A simple thermodynamic model for determining the wetting free energy of a small, sessile drop spreading on a solid surface has been derived by assuming that the process can be treated as adsorption. According to the model, free energies are expected to be small for large contact angles and increase exponentially as co…

High-speed melt spinning of racemate polylactide (r-PLA), which is a blend of equal amounts of poly(l-lactide) and poly(d-lactide) molecules, was performed up to the take-up velocity of 7.5 km/min. In the fiber structure analysis, particular attention was paid to the formation of stereocomplex crystals, because this c…

The effect of some metal ions (Fe2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, Pb2+) upon the fluorescent intensity of a first generation polyamidoamine dendrimer with a peripheral 4-dimethylaminoethylamine-1,8-naphthalimide group was investigated. The presence of metal ions was found to evoke a photoinduced electron transfer leading to an enhance…

A low-temperature, nonaqueous synthesis approach is described that produces a series of gallium sulfide and polysulfide three-dimensional superlattices from binary Ga-S and ternary Zn-Ga-S supertetrahedral clusters. The diversity of superlattices is achieved by modifying the cluster size, the cluster composition, and…

A spatially ordered quantum dot array of cationic indium nanoclusters has been synthesized in a single crystal of zeolite X. A single crystal of fully dehydrated and fully indium-exchanged zeolite X (ca. In 87 Si 100 Al 92 O 384, In 87 −X) was exposed to 0.5 atm of H 2 S for 12 h at 673 K. After it was evacuated at te…

We report an enhancement of the electron spin relaxation time (T1) in a (110) InAs/GaSb superlattice by more than an order of magnitude (25 times) relative to the corresponding (001) structure. The spin dynamics were measured using polarization sensitive pump probe techniques and a mid-infrared, subpicosecond PPLN OPO…

We report on the generation of coherent phonon polaritons in ZnTe, GaP and LiTaO$_{3}$ using ultrafast optical pulses. These polaritons are coupled modes consisting of mostly far-infrared radiation and a small phonon component, which are excited through nonlinear optical processes involving the Raman and the second-or…

This study focuses on luminescent materials based on the antenna effect and prepared by the sol−gel method. These materials are composed of a Eu(III) complex (luminescence center) entrapped in a xerogel matrix. Luminescence properties of the lanthanide-based emitting materials depend on the efficiency of energy transf…

The view that the large red shifts seen in the UV-visible absorption bands of peripherally crowded nonplanar porphyrins are the result of nonplanar deformations of the macrocycle has recently been challenged by the suggestion that the red shifts arise from substituent-induced changes in the macrocycle bond lengths and…

The (1x1) terminated (0001)-Zn surface of wurtzite ZnO was investigated with scanning tunneling microscopy. The surface is characterized by the presence of nanosized islands with a size-dependent shape and triangular holes with single-height, O-terminated step edges. It is proposed that the resulting overall decrease…
