Abstract A polycarbazole–gold nanocomposite is synthesized based on two polymerization techniques, i.e., emulsion and interfacial using aqueous gold chloride and non‐aqueous carbazole monomer solutions. Use of gold chloride as an oxidant for carbazole not only provides a new chemical synthesis for polycarbazole conduc…

We present the design and measurement of broadband, volumetric negative-permeability and negative-refractive-index (NRI) media. Both of these media are fabricated using standard printed-circuit-board techniques and operate at X-band frequencies. The S-parameters of four-cell slabs of the negative-permeability and NRI…

Ba 0.8 Sr 0.2 Co 0.8 Fe 0.2 O 3-δ exists as a single cubic phase at 1000 °C in air. Upon slow cooling, it transforms, between 900 and 700 °C, to a mixture of cubic, hexagonal, and rhombohedral phases, as evidenced by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The reversible phase change is accompanied by…

B3LYP DFT study revealed that the planar tetracoordinate carbon (ptC) molecules, C 2 Al 4 E 8 (E = CH 3, NH 2, and OH), could be condensed to one-dimensional molecular chains containing planar or quasi-planar C 2 Al 4 units by eliminating CH 4, NH 3, and H 2 O molecules. Natural bond orbital analyses indicate that the…

Abstract This manuscript studies the formation of nanopatterns onto PET films under different experimental conditions. Homogeneous patterns with randomly distributed bumps or nanofibrils were observed depending on the plasma parameters. The influence of the power, oxygen pressure and electrode charge in the etching ra…

Based on the earlier revealed hidden pseudo Jahn-Teller effect which essentially involves excited electronic states we show that, with extension to solids, polyatomic systems with half-filled degenerate shells, e(2) or t(3), form a novel (practically inexhaustible) class of molecular and solid state materials with cor…

Look both ways: Coordination bonding of verdazyl radicals to diamagnetic metal ions dramatically modifies the crystal packing of the electronic spin bearers. The face-to-face positioning of two radicals leads to a magnetic behavior that is more relevant to a S=0 to S=1 spin-transition phenomenon than to the usual exch…

Isolated, infinitely long multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) interacting with electromagnetic waves in the microwave and far-infrared frequency regime are analyzed using a semi-classical approach. An expression for the bulk effective conductivity of MWCNTs is obtained, valid up to THz frequencies. The influence of th…

It is experimentally verified that a two-dimensional planar focusing antenna based on gradient-index metamaterials has a similar performance as that of its parabolic counterpart. The antenna is designed using quasi-conformal transformation optics, and is realized with non-resonant I-shaped metamaterial unit cells. It…

With the appropriate approximation, we have formulated the equation of multibubble motion for two cases: a filament of bubbles and a small spherical cluster of bubbles. Our results have yielded a collective mode of bubble motion in which individual bubbles of similar size expand and compress almost simultaneously. Eac…
