We consider a wedge dislocation in the framework of elasticity theory and the geometric theory of defects. We show that the geometric theory reproduces quantitatively all the results of elasticity theory in the linear approximation. The coincidence is achieved by introducing a postulate that the vielbein satisfying th…

We report on a two-step process for the fabrication of nanoporous nanowires. The fabrication process involves electrochemical deposition of a single-phase binary alloy into a nanoporous template, followed by subsequent etching of the less noble component. These particles are characterized by diameters of 20 nm or larg…

We report a general approach toward dispersing single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in solvents and polymer materials, by encapsulating SWNTs within cross-linked micelles. Micelles made from polystyrene-block-poly(acrylic acid) (PS-b-PAA), an amphiphilic block copolymer, are first assembled around SWNTs by gradually…

The recently discovered stable semicrystalline phase in binary ultralong alkanes is studied by small-angle neutron and x-ray scattering. Either the shorter or the longer alkane has (CD2)11CD3 ends. It is confirmed that chains are tilted in the crystal layer and found that ca. seven end carbons of the shorter alkane ar…

We studied the living nature on the formation of hyperbranched poly(methacrylic acid ester) by free radical photopolymerization of 2-( N,N- diethyldithiocarbamyl)ethyl methacrylate (DTEM) in benzene. We performed the first-order time−conversion plots in this polymerization system, and the straight line in the semiloga…

A new and reliable formulation has been developed for the preparation of gel−glass dispersed liquid crystal (GDLC) thin films using the sol−gel technique. Liquid crystal (LC) droplets were formed in-situ during the drying process of the applied films. Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and different triethoxysilanes (R-TES) wer…

For the assignment of 13 C resonance for C2, C3, and C5 of cellulose III I, 13 C-enriched celluloses were biosynthesized by Acetobacter xylinum ( A. xylinum ) ATCC10245 in the culture medium containing d -(2- 13 C), d -(3- 13 C), or d -(5- 13 C)glucose. After the 13 C-enriched celluloses and Cladophora cellulose were…

The δ form, one of various crystalline forms of syndiotactic polystyrene (sPS), is a complex between sPS and solvent molecules. This crystalline form shows a solvent exchange between the originally absorbed solvent B and the newly supplied solvent A when the δ form sample was exposed to the solvent A atmosphere. We ha…

We investigate electronic transport properties of the squashed armchair carbon nanotubes, using tight-binding molecular dynamics and the Green's function method. We demonstrate a metal-to-semiconductor transition while squashing the nanotubes and a general mechanism for such a transition. It is the distinction of the…

Phenomenological theory of superradiation from crystals of high-spin molecules is suggested. We show that radiation friction can cause a superradiation pulse and investigate the role of magnetic anisotropy, external magnetic field and dipole-dipole interactions.
