An overview is presented of size-selective photoetching experiments on nanocrystalline semiconductor particles. Four different compounds (CdS, ZnS, PbS, and ZnO) have been prepared by standard colloid−chemical synthetic methods. For CdS, the initial mean radius of 35 Å could be gradually decreased to 7.5 Å by size-sel…

We introduce a kinetic model of coarsening of transient polymer networks during the intermediate stages of phase separation in polymer systems. The model explicitly takes into account the effect of the connectivity of polymer chains. We show that during the intermediate stages the size of the droplet grows according t…

This paper focuses attention on the intrazeolite anchoring of ruthenium carbonyl clusters and their catalytic performances. The synthesis involves the adsorption of metal carbonyl species or metal ion exchange into zeolite cages followed by reductive carbonylation under a mixed CO and H 2 atmosphere. The characterizat…

The magnetization of Ni_{1-x}Mo_{x} single crystals with x=4,6,8 and 10 % by weight have been measured at 4.2K using a vibrating sample magnetometer and a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID). The magnetization of the alloy at these low concentrations and at 0 K have been theoretically determined by usi…

The well-known and general “compressibility theorem” for pure substances relates κT =−(∂ ln V/∂p)N,T to a spatial integral involving the pair correlation function g(2). The isochoric inherent structure formalism for condensed phases separates g(2) into two fundamentally distinct contributions: a generally anharmonic v…

The exact mean-field phase behavior of the Semenov–Vasilenko model for rod-coil diblock copolymers is studied by applying self-consistent field techniques. The behavior depends on three quantities: the rod/coil immiscibility χN, the coil volume fraction f, and the ratio ν of the characteristic coil to rod dimensions.…

Solid phase epitaxial growth of ion beam-amorphized α-quartz has been studied by means of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry in channeling geometry. α-quartz single crystals were irradiated with Cs+ and Xe+ ions and annealed in air or in vacuum at 500–900 °C. Complete epitaxial regrowth has been observed in the Cs…

Fatigue phenomena occurring in Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 ferroelectric thin-film capacitors (FECAP) with Pt electrodes are studied by means of conduction measurements in the cold-field-emission (tunneling) regime. We have determined that conduction in virgin FECAPs is controlled by tunneling at temperatures 100–140 K and electri…

Based upon kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of crystallization in a simple polymer model we present a new picture of the mechanism by which the thickness of lamellar polymer crystals is constrained to a value close to the minimum thermodynamically stable thickness. This description contrasts with those given by the two…

We observed the emission of correlated electron pairs from the valence band of solids following the absorption of single photons in the vacuum ultraviolet range. Applying a time-of-flight technique, we measured the energy distributions of correlated electron pairs emitted from clean Cu(001) and Ni(001) crystals. Signi…

We demonstrate that a staggered parametric ac driving term can support stable progressive motion of a soliton in a Toda lattice with friction, while an unstaggered drivng force cannot. A physical context of the model is that of a chain of anharmonically coupled particles adsorbed on a solid surface of a finite size. T…

Nano-crystalline diamond is prepared with a unique method in which a graphite target is etched by a high-power pulsed laser in water. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high resolution electron microscopy (HREM) indicate nano-crystalline diamond is obtained, having a hexagonal lattice or cubic lattice.

Composites were made from rubberwood in the form of fibers (RWF) and powder (RWP) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The RWP–HDPE composites showed higher tensile strength than those of the fibers. The inferior properties of the RWF-filled composites were believed to be attributed to the agglomeration of the fibers…
