In this paper we calculated the elastic constants of $γCe$. The calculations were performed self-consistently using the full potential augmented plane wave plus local orbital (FP-APW+lo) method. We used the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) to calculate the exchange-correlation energy. The elastic constants wer…

Transient responses of the electronic excitation and coherent soft phonon are investigated both above and below the ferroelectric phase transition temperature ${T}_{c}$ in ${\mathrm{Pb}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{x}\mathrm{Te}$ by using an optical pump-probe technique. The coherent soft mode shows large redshif…

We propose a mean-field model to explore the equilibrium coupling between micelle aggregation and lattice choice in neutral copolymer and selective solvent mixtures. We find both thermotropic and lyotropic transitions from face-centered cubic to body-centered cubic ordered phases of spherical micelles, in agreement wi…

Multiwalled boron carbonitride (BCN) nanotubes with two different structures were synthesized via thermal chemical vapor deposition; one has 10% C atoms homogeneously doped into BN nanotubes (B0.45C0.1N0.45 NTs), and the other has BN layers sheathed with 5-nm-thick C outerlayers (BN-C NTs). The electronic structures o…

Abstract Polyamides having various amounts of maleimide (PA‐MI) and furan (PA‐F) pendent groups, respectively, as well as their cross‐linked polymers (PA‐MI/PA‐F) were prepared. PA‐MI/PA‐F cross‐linked polymers showed thermally reversible cross‐linking behavior via Diels‐Alder (DA) and retro‐DA reactions. Cross‐linked…

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have shown great promise as sensing elements in nanoelectromechanical sensors. In this review paper, we discuss the electrical, mechanical, and electromechanical properties of CNTs that are used in such applications. This investigation indicates which nanotube properties should be carefully con…

The electronic behavior of the chalcogenide material used in phase-change memory (PCM) plays a key role in defining the operation voltages and times of the memory cell. In particular, the threshold voltage for electronic switching of the amorphous chalcogenide determines the boundary between programming and readout op…

This article presents a mechanistic study on the galvanic replacement reaction between 11- and 14-nm multiply twinned particles (MTPs) of Ag and HAuCl4 in chloroform. We monitored both morphological and spectral changes as the molar ratio of HAuCl4 to Ag was increased. The details of reaction were different from previ…

We report the synthesis of zeolite-like carbon materials that exhibit well-resolved powder XRD patterns and very high surface area. The zeolite-like carbons are prepared via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at 800 or 850 degrees C using zeolite beta as solid template and acetonitrile as carbon precursor. The zeolite-li…

Existing defect models for In(2)O(3) and ZnO are inconclusive about the origin of conductivity, nonstoichiometry, and coloration. We apply systematic corrections to first-principles calculated formation energies Delta H, and validate our theoretical defect model against measured defect and carrier densities. We find t…
