Abstract We examine some of the structural aspects that influence the mesomorphic behavior of liquid‐crystalline dimeric epoxy resins with imine groups in the mesogens. We synthesized two new series of monomers and compared them with previously synthesized monomers. Compared with previously studied series, the imine g…

We have investigated the electrical transport properties through crossed nanotube junction between two metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes. Depending on the temperature range, the crossed junction exhibits different behaviors. At high temperatures, the crossed junction acts as a tunneling junction and its conducta…

Thick (1–14 μm) films of ferrimagnetic barium hexaferrite (BaFe12O19 or BaM) having the c-axis ([0001]) in the film plane were deposited by pulsed laser deposition onto a-plane (112¯0) sapphire (Al2O3) substrates, and were found to have a (101¯0) orientation. Torque and magnetization measurements show these films are…

The Young’s modulus and helium gas permeability of vapor-deposited poly(4,4′-oxydiphenylenepyromellitimide) were measured at cryogenic and elevated temperatures (10–573 K). The Young’s modulus decreased with increasing temperature from 5.5 GPa at 10 K to 1.8 GPa at 573 K. The temperature dependency of the permeability…

Laser annealing has been employed to decompose half-metallic CrO2 into insulating Cr2O3 in air ambient. While both Cr2O3 and CrO2 are present, the relative fraction of each phase was controlled by changing the duration and power of laser irradiation. Glancing angle x-ray diffraction and micro-Raman scattering were use…

Pd particles were inserted into polythiophene (PT) films and studied for the activity for the hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in acid media. In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was employed for the characterization of the Pd particles and the results confirmed that they po…

[reaction: see text] Thiol-disulfide exchange can be used to prepare multivalent conjugates of a small molecule or octapeptide displayed on dendrimers based on melamine. Exchange of four or eight thiopyridyl groups by captopril occurs at room temperature in methanol almost quantitatively. Exchange using the peptide re…

Electromigration (EM) reliability was investigated for Cu/porous low k interconnects. The porous low k dielectric was a methylsilsesquioxane (MSQ) based spin-on organosilicate material with k of 2.2. The activation energy for EM failure was found to be about 0.9 eV for Cu/porous MSQ between 208 and 367 °C, which is co…

The switching current profiles of ferroelectric Pt/Pb(Zr0.4Ti0.6)O3/Pt capacitors were investigated after high-temperature baking to elucidate the mechanisms for retention loss. In the same-state retention, a decrease in the peak value of switching current and increase in the switching time were observed. These change…
