We present a review of some results concerning electronic transport properties of quasicrystals. After a short introduction to the basic concepts of quasiperiodicity, we consider the experimental transport properties of electrical conductivity with particular focus on the effect of temperature, magnetic field, and def…

A model is proposed to describe all experimental results on electrical aging of cables reported in Part 1. It is based on simple thermodynamics concepts in the Eyring theory, includes the concept of submicrocavity formation proposed by Zhurkov, and supposes that the first step in electrical aging is essentially a mole…

The evaporation of silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics during sintering has been studied by thermogravimetry in a graphite furnace filled with argon. The SiC powder compacts contained 7.5 wt% eutectic composition of Y 2 O 3 –Al 2 O 3 to promote liquid‐phase sintering. A weight loss of 1–11 wt% was observed during sintering…

Polycrystalline boron nitride (BN) films are synthesized using BCl 3 and N 2 as source gases, by plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition. BN films consist of nanocrystalline grains of 3 nm in size. The energy gap is estimated to be 6.0 eV from ultraviolet-visible optical transmission measurement. The electrical resi…

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) have several unique characteristics, including their Young's modulus-temperature relations, shape memory effects, and damping characteristics. The Young's modulus of the high-temperature austenite of SMAs is about three to four times as large as that of low-temperature martensite. Therefore,…

Unidirectional elongation of magnetic field sensitive polymer gels, called ferrogels, have been studied. In ferrogels, finely distributed colloidal particles having superparamagnetic behavior are incorporated into a swollen network. These particles couple the shape of the gel to the nonuniform magnetic field. Shape di…

In its physiological solid state, type I collagen serves as a host for many types of cells. Only the molecules on fiber surface are available for interaction. In this interfacial environment, the conformation of a cell binding domain can be expected to fluctuate between the collagen fold and a distinctive non-collagen…

A method to fabricate one dimensional nanoscale composite based on coating of carbon nanotube with metal is proposed and demonstrated in this letter. Carbon nanotubes have been coated with a layer of nickel by electroless plating. It was found that the nickel coating had a tendency to form as nanoparticles on the surf…
