We have investigated the partial densities of states of Sr 2 FeMoO 6 by applying soft x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) to the Fe L, the Mo M and the O K edges. We discuss the results in the light of complementary measurements of the valence band by means of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and first-principles…
Abstract Crystal growth rates of paracetamol (4‐hydroxyacetanilide) have been determined by seeded isothermal desupersaturation experiments at 16 °C in 23 different solvent mixtures of water + acetone + toluene. Parameters of different growth rate equations have been estimated by direct nonlinear optimization. At equa…
Abstract An in‐line capillary rheometer nozzle equipped to a conventional reciprocating 55‐ton injection molding machine was used to study the viscosity of single phase low density polyethylene (LDPE)/chemical blowing agent (CBA) solutions under high shear rate in the concentration range of 0 to 5 wt%. The steady shea…
Overpoling phenomenon has been observed in flux-grown Pb(Mg1∕3Nb2∕3)O3–(31–32)%PbTiO3 single crystals when poled above 0.4kV∕mm at room temperature. This leads to increased property variations at intermediate poling fields (0.6–0.8kV∕mm) and to the degradation of piezoelectric properties at high poling fields (⩾1.0kV∕…
In this letter, we report on the study of nanoscale polarization relaxation phenomena in polycrystalline PbZr0.4Ti0.6O3 films. Piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) images of the as-grown sample reveal grains with a range of contrast, from fully white to gray to fully black. It is shown that this local change in the co…
Photopyroelectric high resolution ac calorimetry has been used to study the nematic-isotropic phase transition in octylcyanobiphenyl liquid crystal incorporating an aerosil soft gel. We have found that the sample is not in thermodynamic equilibrium in the two phase coexistence region, as shown by the frequency depende…
We perform experiments on two different dense colloidal suspensions with confocal microscopy to probe the relationship between local structure and dynamics near the glass transition. We calculate the Voronoi volume for our particles and show that this quantity is not a universal probe of glassy structure for all collo…
Reproduzierbar und einfach ist die hier beschriebene Synthese von mesoporösen dünnen Aluminiumoxidfilmen mit einem Polymertemplat. Die Filme haben eine Porosität von über 50 %, eine enge Porengrößenverteilung, eine hohe Zugänglichkeit und sind bis über 900°C thermisch stabil. Das anorganische Netzwerk besteht aus gesi…
Organic solvents are known to bring about dehydration of proteins, the molecular basis of which has remained uncharacterized. The dehydration effect in many cases leads to eventual unfolding of proteins through the macroscopic solvent effect. In some cases, the organic solvent molecules also bind to protein surfaces,…
Abstract Chemical bath deposition (CBD), a direct low cost technique that involves a cadmium salt solution, a complexing agent and a chalcogen source, was used to prepare CdSe semiconductor films. The most favourable conditions for acceptable quality CdSe films grown on glass were obtained. Commercially available micr…
Abstract The steady shear viscosity and dynamic viscoelastic properties of glass beads (GB) filled polycarbonate (PC) melts were studied at varying filler diameters and concentrations. The PC/GB composites containing small amounts of GB bore lower melt viscosity and dynamic modulus than those of pure PC at studied fre…
Pore and surface diffusion of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) and ethylene (C(2)H(4)) in the nanopores of ordered mesoporous silica fibers about 200 microm in length was measured by the transient gravimetric method. The experimentally determined pore diffusivity data, coupled with the porosity, pore size, and fiber length, are…
Abstract The influence of a new processing additive (particles of organically modified nanoclays) on the processibility of polyolefins in extrusion is studied. The equipment used includes an Instron capillary rheometer with two types of dies, namely capillary dies and special annular dies (Nokia Maillefer wire coating…
The synthesis, dual fluorescence, and fluoroionophoric behavior of two donor-sigma spacer-acceptor (D-s-A) compounds, trans-4-(N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)methylstilbene (1H) and trans-4-(N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)methyl-4'-cyanostilbene (1CN), are reported and compared to that of trans-4-(N,N-bis(2-pyridyl)amino)methyl-4'-…
Synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction was used to study Sc2Mo3O12 and Al2W3O12 at high pressure in a DAC. Both compounds adopt the orthorhombic Sc2W3O12 structure under ambient conditions and exhibit anisotropic negative thermal expansion. A phase transition from orthorhombic (Pnca) to monoclinic (P 21/a) symmetry was…
The preferred site of Mg segregation at Σ = 11(113) grain boundaries in Al and the effects of Mg segregation on grain boundary cohesion have been investigated through first-principle pseudopotential total energy calculations. The results show that the Mg atom prefers to occupy the ‘looser’ site at the grain boundary o…
The production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) involves a multigene pathway consisting of thiolase, reductase and synthase genes. In order to simplify this pathway for plant-based expression, a library of thiolase and reductase gene fusions was generated by randomly ligating a short core linker DNA sequence to create in-…
A meso-tetraaryl ruthenium porphyrin complex having four polymerizable vinylbenzoxy groups (2) has been synthesized by reaction of pyrrole with 4-(vinylbenzoxy)benzaldehyde and subsequent metalation with [Ru3(CO)12]. The porphyrin complex was immobilized by copolymerization with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The res…
A general approach based on the Parsons-Lee theory for soft repulsive molecular fluids is employed to investigate the nematogenic behavior of prolate thermotropic liquid crystals over a broad temperature range. The theory is solved for the particular case of the Kihara soft repulsive spherocylinder model, which is map…

The crystal lattice parameters change monotonically with increasing Fe substitution for Mn as found from x-ray powder diffraction and neutro nd iffraction investigations at room temperature.
