Triblock copolymers in a solvent selective for their middle blocks provide the basis for the formation of novel physical networks in which cross-links are formed by self-assembled domains of the end blocks. Triblock copolymers of poly(styrene)−poly(ethylene butylene)−poly(styrene) (SEBS) dissolved in oil constitute su…
The pair annihilation of straight line defects with strength +/-1/2 in bulk nematic systems is studied numerically, considering a full coupling of orientational degrees of freedom and hydrodynamics. This work is based on the generalization of the Ericksen-Leslie theory to the tensor order parameter as proposed by Qian…
In this study, the feasibility of building a database of theoretical atomic deformation density parameters applicable to the construction of the densities of biomacromolecules and to the interpretation of their X-ray diffraction data is discussed. The procedure described involves generation of valence-only structure f…
The title anion was synthesized by oxidation of nido-Ge94- with Ph3P or Ph3As in ethylenediamine solution. It was structurally characterized in the compound (Rb-2,2,2-crypt)6[Ge9=Ge9=Ge9].3en (2,2,2-crypt = 4,7,13,16,21,24-hexaoxa-1,10-diazabicyclo[8.8.8]hexacosane) crystallized from the solution. The anion is a linea…
$(\mathrm{TMTTF}{)}_{2}{\mathrm{AsF}}_{6}$ undergoes two phase transitions upon cooling from 300 K. At ${T}_{\mathrm{CO}}=103 \mathrm{K}$ a charge ordering (CO) occurs, and at ${T}_{\mathrm{SP}}(B=9 \mathrm{T})=11 \mathrm{K}$ the material undergoes a spin-Peierls transition. Within the intermediate, CO phase, the char…
The room-temperature syntheses and single-crystal structures of C(4)N(2)H(12).NH(4)Cl(3).H(2)O and C(6)N(2)H(14).NH(4)Cl(3) are reported. These novel molecular perovskites contain vertex-sharing octahedral (NH(4))Cl(6) arrays which replicate the octahedral packing in the cubic (SrTiO(3)) and 2-H hexagonal (BaNiO(3)) p…
Difference in density of states for the spin's majority and minority bands in a ferromagnet changes the electrostatic potential along the domains, introducing the discontinuities of the potential at domain boundaries. The value of discontinuity oscillates with number of domains. Discontinuity depends on the positions…
The decomposition and the reformation of the (Bi,Pb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+d (?Bi,Pb(2223)?) phase have been investigated in-situ by means of High-Temperature Neutron Diffraction, both in sintered bulk samples and in Ag-sheathed monofilamentary tapes. Several decomposition experiments were performed at various temperatures and…
We analyze fulleride superconductivity at experimental doping levels, treating the electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions on an equal footing, and establish the existence of novel physics which helps explain the unusually high superconducting transition temperatures in these systems. The Jahn-Teller phonon…
Computer simulations of simple model systems for liquid crystals are briefly reviewed, with special emphasis on systems of ellipsoids. First, we give an overview over some of the most commonly studied systems (ellipsoids, Gay-Berne particles, spherocylinders). Then we discuss the structure of the nematic phase in the…
By studying the Hall effect in a series of low resistivity Ga1-xMnxAs samples, accurate values for the hole density p, Mn concentration x, and Curie temperature Tc are obtained over the range 0.015=
The synthesis of a novel battery electrode architecture based on an ordered arrangement of interconnected macropores is reported; the mesoporous vanadium oxide electrode is designed to have a hierarchical architecture, which is beneficial for mass transport and should reduce polarization accordingly.
Structural changes during annealing of high-density amorphous ice were studied with both neutron and x-ray diffraction. The first diffraction peak was followed from the high- to the low-density amorphous form. Changes were observed to occur through a series of intermediate forms that appear to be metastable at each an…
In materials science, a dynamic property sensitive to an environmental change (heat, light, electric current, pH, and other chemical or physical changes) is indispensable for intelligent materials. Such organic materials, however, are very limited even in conventional polymers. This paper clearly demonstrates that, re…
As the lateral dimension of conductors approaches the mesoscopic regime, deviations of electric resistivity from that of bulk material are observed. Size effects come into play as the lateral dimension of the wire is in the range of the mean free path of the conduction electrons and below. In order to probe the size e…
The fluorescence behavior of single CdSe(ZnS) core-shell nanocrystal (NC) quantum dots is dramatically affected by electromagnetic interactions with a rough metal film. Observed changes include a fivefold increase in the observed fluorescence intensity of single NCs, a striking reduction in their fluorescence blinking…
Water-soluble luminescent CdS quantum dots (QDs) capped by polyphosphate, L-cysteine, and thioglycerol were synthesized in aqueous solution. The ligands were found to have a profound effect on the luminesence response of CdS QDs to physiologically important metal cations. Polyphosphate-capped CdS QDs were sensitive to…
The method of direct current hot-cathode plasma chemical vapour deposition has been established. A long-time stable glow discharge at large discharge current and high gas pressure has been achieved by using a hot cathode in the temperature range from 1100°C to 1500°C and nonsymmetrical configuration of the poles, in w…
We have performed a Mössbauer spectral analysis of nanocrystalline metastable P 6/ mmm SmTi(Fe 1−x Co x ) 9 , correlated with structural transformation towards its equilibrium derivative I 4/ mmm SmTi(Fe 1−x Co x ) 11 . The Rietveld analysis shows that the 3g site is fully occupied, while the 6ℓ occupation is limited…
We investigate the formation dynamics of self-assembled polyelectrolyte multilayers on glass substrates by in situ and ex situ second harmonic generation (SHG) measurements and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The time dependence of the SHG signal during the adsorption process is attributed to a time dependent surface p…
