Radiation-induced damage during plasma processing of semiconductor materials can adversely affect device reliability. However, it has been shown that vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation (8–20 eV) can beneficially deplete previously deposited charge on the surface of dielectrics by temporarily increasing their conductiv…
Abstract Summary: Pulsed‐IR laser‐induced decomposition of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAC) differs remarkably from its conventional pyrolysis, which results in the formation of acetic acid and non‐polar carbonaceous residue. In contrast, the products in the former case are (i) vinyl acetate (low energy channel), (ii) produ…
Creep motion of the charge-density wave (CDW) and its change through optical excitation in the low-temperature plastic state of ${\mathrm{K}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MoO}}_{3}$ is analyzed in terms of a local pinning theory. The nonlinear $I\text{\ensuremath{-}}V$ curve below the sliding threshold field can be well reproduced w…

Abstract Ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer is studied as a host for low concentrations, up to 1 wt%, of organically treated clay. The clay develops a high interaction level with EVOH and thus high torque levels accompany the structuring process leading to the formation of nanocomposites. Extrusion residence time…
Tetranuclear heterometallic complexes, [Tb2Zn2(Bzo)10(phen)2] (1) and [Tb2Zn2(TPA)10(phen)2] (2) ( , phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), were synthesized by the rheological phase reaction method and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and X-ray crystallography. Both complexes are tetrameric and the carboxylate ligands di…
Abstract ABA triblock copolymers of L ‐lactide (LL) and ε ‐caprolactone (CL), designated as PLL‐P(LL‐co‐CL)‐PLL, were synthesized via a two‐step ring‐opening polymerization in bulk using diethylene glycol and stannous octoate as the initiating system. In the first‐step reaction, an approximately 50:50 mol% P(LL‐co‐CL)…
In fcc crystals, dislocations are dissociated on the {111} glide plane into pairs of partial dislocations. Since each partial interacts individually with the Peierls potential and is coupled to its neighbour by a stacking fault, periodic variations in the separation distance d of the partials occur when dislocations r…
The electric-field-induced birefringence has been investigated by using a photoelastic modulator, with a view to obtaining a molecular model for the subphases produced by the frustration between ferroelectricity and antiferroelectricity in the chiral smectic liquid crystals. It has been found that even in the bulk, th…
Abstract The development of composites displaying electrical conductivity has attracted significant research attention over the last decade due to the possibility of new applications. For the first time, we describe the preparation of composites in which perlite particles have been combined with the well‐known conduct…
A sodium calcium borate, NaCaBO3, has been synthesized by the solid-state reaction method and the structure solved from X-ray powder diffraction data. The compound crystallizes in space group Pmmn and has a desired structure type containing isolated planar BO3(3-) anions. Mixed occupancy is found to exist in the Ca si…
Nanoscale particles of metals such as gold can interact with light by means of a plasmon resonance, even though they are much smaller than the wavelengths of visible light. The proportions of light that are absorbed and scattered vary with wavelength. Any light that is absorbed will cause heating of the particles, and…
This study uses molecular dynamics simulations performed in a parallel computing environment to investigate the adsorption of water molecules surrounding Au nanoparticles of various sizes. An observation of the oxygen and hydrogen atom distributions reveals that the adsorption of the water molecules creates two shell-…
Abstract. This article describes a topological theory of quasiperiodic functions on the plane. The development of this theory was started (in different terminology) by the Moscow topology group in early 1980s. It was motivated by the needs of solid state physics, as a partial (nongeneric) case of Hamiltonian foliation…
The compound Al6Ti2O13 (hexaaluminium dititanium tridecaoxide) has been synthesized using an arc-imaging furnace, which allows fast cooling of melted oxides. The structure consists of infinite double chains of polyhedra running along the c axis. These chains are built up by four kinds of strongly distorted oxygen octa…
A self-aligned air-gap interconnect process was proposed. The key features include: 1) a simple process using a conventional Cu damascene process; 2) the combination of a sacrificial layer and a dry-etching process that do not cause any damage to Cu wires; 3) a self-aligned, maskless structure for gap formation; and 4…
Molecular interactions giving rise to stable complexes between an uncharged water soluble cobalt-porphyrin and amino acids are investigated by time-resolved fluorescence, uv-vis, and circular dichroism measurements. This metalloporphyrin seems to act, by means of the coordination site of the cobalt of the core, as a r…
Fluorite-related ceramics have attracted considerable attention as potential host materials for the immobilisation of radionuclides. Here we have used computer simulation to investigate the relative solution energies and mechanisms for Pu3+, Pu4+ and U4+ accommodation in an extensive range of A2B2O7 pyrochlore compoun…
Cinnamic acids have been prepared in moderate to high yields by a new direct synthesis using aromatic aldehydes and aliphatic carboxylic acids, in the presence of boron tribromide as reagent, 4-dimethylaminopyridine (4-DMAP) and pyridine (Py) as bases and N-methyl-2-pyrolidinone (NMP) as solvent, at reflux (180-190 de…
Mechanical stress–strain behavior of LaCoO 3 , La 0.8 Ca 0.2 CoO 3 , and La 0.7 Ca 0.3 CoO 3 was studied under compression at 25° and 300°C. A hysteresis in the stress–strain relationship due to reorientation of ferroelastic domains (deformation twins) was observed, and a remanent strain is measured after unloading. T…
