Nonlocal response of the surface to the incident light is included into an ab initio one-step photoemission theory. Surface-state normal emission spectra from Be(0001) and Al(100) are calculated by a full-potential scattering method and are found to agree well with the experiment in a wide energy range. The total exci…

Polysiloxanes polymer coatings were formed on carbon fiber‐reinforced silicon carbide (C/SiC) composites at 100°C in air with barium–strontium aluminosilicate (BSAS) as fillers. After the polymeric coatings were pyrolyzed at 1350°C under argon, a dense SiOC–BSAS‐coated C/SiC composite was obtained. The oxidation test…

We determined the stability of the LiBH 4 /CeH 2 composite system by dynamic pcT (pressure, composition, temperature) measurements by using different constant hydrogen flows and by extrapolating ln( p des / p 0 ) linearly to equilibrium at zero flow. During desorption, the reaction 6LiBH 4 + CeH 2 → 6LiH + CeB 6 + 10H…

We report a unique method to directly fabricate complex polymer brush structures with nanometer scale features by means of electron beam lithography. Polymer brushes for direct patterning were grown from surface-anchored initiator sites using atom transfer radical polymerization. Selected monomers (poly(2-hydroxyethyl…

Using pyridine as a probe molecule, we performed surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) studies on platinum and gold nanodisk arrays at both plasmon resonant and off-plasmon resonant excitation wavelengths. A large Raman cross-section enhancement factor (EF) of ∼10 6 was obtained with plasmon resonant excitation o…

We present the results of an optical and chemical, depth and surface study of Al/Mo/SiC periodic multilayers, designed as high reflectivity coatings for the extreme ultra-violet (EUV) range. In comparison to the previously studied Al/SiC system, the introduction of Mo as a third material in the multilayer structure al…

The objective of this research is to evaluate microwave sintering as a viable technique to reliably process high‐strength mullite and mullite–zirconia composites. In this report, the advantage of microwave processing over conventional heating is realized by comparing the densification behavior and mechanical propertie…

A fundamental understanding of isobaric thermal expansion behavior is critical in all areas of glass science and technology. Current models of glass transition and relaxation behavior implicitly assume that the thermal expansion coefficient of glass-forming systems can be expressed as a sum of vibrational and configur…

The importance of the photothermal effect in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurements is addressed. Strong temperature gradient (≈106 K m−1) induced by photothermal effect can force molecules to move. Finally, redistributed molecules can result in a nonuniform SERS intensity.

Dielectric properties of undoped and manganese (Mn)‐doped titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) ceramics were measured by various test methods including impedance spectroscopy techniques. It was found that direct current conductivity and dielectric loss were effectively suppressed by small amount (∼0.05 mol%) of Mn doping due to…

Cobalt−rhenium based catalysts were prepared by coimpregnation from two different cobalt precursors: cobalt nitrate [CoRe(N)] and cobalt acetate [CoRe(A)]. They were characterized by H 2 -TPR, ICP, XRD, DRIFTS, and activity/selectivity in CO hydrogenation. The results showed that precursors have a significant effect o…

BACKGROUND: Thermophilic, Gram-positive, anaerobic bacteria (TGPAs) are generally recalcitrant to chemical and electrotransformation due to their special cell-wall structure and the low intrinsic permeability of plasma membranes. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here we established for any Gram-positive or thermophiles…

First‐order reversal curve (FORC) distributions as well as the ac field dependence of the dielectric permittivity were investigated for model BaTiO 3 ‐based multilayer ceramic capacitors in which the dielectric grain size was varied from 0.28 to 0.39 μm. It was found that as the grain size decreased, the high‐field di…

Nanocomposites have been shown to significantly reduce the peak heat release rate, as measured by cone calorimetry, for many polymers but they typically have no effect on the oxygen index or the UL-94 classification. In this review, we will cover what is known about the processes by which nanocomposite formation may b…
