A PbTiO3 epitaxial thin film was deposited at 150°C at a thickness of 430nm. The domain structure was composed of c domain and small amount of a domain. The DE hysteresis curve and piezoelectric strain curve were asymmetrical because the initial domain structure was stable and difficult to reverse perfectly with an ex…

Although silicon is a simple cubic crystal, it can be induced to have a piezoelectric response, by making pores in it and thus spoiling its symmetry. By etching a silicon wafer into porous material, we found that it responds to voltage applied to it, as well as to light. A porous shallow layer on the surface of the wa…

Abstract 4‐vinylpyridine monomer was mixed with organophilic montmorillonite (MMT) clay and polymerized in the presence of free‐radical initiator. MMT clay was rendered organophilic by means of ion‐exchanging sodium cations for low‐molecular‐weight quaternized poly(4‐vinylpyridine) (P4VP) homopolymer and diblock copol…

CdS nanowires of 10nm diameter, electrodeposited in porous alumina films, had shown a conductance bistability in the past [Appl. Phys. Lett. 76, 460 (2000)]. The conductance has a high (ON) and a low (OFF) state. In the ON state, different sets of nanowires display qualitatively different relation between the conducta…

The present study describes the synthesis of novel polypeptides containing O-phospho-L-threonine [Thr(PO(3)H(2))] and L-aspartic acid. Random copolypeptides copoly[Thr(PO(3)H(2))(X)Asp(Y)] (X:Y = 25:75, 50:50, 75:25), were conventionally prepared by copolymerization of Thr(PO(3)Ph(2)) N-carboxyanhydride (NCA) and Asp(…

Abstract FT‐IR and FT‐Raman spectra of sulfanilic acid were recorded and analysed. Surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectrum was recorded on a silver electrode surface. Potential dependence of SERS profile was studied. The profile was most prominent at an electrode potential of −1.2 V. The molecule was adsorbe…

Abstract Summary: Branched poly(arylene ether)s were prepared in an oligomeric A 2 + B 3 polymerization of phenol endcapped telechelic poly(arylene ether sulfone) oligomers as A 2 and TFPPO as trifunctional monomer B 3 . The molar mass of the A 2 oligomer significantly influenced the onset of gelation and the DB. A hi…

Abstract Summary: The polymerization features of the novel stabilizer‐free dispersion copolymerization of MAn and VAc were studied. It was found that the dispersion copolymerization of MAn/VAc is a fairly rapid process, which starts from a slow solution polymerization (below 10% conversion, Stage I) and follows a dras…

An ellipsometric study of the interface between a thermotropic liquid crystal and water near the nematic-isotropic phase transition of the liquid crystal is presented. At temperatures above the transition, a nematic wetting layer appears at the interface if the water phase contains a surfactant inducing a homeotropic…

Community dynamics of epiphytic diatoms were studied for 3 years in a chronically and an episodically acidified tributary of Buck Creek, Adirondacks. Both streams experienced pulses of acidity during hydrologic events but these pulses were more pronounced in the episodically acidified stream, where pH decreased over t…

We perform the ab initio calculations of the absorption and optical magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra for the Co-doped anatase and rutile ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}$ systems. The obtained MCD spectra correlate well with the absorption spectra, and both are in agreement with the experimental measurements, indicating t…
