A number of lanthanum strontium manganate/yttria-stabilized zirconia (LSM/YSZ) composite electrodes are produced with varying composition and processing parameters. The composites are investigated using impedance spectroscopy. General trends related to the oxygen reduction process are extracted from the impedance data…
Density functional theory is used to study the adsorption of carbon monoxide, oxygen and nitrogen on various Au/Pd(111) bimetallic alloy surfaces. By varying the Au content in the surface we are able to make a clear separation into geometrical (or ensemble) effects and electronic (or ligand) effects determining the ad…
Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil, Caelyx) is a formulation of doxorubicin in poly(ethylene glycol)-coated (stealth) liposomes with a prolonged circulation time and unique toxicity profile. We review the preclinical and clinical pharmacology as well as recent clinical data obtained in specific cancer types. Doxil…
The thermal decomposition of in a mixture (1:1 molar ratio) of ethylene carbonate (EC)/dimethyl carbonate (DMC) at 85°C is compared to the reaction between EC/DMC and gas. Both produce a brown solution and gaseous products. The reaction products from and in 1:1 EC/DMC, detected by gas chromatography, are similar. Prot…
A mechanism for distributing excess polymer surface charge is used to model the growth of multilayers of strongly charged polyelectrolytes. Two parameters are required for the semiempirical analysis: the surface, or unrestricted, charge overcompensation level, φ, which is assumed to decrease exponentially from the fil…
The solubility of small diameter single-wall carbon nanotubes in several organic solvents is described, and characterization in 1,2-dichlorobenzene is reported.
Fundamental and superior characteristics of heteropoly compounds (heteropolyoxometalates) in the solid state that make them suitable for catalyst design at the atomic/molecular levels are described, together with important principles required for the understanding and design of solid heteropoly catalysts. First, the m…
Description The desire to reduce generating costs by increasing thermal efficiency in power plants has resulted in a need for materials with improved high-temperature properties. Advanced ferritic/martensitic steels are prime candidates for such applications. Although these alloys were developed for application in nuc…
This paper discusses the influence of nonsinusoidal flux waveforms on the remagnetization losses in ferro- and ferrimagnetic materials of inductors, transformers, and electrical machines used in power electronic applications. The nonsinusoidal changes of flux originate from driving these devices by nonsinusoidal volta…
The electrochemical extraction and insertion of Na in was studied by in situ X-ray diffraction. All the original Na can be extracted from and it can be reversibly inserted again. When in the compound remains in the P2 structure. For a small amount of O2-type stacking faults are introduced into the structure. When the…
This perspective highlights recent research on the preparation of polyesters by the ring-opening polymerization of cyclic esters employing well-characterized metal complexes. Particular focus is placed on the preparation of polylactide because of environmental advantages: it is biodegradable and its feedstock, lactide…

Principles of Electronic Materials and Devices, Third Edition, is a greatly enhanced version of the highly successful text Principles of Electronic Materials and Devices, Second Edition. It is designed for a first course on electronic materials given in Materials Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Ph…
Abstract This technical report is a general introduction to organic photochromism. The definition of photochromism (PC) is given together with that of words with the ending "chromism", such as thermo-, electro-, piezo-, and tribochromism. Important concepts such as two-photon, gated, dual-mode PC and chirochromism are…
Biodegradable scaffolds have played an important role in a number of tissue engineering attempts over the past decade. The goal of this review article is to provide a brief overview of some of the important issues related to scaffolds fabricated from synthetic biodegradable polymers. Various types of such materials ar…
This paper provides an overview of the synthetic techniques used to prepare colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) of controlled composition, size, shape, and internal structure and the methods for manipulation of these materials into ordered NC assemblies (superlattices). High-temperature solution-phase synthesis (100–300°C) i…
Corrosion inhibition efficiencies of heterocyclic, unsaturated (aromatic and nonaromatic) compounds (pyrimidines, benzothiazole derivatives, amino acids containing an aromatic part, pyridines, and quinolines) were correlated with quantum chemical indices of the respective molecules. Inhibition efficiencies were determ…
A review of biocomposites highlighting recent studies and developments in natural fibers, bio-polymers, and various surface modifications of natural fibers to improve fiber-matrix adhesion is presented. One of the most important factors which determine the final performance of the composite materials is the quality of…
Nanocrystalline magnesium alloys having high tensile strength, high elevated-temperature tensile strength, high-strain-rate superplasticity and high thermal stability have been developed in Mg97Zn1Y2 (at%) alloy by rapidly solidified powder metallurgy (RS P/M) processing. The tensile yield strength and elongation that…
