We investigate functional capabilities of large arrays of gold and silver nanorods as elements of plasmonic devices. The samples were fabricated by electron beam lithography and lift-off techniques on glass substrates. The areas patterned by the nanorods or other nanoparticles can be large, with dimensions of up to ab…

Rich polymorphism has been found in a new series of lactic acid derivatives. The length of a non‐chiral n‐alkyl chain plays an important role in changing the sequence and temperature range of phases. Except for one homologue with the shortest chain, all compounds exhibit a rather wide antiferroelectric chiral smectic…

Abstract The kinetics of interaction of benzotriazole (BTAH) with the surface of copper were studied using an electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQMB) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Upon injecting BTAH into the electrolyte, three regions appear in the time response of the microbalance. Reg…

The critical-dimension scanning electron microscope (CD-SEM) is an essential tool for semiconductor fabrication process control because of its high resolution and high precision. However, in ArF lithography, the CD of resist changes during CD-SEM measurement due to shrinkage caused by the electron beam irradiation. Th…

The fluorescence of CdSe/ZnS nanorods in liquid-crystal and anisotropic polymer composites is studied. A high degree of the fluorescence anisotropy is shown. It is found that a solubilizer strongly affects the CdSe/ZnS orientation, which opens new possibilities for creating electrically controlled liquid-crystal compo…

The lattice vibrations of a periodic silicon crystal are simulated by a molecular dynamics simulation. The history of atomic displacements and velocities obtained is used to compute the amplitudes of all phonon modes supported by the lattice. The phonon amplitude autocorrelation coefficients are found to decay exponen…

Theory-inspired design of organic electro-optic materials is explored for three classes of materials: (1) chromophore/polymer composites; (2) chromophores covalently incorporated into polymers, dendrimers, and dendronized polymers; and (3) chromophores doped into chromophore-containing host materials. Correlated quant…

Urea fertilizer is a major source of nitrogen, which is one of the essential nutrients for plant growth. Due to its uncontrollable release, this chemical can be wasted easily by leaching and volatilization that can adversely cause the contamination to the environment. In this work, a controlled-release material for ur…

CaMnO 3 systems are known to exhibit excellent thermoelectric (TE) performance at high temperature in air and are, therefore, good candidates for the n-type legs of TE oxide devices. In previous studies, however, several CaMnO 3 system legs have fractured easily after the power generation test. The fractures were prob…

The specific heat of a liquid varies as its structure and molecular vibrational frequencies vary with the temperature. We report the magnitude of the structural or configurational part C(p,conf) for five molecular liquids by measuring their dynamic and the apparent specific heats, and find that the unrelaxed or vibrat…

Titanium oxide thin films were prepared by pulsed-laser deposition on LaAlO3 single crystal substrate at 700 °C. Pure anatase films are obtained at high oxygen pressure (10−1 mbar), while the rutile phase is evidenced at low oxygen pressure (10−5 mbar) despite a large oxygen deficiency (O/Ti=1.75). From asymmetric x-r…
