Abstract The novel flame retardant tris(3,5‐dimethyl‐4‐diphenyl phenoxy phosphate)isocyanurate (TDPI) was synthesized from the reaction of diphenyl chlorophosphate and tris(3,5‐dimethyl‐4‐hydroxybenzyl)isocyanurate. The compound was characterized with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, mass s…
We study the properties of a solid-solid close-packed to body-centered tetragonal transition in a colloidal suspension via fluorescence confocal laser scanning microscopy, in three dimensions and in real space. This structural transformation is driven by a subtle competition between gravitational and electric dipolar…
Abstract Ethylene–propylene–diene rubber (EPDM)/montmorillonite (MMT) composites were prepared through a melt process, and three kinds of surfactants with different ammonium cations were used to modify MMT and affect the morphology of the composites. The morphology of the composites depended on the alkyl ammonium salt…
A novel synthesis route for mesoporous silicates using anionic surfactants has been recently reported. It was advanced that materials synthesized using anionic surfactants and aminosilane groups as co-structure directing agents led to the synthesis of highly ordered, novel mesoporous materials with unprecedented struc…
Highly porous and nano‐structured electrodes for low‐temperature solid oxide fuel cells have been fabricated using a combustion chemical vapor deposition process. The composite electrodes consist of small grains, about 50 nm as shown in the Figure, have extremely high surface area, low interfacial polarization resista…
Abstract Natural rubber (NR), polyurethane rubber (PUR), and NR/PUR‐based nanocomposites were produced from the related latices by adding a pristine synthetic layered silicate (LS; sodium fluorohectorite) in 10 parts per hundred parts rubber (phr). The dispersion of the LS latices in the composite was studied by X‐ray…
The oscillating magnetic interlayer coupling of Fe over spacer layers consisting of Cu$_{x}$Pd$_{1-x}$ alloys is investigated by first principles density functional theory. The amplitude, period and phase of the coupling, as well as the disorder-induced decay, are analyzed in detail and the consistency to the Ruderman…
A survey is presented of various aspects of the interaction of charged particles with solids. In the framework of many-body perturbation theory, we study the nonlinear interaction of charged particles with a free gas of interacting electrons; in particular, nonlinear corrections to the stopping power are analyzed, and…
We have studied transport properties of Nb/Al/AlOx/Nb tunnel junctions with ultrathin aluminum oxide layers formed by (i) thermal oxidation and (ii) plasma oxidation, before and after rapid thermal post-annealing of the completed structures at temperatures up to 550 deg C. Post-annealing at temperatures above 300 deg…
Abstract The positive temperature coefficient (PTC) behavior of polymers having a high melting temperature, such as nylon, polyvinylidene fluoride, polyester, and polyacetal, was investigated. Carbon black and nickel powder were used to investigate the influence of their conductive fillers on PTC intensity. The polyme…
A scheme within density functional theory is proposed that provides a practical way to generalize to unrestricted geometries the method applied with some success to layered geometries [H. Rydberg, et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 126402 (2003)]. It includes van der Waals forces in a seamless fashion. By expansion to secon…
Hexagonal to cubic phase transformation is studied in focused ion beam assisted Ga+-implanted GaN nanowires. Optical photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence studies along with high-resolution transmission electron microscopic structural studies are performed to confirm the phase transformation. In one possibility, s…
The role of the tunneling mechanisms in metal-disordered layer-semiconductor structure under spin injection at the interface is investigated. The non-ideal metal-semiconductor structure as prepared by ionized cluster beam deposition is considered, and it is shown that the depletion region of the semiconductor can be t…
Composites consisting of individual, or bundles of single‐walled, exfoliated nanotubes in a highly viscous polymer matrix (see Figure) are described. The nanotubes and polymer are made compatible using surfactant molecules, hence avoiding the need for direct attraction between the nanotubes and the matrix. The resulti…
A simple process of solvent evaporation is shown to produce highly ordered arrays of cylindrical microdomains in block copolymers with long‐range lateral order (see Figure). Solvent evaporation in thin films is unidirectional, producing a self‐assembly directed normal to the film surface, akin to a zone refinement. Fu…
Abstract Thermoplastic polyamide elastomers were obtained by polymerization of aminobenzoyl‐substituted telechelics derived from poly(tetrahydrofuran)‐diols (number‐average molecular weight: 1400 or 2000 g mol −1 ) with several diacid dichlorides (terephthaloyl dichloride, 4,4′‐biphenyldicarbonyl dichloride, or 2,6‐na…
Abstract CdS nanobelts were successfully synthesized by rapidly evaporating CdS nanoparticles. The nanobelts are single crystals with a hexagonal structure growing along the [001] direction. Photoluminescence measurement shows that the nanobelts have two emission bands around 517 and 735 nm, which should come from the…
Abstract The fracture behavior and deformation mechanisms of polypropylene modified by elastomeric metallocene‐catalyzed polyolefin blends were investigated under both static and dynamic loading conditions. The fracture toughness was evaluated with the J integral approach. The development of damage mechanisms was stud…
New ferrocenyl Schiff-base polychlorotriphenylmethyl radicals have been synthesized and characterized. The imino group of one such radical undergoes an irreversible trans to cis structural isomerization induced by light. Such photoinduced isomerization has been monitored by UV/Vis and ESR spectroscopy and also monitor…
TlGaSe 2 layered crystals are studied through dark electrical conductivity, Hall mobility, space-charge limited current and illumination- and temperature-dependent photoconductivity in the temperature ranges 120–350 K, 220–350 K, 260–350 K and 120–350 K, respectively. The Hall effect measurements revealed the extrinsi…
