o-terphenyl is one of the organic liquids in which a fast mode of crystal growth is activated near the glass transition temperature T(g) and continues deep in the glassy state. This growth mode, termed glass-crystal (GC), is not limited by molecular diffusion in the bulk liquid, in contrast to the diffusion-controlled…

Here we report synthesis of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) by evaporation of bulk CdSe using the solvated metal atom dispersion method (SMAD), followed by reflux in toluene and in t -butyltoluene (TBT). The as-prepared SMAD product exhibits broad photoluminescence spectra (PL), but upon reflux in toluene or t -butyltoluene,…

The exchange-coupling constants in dinuclear 1,1-azidonickel(II) complexes and in one tetranuclear complex have been analyzed by using electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory. The calculated J values show a correlation with the Ni-N-Ni angle; however, the available experimental data do not…

Relaxation enthalpies in the vicinity of glass transitions were recorded on the basis of the heat capacity curves measured in nine glass-forming molecular liquids and solutions in the well defined cooling and subsequent heating cycles. It is observed that enthalpy hysteresis in the cooling/heating cycles is less signi…

Abstract Debye temperatures and Grueneisen parameters of chain TlSe and TlInSe 2 were calculated using our earlier obtained ab‐initio results on phonon band structure and existed experimental data on thermal expansion coefficient. For both compounds, the values of heat capacity at constant volume (C v ) were found to…

Abstract In this article, epoxidized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are used to modify current epoxy resins. The produced epoxy groups on the nanotube surface significantly enriched nanotube chemistry and made them soluble in the organic solvents. Atomic force microscopy characterization indicated that epoxidized nanotubes w…

A new tuning strategy for mirror-less liquid crystals laser is presented. A three layer cell is prepared with two cholesteric layers sandwiching a layer containing an isotropic mixture of a photoluminescent dye. One of the chiral layers contains a wide band gap material while the second layer consists of a series of s…

Branched polyesters composed of poly(L-lactide)s (PLLAs) and 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid (DHCA) were obtained by the thermal melt-polycondensation of 3,4-diacetoxycinnamic acid (DACA)-terminally conjugated PLLAs (DACA-PLLAs). The chemical structures of the DHCA/PLLA polyesters were confirmed by FT-IR and (1)H NMR measu…

We examine the effects of void morphology and critical current density (jc) on the electromigration failure distributions of Cu/low-kdual-damascene vias. Cu dual-damascene vias exhibit multiple modes of electromigration-induced voiding, and reliability is strongly dependent on the morphology of voids. We have develope…
