.3–0.5at.% Mn. Room temperature ferromagnetism with a coercive field of 50…
We reanalyze the pressure dependence of viscosity of liquids of constant composition under isothermal conditions. Based exclusively on very general considerations concerning the relationship between viscosity and "free volume," we show that, at moderate values of pressure, viscosity increases, as a rule, with increasi…
In this study, an approach using an atomic force microscope (AFM) tip to stretch a single electrospun polyethylene oxide (PEO) nanofiber is demonstrated. One end of the nanofiber is attached to a movable optical microscope stage and the other end of the nanofiber to a piezoresistive AFM cantilever tip. The nanofiber i…
A phase transition in an amphiphilic mesophase is explored to deliberately induce mechanical strain in an assembly of tightly coupled metal ion coordination centers. Melting of the alkyl chains in the amphiphilic mesophase causes distortion of the coordination geometry around the central transition metal ion. As a res…
Abstract The solubility parameters of polylactide (PLA), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), and various disperse dyes calculated according to the group contribution method were used to explain the low sorption of some disperse dyes on PLA but the high sorption of the same dyes on PET. It was found that the dyes with…
The quasiparticle spectra in the metallic rutile and insulating monoclinic phases of $\mathrm{V}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ are shown to be dominated by local Coulomb interactions. In the rutile phase the small orbital polarization among V $3d$ ${t}_{2g}$ states leads to weak static but strong dynamical correlations. In the mon…
Gold colloids are well known to display strong plasmon absorption bands due to electron oscillations induced by the incident light. When the colloids are in proximity, the plasmon absorption bands are often perturbed. This has enabled us recently to successfully develop a glucose sensing platform based on the disassoc…
An ultra fast bit addressing scheme for magnetic random access memories (MRAM) in a crossed wire geometry is proposed. In the addressing scheme a word of cells is programmed simultaneously by sub nanosecond field pulses making use of the magnetization precession of the free layer. Single spin simulations of the free l…
Abstract Summary: Both intercalated and exfoliated poly( L , L ‐lactide) (P( L , L ‐LA)/organomodified montmorillonite nanocomposites were synthesized by in situ ring‐opening polymerization of L , L ‐lactide, in bulk, directly in the presence of the nanofiller. Intercalation of polyester chains was found to appear eve…
